She doesnât mind this mutual clinginess, all too happy to reciprocate, even if her feet donât leave the ground, this time; there is no laughter either, only the tight hold of his arms around her, her fingers clenching the fabric of his jacket, revelling in that tangible proof that he is here."

Pairing: Lestat de Lioncourt/Louis de Pointe du Lac, Daniel Molloy/Arman (Background), Daniel Molloy & Louis de Pointe du Lac
Tags: Rockstar Lestat, Mutual Pining, Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, Hurt/Comfort, Flashbacks, Drug Use, Biting, Blood Drinking, Drama, Romance, Canon-Typical Violence, Anal Sex, Jealousy, Possessive Behavior, Possessive Sex, Bottom Louis de Pointe du Lac, Top Lestat de Lioncourt, Sharing a Bed, Sharing a Room, Friends to Lovers, Post-Episode: s02e08 And That's The End of It. There's Nothing Else (Interview with the Vampire TV) Summary:
After the hurricane, Louis and Lestat's relationship became strained. With Lestat's newfound fame as a rockstar, he became an unavoidable presence in Louis' life. It might have been easier to ignore him if every song Lestat wrote wasnât about Louis, and if Daniel hadnât kept calling to complain about the interview for the sequel named after the band--The Vampire Lestat. When Daniel asked Louis to come and get Lestat to talk, Louis refusedâuntil Lestat started calling him himself.
"We can be just friends," Lestat said.
Louis promised himself heâd keep Lestat at armâs length. It would be easier if he werenât in love with him.
-----snippet-----
It was longing that persuaded me to offer Lestat my hand, that had me bring Lestat to one of the apartments I owned in the Quarter as an investment. Our history was reason enoughâI couldnât leave him to the wreckage, though I knew he could save himself from the hurricane. I suspect my arrival had been no surprise to him. For the first time in decades, the cord that attached us wavered. As my feet stepped on Rue Royale, I felt him. He heard my call as I approached his squalid residence and prepared himself accordingly. It was our reunion, and he wouldnât risk an unsavory outcome.Â
We were, for the first time in an age, alone, and though yearning flowed from him, Lestat was respectful. In the beginning, he didnât question or test my boundaries, and he treated my apartment as a temporary home, thanking me for my generosity. Once he was settled, I planned to return to my hotel room.Â
Then we faced each other, Lestat looking down to his feet and then up to me, smiling coyly, his plush pink lips as deceptive as theyâd always been. âI suppose youâll be going,â he said.
âThe sunâs coming up soon.â
Lestat nodded to himself. âWill I see you again?â
âWhen the stormâs over, Iâll swing by. Take care of yourself, alright? I donât want to come back in a week and find your skeleton in a corner.âÂ
I made the steps to the door, my feet committed to the exit. Outside, the wind was howling and rain came down on the Quarter more violently than it had in storms a century ago. I hesitated as I neared the door, the sound of Lestatâs heart pounding in his chest eroding my determination. Lestat stood still, transfixed by our parting, and I felt his gaze linger on my back.
âStay,â he whispered.Â
âLestat.â My hand hovered above the doorknob. âIâm not sure thatâs a good idea.â
He laughed then, that uncontrollable, hysterical laughter that had haunted my memoryâin those most passionate moments, whenever I was most vulnerable to him, that same laugh escaped his belly. I was enthralled by its untimely entrance every time. And, goodness, I started laughing too, laughing with Lestat, laughing at how incredibly miserable we had been, and laughing at myself for how susceptible I was to him after decades of trying to purge myself of the impulse to run to him.
âIâll leave tomorrow,â I relinquished.

Love watching the old Addams Family show from the 60's because you can see very clearly the episodes and even the specific scenes that served as inspiration for Wednesday.
Cool thing is: they are mostly related to Morticia.
Here we have Morticia holding a séance in Halloween Addams Style (S02E07):
She's holding a séance because Wednesday want to see a real witch for Halloween and she doesn't want her daughter to be disappointed! So they try to contact Aunt Singe. Naturally.
Wednesday learned the basics of her mother's craft, as we all know:
Cool!
And! here we have Morticia writing! in Morticia, the Writer (S02E08):
She writes in the caves under the manor! How cool is that?
Her set-up was clearly the inspiration for Wednesday's own set-up at Nevermore:
Could this be the same typewriter? Family heirloom?
As you can see, both images depict Morticia doing things that we now associate with Wednesday.
And the best thing is: Morticia is doing both of them for Wednesday's sake!
Morticia is holding a séance only because Wednesday wants to meet a real witch.
Morticia is writing a children's book only because Wednesday hates the ones they force them to read in school, where the knights kill dragons and goblins and other magnificent and perfectly nice fellows.
So as you can see, Morticia and Wednesday have lots of things in common, and many things we now associate with Wednesday (fencing, string instruments, writing, seances, along with restrain, focus, pragmatism) were Morticia's traits and hobbies first.
And Morticia and Wednesday love each other very much! That's like Addams Family 101. Infinite love for each other. Perfectly healthy family with caring parents, no matter how macabre they look. It's the striking contrast that makes it great!
So why does society (Netflix) insists on pitting two bad bitches against each other? Don't know!
But anyway is cool they took inspiration from the original show!
