    Summary

    “You, Daniel Molloy, stand accused of a heinous crime: the murder of the vampire Marius de Romanus—“

    “It was murder, sure, but it was hardly a crime.” Daniel paused, an easy smile stretching across his remarkably unbothered face given the window just barely shuttered above him, daylight peeking around the edges. “I didn’t do it,” he added, “Not gonna lie, it’s actually pretty flattering that you think a three-year-old like me managed to kill someone who’d been around for two millennia.”

    Summary

    "Nice sheets," the man says as Randy pulls them out, yellow and floral.

    "They're not mine."

    "What?" the man asks. "You steal em?"

    "No," Randy says, realising too late that he spoke too fast, that it had been a joke. "They're from my house, I mean, they're my mom's."

    Randy works at Burgers, Benson doesn't. Randy needs help with his laundry. Benson needs help with his crossword. How this leads to murder, Randy isn't sure.

But when Ruben appears in a teenage Niall's life once more and seems to take an interest in him, Niall needs to figure out if all attention is good attention or if sometimes loneliness is the best option.

    Summary

    When Ruben moves into their house, Niall’s childhood nightmares come rushing back. However, upon discovering Ruben's dark past and the abuse he suffered at the hands of his own father, Niall’s mind develops a dangerous coping mechanism: justification.

    Now, Niall begins to see the assaults as the cry for help from a traumatized mind. Determined to save Ruben from his own demons, Niall accepts the suffering as a necessary sacrifice.

     

    Or:

    Niall is being abused by Ruben, but he thinks it’s just a reaction to what Ruben went through as a child. So it’s not his fault, it’s not Ruben’s fault.
