    Summary

    “Do you feel it now?” Louis asks. “Have you felt hopeless since that stormy night, in your shack?”

    “Quite the contrary,” Lestat admits quietly. “But then again, I have a tendency to feel a spark of hope when you show up in my life.”

    Or: The phone call that Louis has been waiting for (re)opens the door to something deeper.

    Summary

    Hedonist that he is, Lestat has never particularly cared to be held to the constraints of a schedule. Louis may enjoy the routine and predictability of something as prosaic as the requirements of managing a business–one of his many little idiosyncrasies that Lestat simultaneously enjoys and is frequently irritated by–but for him? Non. He can enjoy the artistry of a well-planned ball or the satisfaction of a business deal well-struck, but he’s always enjoyed the freedom of not quite knowing what’s coming next. In a long, long life, it’s far too easy to fall into a rut and find oneself constrained to it for decades before noticing.

    Even with his taste for surprise, however, Louis holding out a tiny, sooty, sniffling child is a shock he is not best pleased by.

    He flicks his eyes up from the big-eyed, dripping moppet, raising a brow and feeling his lip curl slightly in distaste. The child reeks of smoke and fear and God only knows what else.

    “Put it back,” he says flatly.

    (AU based on the idea of Louis finding Claudia at the age of five like in the book but raising her until she's old enough to be changed) (marked complete because each chapter can stand alone but will be updated)

    Summary

    The panel of floorboards the motherfucker nailed together as a lid finally lifts, and Claudia swallows her anticipatory fear enough to hiss. He wants her to beg, wants her to cry, wants her to be soft and fragile to match her goddamn mistake of a porcelain doll body. She won’t, though. That’s one thing he will never be able to take from her, no matter how hard he tries. She won’t-

    “Well now, ma petite tueuse,” comes a voice so familiar it registers like ice sliding down her spine, “what fresh chaos have you managed now?”

    (Canon divergence in which Lestat goes to find Claudia after she runs away and finds her where she's being held by Bruce.)

    Summary

    5+1 times Louis didn't say I love you out loud and the one time he did.

    aka: being in a situationship with your ex-husband and love of your eternal life while pretending that you have no feelings whatsoever for each other is going great for Louis and Lestat, thanks. (Daniel would beg to differ.)
