Quote #4

"'I hate you both!'" (1.487)

Well, now she hates them both. When Claudia finds out that Louis killed her, and Lestat vamped her, she—rightfully, we'd say—flips out at them both. She ends up killing Lestat. Does she ever truly forgive Louis?

Quote #5

"'Locked together in hatred,' she said to me calmly afterwards." (1.493)

You might have heard that the enemy of your enemy is your friend. This kind of applies to Louis and Claudia because, despite the fact that Claudia claims to despise Louis, she hates Lestat more and is thereby joined with Louis in hatred for Lestat.

Quote #6

"'I want to kill [Lestat]. I will enjoy it!'" (1.533)

Many murders take place in a fit of passion, and the murderer might feel remorse afterwards. Not Claudia. She hates Lestat so much she'll gleefully do it. She looks forward to it. The question is whether this is because of the depth of her hatred, or the depth of her cold, evil, vampire nature.
