A moment where perhaps Louis doesn't intend to let Daniel go. A tightening of his fingers around his hand, before Louis cedes his grip.

He has asked much of Daniel. If Daniel wishes to go, Louis will let him. None of this could have been so easy for him, even given the time that's passed since that week. The scant amount of time passed since they pieced all parts of it together themselves.

Daniel is allowed to extricate himself. He has done more than enough.

As Lestat straightens, Louis uses his now freed hand to touch his cheek. Thumb away some trace of tears.

"Heavy," is true, even if Louis says it with some measure of humor. "How are you?"
