A laugh shook Lestat's shoulders, and he nodded. "Here we are, indeed." The blond leaned back enough to seek out Louis gaze, familiar green eyes that he always feared he could lose himself in for far too long. For now though he managed to stay grounded, or as grounded as he ever meant to be.
"I've spent the day in the sun, walking among people who do not seem to care what other sorts of beings walk amongst them. It's almost like being alive." Lestat, for the moment at least, was enthralled by it, the freedom of it, as if the shackles of limitation had been broken and nothing could hold him back any longer.
So for now at least, he was downright enchanted by it. "But it remains a cage, doesn't it? Gilded, but still, we have no way of leaving." And that eventually would chafe, but for now, Louis' presence alone was a balm enough to soothe that. "Then again, if I'm to be imprisoned, at least it's roomy and bright. And at least my beloved is here as well. There are far less appealing places to be."
