    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 does not remember the other man's name but he remembers tentative laughter, the reflection of his eyes in moonlight, whispered-words, a hand in his as they walked through Paris. He remembers his own begging. He remembers how the other man cried tears of blood.
    He shrugs with a half smile, "I am Armand," he says sadly, "But you will forget by morning."

    A reimagining of Devil's Minion, wherein Armand stalks Daniel throughout his life after 1973 in an ongoing affair of blood and memory loss.

    Summary

    Armand has notes for Daniel's documentary on Lestat. He sends him unhinged emails about it. Armand breaks into other people's minds so he can stalk Daniel more efficiently. (I'm trying to channel the pure insanity of Devil's Minion, but also tie in the current season. There will be one chapter per Vampire Lestat episode).

    “I drank that disgusting drink so you could taste it,” and he holds out his still-bleeding fingertip. Smiles: small, tentative. “Please?”

    Daniel’s crossed the room, and he’s cracked down to his knees which Armand wasn’t expecting (Armand almost calls out: “your knees!” forgetting Dan’s bones are no longer human bones), and he has Armand’s finger in his mouth and he’s sucking. Armand gasps in, horks in the air. Staggers back so he’s got his other hand bracing on the counter.

    “How do I- taste?” Armand hisses.

    Daniel guides Armand’s knuckle deeper, then pops it out. “Vermouth. No annihilation.”

    Armand learns Daniel fought the Fang Gang. He's livid (protective).

    Summary

    Throughout a multiverse of opportunities, there is a certain level of stability that one needs, in order to form a discrete identity within that soup.

    In which the Patrician has... a time, several times in a row, and Samuel Vimes is an incredibly convenient form of stability.

    Summary

    In an infinite number of universes everything is possible and in one of them the city of Ankh-Morpork is ruled by Lady Sybil the Patrician, while Samuel Vimes finds himself marrying an assassin named Havelock Vetinari.
    I sort of cheated and assumed that the main events in the Discworld series still happen (like the promotion, the crimes Vimes has to deal with, etc), and wrote a bunch of scenes that - in my mind - happen throughout. I tried to put them in chronological order.

    Summary

    Against the dark, Vetinari saw the Commander’s outline writhe in place, and the red symbol partially disappeared as Vimes obscured its glow beneath his hand.

    “Sir—” Vimes spoke through gritted teeth, though his voice was returned to normal, “—please stop baiting the godsdamned thing!”

    “I was only making conversation,” Vetinari replied.

    When they realise they're the only two people in the city who know a certain secret about their bosses, Angua and Drumknott form an unlikely alliance.

    A support group, if you will.


    Alright, this started as a bit of a joke, but now it exists and it is also now - finally - complete.

    It runs alongside canon so there's spoilers for Fifth Elephant, Jingo and The Truth.

    This is based on another Tumblr fluff prompt; Stormscrait requested these two Grossing Everyone Out With How In Love They Are, so please enjoy my attempt to write this whilst keeping them somewhat in character.

    Summary

    They were not men where the concept of love was an easy thing. Life – their lives in particular – was far too complicated and dicey to really allow it. Yet Havelock had to admit, even it was only to himself, that this man was someone who he held in high esteem and harboured a hefty dose of affection towards. He cared quite deeply for Samuel.

    ---
    It was still a lovely evening. Leaning against the stone wall, Havelock watched a collection of small birds flit and swarm around a lamp, catching moths. The creatures darted and swooped, deftly catching their prey. Little paper thin wings fluttered to the ground. It was serene. A brisk wind caught him, and Havelock pulled his heavy cloak around his shoulders. With care, he crossed his bad leg over the other, hands clasped on his knee. Havelock allowed himself a moment of quiet and closed his eyes.

    'What the bloody hell do you mean you don't know where he is?' Boomed a voice. Havelock opened his eyes. The birds scattered. A harried looking clerk trotted lopsidedly beside Commander Vimes, face beet red and hands waving.

    Maybe they've just been going about it the wrong way
