    Summary

    It is unbearable to you, suddenly, that he should fear growing old. That he should fear anything, at all.

    “I’ll take care of you when you’re old,” you promise him, “because you’ll never be less beautiful to me. Even when you’re all grey and hunched over. I’ll even paint you, if you want me to.” And I won’t change your skin, or the curve of your nose, or the color of your hair. When my paintings hang on gallery walls, people will walk past and say, look, there’s Amadeo. My paintings of you will look like you.

    Silly romantic thoughts. Boyish daydreams. Sun setting over Venice, painting Amadeo gold.

    Summary

    “Where'd he even come from?” Louis asks.

    “Heaven,” says Lestat.

    “Twitter,” says Daniel.

    Louis doesn't know which answer he finds more disturbing.


    Lestat is done waiting for Louis to be his companion again, so he sets out to find a new one. Louis is fine about it. Totally fine.

    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

    Daniel won his first Pulitzer with an article that he wrote over one feverish week, high on the best cocaine he’d ever hit. Half-starved, and angry about it. Wholly out of his mind with fire. Three months behind on rent and desperate for a break. He didn’t remember the day it was published, let alone screaming at his editor for altering his headline.

    The article that won his second Pulitzer took him ten years of blood, sweat, and tears. He had brawled for that story, facing off against unremitting skepticism, a vicious divorce, a back alley beatdown, a dozen failed leads, being fired, being rehired, and six broken ribs so he could keep going. Every sentence had been suffering like nothing he’d ever experienced. White-knuckled determination alone crafted that pain onto two thousand perfect lines. Publishing that one ingrained a permanent pleasure spot in his brain, one he shamelessly hit when cocaine just wouldn't cut it.

    Louis had been a fever week. Brawling with Armand was gonna take him a lot longer than ten years.
