Vamptember Day 28 - Free Day

{elliott smith - tomorrow tomorrow}

He hears Marius’s voice from down the hall.

And not that hearing him is that interesting—Daniel hears quite well these days. And not that he’s even shouting. It’s just that he’s talking at all, that there are two voices, that someone is down here in their room.

Daniel swings a shopping bag in his hand, listening more carefully as he approaches the door. Cracked open, barely even hiding the argument. 

“We’re not having this conversation again,” Marius says, and then the door is opening, and Marius is there, speaking over his shoulder, into the room. “I said no.”

He must see Daniel, but he heads off in the other direction. Moving with more noise than usual, making his displeasure known. Daniel stops, outside their door, watching the corner where Marius disappeared, wondering if he should follow.

Not uncommon, really, for Marius to head out for air. He gets claustrophobic here. Daniel tries to remember what his plans were—video games, he realizes—and thinks they can be spared. He’ll at least put his bag down, maybe change his clothes before he heads out for a rescue mission.

“You should let him leave,” the other voice says, standing just inside the open doorway now. “He needs time to think.”

Daniel chuckles. “Hey, Lestat.”

If it were someone else, Daniel could get away with a nod of the head, or maybe a little slap on the shoulder as he walks in. Someone else would also step aside, so that he can open the door, so that he can enter his own bedroom. 

Lestat just stands there, though. His eyes glint in amusement, aware of the challenge he’s issuing, pale blonde eyebrow quirking as Daniel steps closer.

The pat on the shoulder doesn’t work. And he’s so hard, so unmoving. Marius is old, and solid, but he doesn’t lock up like this, not on purpose. 

Lestat catches Daniel’s hand, tugging it towards his mouth before Daniel can ask him not to. And there’s a kiss to his knuckles, and a little smile. And then he’s leaning toward, kissing Daniel on the cheek.

But he eases back, then. Entry granted, and he turns to float deeper into the room as if it’s his. Daniel chews on his lip as he watches, and closes the door behind him, tosses his bag onto the table near the door.

Lestat flops onto their bed. 

It occurs to Daniel, suddenly, that they haven’t been alone together since Night Island. And  to look at him now—still a mess, his hair in a sloppy bun, last night’s makeup uneven on his face—it’s as if he’s a completely different thing these days. Still a mess, but the ebb and flow of his crises are like twins you can tell apart. Something here, in the too-relaxed posture. Something different now. All performance, the way he walks around like he owns the place (he does, of course), no shoes, and his sunglasses discarded onto the coffee table, and his shirt buttoned so low that one of his stark white nipples peeks out.

Daniel kicks his own shoes off and comes closer. 

“Christ, put your tits away,” he grumbles, and flops down onto Marius’s side of the bed. 

“Has Marius been himself?” Lestat asks, ignoring the barb. In fact, not putting his tits away. He stretches out enough to throw one of his legs over Daniel’s. 

“He’s fine.”

“He’s not being agreeable.”

Daniel laughs. He rolls his shoulders into the heat of the electric blankets, and realizes too late that he and Lestat are both rubbing the silky texture of the coverlet. Little embarrassing, the reminder that they’re such base tactile creatures.

“Do you think he’s different?” Daniel asks.

His fingers trace the seams in the coverlet, counting each stitch, putting his mind elsewhere so that Lestat won’t read him. He imagines his consciousness like a computer gadget, like one of those little flash drives, that he can unplug and tuck away. 

Doesn’t think about how, no, Marius hasn’t been himself. How it’s been worrying. How he finds Marius out in a clearing the woods, talking about going into the ground again. How Marius keeps daydreaming about his centuries with the Parents, and wondering why he never just put them in the sun. These last few months, he’s been less and less skilled at hiding it, so that Daniel catches it in the air, or sees it in his blood. 

Lestat doesn’t need to know all that. Daniel doesn’t trust him enough with that type of knowledge. Still worth asking, though. Lestat has known him longer, after all. 

“He seems unhappy.”

“And? None of you creeps are happy.”

Lestat sits up, leans on his elbow to gaze down at Daniel. Too pale in the dim light down here. His eyes too icy. Daniel feels for the stitches again, fills his head with useless phrases like Pythagorean theorem and My very educated mother just showed us nine planets and phospholipid bilayer. Tries to cover the jolt of discomfort and arousal that pools in his gut. 

“You’re one of us now, Daniel,” he says, and his teeth show too much, even as he tries to hold back his smile. “Are you unhappy?”

