It isn't much of a surprise, hearing this.

It is only a little like being cornered, backed in and caught. Things have changed. Louis hadn't expected the end of his own story to become a reveal, to exonerate Lestat, to break him from Armand. There had been something misaligned. Louis had known that. He'd known Daniel would find it.

He had thought it was a fracture, something that would realign. The scope of it—

No.

Louis puts contemplation of it away.

Swerves anyway, direct, asks, "Why didn't you call me, not them?"

Did Daniel think he wouldn't have come? That Louis wouldn't have helped him?
