    Summary

    He knows what Daniel is about to say before he begins.

    “Yeah, hey listen. I got some fact checking to do—”

    “I’ve told you, Daniel. I’ve given my story. He can give his. I declined to participate in this documentary—”

    “I watched you feed on Armand in Dubai, right? I’m not making that up?”

    Louis’s hands pause. That wasn’t what he was expecting at all.

    Or

    For 114 years, Louis had an aversion to drinking Lestat's blood, but not for the reason Lestat thinks. Daniel reaches out to Louis for a fact check.

    Summary

    "The Tuesday after she gave him the shirt back and he ruined her life with a scarf, things are suspiciously fine. Good, even. Service is smooth, dishes go out on time, there’s barely a raised voice in the kitchen. At one point Carmy puts his hand on her back to get past her and she doesn’t even react. Her self-control needs to be studied in history books. "

    (Or as Virginia Woolf said, "Yes yes yes I do like you. I am afraid to write the stronger word.")

    Summary

    But she ain’t his. He didn’t expect anyone else to see it the way he does.

    They’ve never defined this thing between them, easier to leave the big things unsaid and just try to hold it together on the bad days.

    His last Father’s Day was twenty years ago. He ain’t that man anymore. This day ain’t for him.

     

    (It’s Father’s Day, and Joel tries to adjust)

    Summary

    Secretly, she always figured the whole thing would be like a broken bone. Like, as long as you brace it and don’t do anything to fuck with the brace, bones fix themselves—that’s just what they do. It’s painful, yeah, but it’s inevitable, and most importantly, it happens in the background of your life until one day, you can move your arm again, or your leg, or whatever.

    Forgiveness would be like that. It would just happen, even though Ellie swore up and down she’d stay broken.

    Ellie wants to forgive Joel. She's starting to worry that she can't.
