    Summary

    It's halfway through the second reading when he realizes few members of the audience are listening. What's the point in attending mass? Does it provide their short lives of meaning, if there's one at all?

    How much till this ends?

    Did I leave the gate open? Mom is going to kill me!

    Tommy has been avoiding me lately.

    Beautiful eyes. Are they orange…? No, it must be the candlelight.

    The voice of a man. Armand's eyes roam around the church to find the owner of that thought. Where is he? The farmer next to him? No. The young man holding the Bible open? It's not him either. The priest is about to begin the reading of the gospel and Armand's eyes fall to the center of the altar.

    Yes, they're actually orange. Absolutely stunning.

    The priest is looking directly at him.

    Summary

    “I said I’m fine, Alice,” Daniel snaps, and time itself grinds to a halt.

    Not literally. Ha. The things you have to specify with vampires. Daniel wishes he could laugh, but the sound is stuck somewhere in his throat, along with his heart. Now, of course, his hand chooses to be perfectly still.

    Why the fuck did he say that?

    *

    daniel keeps slipping up and mistaking armand for his ex-wife and the more he looks back on his memories, the less reliable they get. he's pretty sure he married alice molloy, but how do you marry a woman who apparently never existed?

    armand is armand about it.

    Summary

    Daniel has no fucking clue what’s going on.

    He knows Armand. Hell, he considers his relationship with Armand to be one of his failed marriages. But now Armand is cosplaying as one of Louis’ houseboys while pretending the two of them didn’t have a whole life of their own.

    It’s either a massive Saw trap designed by Armand to fuck with him one last time - which fuck him very much if so - or maybe Daniel’s losing his mind.

    Could this be the Parkinson’s? Is the whole fucking interview just a delusion? Does it work that way?

    Summary

    ISO: Carer to look after my father for 8 weeks this summer.
    Dad is 71, early stage Parkinson’s disease, broke his hip 6 weeks ago. No signs of cognitive decline; mostly needs help with household tasks (cooking, light cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping), getting dressed, showering, changing cat litter/general cat care, getting to and from appointments.
    Please know what you are getting into; Dad is physically more or less in good health but awful at accepting his limitations, unnecessarily mean, generally uncooperative, and largely nocturnal. Imagine yourself caring for a feral raccoon that is convinced it’s going to write another book, then subtract everything that is cute about raccoons.
    $20/hour, roughly 4 hours a day. Must be able to pass a background check and lift 50 lbs. Patience of a saint not required but preferred.

    Summary

    "Who are you?"
    "What do you mean who are you? I'm Daniel, your husband, remember?"
    Armand tried to listen into the mind of this... this... younger vampire, this clone of the love of his life for any sign of the truth, any inkling that might could give him a clue of what was going on, only to be met by a wall of silence. The clone was starting to shift from annoyed to concerned.
    "Boss, are you-" But he was cut off by the unmistakable wailing of a human infant coming from somewhere down the hallway. Daniel's younger clone sighed, "I'll get it. You try and get some rest, I think the lack of sleep is starting to take its toll on you..."

     

    You heard of time travel fics? Well, get ready for Reality-shifting ones.
