    Summary

    Of course Armand noticed that Daniel had a habit of scribbling in a notebook whenever he wasn’t interviewing. He notices everything.
    It’s just that he was so careful not to be curious about Daniel, not to poke around, not to think about him. It takes him by surprise, in the end.

     

    (no one has painted Armand in over 400 years. Daniel keeps drawing something in his notebook.)

    Summary

    Daniel is sprawled out across the bed, loose-limbed and lazy, somehow filling all the open space it has to offer and leaving Armand to nestle into the gaps. His cheeks are flushed, blood pooling like it knows what comes next. Maybe it does. Armand was reading about classical conditioning the other day. About dogs who become accustomed to getting food when their handler rings a bell.

    Perhaps Daniel is the dog, Armand’s teeth sharp bells reverberating in his veins. Or perhaps Armand is the dog, Daniel’s blood a song rattling in his ears. He has been a dog before. He runs his tongue along the bow of Daniel’s collarbone, gathers the salt-sweat there and imagines what it tastes like because Daniel does.


    Armand remembers he loved Daniel, once, and that Daniel loved him. Or a version of them did, at least. It isn't his intention to go back to that, but it's not not his intention, either. Such is the prerogative of an immortal: to hold two contradicting desires simultaneously. If nothing else, it passes the time while he waits for this miserable interview to end.

    Summary

    Lestat and Daniel bond, and Lestat has a fun idea to lure Armand out of hiding!

     

    “No,” Lestat agrees. “You won’t be able to find him if he doesn’t want to be found.”

    “Then wh—”

    “However, there are ways of persuading him to come to you.”

    “And how am I supposed to do that?” Daniel asks with more desperation than he would like. “He made it pretty clear he doesn’t give a shit about me when he left me retching on the floor of his ex-husband’s fancy penthouse.”

    Summary

    The story goes like this:
    In 1973, Armand met a beautiful boy and chased him around the world, until the boy finally stopped running and started loving him back.
    In 1985, Armand erased all of the boy's memories, and let him go to live a normal human life.
    In 2022, Armand was desperate and heartbroken enough to bind them together forever.

    That's the story... according to Armand, who can't string three words together without sneaking a gaslighting attempt in.
    So yeah.
    No.

     

    Or: Armand tells Daniel the "truth" about their relationship after '73. Daniel calls bullshit.
