    Summary

    SPOILERS TVL EPISODE 7. I wrote this to heal me: Louis yells at Gabriella, eviscerates her with his words (his special skill). Louis tells Lestat about his day with Armand. Louis comforted after being tortured.

    Kisses the red bumps of the wolf-scars, mouthing along the symbols of old pain. Licks when he gets to the end of one, then starts at another.

    Lestat’s head is drooping back, breathing open-mouthed at the ceiling. He’s murmuring Louis’ name over and over, lost in the vowels. Intoning like a prayer, reminding Louis of churches. Louis finishes, lips not yet numb: but tingling from the puckered skin, from taking his time, from putting love into it. He whispers, “I hate that you got hurt.”

    Lestat crying again, lord Jesus. It’s funny, it’s beautiful how this man cries. In his baritone, he just repeats it back, “I hate that you got hurt.”

    SPOILERS EPISODE 7 fix-it, hurt with so much comfort

    Summary

    “Louis,” Lestat said, the edges of his voice only cracking a little. Offering up the most casual and unaffected smile he could manage. “To what do I owe the pleasure this evening?”

    Louis’ eyes flicked from Lestat’s face slowly downward, lingering on his bare torso in a way that made Lestat feel like he was being eaten alive. “In town on business,” he said when his eyes landed squarely on Lestat’s face again. A little curl in one corner of his mouth, his eyes an otherworldly green Lestat ached to dive into. “Decided I was in the mood for a show. You gonna invite me in?”

    Summary

    "You," Lestat says, and he's wobbly on his feet, pointing the cigarette like a finger toward Louis while looking anywhere other than him, too afraid of what meeting Louis' eyes would do to him. "Yes. You were right. I know. I know that is how you – I am sorry."

    "Hang on," Louis says. "What?"

    Louis comes to Lestat's concert. Lestat handles this about as well as you might expect.

    Summary

    I said, “They’ve got a coffee table.”
    Rust looked over at their coffee table, and then at me. “Yeah?”
    “You don’t even have a microwave.”
    Rust looked around again, and his shoulders hunched up a bit. “A bird doesn’t build a nest for itself, Marty.”

    The diary of Martin Eric Hart as he solves a case, reevaluates his future, and spends a lot of time ruminating on furniture.
