Summary
There’s a child of the Renaissance in Daniel's living room.
A contemporary of Michaelangelo is watching a thrifted Blu-Ray copy of Finding Nemo on his ten-year old television. He’s disturbingly engrossed. He likes the part where the little girl shakes the fish in the plastic bag; he laughs. He’s wearing socks with tiny rabbits printed on them, and they make hypnotic patterns as he rubs his feet together subtly, like a scheming evil fly.
Big biting insect, ominous presence, nighttime creature. Sharing the sofa with a nuclear warhead. The creep says, “The artistic direction of this film is superb, beloved.”

Summary
“You keep missing the prostate,” Armand comments flatly. He’s practically as still as a statue, moving only from the force of Daniel’s steady, measured thrusts. “With stunning consistency.”
And, Christ, Daniel’s had about as much as he can take of the color commentary. Before he can think better of it, he grunts a harsh, “Shut up.”
“Would you rather I lie to you, Daniel?” Armand asks sweetly, looking back at him over his shoulder. “I can do that if you’d like.”
Daniel isn’t stupid enough not to realize that’s a trap.
“So there is a floor, then.” His voice is still perfectly even as he plucks the thought from Daniel’s mind. “I was beginning to grow concerned.”

Summary
Here Armand is beneath him, small and thin and malleable, pretty as sunlight as he looks up at Daniel in the dark.
“Hello?” Armand says, amused, and Daniel should not laugh, should not dare to when his hand is wrapped around Armand’s throat. It escapes him anyway, a breathy sort of chuckle, and Armand smiles at the sound of it.

Summary
“The vampire Armand,” Daniel said slowly, the headline writing itself in his mind, “in love with a mortal. Now that’s a story I’m interested in.”
The gaze that met his was no longer wounded, but predatory-cold. “You’re a vulture, aren’t you?” Armand said, the words soft as a blade being drawn from silk. “Picking at every scrap of exposed flesh.”
Daniel held the gaze, refusing to flinch. He’d been called worse. “It’s the job. You started talking out of your own free will. You don’t get to be offended when I look for the cracks in the narrative.”
~~~
After a brutal interview session leaves Daniel feeling flayed open, his most painful memory weaponized against him the moment he got a little too smart-mouthed, he has a bizarre conversation with the Vampire Armand about love, loss and nailclippers. His life couldn’t possibly get any weirder.Series

Summary
Armand was aware that he often lost time.
It was better now than it had once been.
On the slave ship, in the brothel, when he was in Marius’ care.
He had never questioned why it happened or what caused it. He knew enough of the modern era to know that an answer was likely out there somewhere, but what good would such a thing do him?
Waking up in an unfamiliar bed in an apartment that seemed only vaguely familiar was all the more disconcerting for how long it had been since it had happened to Armand.
He tried to orient himself. He needed to put just enough of the pieces together to know enough to fake his way through his next few interactions and then it would be as if it never happened.

Summary
“We have the capacity for infinite life, and our hearts may well have the capacity for infinite love. Our hearts belong to more than one person.”
Daniel nodded slowly. A thousand lifetimes, a million, perhaps more – he had the suspicion he would always want to come back to Armand in the end, but he didn’t want to cause problems here either. They were happy. They deserved to be fucking happy.
“And perhaps, when it comes to the one who makes us, it’s a love we will never move past,” Louis admitted. “No matter how much time has passed, nor how truly infuriating they are.”
“Tell me about it,” Daniel agreed quietly.
“I did tell you about it, Daniel.” Louis said. “You wrote a book about it. They made a movie about it, and this is why Lestat likes to sing Sympathy for the Devil on the karaoke.”
A reunion in (hopefully) six parts: Armand and Daniel finding their way back together during and after Prince Lestat.

where we'd end up at the end of it by theyaremycrocs

Summary
Armand knew the technical ins and outs of making another vampire. He didn’t need to experience it to know what it would be like.
…Was what he thought twelve hours ago. And now he was laying in the fetal position atop the perfectly-made sheets of his and Louis’ bed, and Daniel Molloy was sleeping in the guest room in Armand’s ill-fitting sleepclothes because the shirt he’d been wearing during the interview was covered in both his and Armand’s blood.
Daniel was a vampire. Daniel had been finally turned, after all those years of begging and then all those years of completely forgetting. Daniel was a vampire and that was fine. It was probably going to happen at some point, anyway.
But Daniel was also his fledgling. And that part was not fine.

Summary
The strangest thing about being turned, after years and years of anticipating what it would be like, wasn’t anything Daniel expected. It wasn’t the feeling of being drained fully, far past the point where Armand would usually stop in Daniel’s youth; it wasn’t the taste of his blood, wasn’t the white-hot pain of his insides or the terrible urges his body had to expel the little life it had left.
No. The strangest thing was that Armand had rubbed his back through it all.

Summary
“You’re shitting me!” Daniel looks positively gleeful.
“I am not.”
“This is awesome. Fucking Florida.”
“Mm. We should go there in the summer. Revisit our island,” Armand suggests romantically.
“Yeah, sounds great, babe. Milan, 1641—”
“I think I’ve just isolated the root cause of your two divorces.”
“Ha-ha, nice try, asshole, we both know it was you. So anyway, Milan.”
“Milan,” Armand sighs his surrender, though does not stop the light smile from curling up in the corners of his lips.
Or: freshly retired from journalism (and life), Daniel needs enrichment; Armand lovingly puts up with the results.

Question: Can an Immortal Meet Mortality? by hummingbeeoOo

Summary
Armand picks up the bag and upends it over the bed; he picks out the antibiotics and deposits the eight boxes in Daniel’s lap.
“What the fuck…”
“These are all different — which ones seem best suited to your predicament?”
“Predica— oh my god, man, you can’t be for real!”
Armand frowns. “Daniel, please. This is serious.”
“I mean… it’s really not.”
“Blood poisoning is, in fact, extremely serious, beloved. Now please, tell me, which of these should you take?”
“Uh, these are all pretty strong, I don’t need any of these.”
“Yes, you do.”
“It’s not healthy to take antibiotics for no reason!”
Looks like Armand will have to crush the pills into his food.
Or: Armand, the plagues and the wonders of medicine. And Daniel. So much Daniel.

“But you admit it! You did tempt me!”
“I offered you warm food during a storm,” Crowley argues. “If you call that temptation, I’d hate to see you talk to an innkeeper.” Aziraphale scowls some more. Crowley shrugs. “Besides, no harm done. You seem to be enjoying yourself.”
He has Aziraphale there. “Still,” he says, spreading his hands wide. “It has to be said—” He glances up to the sky. “—for anyone listening, that I am not at fault for my appetite.”
“Never said you were,” Crowley says. “Just said you liked the oysters.”

“Why am I an assistant bookseller?” Aziraphale peers over the desk where Crowley has been furiously scribbling. Crowley blinks, his fingers smudged with blue ink.
“Maybe Anthony finds your lack of authority charming.”
