    Summary

    Daniel can tell right away that something is deeply, unsettlingly wrong. And that’s when he realizes that Armand hasn’t moved his legs once in Daniel’s sight, which has been trained on him nearly the entire time. How long had it taken Louis to recover from his spinal injury?

    “He had a lot more going on,” Armand wheezes. “But, to answer your question without consulting your abysmal recordings? Months.”

    “Uh, they’re not so easily consulted at the moment,” Daniel says, trying to maintain his balance. It’s going to be a fucking miracle if he can get himself back on his feet, let alone haul a temporarily paralyzed Armand along with him. “I’m gonna let the head thing slide for the time being.”

    “The head thing?”

    “You. In mine.”

    “How generous.”

    “The way I see it,” Daniel says, “I’m your only ticket out of here if you’re in as bad a shape as I think you are. Tell me I’m wrong.”

    Summary

    "I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."

    "This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"

    "Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."

    "Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

    Summary

    ISO: Carer to look after my father for 8 weeks this summer.
    Dad is 71, early stage Parkinson’s disease, broke his hip 6 weeks ago. No signs of cognitive decline; mostly needs help with household tasks (cooking, light cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping), getting dressed, showering, changing cat litter/general cat care, getting to and from appointments.
    Please know what you are getting into; Dad is physically more or less in good health but awful at accepting his limitations, unnecessarily mean, generally uncooperative, and largely nocturnal. Imagine yourself caring for a feral raccoon that is convinced it’s going to write another book, then subtract everything that is cute about raccoons.
    $20/hour, roughly 4 hours a day. Must be able to pass a background check and lift 50 lbs. Patience of a saint not required but preferred.

    Summary

    “We should do this again. The three of us,” Louis says, putting his hand on the back of Daniel’s chair. “Our local can catch us up, fill in the post-CBGB decades.”

    “I'd like that.” Armand smiles with closed lips and says, “I'll be in touch, Louis. Daniel.”

    They watch Armand walk out the door, papers in hand. “Hey,” Daniel says, once he's gone. “What?”

    “What?” Louis asks back.

    “You were throwing him into walls, recently,” Daniel says. “That's the last update I got on the whole situation.”

    “Wall,” Louis says, “singular.”

    Summary

    “Jon? I will totally buy you one. We can totally buy one of these.”

    “No, I– Wait, it’s not– I, I don’t think– it’s not what you think. It’s not going to be the way you think.”

    “That’s okay.”

    “Tim–” Jon groaned. “It’s– I’m not sure it’s a– a sex thing? I’m just– curious–”

    “Doesn’t have to be a sex thing,” Tim said patiently.
