    Summary

    Armand discovered podcasts around the same time he discovered Lush, which now means that Daniel will come home at least once a week to a bombardment of scents and voices he doesn't recognise.

    No true crime podcasts were hurt in the writing of this fic

    Summary

    "I could tell it from your face even if I couldn't read your mind. Daniel, Daniel, Daniel. Is this what it was like about me, those early days? Were you driving everyone crazy with it, thinking nothing but Louis, Louis, Louis?" He says it casually, teasingly, but he's looking out at the crowd and Armand can't see his eyes. Sometimes he wonders if he taught Louis too well how to mask his own thoughts.

    "No," he says immediately. "No, no, that was — that was love. Is love. This is …" He hesitates. "A fascination. Nothing more."

    "A fascination, huh," Louis says.

    Summary

    A year after being turned in Dubai, Daniel Molloy returns to the San Francisco apartment where, in 1973, he first met Louis and Armand. The walls are unchanged. He is not.
    The room becomes a courtroom. Armand, the defendant. Daniel, judge, witness, and executioner.
    Daniel puts Armand on trial—not only for the night he took his life, but for every silence, every manipulation, every half-truth dressed as love.
    In this charged confrontation, the line between justice and vengeance blurs. Old wounds are reopened, ancient fears laid bare, and what began as an execution might end as something far more dangerous: understanding.

    Summary

    “Petra tou Romiou, huh? Didn’t figure you one for tourist traps,” Daniel offers into the night air.

    "They say that Venus, Aphrodite, whichever name you know her by, emerged from the sea foam here. She was never a baby, or a child, she emerged beautiful, with love and lust and desire following behind her,” Armand recounts.

    “Yeah, this is her rock we’re sitting on, apparently," Daniel agrees non-committedly. "Cut the bullshit, we need to talk.”

    Armand says nothing. Continues staring out at the ocean.

    “Look at me,” Daniel hisses.

    Armand turns to face him, and the breath is punched out of his chest.

    Seeing him again, in the flesh, beautiful and inhuman, Daniel is forced to remember that this is not just another story he has been chasing. There is no book at the end of this year's long line of inquiry, no documentary or Pulitzer-winning article. No professional detachment. There is just this—two monsters on a beach and a horrible amalgamation of emotions that fill Daniel’s rotted heart and scarred throat.
