    Summary

    John made no attempt to hide how delighted he was about Arthur’s improving health. He’d routinely brought Arthur cuts of raw meat, nursing him back to something resembling “healthy” for a vampire. As Arthur was able to maintain himself more and more throughout the day, John found that he had much more down time when he wasn’t worrying about him. He’d spend most of the day sitting on the couch beside Arthur, reading aloud to him when he was conscious enough to listen. And when he wasn’t, John would read to himself, letting the real world pass him by in favor of makeshift ones on paper and ink.

    Slowly, he found that the wariness had started to lose him. Arthur’s sleeping grew less restless each passing day, and then he’d started sleeping less at all. He’d gotten better at controlling his blood lust, and so John promised him a night out as soon as it was dark enough.

    Summary

    Parker and Arthur's investigative relationship might be blossoming, but there are things Arthur doesn't know about Parker. On a week where Parker seems particularly twitchy, Arthur tails him to an illegal, underground fighting ring. There, he confronts Parker and affirms - to Parker's incredulity - that they're in this together.

    Summary

    Mid-afternoon commuters pass by without a second look as he continues to slow, the ache in his legs growing stronger and stronger, and his right ankle twinges and threatens to roll beneath each step.

    No…no, he refuses to collapse. Damn John for thinking he can't do this. It's a trip to the goddamn store. He can make it. It's only two more blocks. He doesn't let himself think about the walk back; he just needs to get inside and hold onto a shelf for a moment to catch his breath.
