    Summary

    It’s a luxury model, but compared to how they’ve been living, it is still tiny. With the bedroom door open, Louis can see the entirety of the space wherever he stands.

    He can’t help but wonder if they will last the week.

    --

    Louis and Lestat move out into the Nevada desert in the hopes of some peace to recover from recent events. Along the way, they might do something about ancient ones, too.

    Summary

    Louis throws back the last of his sazerac and clicks into the call two minutes late on purpose, his laptop propped on the kitchen table in the middle of a quiet day – a rarity these days, but Claudia is at school and he has about forty minutes before he has to go get her.

    “Mr. du Lac,” the boy says, tongue curling over the consonants and in his voice, Louis thinks, home. The thought is unsteadying, which makes Louis’ defense system instantly come up. He’s supposed to be in control here.

    It’s probably the French, he knows. He doesn’t get to hear it often here in LA.

    After their previous one quits without a proper notice, Louis caves and hires another au pair for Claudia. He expects him to fail. Lestat has other plans.

    Summary

    “I found myself in deep conversation with my companion,” begins Armand. “About this ill-advised concert tomorrow night…”

    Lestat rolls his eyes. “You want to stop me. You can’t.”

    “Oh, I will.” Armand finally makes eye contact with Lestat, in his unnerving way, that makes it feel like he’s looking directly into your soul. 

    “And how will you do that?” He opens his arms, palms-up. “Tie me down, shove a stick of dynamite down my throat? Cut my head off, set me on fire, like you did with the Old ones in the catacombs?”

    “All good ideas, only it would be a shame to kill you,” says Armand. “I only need you out of commission long enough to miss the concert. A beheading would do it, I’m sure. You would survive, of course, long enough for re-assembly, but I cannot say the same for your child.”

    Louis looks from Lestat to Armand and Daniel, utterly confused. For once, it’s Lestat wearing the half-blank, half-apocalyptic expression.

    Summary

    They’ve taken him.

    The world spins wildly. A moon without an axis, a planet without a star. His breath stutters in his chest.

    “I’ll be there by dusk,” Louis says, and hangs up before he can do something ridiculous like sob.

    -

    Or: Daniel doesn’t make it to the eighth floor in time. And Louis remembers that the most precious things are also the most fragile.

    Summary

    Lestat disappears without a word.

    Seven months later, Louis drags him home.

    Rebuilding their relationship proves complicated when Lestat insists on being an unrepentant brat—flirting with strangers, stealing Louis's expensive chocolate, arguing about Mozart, and treating every boundary as a personal challenge.

    Then Louis starts noticing the things beneath the performance.

    The endless apologies. The permission asked for without thinking. The lights left burning. The nightmares. The smile that appears just a little too quickly.

    Some people hide their wounds behind silence.

    Lestat hides his behind smile.
