Great news: Lestat is pretty sure he's the most eye catching person in this venue as well, something that he has no plans to do anything about but bask in admiring ambiance while they share their little table some ways back from the stage. The performance is charming, and Lestat says something like, We saw this film, didn't we, Louis? It has Cary Grant, who he likes very much.
Which would be fine, until they both realise they didn't see that movie together, they saw none of the films of 1930s together, and Lestat remembers he had taken Antoinette, actually, and he had gifted her a new stole to make up for some argument earlier that same evening, which is not something he informs the table but maybe flickers across his expression before embarking on an abrupt change of subject.
At some point, he leaves with some willowy individual he'd chatted up at the bar to share a cigarette outside, and returns with the scent of nicotine in his feathery jacket and the trace scent of blood, pale skin flushed anew.
"They're fine," he says as he sits down. "Before you ask."