“I’m fine.”

“I heard you weren’t doing well.”

Daniel rolls his eyes. “Yeah, and? I heard you slept on a floor for two years.”

“Oh, but Marius didn’t scoop me up and take me to his cute little hytte did he?”

It should sound ruder. It should be more off-putting. Maybe Marius had been deteriorating, just a little, back in Rio, but they’d been happy enough. It feels strange, to have uprooted their comfortable life there to show up for Lestat, and for him to behave this way. 

“You insult me,” Lestat says, and is he batting his eyelashes? “I’m just curious.”

And, fuck. Didn’t hide it well enough. But that’s rude, too, isn’t it? Prodding in Daniel’s head when he shouldn’t.

“Why shouldn’t I?” 

The charm is so disarming. The way he smiles, the way he drops back down to the mattress. Somehow he lands closer than he was before. 

“I’m serious, Lestat,” Daniel tries again. Studies his face, looking for clues if he should be distrustful, but there’s only the open amusement, the sincere curiosity. “Does he seem different to you? You’ve known him for such a long time.”

“Oh, I don’t know,” Lestat shrugs. “You’ve spent more time with him than I have, really. He’s never tolerated me for very long.”

“Yeah. Fair.” He’s drunk so much of Marius’s blood by now. He flexes his fingers, as if he can feel it in his body. “I just can’t tell, sometimes. If he’s always been like this. Or if it’s because… I don’t know.”

Lestat’s eyebrow raises. He reaches for the same seam in the coverlet, so that his fingers graze alongside Daniel’s. “Because he needs a project?”

Marius might kill him, Daniel realizes, for discussing this with someone else. And he should end the conversation before it gets messier, before he betrays more of Marius’s confidence.

“It’s not a big secret,” Lestat says. “And I’m not stupid.”

“I didn’t say you were stupid.”

“You think I asked him here for my own benefit?”

Well, yes. 

Daniel stares. Tries to remember, about Lestat. It’s easy to cut corners with him, easy to forget how… human he is, if that’s the right word. 

It clicks in his head, as he stares. Human is the right word, truly. That’s the thing Daniel was missing for all those years. The thing Marius has been trying to connect with. It’s easy to only think of Lestat’s antics, and his ego, and the broken things he leaves in his wake. Easy to forget how deeply he loves, or yearns, or hurts.

“Of course I wanted him here,” Lestat says, to fill the silence. “But you know him as well as any of us. He needs things.”

He’s too pretty up close. Too young. Daniel realizes, as he stares, that if he’d found Lestat when he’d tried to, all those years ago, maybe Daniel would be that young, too. Things might have been so different for him.

“I wonder about him, though.” Lestat reaches out, brushes a strand of hair from Daniel’s eyes. Smooths his thumb across Daniel’s brow. “If coming here helped. Maybe the burden is too much. I didn’t think it would take so long for him to adjust.”

“It’s what you wanted, though, right? Someone to keep you in check.”

“He’s been unreasonable. Treats me like a child.”

“Cut the shit.”

Lestat’s eyes glimmer a little too much, so that he can’t even pretend that he’s offended, or confused. Knows exactly what Daniel means. Still, he presses a hand to his chest in mock surprise. 

“It’s an upgrade, you know, that my father isn’t here anymore. Takes two hundred years to purge his rancid energy from the walls. I don’t need Marius filling in for him.”

“Yes you do. That’s exactly what you need. You know that.”

Lestat’s eyes go hazy. His fingers reach for Daniel’s, nails scratching gently across Daniel’s knuckles, light enough that it tingles in Daniel’s scalp.

They’re right, now that Daniel knows to look for it. Everyone who says how similar they are. He can see it this close—imagines Marius when he was this young, when the Blood was still a bit wild in him. Those early centuries, with Pandora, trying to get his new nature to fit. 

It makes him wonder what Lestat will be like in a few more centuries, or in a thousand years, maybe as old as Marius one day. Old like the First Brood that linger around sometimes. 

Makes him wonder if he’ll even be around to see it. 

“Why do you need his approval so bad, anyway?” Daniel asks, even though he knows the answer.

Lestat perches up again, staring down at Daniel for a moment before surging down, tangling their legs together, pulling in close. A hand in Daniel’s hair, the other curled around his forearm. Lips brushing across Daniel’s cheek to speak low by his ear.

“If I bit you, would you stop me?”