Bonus: A glimpse of our glorious (wenclair) future:

HotD S02E08
I do not want to do this but I also want to be fucking done with this season so I'm powering through.
TL;DR: What the fuck even was that finale? Also, a relevant question - WHERE is the finale? 'Cuz, like, nothing happened except for more setup and the total assassination of the source material. This is gonna be full of negativity.
gif by oscarwildebutwilder
(Couldn't resist when I saw Freddy Fox.)
Tyland Lannister was the only good part of this episode. He was having such a bad time but he did not give up and not only did he secure allies for the war, but he also got to sleep with a whole harem. Good for him!
The way that they have Larys smuggle Aegon out of King's Landing to protect him from his own brother instead of from Rhaenyra... Though, he also inadvertently ends up protecting him from Rhaenyra but that whole thing is purely because of Alicent. I just... RIP any sort of integrity this show fucking had. But I'm gonna talk about that later. At least that provides us with an interesting parallel between Alicent and Larys. She was horrified when he killed his family but now she's the one sacrificing her son and Larys ended up saving him? Again, for his own benefit but that doesn't change the fact that he has taken on the burden that caring for Aegon will be for the next however many months while Alicent just... did that (*whispers* what the fuck). What we need now is for Alicent to get Helaena's development from the book. She knowingly chose to give up Aegon to death but then he is the last of her children that evades death. Imagine her seeing him come back to King's Landing and being unable to look him in the eye, knowing she chose to let him die but at the same time wanting to hug him because he is all she has left... because of Larys. Insane!
I can see how much everyone cares for Rhaena since she disappeared from the convoy and no one even fucking noticed apparently! Or if they did, they just didn't give a shit. They really are putting her through the wringer for that dragon... and they didn't even give it to her. I cannot believe that they just decided to fucking leave it there. At least let her claim it to close the season. That way the Blacks would gain even more power even if no one knew it yet. It would have been some kind of closure if only on 1 out of 10 fronts. But no!
Jace and the horrible, terrible, no good, really bad days. His face when Rhaenyra asked Addam to go with her AND left him to deal with the "mongrels". Ooh, sorry for that rough patch, buddy, hang in there! (Not Baela only appearing when she has to tell him how awesome and totally Targaryen and fit for the throne he is after her last appearance was her telling her grandfather how awesome and totally fit for the throne of Driftmark Joffrey would be. Hmm... almost like there's a fucking pattern!) I think it would have been more interesting if Jace had suggested that they get bastards to ride the dragons. That would have required them to write him an arc during this season where he confronts his feelings on it first but think about it! He knows he's a bastard and that's enough to let him have a dragon. So it should be enough for other Targaryen bastards. Rhaenyra would be the one to protest based on her ideas of the dragons being the Targaryens' key to ruling but she's already bending the rules for her own sons. What if she bends them further to win this war? And that way Jace would be the one to slowly but surely be dismantling the pillars upon which the Targaryen supremacy is built like he's already done with his very existence. Rhaenyra would have still started this but it would be Jace realizing that he's probably going to face another war for his own succession anyway and he decides to pull out all the stops and prove himself in this war plus simultaneously watch out for those who would be future obstacles to him and weed them out right now.
Fucking clown behavior from Corlys once again. I am so glad Alyn just ripped into him like that.
What exactly was Gwayne thinking bringing up Criston and Alicent's affair so publicly and drawing everyone's attention? There's no way none of the other soldiers around them didn't hear what they were discussing. Great way to protect your sister's virtue, buddy! The way Criston also went through an existential crisis this season - just like Alicent - and has come out of it just as jaded, having lost his faith and his sense of purpose. The writers really fucking copy-pasted that arc, huh? On both characters obsessed with Rhaenyra. As if they're trying to imply that without Rhaenyra the world will end. Oh, wait! Did I say imply? They are outright stating it! But yeah, I want to be invested in the Alicole angst of him sniffing her handkerchief but I can't, knowing that Alicent was on her way to betray him and everyone else on her side. (*whispers* what the fuck)
Aemond is coming up so desperate and this could be interesting if they explore how he was so sure he could do it himself but now he has to face the fact that he's not a one-man(-and-dragon) army and he needs help. Which would have been easier to get if he hadn't torched his brother. He might have even persuaded Helaena to join him then, or at least Aegon could have if they had fucking let him and Helaena seek comfort in each other over their son's death. Aegon, due to their extenuating circumstances, could have chosen to stoke her feelings of anger and grief over Jaehaerys contrarily to how he tried to avoid that in 2x02 when he didn't say anything to her on the stairs because all he had was rage and she wasn't looking for that. The world we could have been living in! But no! We have this instead where Aemond is now turning on all of his family members and threatening their lives while Daemon has overcome his ideas to overthrow Rhaenyra and is now a loyal little soldier. At least can they give us some Aemond and Jacaerys parallels? Both feel that that is something making them not enough rn and if Aemond is to have a relationship with Alys, it would be interesting to see him struggle the same as Jace, who is also a bastard like her.
