    Summary

    "It was then that Daniel realized he'd forgotten one of the most frightening things about the monster in the room with him. The sheer intensity of Armand's desperation for love."

    Summary

    “What do we do?” Claudia asks, frantic.

    “Nothing,” Madeleine says. “We do nothing.”

    The girl is going cold. On the very ledge of death. She can’t be more than five. Claudia isn’t sure what’s happening in her mind, just that she needs the girl not to die.

    Claudia and Madeleine decide not to have a final meeting with Louis in Paris.

    Summary

    Nearly a year after his unexpected transformation into a vampire, Daniel Molloy is back in New York, taking a break from his documentary on emerging rock sensation The Vampire Lestat. And while Daniel is enjoying most of his new powers, he is finding the Mind Gift... a little difficult to resist.

    Enter Marius de Romanus, the ancient vampire philosopher who offers to guide Daniel through his fledgling journey and to tell him the real story of the Vampire Armand, the Maker who abandoned him. A tempting offer, although Daniel begins to find the line between truth and fiction increasingly difficult to perceive.

    Summary

    Instead of letting Daniel know he’s near and give him the satisfaction of knowing the horrors he craves are just around the corner and out of sight, Armand is secretive about it. He visits not in person, but through the mind of Daniel’s wife. Just a peek, he decides. He wants to see his boy, wants to feel his boy inside him. What better way than through his wife’s eyes?

    ---

    Daniel has cooped himself up with his heavily pregnant first wife. Armand decides to take a peek into their sex life and experiences more than he bargained for. A prequel to the lactation kink series, though it can absolutely be read as an unrelated stand-alone.

    Summary

    “We aren’t together anymore,” he says. He does not ask if she overheard, simply arches his brows, waits for her to speak. “I only wanted to observe.”
    “Mhmm. Fuck you,” she says, halfheartedly. “Observe what, us?”
    “I wanted to see him where he belongs. Among his…peers, you could say.”
    “With me? With the girls? He doesn’t belong to me. I wouldn’t want him to. He doesn’t even belong with me. As far as I’m concerned, you can have him.”
    Armand, looking less the boy than ever now, narrows his eyes just slightly. He studies her like a stray animal trying to figure out how to open a garbage can: if he can just understand, he can feast. “Why? You love him.”

    OR:
    Armand, famously normal about his partners' families, haunts the Molloys.

    Summary

    Just those two telepathically discussing Louis’ reading list, cockroaches, Daniel’s unconsummated first love, the Swedish model and how gross Armand’s blood actually tastes + Daniel remembering some sticky and not at all embarassing situations, but of course.

    Summary

    Your agent is undressing me with his eyes. Armand’s voice is soft, a little amused. He wants to know if the underwear matches.

    Daniel swallows. Armand’s nails scrape at his inner thigh, muted by denim and latex. Well, does it?

    Summary

    "At least the stewardesses were pretty to look at. While the uniforms had gotten undeniably prudish since the 70's, there was something about the knee-length sky blue skirts and dainty little neck handkerchiefs that piqued his red-blooded american interest.

     

    One of them was certainly a looker, long shapely legs with curves that the modest skirt couldn't quite hide, a head full of teased black curls. The stewardess was bent down so she could speak to one of the passengers and thus Daniel got a full glean of her backside. When she stood upright, he was surprised to find she was deceptively tall. He hadn't even seen the broad’s face yet but Daniel was still chomping at the bit. God, it had been a hot minute since he last got laid.”

     

    —Two instances in which Armand and Daniel join the Mile high club, 40 years apart.

    Summary

    Daniel has had a shitty day. Nothing he writes is turning out like he wants it, and he's starting to think he should just give up altogether. Armand turns up to take his mind off it.

    Just some sexy vampire shenanigans for our favourite struggling writer.

    Summary

    ‘Oh dear, Mr Molloy, what is this?'

    The city lights, blown and slipping in and out of focus above him, streaming in from the broken ceiling of… where was he? Well it didn’t really matter. That was the idea, right? A deep, hot bath of forgetfulness. He wished he could forget those eyes too, the horrific object of his fear and longing, floating above him without a face, a narrowed pair of warm skylights.