Daniel shifts beneath him, half-heartedly testing Lestat’s hold on him. Solid. Like how Marius can be. 

“Would I? Or could I?”

The smile shows his teeth. 

“I bet you taste like him,” he says. He dips his head to breathe against Daniel’s throat. “Like both of them, actually.”

“Both of who?”

“Marius and your maker.”

Oh.

“He saved himself all those years, and picked… you.”

“Yeah, yeah,” Daniel rolls his eyes. He stares up at the ceiling. Heart skips as he tries to shove Lestat away, only to feel the solid unmoving mass of him. “Knock it off.”

The fuck did Marius go, anyway? How long as he been gone?

“Oh, it would be delightful for him to return now,” Lestat says. The words slur against Daniel’s skin. “I wonder what he’d think of us.”

Daniel grunts a laugh, in spite of himself. “You know… Pandora told me one time that we could pass for brothers. That we look like his sons.”

Cold wet press of Lestat’s tongue against a throbbing artery. 

“Well Santino told me one time,” Lestat mumbles into him, “that the only reason Marius was kind to me is because I remind him of himself. That it was only an extension of his ego.”

His hand drifts, down across Daniel’s chest, to the hem of his shirt. Slipping his fingers beneath, to feel Daniel’s skin. He sucks at Daniel’s pulse, his palm crushing against the crest of Daniel’s hip bone.

Thirst flushes through Daniel’s body. His hands hover, almost settling on Lestat’s hips, almost encouraging him but he squeezes his eyes shut. Squeezes his hands into fists.

It wasn’t like this, last time they were alone.

Back on Night Island.

Lestat, holed up in that room, scrawling notes and notes and notes when he wasn’t pounding at the typewriter. The way he’d sat with each of them, trying to make sense of what happened. The strange broken softness as he asked Daniel question after question about Armand. Like an empty shell. 

Marius, too, really. The two of them were the only among them who understand the true grief. Daniel hadn’t gotten to know either of them the way he wanted to. 

The Daniel of back then would’ve given anything for this type of tryst. 

Even the Daniel before that, as a naive manic twenty year old, pressing his face to the dusty floors or a rotting old house. Pressing his lips to a broken old pocket watch. 

You could have been my maker.

In another life. Daniel’s head spins as he tries to picture it. He finally grabs Lestat by the waist. Turning his head to inhale the unruly blonde curls. It makes him laugh. And laugh. And laugh.

Ridiculous thought, now that he knows better. And he’s not sure he wants to trade anymore. 

“Take me hunting,” Daniel says. 

Lestat lifts his head. Kisses the corner of Daniel’s jaw. Blinks down at him.

“Take me hunting,” he says again. “Let me watch you.” 

[armandfucker]

“Did you fuck my maker, Lestat?” Asked Daniel through gritted teeth.

“I fucked him before he was your maker. I think that means I win.” And Daniel had never wanted to punch a smirk off someone’s face more than that moment.

(And then they fuck about it.)

I'm working on something I hope to have published before ep7, but that doesn’t have any Daniel in it and I was starting to get old man snark withdrawal. Plus, for all my big talk with my own fat mouth, it's actually been ages since I posted any actual old man yaoi. So I dusted off this random ass WIP.

Tl;dr: Choices were made, fictional old men were fellated. 🤷‍♀️

Under the Moon

Mermay ~ Week 4.5: Under the Moon

“Get your hands off my fledgling, Lestat.” Armand suddenly sits upright and glares daggers into him. 

While still looking at Daniel, Lestat replies with, “You have my fledgling, why shouldn’t I steal yours? Just for tonight.” He leans into Daniel, their lips only just touching when he’s sent toppling into the sea with Daniel only just managing to keep himself from falling too. 

Armand’s smug expression greets Lestat as he wipes the water from his eyes. “I did warn you, you just chose not to listen.” 

A disgruntled noise comes from Lestat as he hauls himself out of the water and strides over to Armand, who stands his ground, still with a smug look on his face. Lestat stops directly in front of him, forcing Armand to have to tilt his head up slightly to look at him properly. 

“I can look after myself, y'know boss.” Daniel says from the sidelines. “It’s really not that big of a deal. It’s not like I minded or anything.” The last bit he says under his breath but Lestat catches it regardless. 

“See? Daniel’s fine and he didn’t mind.” 

“That’s not the point.” Armand retorts. “He’s my fledgling and I specifically told you to stay off him but you didn’t listen, as usual.” 

A huff comes from the side. “I’m not your property.” 

