    Summary

    If he could crack open the shell of his own skull and rummage around in all the lost, forgotten corners, he might find the memories hiding there, among the dust and the desiccated corpses of spiders. He could unspool them like ribbons of nitrocellulose film; hold them up to the light and finally, finally see.

    A series of things Armand has forgotten.

    Summary

    Daniel gives himself a moment to digest everything.

    Two extra copies of Armand. One wearing tights and screaming in Italian – or whatever dialect they spoke in sixteenth-century Venice – and one that looked like he just crawled out of a French sewer.

    “So this is what you were trying to hide from me? You, what -- accidentally Boys From Brazil’d yourself?” 

    Armand turns to look at him. He’s got that cute little frown line between his eyebrows, the one he gets when he’s so distracted trying to figure something out that he forgets to care about how his face looks.  

    “You are not taking this the way I anticipated.”

    Or: Daniel and Armand... and Arun, and Amadeo, and Armand (Gremlin).

    Summary

    You pop open the plastic Blockbuster Video rental case and push the tape into the VCR. The last person to rent was kind enough to rewind, so you hit play. After a strongly worded message from the FBI, the first trailer begins. An armandsairpods and Thunder_Puss joint production...

    "Accidental novelist Daniel Molloy is ready to do just about anything to avoid writing a sequel to the hit pulp vampire romance he churned out while in the throes of his addiction. Lucky for him that the luxury apartment building he's just moved into is full of beautiful and strange characters to keep him busy. His neighbor, for example; the handsome Louis who feels uneasy about the old building's acoustics and often senses that he is being watched. Louis' ex, Lestat, with his prince-like charm and sweeping romantic gestures that almost make up for his careless missteps. Did we mention that he is French? And he isn't the only one. You'll meet Madeleine, Eglee, Santiago, and Claudia. And, of course, there is the building's beguiling manager, Armand. A strange and mild-mannered man with just a few too many plates spinning and an obvious desire to appear outwardly conventional which leaves Daniel with a burning desire to peel back his layers."

    Summary

    The first rule of the Talamasca is that they watch. It’s in the slogan, it’s in the job description; they watch and they are always there. It is not, Rashid reflects, We Watch and We Involve Ourselves in the Lives of Our Subjects, and it’s certainly not We Watch and We Put Our Dicks in the Vampires We Are Observing.