Apparently, if you are tripping balls for long enough, you will completely change your entire personality and start believing in magic and fate and the divine right of kings - oops, sorry, queens - even though you were the one character that openly admitted that it wasn't some magic-prophecy bullshit that got your house the throne but your flying nuclear lizards. Good to know! At least the writers had the decency to give us two different visions that clearly intersect somewhere but also wildly diverge. We didn't get to see Helaena's vision but she was just as certain in Aegon sitting the throne as Daemon was in Rhaenyra sitting it. Though, clearly Helaena sees further since his vision ended at that point but Helaena was also there and has seen beyond it. At least that way they keep the intrigue because if we know for certain one side is ordained by the gods to save the realm, then what's the point of watching the show further? That is to say, they could have fucked this up even more but they managed to not destroy their basic premise.
Love how they kept Helaena's dreamer side so vague until now and suddenly bam! She has a very clear map of when and how Aemond will die. She might not know the exact day but that was pretty specific, especially compared to her other visions. I am at least relieved that it's mostly because of the visions that she doesn't want to join Aemond, since she knows what will happen. It still feels like "women don't like war because they're so gentle" but a little less annoying nonetheless. (Not Rhaenyra saying that Helaena doesn't like riding Dreamfyre. And that on the heels of Aegon saying that Sunfyre is dead which is a confirmation because he would be able to feel it. My inner monologue rn: kill kill die kill.)
Ser Alfred when Daemon declared for Rhaenyra:
I was starting to think that he had just decided to cut his losses and fuck off to another kingdom. Rhaenyra clearly sent him away to get rid of him and showing up at Harrenhal to demand from the Daemon that left Dragonstone to check with his wife would have gotten him killed. It would have made sense for him to bail. Why did it take him so long to arrive? I know he wasn't on a dragon but this seems like some awfully convenient timing.
Rhaenyra still wringing her hands after she had 30-40 people die a horrifying, excruciating death AND broke the rules so bad that she pissed off all her dragon tamers is ABSOLUTELY. FUCKING. RIDICULOUS. Crack? Is it crack you smoke? Mysaria being there to urge her further into war while telling her how right and just she is is starting to feel a whole lot like they're setting up Mysaria to be the devil on her shoulder while Alicent, who wants peace, is the angel on the other shoulder. It's completely devoid of logic and stupid. I wish they would just cut that shit out.
This episode completely turned me off from Rhaenicent. I just cannot support this bullshit. I don't care how many parallels they've woven in between Alicent and Rhaenyra and how they were always each other's answer because they had what the other wanted and balanced each other out. This behavior is just completely unacceptable from a storytelling perspective, from a character perspective, from any kind of perspective, especially from Alicent.
What the fuck are they implying that Alicent is now fReE and she has shed the chains that kept her suffering and self-sacrificing?! She just agreed to let her son get killed so that she could save the realm from a war. That sounds exactly like self-sacrificing! Except that it's worse because she's not just sacrificing herself, but her child! (Also, fucking watch the writers imply that being disabled means you're completely disposable because you'd be better off dead anyway!) And that's coming after she spent 15-20 years agonizing over the fact that Rhaenyra will kill her sons just because they're a challenge to her claim to the throne! That was the whole reason why she put Aegon on the throne in the first place! How did it even occur to her to go to Rhaenyra at all when now more than ever there is no way to end this war without one of the claimants to the throne dying?????
Season 1 Alicent: *stands in front of a dragon for Aegon*
Season 2 Alicent: *agrees to let Rhaenyra execute Aegon*
Like??????????? WHAT. THE. FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate, haTE, HATE how they are still trying to present Rhaenyra's bid for Aegon's head as just or at least deserved because Lucerys got killed. Aren't you fucking forgetting that her husband ordered the decapitation of Aegon's six-year-old child????????? There was a son taken! Rhaenyra was allegedly horrified but now she is still thirsty for blood and wants Aegon's head. And when she kills him, she'll want Aemond's head - for Lucerys and because of all the innocent people he's killed, of course, not because he's also a threat to her claim. And when he's dead, she'll want Daeron's head if he dares to join his family and try to fight her. The attempts to present her as the hero are so outrAGEOUS... Why am I even watching this show? I should stop watching this show!
Otto being imprisoned was both "I fucking knew it!" and "Thank god he's alive at least!" I knew to be worried when Aemond wanted him back and Alicent said he hadn't responded to her letters.

WIP TAG GAME đż
rules: make a new post with the names of all the files in your wip folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! and then tag as many people as you have wips
Thanks for the tag loves! @poetry-my-lord @rapha-reads
Holy shit, I have so many WIPs I should actually be banned (or forced on a chair to sit tf down and write). I've got a whole file called magic reveal every episode â most of which are untitled. and i have another folder of wips like the julius caesar fic (full AUs) but these are later to be revealed.
For now, here are some of the magic reveals:
S01E01 - the dragon's call
arthur sees merlin saving him with magic in the banquet.
S01E03 - the mark of nimueh
arthur uses his brain cells and actually figures out that when merlin nearly broke the fucking door to the throne room screaming i have magic!!!, he actually meant it.
S02E08 - the sins of the father
merlin reveals the truth of ygraine's story after the vision of morgause, and arthur gets to, for once, have actual agency in the decisions he make.
S02E09 - the lady of the lake
merlin tells arthur that he fucking killed the girl he loved.
S02E12 - the fires of idrisholas
arthur actually sees merlin's golden eyes that were right. in front. of. his. eyes.
S03E02 - the tears of uther pendragon
merlin collapses in front of arthur after the serket sting.
