    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!”

    Summary

    This, I intended as the novel that Lestat writes some ten years after Blood Canticle. Subject to revision, probably.

    It is set in Mobile, Alabama, in 2010 against the backdrop of the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Lestat & Louis attempt an "adult" relationship by having couples therapy & Lestat attempts being a Serious Writer of Serious Novels, to some effect (he also plays in a covers band). But really it is about power, of multiple kinds. For example, to paraphrase Kurt Vonnegut Jnr., capitalism is present in this story about insecure, wealthy, white men in much the same manner that honey might be present in a story about bees.

    To wit, with regard to that: “it is always from the depths of its impotence that each power center draws its power, hence their extreme maliciousness, and vanity.” (Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in Capitalism and Schizophrenia: A Thousand Plateaus). And that is what happens in this story, in between all the expansive long-take nothing, constant hipsterism and the periodic sexing and angsting.

    Summary

    Shortly after Queen of the Damned and 'The Devil's Minion', Armand's left alone and desolate in Night Island, his only fledgling having abandoned him. Thankfully, Louis still holds enough affection for the vampire he once found in Paris to help him through.

    I couldn't find any fics that extrapolated on missing scenes of Louis and Armand’s companionship between Night Island and the forming of their home in Trinity Gate. This fic fills that gap.

    Summary

    "You know this story, of the mortal ensnared by the beauty of the blood hunter. I gave you one version, yes, but it's a tale far older than me. Death and the maiden, Hades and Persephone, but who recalls of this tale the vampire and the boy? The world sees glittering frock coats, cherubic curls, flashes of auburn and amber perhaps if you consider yourself well read. But there is the youth and the undying as well, there is Louis and I."

    Almost 50 years after Daniel met Death in a San Francisco gay bar, through lust, desperation, addiction, madness and longing, he finds himself struggling to carve out a place for himself at court, among the society his own work set into motion. Coming to the end of his mortal lifespan, The Boy turns once more to words to heal his soul, writing now not another man's story, but his own.

    Summary

    Akasha is dead and Louis and Lestat have reached an impasse. They said many pretty things to one another when they reunited in California, but such promises are difficult to keep. Healing is a messy process, especially with 200 years to unpack and more toxic habits than you can shake a stick at. They're in love, they have been since 1791, but it turns out they might actually like each other too.
    -
    In which Louis and Lestat clobber each other with their respective baggage, argue in various locales, and make their own happy ending.
