    Summary

    Angel's been having some problems controlling his impulses. Good thing Spike is here to make it all worse.

    Angel tipped his head back, baring his throat for Spike's lips. He was breathing faster than he meant to, couldn't take in enough of the scent of Spike's skin, of his hair. His hands swept over the firm, cool body. There were too many places to touch, too much to hold all at once. He could feel his blood moving on the inside, as if something in him were coming alive. The blood tingled under his skin as Spike sucked hard kisses into his neck. “You,” Angel sighed, “are ruining my whole plan.”

    “You sent me two bloody inches away,” Spike breathed into his neck between kisses. “If that's your best plan, we're fucked, Angel.”

    Summary

    Daniel Molloy: Professionally Sassing Vampires Since 1973.

    ***

    “And you say that Armand was…” Daniel checked his notepad. “Telling you all this via the medium of song and choreographed dance. And, I quote, ‘in black and white, a la Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.’”

    “Well,” said Lestat with an expansive gesture. “Figuratively.”

    Daniel gripped his patience with both hands, but that didn’t seem to help much.

    Summary

    “I’ve been thinking of staying here,” Armand says. He turns around to study Daniel, leans a hip against the metal railing of the balcony, cigarette dangling between his fingers. “In Miami.”
    Daniel laughs and snatches the cigarette from Armand’s grasp, taking a long drag so he can exhale smoke through his nostrils. Armand hates it when he does that, and always says Daniel will ruin his sense of smell more than he already has, which is why Daniel makes a point of doing it again anyway. “Screw off, man. You only come here because I like it.”
    “I was thinking of purchasing an island."
    Miami, 1975: Armand wants to build something with Daniel, a shrine to their relationship, a place for them both. It takes the shape of the Night Island.

    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.