S04E03 - the wicked day (TYISMSO)
merlin reveals his magic to arthur right before his coronation.
S04E06 - a servant of two masters
THEY FUCKING TELL ARTHUR THAT MERLIN WAS ENCHANTED AND HE TRIES TO HELP MERLIN AS HE WOULD HAVE
S04E10 - the herald of a new age
merlin has faith from arthur's words to the spirit that possessed elyan and tells him the second day
S05E03 - the death song of uther pendragon (MHIRY)
uther succeeds in saying merlin has magic!, momentarily stunning arthur, which was all it took for uther to stab merlin in his heart. arthur deals with merlin bleeding in his arms and the magic reveal at the same time.
S05E05 - the disir
arthur actually notices that merlin was fucking breaking down in front of him while saying that there can be no magic in camelot. fucking hell
S05E12 - diamond of the fucking day
BAMF merlin reaction after arthur tells him I always thought you were the bravest man I ever met.. guess I was wrong.
S05E13 - diamond of the fucking day
fucking hell, do I need to explain what I want to do with this one? so many fix-its at this point i can't even
I could be persuaded on which to finish after MBARBYC đ

Mulders POV He had never intended to tell her that, to tell her the only time he was able to sleep in the last weeks had been when he was so exhausted he could barely drive, but always found himself unlocking her door and collapsing on her couch just to smell the slowly decaying scent of her in the air, in that sweater; and dreaming about her coming through the door to him.

He picks her up from the hospital a week after she wakes up. Sheâd called him at work the day before to inform him she was getting out and to ask for his help getting to her place. Heâd come every evening after her family had left to visit her, a mix of not wanting her to be alone for a second, and wanting to be alone with her. Mostly he brought all the food cravings she requested and they ate and shouted answers at Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune and then watched reruns of whatever was on. He was really good at Jeopardy and she was really good at wheel of fortune. Yesterday, to celebrate her impending release, heâd brought her, her favorite greasy mushroom, fried egg, cheeseburger, from the local diner near work. When he pulled out a package of bright purple Snoballs, that had almost been an afterthought from the checkout counter, sheâd insisted they eat them first because âLife is short!â. They split the package, squishing them together in a cheers before the first bite.
Her face lit up when he knocked on the open door. A mix of relief and excitement peaking out from behind Missyâs figure. âHi Foxâ she said. âHow are you Melissaâ he nodded at her. âReady to get busted out of here?â He asked Scully, as he walked to the opposite side of her bed. âI told her I could do it but she insisted on you.â Missy looked at him with a slightly smug smile on her face. He pushed his lips together in answer and looked down at Scully looking up at him. âAlright well Iâll stop by tomorrow to make sure youâre settled okay sis?â She bent down to hug Scully goodbye. âOkay, thanks Missyâ came Scullyâs muffled voice from her shoulder. She smiled at Mulder before sweeping out of the room in a mess of layers of lace and boho skirts. âYou kids have funâ she said at the door with a smirk. Scully rolled her eyes, and looked at Mulder apologetically.Â
âSheâs just happy Im back, full of the big sister energy she missed out on for a month and half.â A nurse came in with a wheelchair and started the checkout procedures with Scully. As she was being helped into the wheelchair, âjust procedureâ the nurse had assured her, she looked up at Mulder. âThanks for doing this. Missy would've had to drive my car and sheâs a terrible driver.â Mulder chuckled as he picked up her bag. âAlright come on miss Daisy.â âNot you too.â She whined as he chuckled from behind her.
âââ She walked through her apartment like a castaway adrift on her own ship. Sheâd grown more and more quiet the closer he drove her to her apartment. And had stood in front of the building for a solid five minutes before deciding to go in. Mulder standing silently with her, wondering if he shouldâve taken her back to his place.Â
She stopped to inspect everything like it was her first time here. She brushed her hand over the kitchen table as she walked from the living room to the kitchen. Mulder stood silently watching her with fascination. Wondering at how elegant she was despite everything. He cleared his throat. âYour mom cleaned up when you were in the hospital, just dusted and mopped. She didnât want to go home but she needed a break so she came here.â âYou guys stayed with me.â She knew the details of her familyâs support already so he wasn't sure if this was a question. She didnât turn to look at him just kept looking around, at the moment, the pantry. âMissy and your mom did, IâŠâ He swallowed. She looked up at him. âI tried to find who did this to you so I could kill them.â He stated unemotionally. She blinked, swallowed and then her lips drew apart opening in such a familiar way. He was drawn back to long car rides and pit stops and her thinking face when he said something insane but worth a second thought.Â
She said said âOhâ matching his statements emotion as she wandered to the fridge and ducked into it. He came as close as the dining table feeling like she was a tightly wound string about to snap. âShe probably told you already but she brought you some food.â She stood up, still looking in the fridge. âBut I can take you to the store⊠if you need something...â he trailed off, slightly perturbed by how she was being. In the hospital sheâd been cheery, cheerier than heâd ever remembered. This change was worrying, but he didnât quite know if he could or should attempt fix it. She shut the fridge, then turned her back to the kitchen to look out of the window. âI donât feel like I missed anything, but everything around me feels different. Further awayâŠâ she said softly, far away herself. âThe doctor said your memories could come back.â He was leaning against the kitchen entryway now, watching her. She was so lost being back here, he wasnât sure if this was a good idea, maybe she shouldâve gone to her moms. âI hope notâ she said quietly as she turned around leaning against the window sill. She met his eyes for the first time. âDo you⊠did you find out who did this to me?â She asked. They hadnât talked about it yet. Talked about what it was like her being gone. He shook his head looking down, ashamed. âI might have, but your sisterâ he sighed âShe convinced me revenge wasn't going to wake you up, and if you⊠while I was⊠I wouldâve regretted it forever.â She walked to him and brushed a hand on his arm as she wandered away.
