    Summary

    In the face of his imminent probable death at the hands of a jilted vampire, Daniel makes himself an omelet.

    He expects Armand to wander into the kitchen at some point like an affronted cat and give Daniel one of those politely murderous looks of his, but he doesn’t. The house is deathly quiet. The staff have all long gone. Louis called this his coffin once—it feels like that now.

    Summary

    It's all so cliche: Boy meets vampire, vampire stalks boy, boy falls in love with vampire, vampire engages in torrid love affair with boy, boy asks to become vampire, vampire performs a lobotomy on boy, boy comes back fifty years later to ruin vampire's life, vampire turns boy into an undead creature of the night and fucks off into the ether.

    Okay, maybe it's not cliche, but Daniel does feel like he's living in a bizarro-world rom-com.

    Maybe it's not cliche, but Armand knew the second he lied to Louis, the second he erased Daniel's memories, that the bill would come due eventually.

    Edit 2026: Minor revisions, spelling and grammar adjustments.

    Summary

    Daniel's getting older, but not any better at coping. Armand hasn't gotten any older in centuries. For nearly a decade now, Daniel's been able to exist mostly detached from mortal life. That isn't true anymore.

    Summary

    Daniel is dying, and Armand can’t save him any more than he can save himself. He will not turn Daniel into the monster he is, he will not put an end to his misery by killing him gently, he will not sit beside him to watch him die. Armand is, at heart, a selfish creature.

    Perhaps it’s that selfishness what makes him fall to his kneel before Louis, his companion, his victim, and beg him to turn the boy.
