    Summary

    On good days, Louis let him serve. Armand could let the role consume him, his mind empty, holding his hands behind his back as if they were bound for hours. And there was pain, yes, there was always pain; the crop and the flogger, reward and punishment. An intoxicating sensicality. Here is what you have done; here is what will be made of it.

    But sometimes Louis was elsewhere, and Armand did all he could to claw himself back to the burning spotlight of Louis’s attention. He paid in careful obedience, in well-performed penitence, in a willingness to endure whatever was asked of him.

    Today: Louis needed this. And Armand needed to be what Louis needed. There was nothing else.

    Louis comes home angry. Armand faces the yawning edge of what he is willing to endure to bring Louis back to him.

    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

    When he lets him go, Daniel is out of breath and hard as a rock. He feels dazed already, but then Armand's amber eyes lock onto his and a brain fog settles over him, making him feel heavy. Thoughts swim through his head – of the last week, of the copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula he got from the library and read every night, of the Vampirella zines under his bed, the comic book fantasies, tentacles and plants and helplessness…

    “You want to be a victim so bad,” Armand says, amusement and mockery in his voice in equal measure. The brain fog lifts, but Daniel still feels strangely subdued. “Do you want to be my victim, Daniel? Do you want to be powerless?”

    Daniel is nodding – he never even thought the question over, he shouldn't be nodding, he shouldn't be asking for, or even assenting to, being anyone's victim, especially not a monster's – but it's too late, he's being lead into the bedroom, he's said yes… and he can't wait.

    Armand positions him at the foot of the bed.

    “Rest.”

    Summary

    Why doesn't he remember this? Was he asleep?

    “I do a lot of suffering lately,” his own voice rasps on a sigh. Not asleep, then. “It's called growing old.”

    “Is it really so bad?” again, Armand sounds… weird. Sad, tortured almost, wistful, regretful… Daniel must be imagining it.

    “Right now? Yeah, it's really fucking bad.”

    Silence. Daniel manages to unfreeze long enough to walk back to his couch and sit down. There is still a large chunk of the recording left. His state of the art microphone is just about picking up his laboured breathing, coming out of the speakers of his not state of the art laptop very quietly despite the volume being cranked up.
