Laito being the Mad Hatter is just *chef's kiss*
[awkward silence]
I think the reason the loumand relationship is so addictively fascinating to me is because it has so many facets and layers and so completely defies any single explanation or categorization, and unlike with s1 loustat the writers really don't make everything clear or hold your hand through any of it. Every time I think I've gotten a grip on it, so other scene or moment is just like, no. You don't get it. Try again.
Do they love each other? Yes. I mean no. I mean yes.
Did they love each other? No it was all it act. Yes it was real, but only for a short period. Yes, the whole time, but it was in a way that still had performative elements.
Did Armand control Louis's memories for selfish reasons or altruistic ones? Yes, he was scared of losing Louis's love. No, he was scared of Louis trying to kill himself again. Yes, he just couldn't handle being left for Lestat. No, he knew Louis might go back to Lestat and Louis said he didn't want that. No, he didn't love Louis he was just scared of being alone. Wait, no, he saw removing memories of all that pain as a way to make it up to Louis. No, he just didn't want to get caught. (Meanwhile, why do you even think he controlled Louis' memories on large scale? How consistent even is that with the rest of what we know of Armand's character? Do you know for sure?)
Did Louis love Armand? No, he was just rebounding. Yes, he actively pursued the relationship and initiated a lot of their first moments. Yes, he said he did, multiple times. No, because of his complicated relationship with speaking his love aloud we know he was lying. Yes, Madeleine could feel how much he loved him. No, he gave the whole "boring" speech, which were his true feelings. No, wait, that was something he instantly regretted.
