    Summary

    "I didn't know," he murmured, hand coming up to the old-fashioned tie at the neck of my linen shirt and pulling it loose, "that it could be like this."

    I swallowed hard, and tilted my head away from him, baring my neck. I could feel the pulse of my preternatural heart through my veins, each beat sounding the word: yes, yes, yes.

    Set during Merrick in Chapter 24, after Louis is brought back to life. This is Lestat's narrative of the blood sharing scene that we/David don't get to see.

    Summary

    Lestat's newest petty tactic to show Louis how mad he is happens to be starving himself for a week, refusing to feed even once.
    Louis knows Lestat, and thus knows that a good fuck and a few sweet words is enough to make Lestat eat AND draw out an apology.

    Summary

    There’s a moment where neither move. Then the energy shifts, ever so slightly, but enough to bring them back to reality. Lestat coughs once, then shakes his head, sending his blonde strands behind him. “You must be tired,” Lestat says. “And this storm… I— I have a guest room, if you…”

    “A guest room?” Louis smiles, amazed, and when Lestat tilts his head and squints his eyes, a slow smile tugging at the corners of his mouth—

    Louis is home.

    -

    Part reaction to the new teaser ("you want me to come and see your guest room?"), part exploration of Louis and Lestat’s reunion after Season 2. Or, all about the moments that bring them home.

    Summary

    A notification on Lestat’s iPad takes him out of his daydream and he scrunches his face in confusion. Louis continues to speak but his voice fades to the background as Lestat can’t believe what he is seeing.

    “Louis,” Lestat asks carefully, “did you send me an airline booking confirmation?”
