    Summary

    Famously cold A-lister Aerion Targaryen and his younger brother's friend, newcomer Duncan Tall, are cast as lovers in HBO's upcoming LGBTQ+ series Heated Chivalry.

    The show follows the cruel Prince Robert (Aerion) and Ser Wymon (Dunk), a hedge knight forced to become the prince's personal guard after an altercation. Forced to spend every waking moment together, they go from enemies to reluctant allies to something more.

    Paparazzi photos and fan accounts explode with speculation. Their PR managers see an opportunity: a fake dating arrangement would promote the show, boost Dunk's career, and finally silence the years of rumors about Aerion's sexuality.

    So they make a deal: fake date until the season finishes airing.

    Except somewhere between the staged dates and the twelve-hour days filming love scenes, the lines blur.

    Or: Aerion and Dunk have to pretend to slowly fall in love on-screen, which then coincidentally moves off-screen as they start fake dating to promote the show and boost their image. Too bad it’s all fake, right?

    Summary

    Daniel asks Louis if he's sure when he first suggests it. He asks him again a few days later, to see if he's changed his mind. He makes a psychic collect call to Lestat, of all people, and asks if he's sure. Asks Armand if he's sure when he accepts the invitation, when they're packing, when they're on the way to the airport. When they're walking up to arrivals, Armand’s grip crushing Daniel's fingers, Louis smiling at the back of the crowd with his hands in his pockets, casual as anything, like they do this every day.

    They're all sure and sure and sure, so Daniel lets Louis pull him in with one arm, Armand with the other, and hug them both while a planeful of tired New Yorkers filters out around them into the muggy bayou dark.