    ‘Next time you want to die, Daniel Molloy, you’ll come to me.’

    There was an unspoken ‘or else’ in that satin voice. And then the lights went out.

    ---
    OR; the one in which Daniel tries — and fails — to keep his nose clean and Armand finds new and exciting ways to torture his (did somebody say fascinating?) boy.

    Summary

    A take on Devil's Minion in the world of the show. Begins directly after San Francisco 1973.

    You want to be something, be someone.

    "Yes," Daniel Molloy says up towards his battered ceiling, frozen by the voice in his head.

    You are exactly what you are, Daniel. No matter how many successes you find, you will never be more than this.

    Daniel's heart sinks. Armand revels in it. "That's not true."

    I can free you from this prison of banality, of the endless search for what you'll never find. I can give you everything. You need only give yourself over to me and do as I say.

    Summary

    Who of us had not loved something or somebody? How much did these feelings, these loves, these worships, have to do with pure reason? Little or nothing, we saw at last. Were not these things the tissue out of which our lives were constructed? Did not these feelings, after all, determine the course of our existence? It was impossible to say we had no capacity for faith, or love, or worship. In one form or another we had been living by faith and little else.

    from The Big Book by William G. Wilson and Robert H. Smith, Chapter 4: We Agnostics

    Armand and Daniel on living by more than faith.

    Summary

    ISO: Carer to look after my father for 8 weeks this summer.
    Dad is 71, early stage Parkinson’s disease, broke his hip 6 weeks ago. No signs of cognitive decline; mostly needs help with household tasks (cooking, light cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping), getting dressed, showering, changing cat litter/general cat care, getting to and from appointments.
    Please know what you are getting into; Dad is physically more or less in good health but awful at accepting his limitations, unnecessarily mean, generally uncooperative, and largely nocturnal. Imagine yourself caring for a feral raccoon that is convinced it’s going to write another book, then subtract everything that is cute about raccoons.
    $20/hour, roughly 4 hours a day. Must be able to pass a background check and lift 50 lbs. Patience of a saint not required but preferred.

    Summary

    A month of soft domestic moments between Armand and Daniel; where Daniel struggles to write, Armand discovers the wonders of Walmart, Daniel takes Armand to a punk show, and these boys spend an excessive amount of time cuddled in each other's arms.

    This follows on from my previous story, 'Sometimes Writing Sucks', but you don't need to read that to understand this. This is really just soft boys being soft, and a little about how hard it is to write sometimes. Enjoy x

    70% fiction. 20% reality. 15% daydreaming. 5% being bad at maths.

    Summary

    Daniel sees life like a river. Thinks he is caught up in a current that only goes one way, that will eventually sweep him out to sea. It’s easier for him to think so. It keeps him alive to think so.

    He doesn’t know that he could stand up and reach the bottom. He doesn’t know he has a choice.


    Drugs don’t work, sex doesn’t work, New York hasn’t worked. Somewhere in the Appalachian Mountains, an improbable number of suicides have taken place. Somewhere in a bar in New York, Daniel hears about them. He wants to fill a void. The difference between what is real and what isn’t matters as little to him as the things he’ll find to throw into the darkness. Which, as it turns out, is quite a lot.

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    Armand feeds him from the wrist and Daniel is unmade, pulled like the end of a slipknot until he once more is a thing unformed. A blank slate, tabula rasa, wiped clean. A sand castle at high tide. A snake eating its own tail.

    Everything eats itself in the end, comes back to where it started, and Daniel is no different. His blood is Armand’s blood is his blood, and when he gulps down mouthful after mouthful, Armand’s hand feverishly massaging his throat to aid the weak, dying muscles in forcing it down, it is himself he is drinking from.

    He is at the bottom of it all. He is at the place from before the bottom even existed, the place that always was. He is woven into nothing and back again. He is woven into nothing and it is woven into him. He is woven, and unwoven, and hungry, and woven, and starving, and woven.

    Starving, starving, starving. Like the ringing of an alarm clock. Eat, you stupid motherfucker. Feed.

    He thought he knew before, when he was just a dumb addict. What it means to be hungry.

    He had no fucking idea.

    Armand, Daniel, and a lesson in taking the long way home.
