Daniel freezes like a rabbit realizing it's about to be eaten by a wolf, except, you know, he's an adult man (supernatural predator) facing down a much older adult man (supernatural predator) who is now openly crying. About some therapy shit that is beyond Daniel's capacity as a journalist, despite his keen insight.
But he knows how much Lestat cares about Louis. That has to be a start. He sits there for a moment, considers patting him on the shoulder or something. Doesn't. How awkward would that be.
"Be here." Quieter than before. "Just be here. This is new territory for both of you."
