    Summary

    Mel King is wearing a dress.

    And it’s not like he thought Mel was going to show up in her hospital scrubs - he knew she was going to wear a dress. He just hadn’t given himself enough time to prepare for it, because he is, above all things, a world class idiot.

    So he hadn’t prepared for it. Seeing her in a dress, which is dark blue and hugs her hips until it flares out at the bottom and makes her look like a fucking mermaid. Watching her twirl around on the dance floor after Mohan and Javadi goad her into it, all of them a glass of wine or two into the evening, cheeks pinker than normal because of the alcohol and highlighted to shit because of the makeup. And then he’s watching her face flush, watching her hide it behind her hands, but because he can’t tell from his position across the room whether she’s flushed because she’s embarrassed or flushed because she’s pleased with herself for what was a killer fucking twirl in a killer fucking dress, he doesn’t know whether the first thing he’s going to do when he corners her later is reassure her that she looked cute or ask her to twirl for him again and again and again until the whole world is spinning as much as his head.

    Summary

    It sucked to acknowledge what he'd done to anyone, obviously, but for some reason it always felt the worst in front of Mel, because she'd never once shown him even a hint of judgment for it. He could list every shitty fucking thing he did, all the drugs he stole, the lies he told, all of it, and Mel would just sit there and nod and tell him Okay, well, thank you for being honest with me.

    It wasn't that he didn't want her to do that. It was that he craved it so badly he couldn't stand it, needed her acceptance with an intensity he didn't know how to handle.

    "You have my credentials in there like it's a CV, you weirdo! All that you're missing is my NPI number!"

    "Well, how do you have me saved on your phone?" Walsh opens her contact card for him and flips the screen around so he can see Jack Abbot, ER douche. Frowning, he asks, "How is that better? If anything, it might be worse!"

    "At least it doesn't look like I hacked LinkedIn for your personal information."

    Summary

    Lestat does not have any fondness for people in giant suits pretending to be animals. Or for animatronics, which he finds creepier than he would like to admit, or for large groups of children – to be honest, any children that aren’t Claudia, at least for periods of time longer than a birthday party — and so when Louis had first floated the idea of Disney World, he had been less than enthusiastic.

    “But it’s in Florida,” he had said, dismayed.

    “Yeah,” Louis had replied, “but Orlando is pretty gay-friendly, and the parks definitely are. ‘Sides, we live in Louisiana, we can’t really talk.”

    Lestat had really meant that the humidity would be murder on his hair, but he had allowed Louis to think that homophobia was his primary concern.

    The de Pointe du Lac de Lioncourts take Disney World.

    (The intense tags are for references to Lestat’s and Louis’s own terrible childhoods: the worst thing that happens in this fic is someone mildly freaking out on a rollercoaster. Guess who.)

    Summary

    There are three options at the Farm: neck, wrist, or blood draw. As a donor, Louis is very clear about his preferences, but a new job traveling with the Vampire Lestat as one of his primary blood sources might test all of his resolve--and his shame.

    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

    As the dust settles, Louis tries to find back to life - maybe to find Lestat, definitely to find himself.
    As with all things, this is easier said than done though, their relationship has not been likened to a hurricane for nothing after all, and the devil is definitely in the details.

    Summary

    Whatever carefully blank expression Lestat is trying on disappears like a slap. “Armand made a fledgling. Why would he do that?” Lestat asks.

    “Oh, you know,” Louis says, watching the three dots of a new text pop up. “He knew Daniel was… important to me.”

    He means to say it with rueful annoyance, as if to say, “so he ruined him.” But as Daniel’s text comes in—the most important question I should have asked you in that fucking interview: where do you buy coke in Dubai?—Louis’s voice trails off, his words maybe lacking some of the bite.

    or

    Lestat misunderstands what Daniel is to Louis and tries to be a champ about it. Meanwhile Louis rediscovers his drug of choice—Lestat.

    Summary

    “I want it on record,” Lestat mewls in a voice that he knows Louis will detest, “that I did advise you to bring a better coat.”

    A flash of stunning emerald and stern-set brows confirms such detestation. It makes Lestat’s heart swell nonetheless. He tugs at Louis’ sleeve, lips twisting into a frown of disapproval as he feels of the material like a concerned mother.

    “Your old threadbare rags will do no good against the Auvergne winter.”

    Summary

    In which Daniel Molloy pulls himself together (then has another nervous breakdown, then pulls himself together again), Armand doesn't know what a 3D printer is, Benji has a Plan (of which Step H is roughly shaped like the movie The Parent Trap), and nobody here can keep their noses out of each other's business.

    (Or: In which the author is on a holy crusade to right the wrongs Anne committed in Blood Communion, such as not mentioning Daniel even once.)

    ***

    “People call in sometimes, and they say, ‘Whatever happened to the Vampire Daniel, anyway?’ What am I supposed to say, you know? ‘Oh, Daniel Molloy? Yeah, he lives in my house, he’s got a room up in the attic with some mad science experiments or something, we’re blood relatives, but I don’t know what’s going on with him; we don’t talk.’ Come on. That’s not responsible journalism. The people want to know!”
