    Summary

    He wakes up to pearl-grey morning light coming through the old lace curtains of Dongsik's window. He's wearing an old stretched-out shirt and sweatpants, not his own. Beside him, arm tucked under the pillow, Dongsik sleeps.

    Hot panic rushes over him. He dimly remembers getting into the shower, being guided by Dongsik's hands. Being handed these clothes, tugging the shirt over his head. Accepting a patter of explanations from Dongsik on why it would be better that he just stay the night. And he remembers everything before that.

    He squeezes his eyes shut, as though he can disappear back into sleep. Dongsik makes a small sound, shifts slightly against the pillow, and Juwon's eyes fly open again. If he is here when Dongsik wakes up, he will have to say something, and that is impossible.

    Summary

    “Why do you ask?”

    And fuck, if that doesn’t rattle the box Louis’ tried to lock this up in, and if they weren’t trying to be better, do better, Louis would ask him why do you think? Would ask him what goes on in your head that you think I wouldn’t want to know all of this? Would ask him what it is about the two of them, who can talk for nights on nights on nights, who can know each other’s topography and undersoil, who can live within the most wild and rugged terrains of one another, yet only turn over their most weathered stones for tourists.

    -

    Louis and Lestat argue about moving in, the interview, and finally, deeply, darkly, about Magnus.

    Summary

    “I want to know about your life before me. Had to learn it the hard way, didn’t we? About the Paris Coven?”

    “I told you both what they were, you just didn’t listen,” Lestat snaps, and at least they’ve had this fight already in the time since that fateful reunion – that telling them, vaguely as he did, that vampires outside of New Orleans were vicious doesn’t fucking count for anything – and Lestat seems to remember that around the same time Louis does, because he shrinks a little. Runs a hand back through his hair, looks up at Louis through his painted lashes. Then, softer: “You still think I am withholding?”

    Which - - fuck. Louis laughs.

    “Yeah, baby, I do.”

    -

    A year after Louis and Lestat reunite, they're still figuring it out. Daniel calls it out, Louis tries to move them forwards, and maybe they just fuck instead.

    Summary

    Outside, Tokyo’s early evening traffic thrums with urgency beneath heavy rain, and he knows if he trained his ear, he’d hear the city alive regardless with chatter and music. If he trained his nose, he’d smell the thickening, humid weather, the bay, the heady smells of gyoza and Takoyaki and tempura, cooking in spitting oil, but he doesn’t. No, what he does is keep looking at Lestat and thinking – not for the first time – that this has been a mistake. Thinks he has stayed too long here in Japan, even if it’s been just shy of two weeks.

    -

    It's been 18 months since they reunited, Lestat's on the cusp of fame, Louis' trying to be companion enough for himself, they're both a mess, but they both still want each other all the same.

    Summary

    “When you’re really worked up, you start speaking English. It’s attractive. Especially in bed.” Dongsik says, grinning at the embarrassed look Juwon shoots at him. “I’m curious. I don’t know much English, but you grew up in England. You never talk about it.”

    Juwon sits with the question for a moment, staring out the windshield. The reeds are golden in the sunlight, sibilant in the wind. Their pungent scent carries, and Dongsik smiles despite it. He’s grown used to this view, obstructed by Han Juwon. It’s Juwon that he stares at, and it’s Juwon who is the subject of his unending fascination.
