god it’s just like. what if your guardian angel was actually real and a vampire and he almost killed you but he saw your spark and your pain and himself in it and your beautiful messy human potential and he looked you in the eyes and he put the same hand he grabbed you with on your shoulder to comfort you and with the same mouth that almost drained you he said you matter. You matter. and you never even knew that the voice in your head was his all along. what if it saved your life more times than you can count. what if you’re finally in the position to return the favor. what then!!!!!

Can we please talk about what a beautiful metaphor for their relationship this entire shot is. The two of them clinging to one another in the middle of the storm. The shack is falling down all around them. The hurricane is coming for them. The windows are shattering but they're holding firm to one another. They are not letting go. They will weather this storm and they will do it TOGETHER.

Devil's minion fic rec list!
these are just a few recs I was putting together for some friends. this list isn't exhaustive, it's just what I've clicked on and enjoyed so far. the tag is updating at lightning speed right now (bless you all) so there is absolutely a bunch of amazing fics I haven't read yet!
btw these are majority show canon. I haven't read the books. also I made categories that made sense to me, if they don't make sense to you don't worry about it just ignore them lol
Post season 2
Dubai penthouse immediately after (turning daniel)
hold me like water (christ, hold me like a knife) by sahwen (6.7k) the vulnerability of armand in this one is so intriguing. I really loved it
in the detail(s) by infinitevariety (6.7k) a favorite line so far ‘armand curled up like a dying spider’. that's exactly him right after louis leaves
The Beginning Is the End Is the Beginning by trinityofone (1.9k) daniel gets turned, but with an added power
Post turning daniel
two truths and a liar by andrealyn (9.9k) daniel goes on a book press tour and armand turns up
what's it called when a young guy pays old men for their company by
chaosandteo (1.3k) daniel's daughters find out he's a homewrecker
Couch Surfers' Honor by tihsho (1.3k) two things in my head: 1. armand curled around daniel like a creature 2. the way daniel stops drinking to bitch at armand I'm shrieking
During s2 (alternate canons)
how memory makes monsters into myth by blueskiddoo (5.9k) alice is armand theory, wip but I'm BIG EYES over it. I love the set up so far
the spiral is unspooling by reedroad (60k) wip but pretty hefty already (60k!). the devils minion chapter incorporated into the past of the show, with daniel uncovering his memories of armand. very good read with lush world building. my fav thing in this is how daniel is written, and his daughters popping up in the fic.
Past hijinks (post s2 canon)
you're sharp alright by LuckyDiceKirby (4.4k) mid 2000's daniel gets picked up by a weirdo at a bar :) it's a pattern
Post season 1 (before s2 came out)
outcast of all this night by gaypiratedivorce (37k) long and fun, armand follows daniel back to new york and stalks him while he writes this book. "Please don't tell me Louis dumped you and now you're fucking with my work to get back at him."
icarus' life has only just begun by andrealyn (15.9k) daniel gets de-aged (on purpose by armand) he wants to live a life with him from the beginning again

season six spuffy is also nuts bc spike is clearly like. please just tell me i’m good and let me sit at your feet on the off chance you want to give me scraps and buffy WANTS to hold his leash (and yank on it) and she wants him to bite her hand so she has an excuse to hit him except. that sort of urge would upend the status quo (not just in their relationship but again, the bedrock the slayer/vampire dynamic is built upon) so instead spike has to play the corrupting influence to buffy’s reluctant and seduced white knight and it doesn’t fit either of them anymore!!!!!!!! spike says “you belong here in the shadows with me” but it sounds like “i accept you for all that you are and nothing in the dark could resist you” spike says “stop me” but it sounds like “tell me what you want” spike says “look at your friends and tell me you don’t like getting away with this” and it sounds like “isn’t this fun isn’t this worth Being Alive”

people saying s3 everyone on iwtv universe twitter will be like wow this rockstar really took that book seriously but what about when they see two time pulitzer prize winning investigative journalist daniel molloy publish this book insisting vampires are real suddenly stop doing any interviews on day time talkshows and start wearing fuckass little sunglasses everywhere. it didn't sell 5 million copies because it's good it sold 5 million copies because everyone has GOT to know what the fuck is up with this guy

he looks like an inbred british aristocrat who died of hemophilia at the age of 24. he looks like the portrait of heloise in portrait of a lady on fire before they fucked. this man has no rizz

just imagined A Situation where louis, lestat, armand and daniel are all in the same place years after the dubai chapter and they find themselves surrounded by REAL danger so armand goes to try and fend off the worst of it and asks lestat to go with since they're the two oldest vampires of the bunch but louis steps up and says something like “no, he’ll stay behind with daniel, he can protect him” and armand just stares at him until louis adds “and you’ll protect me”. then daniel is all like “do i not get a say in this” and armand and louis go “no” in perfect sync and just like that they’re off and lestat is on babysitting duty for the night
