    Summary

    Lestat’s hands are shaking. Louis doesn’t know what to say: Yes? No? Maybe? Perhaps he should’ve said something because Lestat takes his silence as an answer anyways and shoots to his feet.

    “This was a mistake. I shouldn’t have told you.” He shakes his head, eyes noticeably red. “No, I shouldn’t have come here at all.”

    ***

    Lestat tells Louis his story, but Louis doesn't entirely believe him.

    Summary

    After five years working as an ER doctor in a busy hospital in New Orleans, Doctor Louis du Lac decides that it's time for a sea-change. He takes a job at remotest place he could get, miles from mainland Britain, where he shares a surgery with an ageing GP, Doctor Daniel Molloy. Together, they take care of the health of the quirky personalities and lost souls of the island as Louis tries to find himself and his happiness.

    PS: Warning-tags will be added to the chapters as they're spoilery.

    Summary

    Lestat does not have any fondness for people in giant suits pretending to be animals. Or for animatronics, which he finds creepier than he would like to admit, or for large groups of children – to be honest, any children that aren’t Claudia, at least for periods of time longer than a birthday party — and so when Louis had first floated the idea of Disney World, he had been less than enthusiastic.

    “But it’s in Florida,” he had said, dismayed.

    “Yeah,” Louis had replied, “but Orlando is pretty gay-friendly, and the parks definitely are. ‘Sides, we live in Louisiana, we can’t really talk.”

    Lestat had really meant that the humidity would be murder on his hair, but he had allowed Louis to think that homophobia was his primary concern.

    The de Pointe du Lac de Lioncourts take Disney World.

    (The intense tags are for references to Lestat’s and Louis’s own terrible childhoods: the worst thing that happens in this fic is someone mildly freaking out on a rollercoaster. Guess who.)
