Lestat de Lioncourt and Claudia in “Unfinished Business”

Lestat de Lioncourt

How was college? Magna cum? Summa cum? Phi Beta Kappa?

I've read a lot of books. Started with Persia and Babylon, the old gods who longed for blood. A lot of it was popcorn, but a few old tomes. A Romanian tract on 'vampirs.' A strange, old Hungarian text, 'Masticatione Mortuorum,' the 'chewing dead.' I plan to leave for that part of the world as soon as I can.

So... quick stop home to do laundry before you fuck off for good.

A quick stop to pick up Louis.

Perused a few folklore anthologies, and now you're going to cross the ocean and take on a society of monsters.

If what I read is lies, then tell me what's true. [Lestat stares without answering and Claudia scoffs] Seven years and what's changed, other than you need a housekeeper?
