“You’re jealous,” Lestat guessed, pointing a playfully-accusing finger at Louis.
Louis wrinkled his nose. His blood rushed faster through his veins in protest. “You wish.”
“Is it so wrong if I do?” Lestat tilted his head. “Tell me, what is so bad about wanting you to want me?”
———

Summary
“I don’t want it, man! Is this how you were turned?!” Daniel demanded frantically. Armand’s obvious fear was scaring him. He was many things, but scared was never one of them. Now, trembling in front of Daniel like a lost child, he had never looked less like the ancient vampire he was.
There was a long stretch of silence before Armand answered with the worst thing he could have possibly said in that moment.
“Yes.”
———
When Armand’s automatic response to Daniel being sick is to finally turn him, Daniel has to deal with the unexpected aftermath of stupidly refusing the Dark Gift. -

Summary
The sex was only a fraction of their connection. Viktor was hungry for her guidance, and Mel was all too pleased to provide. She relished the nights spent in her study, engaging Viktor in a conversation one simply could not have with mere words. She spoke to him sternly, affection and control intertwining with themselves in her tone. Viktor did as he was told; a star pupil. His ravenous gaze observed and took notes of every new position they could manage to dream up. It was in these moments that Mel knew that their minds had far surpassed those of their peers at the Academy and on the Council.
They were a perfect match.
Nearly.
----
Mel and Viktor have entered a mutual understanding, but when Viktor's health takes a sharp decline, Mel finds herself pushed to the side. When will Viktor learn that all she wants to do is make him feel better?

Summary
“With perseverance, you’ll get back on the track again. Trust me.”
“I don’t recall ever seeing you on the track, Oka. Surely you’re not the best person to lecture me on perseverance,” Kaoru snapped.
Oka sighed again, trying not to respond carelessly. There was no denying it now: Kaoru had never really grown up. “I work with the skaters, Sakurayashiki.” He grasped for any shred of patience that he could find. “That’s more than you can say. And if it really comes to the point where you can’t skate anymore, you’ll do whatever you can to stay involved, too.”
---
Seven years pre-canon, Shokichi Oka was injured as a result of Adam's effects on the Okinawan skateboarding community, and he hasn't skated since. After the events of episode 9, Kojiro goes to Oka with a request: to talk to Kaoru about recovery.

Summary
[Post-Tale of the Body Thief, pre-Memnoch the Devil]
It’s Christmas Eve, 1992, New Orleans. Lestat and Louis are reunited, adjusting to this new chapter together in New Orleans. Lestat’s loyal companion Mojo might not have saved anyone from a burning building last year, but he has a role yet to play for his doting master and his master’s lover. Lestat has a gift for Louis.
Also: As soon as they returned from the Rio trip, David announced that he was going off on his own pilgrimage to settle mortal affairs and such. Lestat was shocked and injured, thinking that he finally had his little coven together, and tried to invite himself – claiming that he’d set up all the trusts for himself to keep his fortune flowing. He even wheedled David that there was much he didn’t know. Louis had come to Lestat privately and persuaded him that David needed the time alone and Lestat sulked for a few days before rallying and even being relieved.
