    Summary

    Dan never uploaded a single YouTube video. After falling deeply in love with Phil in 2009 and filming a few videos with him, their developing relationship took a hard hit when Dan was not accepted to the University of Manchester, and they drifted apart in 2011. Phil never became a famous YouTuber without Dan.

    In 2026, Dan is struggling™, and his therapist recommends physiotherapy for health issues that his GP can’t deal with. Imagine Dan’s surprise when the PT comes in wearing a t-shirt he bought for Phil all those years ago…

    Summary

    Vi didn’t believe in witches, or ghosts, or vampires. She believed in facts. And, unlike most people in her small town, she believed the series of mysterious deaths that had occurred in the past decades was nothing but an unfortunate coincidence.

    It had nothing to do with the old mansion just outside the outskirts of town. Or the lonely woman who lived there. Everyone was just paranoid.

    She would show them.

    Summary

    Phil Lester is dead. Phil Lester is alive. He’s neither, he’s both Dan doesn’t know what to do with that. He doesn’t know what to do with anything these days. Dan wants to get as far away from him as possible. Dan wants to climb into his skin and it close enough. The latter always seems to win. Phil carries himself differently since he came back, he’s quiet, Phil Lester isn’t quiet, he’s not supposed to be. Phil Lester is loud, he’s loud in everything he does, he’s loud in the way he loves, except everything about him now is quieter, it’s still, like a pond right before a rock hits it, it’s calm that’s waiting for something, for someone to strike. 

    or

    Phil's a vampire now, and Dan doesn't know what to do with that.

    Summary

    "The way they were wound together was as familiar and as welcome as the feeling of falling asleep at night. Dan again tasted the metallic tinge of his own blood in Phil’s mouth, and he groaned.

    So what if Phil was a vampire? If Phil was a brick wall, Dan would drive right into it."

    --

    Phil is attacked and turned into a vampire. As Dan helps him navigate his transformation, he realizes that he wants to follow Phil everywhere, including into the world of the undead.
