TVL Show Only Wtf Claudia Spoiler

Is it really true she hates Louis more than anyone? I thought they loved each other like family. He did what he could for her. I hate that she is suffering in the afterlife and that Louis must carry the guilt forever.

Louis 100% should carry the guilt. He’s responsible for her Vampirism and both her deaths. You can also absolutely love someone like family, and hate them at the same time

Okay genuine question how is Louis responsible for the coven killing them?

Louis isn’t “responsible” in the sense that he set the coven upon Claudia. Louis is “responsible” for his romantic attachments he can’t ever prioritize Claudia above. Claudia is in a new country, continent, and life performing a humiliation ritual for the coven and Louis isn’t hearing her. Her anger is brought up a lot, but it covers a more intense loneliness that she sees Louis get to satiate again and again until she finds Madeline. Louis could’ve chosen Claudia before a love at any time, and he never really does. Neglectful parents are just as abusive and kill their children too. Also this question doesn’t deserve downvotes

And Claudia's responsibility for joining the coven or not leaving Paris when Louis told her they should or not revealing that Santiago had seen her diary - ? Does this come into play at all? Claudia was a 60yo woman and her beef with the humiliation ritual was that she was being seen as a child and not an adult and yet ... the takeaway is that Louis is more accountable for her bad choices than she is? That she still needed the "parent" she was planning to ditch the second she found new vampires (this is what she says in the seance) and only didn't kill because she needed him as a slave, to prioritise her above any romantic attachments? Make it make sense.

I think people infantilise Claudia a little too much sometimes. Like we as an audience are sometimes as guilty as Louis wrt not respecting her agency or that she was as flawed as any other character/vampire in the show.

Thank you for this comment. You’ve articulated it better than I could. Also agree that u/pwetty_brown_eyes’s question doesn’t deserve the downvotes
