Maybe he would be another way in which Armand punished Louis for the wreckage of their long companionship, punished as Daniel was punished for his role bringing it about.
"We should keep it at least until we leave the city," Louis proposes. "Things are more difficult in less populated areas. We'll have some distance from him."
Though what is really difficult for Armand, who walks in the sun?
