    Summary

    The tablet in the catalog wasn’t Armand’s. (He’d been in possession of the latest iPad model, something he was very excited to share when Daniel asked one quiet afternoon in the penthouse.) But it did give Daniel an idea. If Armand wasn’t going to do something kind for himself, Daniel would.

    ***

    Something was wrong with Daniel. He’d been acting strange the past few nights, jumping when Armand entered the room, refusing to sit still, sequestering himself. It was so painfully obvious, it took genuine effort for Armand to ignore it. And he desperately wanted to ignore it. But with each passing evening, the reason for Daniel’s skittish behavior became more evident. He was getting rid of Armand.


    OR: Armand starts acting weird when Daniel brings him back to New York after a less-than-ideal reunion. Daniel tries to do something nice. Armand misinterprets and thinks Daniel is going to throw him out.

    Summary

    Armand needed something to ground him so he didn't float away. He needed Lestat with his laissez-faire attitude. Lestat, his oldest lover and friend, he understood Armand on certain levels that the other two could not. He had seen him at one of the lowest points of his life and therefore understood things that could not be explained. He knew the way Armand's heart was shaped, horribly mangled as it was.

    (Armand has a meltdown and seeks out Lestat for help)

    Summary

    [UPDATED AND COMPLETE!]

    “There were times in my life when I wondered whether I’d been here at all. Whether it was something I made up— something Marius made up. He took me back, once, as a customer. I didn’t recognize anyone.”
    Daniel leans back against the cushions, runs a hand over the stubble along his jaw. “It happened, Armand. It fucking happened.”
    “Yes.”
    “And you don’t think it stuck around? You don’t think it lingered?”

    [Post-interview, Armand and Daniel go through the files assembled by the Talamasca on Armand's past.]

    Summary

    "Yeah, and that's the problem," Louis begins. "You don't take it seriously. What did you expect me to do, laugh at your abuse?"

    His stomach drops. God, how he hates that word. That word, and the i word, and the r word that he won't even touch. They follow him everywhere, they linger in his peripheral, they ring in his head like a cymbal. They get caught behind his tongue when he tries whispering them to himself in the mirror alone.

    After Gabriella leaves, Louis helps Lestat come to terms with what happened to him.