âBut we can try now. If you, you know, come backâŠâÂ
She disappeared around the corner.
âOr if you donâtâŠâ
He found her in her bedroom staring at the window above her desk. âIts fixedâ she said. âYeah, I had the FBI cover it.â âThanks.â She picked up the green sweater her mother had taken off the couch and folded. The sweater that felt like he had some ownership over, having spent the majority of his time heâd spent in her apartment asleep on her couch with it in his arms. âDid I leave this out?â âYou left it on the kitchen tableâ when she looked at him confused he realized she had been asking no one, herself. âI slept here sometimes, on the couchâŠâ He had to explain now. âI missed youâ his cheeks burned. He had never intended to tell her that, to tell her the only time he was able to sleep in the last weeks had been when he was so exhausted he could barely drive, but always found himself unlocking her door and collapsing on her couch just to smell the slowly decaying scent of her in the air, in that sweater; and dreaming about her coming through the door to him. âIm sorry Mulder.â He laughed mirthlessly, shaking his head. âYou donât have anything to be sorry about Dana.â He said softly. She looked away from him down at the floor.
âIm going to shower. Will you stay?â She found his eyes. âPlease?â âOf course, whatever you need. Do you want anything? I can order pizza?â âNo. I think I just want to sleep.â âYou have to eat, Iâll heat up the soup your mom left.â She nodded and disappeared into the bathroom.
She came out half an hour later in a robe and silk pyjamas with white piping. He motioned to the table and put a bowl in front of her. âAre you eatingâ she asked as she picked up the spoon. âYeahâ he said sitting down with his own bowl of chunky tomato colored soup âIâm gonna miss your moms cooking.â He said off handedly searching for conversation. She looked at him for explanation as she took a spoonful of her moms version of Maryland crab soup with chicken instead of crab like she liked. âYour mom would bring me food sometimes.â He shrugged, he didnât want to elaborate, if he did heâd probably start crying at the table at the generosity he never deserved. At the kindness her mom had for him when he was the one responsible for losing her daughter. He looked down into his soup and ate and after a minute feeling her eyes boring into him, she continued to eat as well. When they had finished, or as finished as Scully could manage he cleaned up and did the dishes. As he walked back to her wiping his hands on his pants he said âOkay I can come over tomorrow, the same timeâŠâ The panic in her eyes was clear. He faltered, the words dying on his breath. âStay.â She begged quietly âWill you please stay?â âOf courseâ he answered automatically. He hadnât wanted to leave really, afraid she would disappear, all alone here. He put a hand on her shoulder. âHeâs dead Scully.â In answer she said âIâll give you a toothbrushâ she took his hand and he obliged her to the bathroom. They brushed their teeth standing together over the sink. He found her face in the mirror and she smirked at him through her toothbrush foam. He chuckled and said speaking to her reflection âI have to pee.â Just as muffled by his own toothbrush. She laughed and answered a muffled âOkayâ When he opened the door she was waiting for him. âNight Scully.â He said as he made to make his way to the living room. She stopped him with a hand slipped around his forearm. âWill youâŠâ she bit her lip as she looked into her bedroom. There was no discomfort in her asking him to sleep in her bed, just at the thought of being alone. He understood. He wished he could tell her how much he understood. Instead he took her hand and walked with her to her bed
They stood across from each other, the bed between them and he chanced a smile at her. âYou cant sleep in jeans.â He removed them. She removed her bathrobe and slipped under the sheets. He climbed in after her and was careful to keep his body from touching her. She turned off the bedside lamp and lay facing him. âWill you hold me?â Came her whisper, he hardly heard it but knew from the moment sheâd touched his arm, what she was asking for. Because his mind had been screaming for it too. He obliged without question or pause. He turned over and shifted his body to her, feeling her silky pjs on his legs. His mind blank except for this moment right now, after everything. There was no want or confusion. Happiness flooding him at being able to provide her the comfort she provided him in just being alive.Â
The pure contentment of her being here and alive and in his presence. She had been lost. Gone and had returned. It was beyond feeling. It was cataclysmic. It was changing him in the depths of his soul.
They were partners and they were friends and they were entwined in ways they couldnât quite understand but at the moment it didnât matter what the definitions of their relationship were. Tomorrow they would return to normal. That was unspoken and understood. But tonight, they both needed the comfort of each other, they needed to disappear into each others bodies, in the purest way two people could. He enveloped her in his arms and she sighed with a small vocal âHmmâ into his chest, her head fitted under his chin, her arms tucked up against his stomach, hands resting against him. She fit her knee between his legs and he wrapped his around her thigh. âI cant believe youâre here.â he said into her hair. âI feel like Iâm dreaming you.â âIâm happy Iâm not dead too.â He chuckled, then sighed. âGoodnight Danaâ his thumb brushing circles on the spot of baby soft skin behind her ear. âNight Mulderâ she sighed back, as she burrowed her head closer into his neck, reminding him of a cat getting comfortable. They both slept a deep, unmoving sleep, staying entangled as they were when they slipped into unconsciousness. Their bodies demanding rest, after so long being awake, searching. After so long, being awake, unknowing, lost. When they woke in the morning they felt rested for the first time in a long while. They stayed entwined, holding onto each other for almost an hour, holding onto the peace between them, listening to each others breath. Dozing between waking and the twilight of shared sleep. They shared breakfast and a hug and he left her to her sister.