“It appears your fledgling has spoken.” Lestat’s tone is mocking in its attempt to placate Armand.

The City Never Sleeps - A Lestat/Daniel Story

Today is the TWO YEAR Anniversary of The City Never Sleeps, one of the best fics I've written IMHO.

In the Court Era, Lestat shows up at Trinity Gate to find that Armand is not home, so Daniel has to entertain him. He decides to give Lestat the Daniel Molloy Tour of New York City Circa 1979. They talk, they angst, they make out a little. Armand is very much present in their minds.

It's 3 Chapters, 13,024 words, originally published 2 years ago today on April 4, 2023. I know Lestat/Daniel is kind of a rarepair but I really enjoy their dynamic together and this fic was months in the making. I wanted to celebrate it now because I'm still so proud of how this fic turned out and because of how older fic gets lost in the shuffle. Also it was, at the time, the longest fic I'd written!

It's kind of dialogue-heavy but hopefully funny, entertaining, and heartfelt and there's a hot make out scene. There's angst! There's flirting! There's a lot of talk about Armand!

If you want a fic that explores Lestat and Daniel's bromance with benefits, here it is!

Thanks for letting me celebrate this milestone!!

Short Excerpt:

Inside, books lay discarded on the large oak table and a figure lay sprawled on the reading couch, a velvet green monstrosity. Lestat wore black pants and a elegant silken long-sleeved shirt with a ruffled collar, as if he’d stepped out of the 1800s. His feet were clad in leather boots and were propped up on the arm rest on the left side of the sofa, while he reclined the against the right side. His blond hair was loose and cascaded down around his shoulders. He held a book but didn’t appear to be reading. He wouldn’t have looked out of place on the cover of a romance novel. 

Daniel looked down at himself. He was in travel clothes—worn jeans with a few tears and a sweatshirt with fraying cuffs, the sort of thing Armand would discreetly throw in the trash when he thought Daniel wouldn’t notice. His own blond hair was messy and unkempt and his purple chucks were dirty. 

Lestat turned his head toward Daniel in the doorway. “Ah, finally, signs of life! I was beginning to think to this place had been abandoned.” 

“Yeah, you know Armand, loves to build massive estates and then leave them to rot and ruin.” Daniel joked. “What are you doing here?” 

Lestat sat up and tossed the book on the table next to the sofa. “Is that the sort of hospitality Armand taught you? Are you going to evict me next?” 

Daniel snorted. “As if Armand would ever kick you out. I just thought you were busy at Court.” 

“Am I not allowed a break? I agreed to be the Prince, not a hostage.” 

Daniel rolled his eyes. “Just asking. Besides, I thought Louis went there to visit you.” 

“He had to make a trip to Paris. I believe he had some business regarding his flat there.” 

Daniel highly doubted Louis had left Court for business reasons. He suspected they’d had a fight of some sort. But he decided to leave that alone for now. 

“Where’s your Maker and his brood?” Lestat asked. 

Daniel pulled out his phone. No messages. He shot Armand a quick “Back home. Where are you?” text and then slid it back into his pocket. 

“Don’t know. They’ve been following this band on tour sporadically. Or maybe they went to Court. That’d be ironic, huh?” Daniel smiled. Lestat huffed out a breath. “Did he know you were coming?” 

Lestat leapt to his feet. “Of course not. I intended to use the element of surprise to my advantage.” 

Daniel’s phone buzzed and he pulled it from his pocket. Armand had texted back. He read it over. “Bad news, Big Guy. They’re in Seattle til Friday.” 

Lestat didn’t quite pout but he was on the verge of doing so. 

The end of Armand’s message read, “Unless there’s an urgent matter I need to attend to.” A plea for help? Daniel smiled. Armand loved Sybelle and Benji, but Sybelle’s infatuation with this band was intense. 

Did Armand want him to invent a reason for him to come back or was he merely letting Daniel know that he could? Daniel replied: “No emergency, but Le Prince is here. He wants to see you.” Daniel added a winky emoji. There. If Armand wanted to use that as a reason to cut their trip short, he could. If not, he could ignore it. 

“Looks like it’s just me and you for now,” Daniel said. 

Lestat’s face shifted, and Daniel saw a hint of something—Disappointment? Hurt?—before his signature winning smile returned. He clapped Daniel on the back a little too hard, making Daniel jolt forward and nearly drop his phone. “Then let’s make the most of it. What do you do for fun around here?”
