"We'd been drinking," Louis offers, prim for a split second before he breaks into a grin.
No, it wasn't the alcohol.
It had just been the giddy high of their connection, and the electric, adrenaline of anticipation. Of knowing that they could speak to each other, that Louis could say all the things he'd kept locked up in his chest and Daniel would hear him, understand him. Would ask questions, listen when Louis answered.
All things Daniel must know, so Louis says none of them. Instead:
"You wanna come see New Orleans with us after all this?"
All this spanning anywhere from "the end of the book tour" to "the end of this war." Us operating on the foregone conclusion that Lestat would agree to accomapny them.
New Orleans was a likely place for angry vampires to look. Louis knows it. The tour at least puts them on the move, keeps Louis out of sight.
