    Summary

    Daniel had entered that apartment wanting drugs in exchange for sex, maybe getting an interview out of it as well. He hadn't prepared to almost get killed, accidentally be the reason behind the break up of a twenty year long relationship, then acquire a persistent shadow/roommate that dizzyingly wavered between protective and borderline abusive. But when had life ever been predictable for Daniel?

    Summary

    Louis knows that, despite their relationship dynamic, Armand is the one with the power.

    He’s older, stronger, wiser, and just overall more powerful. Louis could never beat him if it ever came to a serious fight. Armand could crush him flat easily.

    It's why, despite his rage and betrayal, Louis knows the most he can get away with is pushing the man away and hopefully protecting Daniel.

    He knows that the most he can do is leave him.
    Expect... he doesn't have the power to do that either.

    Or

    Would a manipulative, desperate, obviously obsessive lover like Armand really let Louis just walk out that door and end a 77 year relationship he’s busted his ass for and literally tortured and killed people to maintain?

    No fucking way.

    Summary

    “I’ve been thinking of staying here,” Armand says. He turns around to study Daniel, leans a hip against the metal railing of the balcony, cigarette dangling between his fingers. “In Miami.”
    Daniel laughs and snatches the cigarette from Armand’s grasp, taking a long drag so he can exhale smoke through his nostrils. Armand hates it when he does that, and always says Daniel will ruin his sense of smell more than he already has, which is why Daniel makes a point of doing it again anyway. “Screw off, man. You only come here because I like it.”
    “I was thinking of purchasing an island."
    Miami, 1975: Armand wants to build something with Daniel, a shrine to their relationship, a place for them both. It takes the shape of the Night Island.

    Summary

    "Marius wanted a son and wife and muse all in one body. Santino wanted an armed martyr, an angel of vengeance, a saint of pestilence. Armand did what he was told. Armand became the toothed lamb. And this time, he stayed that way."

    or, someone unexpected shows his face in Armand's city and sometimes -only sometimes- Armand allows himself to be the monster that he really is.

    Summary

    A brief look into Armand's manipulative tendencies and abandonment issues as he reminisces falling for Daniel, keeping Louis none the wiser.

    At first, the stalking was motivated purely out of venomous resentment. Charm the boy, sleep with him, torture him, eventually kill him when he was no longer interesting. Punish Louis as he had done to him. But as Armand followed Daniel night after night, city after city, his malevolence transformed into pure obsession. He was enraptured by the reckless mortal who had forgotten his name, his face, and was enchanted by him even through his cruelty; this sentiment proved to be mutual after a few years when he finally let the boy drink his blood. His sacred blood that seldom crossed the lips of another, yet hung now from a vial on the mortal boy’s neck.

    Can be read independently of the rest of the series, but you are mine, beautiful boy provides a little context!

    Summary

    Armand gifts Daniel an amulet containing his preternatural blood, a protective charm for his beautiful mortal boy.

    Turning his boy would prove catastrophic.

    His alluring humanity, his naïvety - all of that would dissipate with his descent into a damned existence. But even more so, and Armand would not even admit this to himself: if Armand were to transform Daniel into what he was, he was destined to despise him. To desert him. All fledglings end up hating their maker: he abandoned his own after years of abuse (which was not the first time his maker had been left by a former fledgling or unwilling lover) and Louis murdered Lestat with the help of their late daughter. The bond between maker and fledgling is always impenetrable at first, shepherding the bloodless into an obsession for some time, but it always metamorphoses into antipathy. The subsequent, inevitable abandonment after such a spellbinding love was not something he ever wanted, not with Daniel. He wanted to keep him. The boy was his.

    Can be read as a standalone.

    Summary

    Armand never betrayed Louis in this world so the interview went a little differently.

    Still, they both end up dying fighting for their lives against invading vampires after the release of the book. They both wake up in 1908 in the past like nothing ever happen. Two years before Louis even meets Lestat. A chance at a do-over. Of course they'll do it together.

    Problem is... Louis' not sure if he wants to be a vampire again. Not to mention he has once again caught Lestat eye on accident.

    Armand's going to have a conniption at this rate.

    Summary

    Daniel is in over his head. His plan when he went to track down his Maker was to give the guy a piece of his mind, learn to fly, and move on with his life. It’s not his problem Armand has ruined every relationship he’s ever been in. Instead of mastering his supernatural skills he finds himself pacing the floor of a sleek, impersonal rental with Armand -Arun- sobbing into the shoulder of his shirt and begging not to be left alone again. The irony of their role reversal is not lost on him: the ancient immortal childlike and miserable while his infant fledgling cares for his regressed maker. He doesn't know what Armand-Arun-Amadeo needs, but he’ll do his best to provide it.

    Summary

    Daniel was Louis and Armand's house pet for four days. What else happened in that wretched sunlit apartment in San Francisco? (From Armand’s POV)

    As if rooted in a trance, Armand stared forward and listened to his lover’s voice on the cheap hissing cassette tape, trying to tune out the whimpering, shuddering boy behind him.

    “Rest.” The boy fell silent.

    All of it, blather - yet unequivocally passionate, open. A passion that Louis had never graced before him out loud or even in passing thought. The venom of irascibility and bellicosity coated each word he spoke, yes, but it was still curiously vulnerable. Twenty-three years together and he still was not allowed the role of a companion. He knew that their love was built on a bed of lies, but in utter defiance of that fact, he was astonished to once again learn that he was second best. Substandard. Discarded. Abandoned. Too boring, lacking even a modicum of fascination to be loved.

What if he wasn’t a 514 year old vampire but instead Louis’ human companion of 7 years who’d pretended to just be their assistant Rashid? How close will Daniel get to figuring out their real relationship? Also, why is it that Louis refuses to turn Armand despite years of asking?

    Summary

    I'll keep it simple to avoid spoilers.

    Post-interview (in a world Armand never betrayed Louis) Armand and Louis are going on a road trip to avoid getting killed by soon to be invading angry vampires.

    They see a tree in the road and end up in a town, at night, where monsters torture and kill people every night. They find these monster to be a delectable, junk food-like, treat. Apparently, vampires are also predators for 'Smile' monsters.

    They decide to lay low, stick to eating the monsters at night as cover, while they live among the humans and try to help find a way home too. Insisting all the while Louis has a sun allergy. Interestingly enough they come to find that all the people here don't seem to have a concept of vampires? So the excuse works. They wonder, if they might not all be from the same world like they first thought.

    Oh, and Louis may have risked their cover by choosing to save someone, giving the towns folk full view to see just how the terrifying monsters ran for the first time ever to get away from an approaching Louis and Armand.

    For clarity, this takes place after the Matthews arrive but before the bus does.

    Summary

    “D—don’t ask me to hurt you ever again,” Daniel continues weakly, barely above a whisper, pressing a shaky kiss against his temple as he sobs. “Don’t ask me to violate your limits just because I can. Just because I can doesn’t mean I should.”

    “Daniel—”

    Never. Do you hear me?”

    devil's minion era—but make it toxic and rotten to the core.

    Summary

    Daniel hated to admit it, but he had been avoiding Armand. Or perhaps the term young people used nowadays was ghosting. He hadn’t responded to any of the other man’s tinder messages and had been avoiding the restuarant where they had their first and only date like the plague. It was a cowardly move, he knew. What he should’ve done was just message Armand and outright say he wasn’t interested in pursuing a relationship with him.
