    Summary

    Whatever carefully blank expression Lestat is trying on disappears like a slap. “Armand made a fledgling. Why would he do that?” Lestat asks.

    “Oh, you know,” Louis says, watching the three dots of a new text pop up. “He knew Daniel was… important to me.”

    He means to say it with rueful annoyance, as if to say, “so he ruined him.” But as Daniel’s text comes in—the most important question I should have asked you in that fucking interview: where do you buy coke in Dubai?—Louis’s voice trails off, his words maybe lacking some of the bite.

    or

    Lestat misunderstands what Daniel is to Louis and tries to be a champ about it. Meanwhile Louis rediscovers his drug of choice—Lestat.

    Summary

    Some days are good. Good enough that life feels almost normal again.

    Some days are a blur. He feels gentle touches in his hair, hears words he's too tired to understand.

    And some days, when he notices how much time Louis is spending with him, when he realises how horrible he's being to him, he's just choked by the guilt of it all.

    ****

    Lestat has promised Louis a year together before going underground. This is a collection of events from that year.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I ended this story trembling, overwhelmed with so many different feelings (love and joy being the most prevalent ones), and just completely gobsmacked. Flabbergasted. The tenderness, omg. Louis and Lestat are star crossed lovers and they give me life.

    Summary

    "You can sleep Lestat, it’s okay.”

    “I’m sorry I sued you,” he manages to say around a sob.

    “Lestat, come on, sshh,” he chides, rolling his eyes. His lawyer would have a field day with an admission like that. “Go to sleep.”

    *****

    A drunken call in the night makes the signs impossible to ignore anymore.
