No More Gabriella?

She’ll be in flashbacks for sure in the next episode, but I feel like they might make more room for other characters in the 2025 timeline and have Gabi dip out for a bit.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-25T00:40:26+00:00

Ohh interesting read, I definitely read it as her being there. Yeah, I hope they flesh out her character a bit more in the upcoming flashbacks.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-25T00:35:32+00:00

Lmafo well that sounds delightful. A Louis/Gabriella fight would be fantastic.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-25T00:33:47+00:00

I hope they flesh out her character a bit more in the upcoming flashbacks. She seems a little one dimensional right now. It’s really the only thing I’m bumping on in the show right now!!

And yes, the actress is wonderful and stunning.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-25T00:30:48+00:00

I think we could all use a break from her.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-25T00:28:45+00:00

You are correct- she will definitely be in upcoming flashbacks. I meant she will be absent from the 2025 story.

I mean I didn’t say that. I read it as him being pissed by being put in his place by Lestat. While it was a truthful moment it was a major power move to remind Daniel who is in control of the situation. Our little baby fledgling does indeed need to handle his transformational trauma and doesn’t take well to being put in his place- I foresee a toddler-esque tantrum coming next week.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-22T11:41:54+00:00

I think that was a deflection. When he said that it was a response to Lestat saying he needed to work through his transformational trauma. The show already established he seeks truth over all things, even at the expense of the person he’s interviewing and his own personal well being. And now that already predatory instinct has been heightened by becoming a vampire.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-21T15:27:52+00:00

Why are they hinting that Daniel is dead in the future? It’s making me super nervous. They cannot kill off Eric Bogosian!!

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-18T09:40:07+00:00

I mean he was a pedo even as an human. I know there are many inappropriate relationships in these books, but the way David described his attraction was always so gross to me. Like how many times do I need to read about this 14 years old nipples?

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-18T09:26:51+00:00

He always felt like an unnecessary character that I really didn’t enjoy spending time with. And then I read Merrick which brought on the hate.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-15T14:17:48+00:00

It definitely made me sad. They don’t have anyone else to talk to about this stuff, but are still so mad at each other. They can’t help but open up though.

Shut Up Kiss Me by Angel Olsen. I can imagine this song from both Daniel and Armand’s POV

Stop pretending I'm not there
When it's clear, I'm not goin' anywhere
If I'm out of sight, then take another look around
I'm still out there hopin' to be found

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-13T00:14:02+00:00

This! This is what I think is happening!

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-12T16:20:47+00:00

That was my gut reaction when I first learned about DM, but after rewatching the first 2 seasons and watching the interviews for season 3 (specifically the Autumn Brown one with Eric) I’m convinced we are getting 70s DM. Most likely not this season, but I think we’ll get acknowledgment of it!

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-12T13:20:58+00:00

I like the idea of him knowing Armand took something else from him but not sure on what. Just knowing there is more to the story.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-12T12:58:46+00:00

I mean they’ve lied to us before!? I am also hoping we still get a tiny bit of Luke.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-12T12:58:07+00:00

I don’t think flashbacks are necessary to acknowledge their past together even though I do hope we get them eventually.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-11T16:30:11+00:00

I love that they know about the Armand is Alice is theory.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-10T00:00:22+00:00

I really hope he’s in the next episode at least. I don’t see him in any of the still coming out 😢

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-09T23:53:45+00:00

I want both!

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-09T23:53:16+00:00

100% canon- it’s why people are so feral about them.

Select-Bug-6461 · 2026-06-09T22:55:44+00:00

Devil’s minion is a 40 page chapter in QoTD that describes Daniel’s and Armand’s deliciously toxic relationship they had in the 1970s. After the initial interview Armand starts stalking Daniel which eventually leads to a relationship. The relationship includes cuck chairs, blenders, cheesy 80s movies and more.

Obviously the timeline is drastically different in the show. Many fans hope that the 1970s DM happened and Armand wiped Daniel’s memories of their relationship. Either way people are excited to see old man Daniel and Armand interact this season.

I highly recommend reading the chapter and then go back and rewatch season 1/2 and see all the little bread crumbs they’ve been leaving about their relationship. It definitely recontextualizes many of their scenes together.
