Summary
Daniel is back to being a struggling journalist after recovering from another drug relapse in his sunset years. He works as a massage therapist to pay the bills between writing gigs. He hopes to impress a new client and secure significant extra income, but gets more than he bargained for when his assumed client directs him to massage his uptight, stressed, and handsome boyfriend Armand instead.
They quickly develop an inappropriate relationship and mutual obsession that goes far beyond the massage table and threatens the familiar, but unsatisfying status quos of both their lives: a stifling relationship as a “kept” boyfriend for Armand and a dead-end career that might not be so dead-end for Daniel.

Daniel Molloy’s Incredible Showstopping World-Famous Model Train Extravaganza for Children and Easily-Awed Vampires (Please Knock) by Ariaste
Fandoms: Vampire Chronicles Series - Anne Rice

Summary
In which Daniel Molloy pulls himself together (then has another nervous breakdown, then pulls himself together again), Armand doesn't know what a 3D printer is, Benji has a Plan (of which Step H is roughly shaped like the movie The Parent Trap), and nobody here can keep their noses out of each other's business.
(Or: In which the author is on a holy crusade to right the wrongs Anne committed in Blood Communion, such as not mentioning Daniel even once.)
***
“People call in sometimes, and they say, ‘Whatever happened to the Vampire Daniel, anyway?’ What am I supposed to say, you know? ‘Oh, Daniel Molloy? Yeah, he lives in my house, he’s got a room up in the attic with some mad science experiments or something, we’re blood relatives, but I don’t know what’s going on with him; we don’t talk.’ Come on. That’s not responsible journalism. The people want to know!”

Summary
Armand walks in still covered in plaster, still wide eyed and looking shaken. He moves slowly, like he’s the one who should be careful towards the intruder in his house.
“You are still here.”
Daniel hums. “Sure am.”

Summary
"Daniel loves being a vampire. More than I ever have, to be sure. And, almost immediately after his transformation was complete, I think Daniel began to love me. And so I ran. Because I don’t know what to do with that. Because (...honesty), I don’t trust in its realness. Its constancy. In my own worthiness. In my ability to truly love anyone, or anything, in a way that will not leave ashes in that love’s wake. (Though I have spent all 515 years of my life trying.) I ran and left him to fend for himself and started to build a giant hotel-mall-casino in the Florida Keys. As one does. Except Daniel Molloy will not let me run."
Or "Armand and Daniel spend a weekend in New York together post Daniel's turning. The budding romance brings things up for Armand - things he's kept at bay for hundreds of years."
This can be read standalone, but reading part one in the series will help you understand my headcanon for how Daniel was turned.

Summary
Daniel is sprawled out across the bed, loose-limbed and lazy, somehow filling all the open space it has to offer and leaving Armand to nestle into the gaps. His cheeks are flushed, blood pooling like it knows what comes next. Maybe it does. Armand was reading about classical conditioning the other day. About dogs who become accustomed to getting food when their handler rings a bell.
Perhaps Daniel is the dog, Armand’s teeth sharp bells reverberating in his veins. Or perhaps Armand is the dog, Daniel’s blood a song rattling in his ears. He has been a dog before. He runs his tongue along the bow of Daniel’s collarbone, gathers the salt-sweat there and imagines what it tastes like because Daniel does.
Armand remembers he loved Daniel, once, and that Daniel loved him. Or a version of them did, at least. It isn't his intention to go back to that, but it's not not his intention, either. Such is the prerogative of an immortal: to hold two contradicting desires simultaneously. If nothing else, it passes the time while he waits for this miserable interview to end.
