[The light doesn't bother Marshall as much as it normally would. He'd taken his resist-the-urge-to-eat-your-potential-friends potion earlier in the day and felt pretty good. To him sitting in the light was awesome.]

I always wondered if Lestat would have bothered turning Claudia if Louis hadn't seemed to feel so guilty. Turning a kid is really a stupid and cruel thing for a vampire to do though.

Yeah..he did some pretty dumb shit. I kinda liked that aspect of him though..it made him more human and relatable despite being a vampire. It showed that not all of them are complete monsters...

[Marshall totally catches all of that and chuckles.]
If you like that kind of thing though..hey, more power to you.
