Would they ever hunt together, him and Daniel?

Someday. Louis has complicated thoughts on this too, spurred by the frenetic scraps of information that reach him. Daniel and Lestat, and all they do together. Louis, jealous.

And then: the extreme complication of being jealous of both of them at once.

Put aside now, letting amusement glow between them at Daniel's offered images, at the flirtation that follows.

I gotta fill the hours somehow, is mock-mournful. Otherwise it'd just be me in the dark, missing you.

An embellishment in return: Louis on the floor of the penthouse in Dubai, scattered books and newspapers bearing Daniel's words everywhere.

Can't help it if I gotta take drastic measures when their company ain't measuring up to yours.

Which is exaggerated but true. Lots of momentary diversions, none that compete. It's hard when the bar is Daniel Molloy, is Lestat de Lioncourt. Louis isn't bored yet, but the diversions thus far have been passing.

Of course, Louis kills them because they try to kill him first. But still.
