[Armand has his misgivings about this interview business. It’s dangerous, not just for the mortal involved, but for Louis. And Armand himself, though he is not so concerned about that.
There are reasons vampires do not reveal themselves to humans. Not seriously, at least. To act like a monster on a stage, as he had for centuries, is one thing; mortal men and women enjoy their fictions and are more than willing to accept a play as an illusion. But to reveal the reality of vampires to a human…well, that was another thing entirely.
But this is what Louis wants and he cannot help but indulge him. Perhaps talking through his experiences will help him heal. It’s possible. And Armand can’t blame Louis for his interest in the mortal in question. He is beautiful, certainly, and thoroughly modern. There is a vulnerability about him, and yet he was fearless, determined to talk to monsters. To interview them. To try to understand them.
Armand can’t deny it’s intriguing.
And so he indulges Daniel, too, when the boy comes with his modern day music recordings and his six pack of beer. He offers a polite smile at his words.]

I don’t know Dylan either, I think.
