    Summary

    “Petra tou Romiou, huh? Didn’t figure you one for tourist traps,” Daniel offers into the night air.

    "They say that Venus, Aphrodite, whichever name you know her by, emerged from the sea foam here. She was never a baby, or a child, she emerged beautiful, with love and lust and desire following behind her,” Armand recounts.

    “Yeah, this is her rock we’re sitting on, apparently," Daniel agrees non-committedly. "Cut the bullshit, we need to talk.”

    Armand says nothing. Continues staring out at the ocean.

    “Look at me,” Daniel hisses.

    Armand turns to face him, and the breath is punched out of his chest.

    Seeing him again, in the flesh, beautiful and inhuman, Daniel is forced to remember that this is not just another story he has been chasing. There is no book at the end of this year's long line of inquiry, no documentary or Pulitzer-winning article. No professional detachment. There is just this—two monsters on a beach and a horrible amalgamation of emotions that fill Daniel’s rotted heart and scarred throat.

    Summary

    The story goes like this:
    In 1973, Armand met a beautiful boy and chased him around the world, until the boy finally stopped running and started loving him back.
    In 1985, Armand erased all of the boy's memories, and let him go to live a normal human life.
    In 2022, Armand was desperate and heartbroken enough to bind them together forever.

    That's the story... according to Armand, who can't string three words together without sneaking a gaslighting attempt in.
    So yeah.
    No.

     

    Or: Armand tells Daniel the "truth" about their relationship after '73. Daniel calls bullshit.

    Summary

    It is said in the days after Paul Atreides was stolen away from Caladan that Duke Leto Atreides and the Lady Jessica bewailed that the Emperor had ever requested those of the Landsraad, all of the Great Houses, Major and Minor, to attend him at Kaitain, for it was there that Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen first saw their son and connived to have him. The Harkonnen's plan bore fruit three years later, when, after celebrations for Paul Atreides's coming of age, the heir to the storied and honorable House was kidnapped and brought to Giedi Prime, whereupon the na-baron declared him his husband and mate.

    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

    The woman ties the end of Namor’s clothes to Shuri’s, then prays. Or, Shuri thinks it’s praying, except that the woman’s head bends towards Namor. It’s like if I got married to Bast, Shuri realizes, and it’s a miracle she doesn’t burst into laughter right then and there, at her own wedding, thirty-thousand feet under the sea.

    -

    (In exchange for the safety of Riri Williams, Shuri agrees to rule alongside Namor of Talokan as his wife.)
