Write it down for future interview fodder.

(A bespoke prosthetic, rosewood and gold. Rewarded after an evening of arguing, a slammed door, and Lestat begging his way back in. He treated her like trash, of course, and would have thrown her limp corpse into the bayou if it would have won him the things he truly wanted, but she took him back too easy, time and time again, to give up without necessary motive.)

Lestat selects one of the larger phones that settle better in his palm. When the Mormon bicyclist is permitted entry into the conversation and begins talking about some of its features, warranty, insurance, Lestat cuts him off to ask about what colours it comes in and subsequently learns about phone cases. Fortunately, everyone can multitask, the kid seems more relaxed about communicating through Daniel as a proxy, and Lestat lands on his selection fairly quickly, which is just solid holographic glitter.

The kid disappears to find the correct model in the backroom, and Lestat observes, "He is trying to figure out if we're related or fucking," and casts a toothy smile Daniel's way.

"Seeing as we are neither at this very moment, will you tell me why you are being kind to me?"