S02E08 Spoilers
Anyway I hated it lol
And this isn't just a "my little guy died" kind of thing. I've thought he was going to die all season; that was not a surprise to me. This is about how tacked on the ending felt.
Izzy spends his dying breaths comforting Ed and telling Ed the crew is his family and loves him. And then Ed immediately leaves the crew to be an innkeeper. Yeah, that was a great and meaningful use of screen time.
If the crew loved Ed and considered him family, I'd really like if they would have showed that instead of just telling us. Because what I saw this season was post-Kraken Ed having one conversation with Fang and that was pretty much it for positive crew interaction. But apparently they love him and they're family, okay.
Also RE: showing and not telling, Ed referring to Izzy as his family. I think I could count the positive interactions between Ed and Izzy across all seasons on Izzy's hoof. They've hardly spoken this season post-Kraken. Where is this coming from? It felt so forced and unearned.
It's frustrating how the scene seems to brush off all of Izzy's development this season, moving away from his toxic relationship with Ed and opening up after surviving a suicide attempt, to spend his last minutes focusing on Ed and saying that he wanted to die.
Anyway forget that, it's wedding time! And now forget that, let's have Ed and Stede run an inn with no prior onscreen discussion! The end!
I got into this fandom because I loved Ed/Stede so much. The potential for cracks in their relationship was there from the start; one of their first conversations together was Ed wanting out of piracy while Stede wanted in. I was really interested to see how this would be resolved, and how they'd move forward together. I don't think the resolution on this front was satisfyingly handled at all. But Ed read a letter and they kissed, so hooray I guess. Why would you ever need to talk anything through and build a solid foundation before living together? It's not like we saw this analog literally go up in flames a few episodes ago.
There was such an odd juxtaposition of spoon-feeding the audience with flashbacks to explain what was going on for obvious things, and then also expecting the audience to do all the legwork for important relationships. What's the relationship between Jim and Oluwande? What made Stede finally decide to leave piracy behind for Ed in S2E8 vs S2E7? Why, according to an interview, is Frenchie apparently captain now instead of Zheng Yi Sao or Oluwande? We're not going to write those conversations, figure it out yourself.
Also, Blackbeard the genius, and Zheng Yi Sao who conquered China's seas, apparently can't come up with a plan better than "Wear uniforms and then walk around with a hostage, whose gun we will not be taking." It just felt so meaningless.
The thing that really gets to me the most is how much I loved S2E1-7. I had some lingering issues, but they didn't bother me because I had faith they'd be resolved (at least, resolved to some extent, given a 3 season arc). And then the last 15 minutes of this episode destroyed that notion. I thought the writing was poor and inconsistent, and it threw everything before it into a completely different light. The things that I was waiting to be built upon were never actually in the blueprints. The cracks in the foundation were covered up with bubblegum. It didn't have good bones.

Hi there!
All I can say is that I have more questions/thoughts than I thought I would have at the end of S02E08 and I really wanted to come to you to help me figure them out. I hope you don't mind.
I really don't think I understand anymore why this second interview is happening. Do you think that Louis, because he keeps happily hallucinating Lestat, and has served a 77 year old life sentence out of spite for Lestat's perceived actions in Paris, has realised that something about his memories isn't right, so he turns to the foolish young reporter, who has surely proven his journalistic acumen in the past 50 years, to be the person to help with that? I know that you said you don't think that the 'Lestat in the Magnus tower' moment is true, and so are you assuming that the whole book explanation still holds true- Lestat came to Paris for blood, denied, starved and manipulated, he sells them out (and we end up with Lestat saving Louis on stage) and Armand heads off with a Louis who is functional enough (thanks to his fiery revenge) to be an okay travel partner? I guess Lestat's many 'breakout" moments during the trial and the swaying etc. heavily suggest that he wasn't himself and was under some influence. So, if this is true, how the hell hasn't Armand nipped the idea of a new interview in the bud with this much to lose? I don't care how much Arun likes to please or how amazing he thinks he is against a mediocre star, if it were me, I wouldn't let anyone, especially an investigative journalist and someone who shares his own addling near a memory-addled Louis for anything!! And I realise that he outed himself in season 1 so he could openly run interference after Daniel starts causing breakthroughs but why is this happening at all?????
It seems clear that Louis and Lestat have come to an understanding over their shared trauma and pain of a lost daughter and at least some of Louis' self-loathing over being a vampire. It also looks like they parted and are back in their respective corners of the world. Louis purposely burned Daniel's laptop. That and his jibe about the Talamasca publishing the book suggest he DIDN'T want to have it published. Do you think that since it's happened, Louis has decided to 1) go ahead and be suicidal as originally suggested in Season 1 by Armand, 2) is tired of the non-stop vampire radio threats and has taken the bull by the horns, 3) just provided us with a way to bring in 'Akasha' (please enunciate that the same way Lestat/ Sam did in the episode) where Lestat has heard Louis' radio broadcast, will decide to save Louis with the tour (preferably NOT in 50 years after practicing) and thus wakes up The Great Mother?
