    Summary

    Whatever carefully blank expression Lestat is trying on disappears like a slap. “Armand made a fledgling. Why would he do that?” Lestat asks.

    “Oh, you know,” Louis says, watching the three dots of a new text pop up. “He knew Daniel was… important to me.”

    He means to say it with rueful annoyance, as if to say, “so he ruined him.” But as Daniel’s text comes in—the most important question I should have asked you in that fucking interview: where do you buy coke in Dubai?—Louis’s voice trails off, his words maybe lacking some of the bite.

    or

    Lestat misunderstands what Daniel is to Louis and tries to be a champ about it. Meanwhile Louis rediscovers his drug of choice—Lestat.

    Summary

    He knows what Daniel is about to say before he begins.

    “Yeah, hey listen. I got some fact checking to do—”

    “I’ve told you, Daniel. I’ve given my story. He can give his. I declined to participate in this documentary—”

    “I watched you feed on Armand in Dubai, right? I’m not making that up?”

    Louis’s hands pause. That wasn’t what he was expecting at all.

    Or

    For 114 years, Louis had an aversion to drinking Lestat's blood, but not for the reason Lestat thinks. Daniel reaches out to Louis for a fact check.

    Summary

    “Claudia?”

    Clauda lets out a breath. She comes back to herself, all the tension falling from her shoulders.

    “The pieces of me that want to go bang,” she admits through narrowed lips, “well, they’re kinda rattlin’ around right now.”

    Summary

    The first surprise (besides seeing a fledgling vampire gathering rats on Rue Royale, besides feeling Lestat’s presence like an electric-shock hum beneath his skin as he followed that same fledgling into grimier, rundown corners of the city that was his, once, besides seeing Lestat miserable and quiet and clutching at his wooden mockery of a piano) is that it’s Lestat who pulls away first. The second surprise is the reason why.
