    Summary

    The first surprise (besides seeing a fledgling vampire gathering rats on Rue Royale, besides feeling Lestat’s presence like an electric-shock hum beneath his skin as he followed that same fledgling into grimier, rundown corners of the city that was his, once, besides seeing Lestat miserable and quiet and clutching at his wooden mockery of a piano) is that it’s Lestat who pulls away first. The second surprise is the reason why.

    Summary

    ”Is that all he did? He just left you alone there the whole night after drinking from you?” Daniel asks skeptically.

    That doesn’t make sense, and it feels like Lestat is keeping something from him. Why would Magnus keep him as a prisoner for so long only to do nothing with him?

    Lestat stares at him unblinkingly, before sneering. “Oh, I see why Armand wants you. You’re a sick fucker, aren’t you? You were even as a human.”

    ******

    Two interviews and three vampires later, Daniel still hasn't learned that prying is not always the wise thing to do.

    Summary

    Louis was not feeling especially charitable towards him at the moment, so as far as true love’s kiss went (a cliche, as if getting cursed wasn't bad enough), Lestat would be getting nowhere.

    But it didn’t matter at all. Lestat was scared and miserable and he had a tail and he needed to see him.

    Lestat gets on the bad side of a witch. Louis, against his better judgement, gets a cat.

    Summary

    Louis and Lestat divorced eight years ago and, in that time, have been for the lack of a better word ignoring each other, while also co-parenting Claudia. When she graduates high school though, she has the idea of going on a "family holiday" to celebrate this milestone. Louis hates the idea but can't say no to his daughter. But he is adamant that he will spend the whole trip spending as little time in Lestat's presence as humanly possible. No complicated feelings and no dredged-up memories. Right?

    Summary

    It begins when Louis receives a handwritten letter nearly three years after their stormy reunion in New Orleans, coinciding with Lestat's highly anticipated second album release.

    Or, Lestat is on a healing journey and Louis suddenly realizes he doesn't want him to be better at all- Louis wants to be worse with him.

    And-

    Maybe Louis will go and find some handsome Italian man, flaunt him in front of Lestat, and possibly even fuck him somewhere Lestat can hear. That'll get Lestat's blood boiling, and he'll definitely pursue Louis once again. Maybe Lestat will even kill the poor guy in a jealous rage, and then they'll end up together again, covered in blood and feral for each other in the best of ways. Isn't that how it's always destined to be?

    Summary

    “You miss him.”

    Louis whips his head to face Armand. He doesn’t answer, but his reaction can hardly go unnoticed.

    “I do not need to see your thoughts to know it. It is written in everything you do—your body language, the way you talk about him, the way your emotions come to the surface even when you try to repress them.” Armand pauses. “You miss him. I suppose it would be strange if you did not.”

    Or: Louis' love for Lestat bleeds through no matter what he does. Everyone can see it, except the one who needs to.

    Summary

    “That’s the thing, Louis.” Lestat offers him a small smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. “I finally understand why you couldn’t love me back. It wasn’t easy to accept, but it’s time for me to be selfless and do the right thing.”

    Louis can't stand the silence that follows. “What's the right thing to do, Lestat?”

    “It’s time for me to let you go.”

    Or: Lestat decides that it's time to part ways. Louis has a problem with that.

    Summary

    When they first separated, Louis and Lestat had both agreed to keep the courts out of their custody plans. Unsurprisingly, it was Louis who proposed and finalized their schedule, knowing Lestat would simply agree to whatever it was Louis had decided.
    First rule of drop off was that it had to occur in a public setting. It kept the situation amicable, and most importantly, it kept Lestat behaving (most of the time). They would meet on Fridays for Lestat to pick up Claudia, and then again on Sundays for Louis to get her back.

    Or, Louis and Lestat navigate co-parenting Claudia and their feelings for each other as a recently divorced couple.

    Summary

    Louis knows the risks.

    It’s why he’s taken a great deal of caution since his reunion with Lestat. He’s kept contact to a minimum, responding only every so often to the barrage of messages that his maker has sent his way ever since Daniel gave him Louis’ cellphone number. Thankfully, Lestat doesn’t seem to expect a response, as the messages continue even when Louis hasn’t replied for days, weeks. Most of it is mundane, random musings or an update on how the tour is going, and when he really demands Louis’ attention, he FaceTimes him.

    ——————

    OR: Louis tries to navigate having Lestat back in his life without it becoming as all-consuming as it was in the past, to varying results.

    Summary

    Louis came to visit Lestat on set but then their awkward, and definitely "platonic", relationship attempts to continue.

    The problem is they now both have cell phones, DoorDash, clubbing, Daniel Molloy, and too much sexual tension.

    Surely, eventually, they'll have to fuck.... right?

    Summary

    “Ah, leave the… leave the piano,” Louis said carefully, eyeing the dingy plank of wood held under Lestat’s arm. Lestat looked down at it, then back at him, brow furrowed, expression hopelessly lost.

    “But, I need to practice, my tour—”

    “We’ll get you a real—” Louis winced as the word real caused Lestat’s shoulders to hunch. “A new piano, a nicer one.”