Kind of a semi-related thought to point one. Isn't it possible that Louis really DID ask for Armand to take away his 1973 memories because he was mentally breaking out of his self-imposed prison/rebound marriage and he couldn't handle it?
Did Louis just sell out his human security team? Is he bitter over Rashid?
Does Louis realise he has a millennial brother vampire now?
Do you think any of the Paris story of episode 8 is true? It seems logical enough that Armand could've been given a choice by the coven, and realising that he was ONLY Louis' default whatever-you-want-to-call it, decided to pick the coven, regretted it and decided to hedge his bets with Louis once the happy coincidence of Lestat's save had come to pass.
Why the hell didn't Louis wait an extra half hour for Daniel to pack up so they could both catch the same flight back to the U.S. Who leaves the homewrecker with the wrecked after the wrecking?!!!!
Do you feel like this was way too quick for the finale? It was clear that ep 7 and 8 should've been combined although I suspect that they wanted the results of the trial to marinate a little. Still, it seemed rather speedy. I felt like I could literally see them jumping from point A to point B to point C etc on storyboards and it was weird, especially for all the heavy lifting this episode had to do.
Do you think that Devil's minion is pre or post Dubai?
All the awards for Sam Reid's delivery of "Did you hurt yourself?" That line just about killed all the strength I had left in me.
Lastly, isn't it amazing just how little Armand has understood in the years since SF? All that 'you forgave me already for this', let's let bygones be bygones etc as he chases after Louis. No Armand, it's mind gift usage for you, or bust!
I am sure there are more but I think this has been more than enough. Thank you so much!!!!!!
Hey :)))
Okay *cracks knuckles* :))
1) You know I actually agree with you there that itâs very muddied waters there. I THINK itâs actually a lot to do with whatever the Talamasca subplot hints at (I have my suspicions re Marius and Raglan and the body thief) and the Talamasca⊠finally got (a bit of) what they wanted. I think⊠Armand let it happen bc he wanted to see Daniel again and bc he thought he could steer it. And Louis⊠Louis wanted it to happen bc things did not add up anymore. But he kept âbeing editedâ, and therefore took a step back into the wholesome romance every time he discovered something.
So⊠probably all three. And the Talamasca really wanted that book out, obviously. But⊠why⊠đ
2) I think that NOLA meeting, as beautiful as it was, will turn out to be the contested NOLA meeting. As such Lestatâs book/whatever will be an answer to Louisâ book. I think Lestatâs rockstar career will indeed both shield Louis and wake Akasha, but probably with twists. I do not think Louis is suicidal. I think he has accepted, to a big part at least.
3) Said it before, itâs absolutely possible Louis asked for the memory erasure at some point. OR Armand interpreted a similar request like that.
4) Louis does not care for humans anymore. That has been clear since 2x01. âTheir problem.â
5) I donât think that is Lestatâs fledgling. I think that term is only meant to hint at the age. I donât see Lestat actually making a fledgling in that state. He may have made a lot of fledglings, but always from love, and that was not that.
6) A derivation of that, likely, yes. Decisions are made from kneaded feelings.
7) At that point Daniel was still mortal. Louis would travel by oversized trunk. He probably thought that impractical. And he thought Armand would still obey. AND his thoughts were already with Lestat I think.
8) Mhhhhh. It was already 10 minutes longer. That said I bet they coukd have given us 2h. It didnât feel that rushed to me, since they stayed closer to the book I did see some things coming, but I would have loved even more, obviously:))
9) BOTH :)
10) God yes. That is when I cried. đ
11) Armand does need to learn a lot still. But⊠he will. Daniel will challenge him to learn and Armand will erise to the occasion. ⊠But itâs not an easy journey.
I hope my answers make sense?! I hope you enjoyed the finale, nonny, I definitely did đ€

Read your post about show DM development, it drew me in since Iâve also in the wake of the season two finale been thinking a lot about what the plan is/was with DM from Rolinsâ and the other writersâ perspective.
The lack of anything solid in regard to DM, any clear hint made me wonder if the DM relationship was planned at all. The thing that keeps confusing me is that Rolins stated years ago, I think when attending a convention in connection to season one, that fans of DM shouldnât worry. Confirming - at least seemingly so - that this relationship would play out in some way. I also donât think he would have affirmed it so clearly if he didnât mean romantically? I dunno. Have you seen the clip? Looking at season one I thought that Armand-as-Rashidâs reaction to Louis offering Daniel the âDark Giftâ was the only real hint that there might be something there.
