Summary
When Charles and Edwin return from Hell and the States, they turn out to need to rest much more than before. While they nap on their sofa, they figure out a new way to ease both of their minds - yes, it's platonic (ish) kink.
For Day 1 of the DBDA Potion Week: TRUTH POTION. There's no literal truth potion in this though, just the sweetness of the boys' discovery.

Summary
The ghosts managed to escape the predator's trap but only just, and not before falling victim to its transformative magic. Their long, comfortable existence was shattered in an instant as Edwin emerged a living human being, the rushing of his blood booming in the ears of Charles, freshly-minted vampire.
Horrified and desperate to find a way back, Edwin searches for a solution while Charles' thirst burns.
Above it all shrieked his towering thirst. Brand new and full grown, it was a howling need so insistent it seemed to twist within his flesh; a burning, reverberating agony.
And still, there was one thing louder.
Because there sat Edwin, looking down at him with dark circles under wide, frightened eyes, ripe fruit hanging low. He was coursing with hot, living blood, exquisitely defenseless, and Charles’ hunger demanded that he crush this easy prey. That he devour him. His bloodlust was an elemental instinct urging him irresistibly on, powerful and relentless as a tidal wave.
Charles clenched his jaw and steadied himself, refusing.

Summary
Armand feeds him from the wrist and Daniel is unmade, pulled like the end of a slipknot until he once more is a thing unformed. A blank slate, tabula rasa, wiped clean. A sand castle at high tide. A snake eating its own tail.
Everything eats itself in the end, comes back to where it started, and Daniel is no different. His blood is Armand’s blood is his blood, and when he gulps down mouthful after mouthful, Armand’s hand feverishly massaging his throat to aid the weak, dying muscles in forcing it down, it is himself he is drinking from.
He is at the bottom of it all. He is at the place from before the bottom even existed, the place that always was. He is woven into nothing and back again. He is woven into nothing and it is woven into him. He is woven, and unwoven, and hungry, and woven, and starving, and woven.
Starving, starving, starving. Like the ringing of an alarm clock. Eat, you stupid motherfucker. Feed.
He thought he knew before, when he was just a dumb addict. What it means to be hungry.
He had no fucking idea.

Armand, Daniel, and a lesson in taking the long way home.

Summary
“Will you promise me something?” Edwin asks.
“Anything,” Charles swears, and means it.
“Promise me you won’t do this again. Promise me you won’t risk my father’s anger, even if it’s for my own sake.”
“Edwin,” Charles says, gutted, because that’s like trying to tell his own heart not to beat in his chest. It’s just not possible.
“You said anything. Promise me,” Edwin orders. “As prince I command it.” He pulls back to look Charles in the eye. Charles tries to duck his head, avoid that clear gaze, but Edwin catches him by the chin and forces it. “Please.”
