'Christ, Louis.' Exchanges while they sort things. 'Sure, you're owed an ambush,' we have fun here, joking about cornering him with the Talamasca recordings, and Daniel feels a brief, slightly hysterical bubble of almost-laughter threaten to overtake him as he thinks of what it'll look like. Louis and Daniel sitting there explaining a thing that happened in the past to Lestat. Daniel should put his laptop in front of him and hit record. Give him a notepad.

'Just tell me if you want to tap out, alright?'

It's not only Louis' story, but Louis was the one who ran out into the bright morning sun, and is volunteering to relive it again. He hopes it's therapeutic instead of harmful. When he gives the man a friendly squeeze to his shoulder as he walks into the living-room-foyer area connecting their web of rooms, it's both a comfort about the vegetarian lifestyle and support for what he's about to undertake.

"Takeout always gives me heartburn."

Flippant. He was aware they'd have to navigate around certain lifestyle differences, and has already decided to hard ignore it whenever possible. A moral crisis for Someday Daniel. Today Daniel is too busy to worry about all that.

"So." So!!! He looks at Louis, then Lestat.