However after watching season two I felt that the show moved away from the possibility of a past-DM. The Alice stuff never convinced me, Armand didnât seem to be comforting Daniel when he brought up the proposal. The only two aspects about that interaction which made me wonder was the show making a deal of Daniel 1) âfeeling freer to to hold her hand in Parisâ, but this could be due to Alice not being white, which would have added another parallel between Louis and Daniel (their Paris experiences mirroring each other). And 2) the fact that Daniel refers to Alice as his ex-wife, and himself as having been married twice. So did they get married at a later date? Or did Daniel actually lie about marrying her wholesale? Was this scene/reveal meant to be longer/a bigger deal at some point in the writing process? Alternatively maybe they got married later due to legal reasons/for the kid and thatâs why the rejection to his proposal was so painful for Daniel still? I dunno. I donât think there must be anything DM-related here but Iâm not going to claim there couldnât be. There seemed to be something here - or the old and discarded(?) blueprints of a bigger scene possibly?
However If the writers were going past-DM I feel that surely they would have hinted at it at some point - if not outright included that storyline in some small way to start/tease it. The interactions between Armand and Daniel were, imho, quite impersonal in S02E05. Of course the episode can be a good introduction to DM, standing in for Armand imprisoning and starting to hunt Daniel (the learning-to-be-fascinating angle is great) but the show clearly didnât commit to the plot in the episode. Instead possibly(?) just leaving a door open. I was a bit surprised that their dynamic didnât become a bigger thing after the episode.
So maybe DM was not planned to have happened in the past, what actually weirds me out more is the lack of present-DM in this season as well. Like the tension between Daniel and Armand is delicious and fun at times, especially in S02E01 and at some smaller moments (Daniel trying to rile Armand up in the wake up S02E05 with the drinks comment was interesting!). But if the show is going enemies-to-lovers or Armand deciding to pursue Daniel because he now finds him fascinating/Daniel finding Armand fascinating (which was my theory before S02E08) why wasnât there any scenes between the two setting this up? Like I was very surprised and honestly a bit let down that the dynamic between Armand and Daniel didnât become more insane after S02E05, of course Daniel cannot lose it on this ancient vampire but still honestly?! I realize that Louis is the main character, but I feel that the writers had more than enough space and time to include just a scene at some point during the season which would hint at or develop Danielâs and Armandâs dynamic in any way. So I feel a bit weirded out that they didnât? Seems like a deliberate choice, which is strange if DM is planned as a thing they want to dig into next season(?). Though Rolins have only affirmed that they will have scenes together, also some of his comments read as almost a bit defensive to me? Am I crazy or is anyone else reading it as that as well? They did make a big deal of Armand not turning anyone and did choose to have Daniel be turned this season rather than next. Could just have been a good cliff hanger. I donât know, Iâm very confused about their intentions at this point. Sorry for long ask - really wanted to hear your take on all of this.
I think there are a lot of different factors here, I'll try to organize a bit.
Fan perspective:
- first off, DM is book canon. So we book readers might be biased in interpreting scenes because we have expectations
- DM already being canon in the source material also makes it likely to happen in the show
Rolin Jones/creatives:
- they did change book aspects to appeal to a broader modern audience, but also kept the core themes and put in easter eggs.
So they clearly made the show with respect and love for the source material
-every season can be the last one, so everything has to make sense in one season
From that perspective I think RJ focused mainly on Louis and Lestat and the Loustat relationship as a red thread (hence the addition of Dreamstat), but put in small hints at other storylines from the books. Like Nicky and the mention of cut off hands.
With a season 3 focusing on Lestat's story there might be more Nicky, but in season 2 it was cut short (and it's not part of iwtv anyways but tvl).
DM is also not part of iwtv, it happens in the third book, as we all know.
In that Interview with RJ I think he was genuinly surprised people were this interested in DM (they should be mainly focused on Loustat at this point of the story) and got a) a bit defensive and b) genuinly thought he included some snippets/hints with the bottle ep.
So fans did get a pretty intense 70s interaction, just not like in the book.
The storytelling:
-Daniel has tons of issues obvi, especially in regards to relationships, which fits well with Louis' story and makes for a compelling dynamic between the two.
Which is important for the format to work.
I think the Alice mentions are supposed to highlight those issues, just like the paperback thing. And Daniel's daughters have to come from somewhere.
(Personally I'm open to all head canons and fanfic here, including mpreg, because why not, but I do think there isn't much to it in show)
-then there's the Daniel/ Armand dynamic, which starts of as enemies (somewhat) for tension.
There needs to be an underlying threat or at least uneasy feeling. Armand provides that.
And it's clear in their banter.
Also dialogue like: 'you tried to drain me, pal'
'belated apology no. 2' reads more like a frenemy buddy comedy dynamic.
So we have this rivalry between them that can be aggressiv but also compelling and funny.
The actors:
-in a lot of interviews Eric underlines the Armand being Daniel's rival/nemesis/antagonist dynamic.
So that was clearly planned.
He also seems open to a different dynamic, jokes about it and seems to discuss it with Assad (well, Assad brought it up).
-Assad has been joking and teasing the ship from the start. He is clearly personally intrigued by that dynamic and with him and Eric somewhat bonding over their work it might not be to challenging for them to act it out in one way or another.
To conclude: The creatives chose a different focus and did only plan on crumbs (bottle ep and Daniel's turning). The story telling supports that theory.
The fans have different interpretations because of their expectations.
They also voiced those expectations a lot and promoted the show via DM content.
The actors vibe pretty well together and seem to be open to a lot of different things and we know they get to make suggestions and add lib.
So DM might still be happening, if RJ changes his mind, but it will be now and with an enemy to whatever dynamic.
Which I'll take.
This is how I see it anyways.
