    Summary

    “It’s okay, love, it’s okay,” Lestat kisses him, tasting the blood in his tears. “You take care of me, I take care of you.”

    Louis nods. Yes, yes, yes.

    “You kiss my tears, I kiss yours,” Lestat whispers, doing just that, and his hands start shaking but it’s out of love, so much love.

    Summary

    He tells himself, as he tugs on the reins to keep from straying from the path climbing the hill, that no one should ever witness it. The pendant he wears around his neck is heavy with gold and bounces against his chest with every gallop. Louis traces the return of his breath upon it, and with it every beat that still soothes his heart. Lestat’s hair—a faint trace, honey-wheat under the summer sun, the scent of lavender lingering in every strand. But stiff, terribly stiff—just like a dead person’s hair. Cold in their coffin at the first snow of the wake—they lie locked away in that golden locket. Protected and eternal, against his heart.

    OR

    Lestat was willing, back in Detroit. Louis deals with the aftermath.

    Summary

    Daniel sighs, puts his mental notebook away, and resigns himself to another lonely evening. “No offense, but you know I’m not interested.”

    Lestat smirks, doesn’t move. “I know you don’t care about having me. I also know who you do want.” His mouth twitches, and something changes in his posture; it’s a hundred tiny adjustments, the slightest straightening of his spine, an infinitesimal drop of his shoulders. He crosses his ankles and arches a brow. “Isn’t that right, Daniel.”

    Of course, before he was a pianist or a rockstar or the subject of a documentary, Lestat had been a virtuosic actor. There’s no one thing Daniel could point to that’s distinctly Armand, and yet that’s who he’s seeing now, a vision of cool goldenrod eyes fixed on him, a dark halo of curls. It’s not how Louis had described his hallucinations; he knows he’s looking at Lestat, he can see Lestat, but here in front of him is Armand.

    A sound that’s not quite a gulp, not quite a whine escapes him. “I-“

    “Daniel.” Uncannily steady, Lestat’s voice, now. Cool, and smooth, oilcloth and silk.

    Daniel shudders and fails to hide it. “That’s me.”

    Summary

    “I don’t hate kids,” says Lohen.

    Varka trips a little. “What was that?”

    Lohen responds by sinking further into Varka’s chest, enveloped by his heartbeat and expanding-retracting lungs. “They’re, just… loud. And needy.”

    Varka snorts. “I’d have thought that would give you some common ground with ‘em.”

    Lohen wants to pinch him, but his arm won’t move.

    “And maybe you’ve got that much in common with Mondstadt, too,” says Varka, “because we need you. So you have to survive this, alright?”

    Lohen doesn’t actually want to die, he just really, really, really wants his subordinates to live. Sometimes that means standing between them and a heaving, snarling beast and letting it do its thing.
