Director's Cut (or the story of Armand putting his hand in the garbage disposal until he feels something) by ByeDisaster
Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)
26 Jul 2026
Tags
Summary
Armand has notes for Daniel's documentary on Lestat. He sends him unhinged emails about it. Armand breaks into other people's minds so he can stalk Daniel more efficiently. (I'm trying to channel the pure insanity of Devil's Minion, but also tie in the current season. There will be one chapter per Vampire Lestat episode).
“I drank that disgusting drink so you could taste it,” and he holds out his still-bleeding fingertip. Smiles: small, tentative. “Please?”
Daniel’s crossed the room, and he’s cracked down to his knees which Armand wasn’t expecting (Armand almost calls out: “your knees!” forgetting Dan’s bones are no longer human bones), and he has Armand’s finger in his mouth and he’s sucking. Armand gasps in, horks in the air. Staggers back so he’s got his other hand bracing on the counter.
“How do I- taste?” Armand hisses.
Daniel guides Armand’s knuckle deeper, then pops it out. “Vermouth. No annihilation.”
CHAPTER SEVEN IS A CONTINUATION/REACTION TO EPISODE 7 OF THE VAMPIRE LESTAT

Summary
The wrong man lived.
Gale Dekarios sacrificed himself to save the world and left his true love, Rowan Ravenshade, behind to survive the aftermath- hollow, grief-stricken, and tucked away inside her uncle's manor while he sells her future to the highest bidder. She had nothing left. No companions. No allies. No one to come to her aide.
On the other side of the city, Enver Gortash is dealing with a Parliament full of potential enemies, a succession crisis he can no longer ignore, and a list of eligible bachelorette's that he finds increasingly offensive.
All except for one.
He remembers the weight of her as she fought him. The sound she made when the world almost ended before their eyes. And for the last two years, he's had to convince himself that it hasn't affected him. That he has not thought about it since.
But karma comes for those who lie to themselves.
A "political marriage." A problem solved. A wife who will almost certainly attempt to murder him at the earliest available opportunity.
Enver Gortash has survived worse.
Probably.

Summary
Rook raised an eyebrow at him. “I wouldn’t have expected you to be interested in my training.”
Solas looked surprised, “You tread a path whose shadows you embrace, because it leads to a destination that you choose. I, too, have found that sometimes in the quiet stillness of the night, such darkness reveals truths that daylight hides.” A wolfish grin crossed his face as he added, “And perhaps it is not only the shadows that hold my interest.”
She said quickly in an attempt to fill the silence, “Watching me is not all that interesting.”
“Would it disappoint you to learn that I found it to be a pleasurable pastime?” Solas asked lightly.
Rook’s stomach swooped as she responded in a kind of test flirt just to see how far he would take this. “I had no idea that you found watching me . . . pleasurable.”
Solas approached her. He captured her in his gaze, his eyes bright with interest. “Perhaps I enjoy discovering what prowls in the night. I find curiosity often leads to unexpected delights.” Solas started to leave, but before he disappeared he said, “The blanket was most welcome.”
He knew! Of course, he knew.
Rook had no idea that Solas could be so . . . provocative.

Summary
Brienne is at the fabulously beautiful five-star Cinnamon Wind hotel in the Summer Isles, just outside of Tall Trees Town. She's lying on a deckchair by the eternity pool that overlooks the beach, wearing nothing but a sensible swimming costume, a shawl to stop her shoulders burning, reasonably priced sunglasses, and a big floppy hat Margaery bought her.
She comes down here most mornings just after sunrise to make use of the cool temperatures and read a chapter of her book, which is a very interesting exploration of maternal grief and the psychological impact of...
Oh, what the hells. She comes down here every morning to look at *him*.

Summary
“Are you Gal’s mum?” The man asked. Brienne narrowed her eyes. She definitely hadn’t met this man before - frankly there was no way she would have forgotten meeting someone this beautiful. He was, by far, the most attractive person she had ever seen in real life. Golden blonde curls, sharp green eyes, a jawline that could cut glass. Frankly it was absurd how gorgeous he was.
“Yes.” Brienne answered reluctantly.
“I’m Dunc’s dad. I don’t know if Gal has mentioned-“
“Oh!” Brienne answered, instantly relieved. “Yes, of course. I’m Brienne, lovely to meet you.” She offered her hand. The man took it but with his left hand instead of the right. He shook it backwards but was smiling easily. Christ, even his smile was stunning. Brienne couldn’t help but look down at his right hand and saw an empty sleeve where the hand should have been. Don’t stare, Brienne chastised herself.
“I’m Jaime.” The man introduced himself. “Lovely to meet you too.”

Summary
Halsin has every reason to hate Drow. From his time in the Underdark to Minthara’s “hospitality” at the goblin camp, they’ve brought him nothing but pain. So imagine his surprise—and confusion—when his savior from said camp is none other than a Drow. He tries to be civil, he really does. After all, she’s not quite like the others. She’s not sadistic, conniving, or bloodthirsty like those he’s known. Logically, he knows she had nothing to do with what happened to him all those years ago—but trust is harder to build than resentment.
Vyssira is nothing if not a survivor. She survived Menzoberranzan. She survived her parents’ cruelty. She survived Baldur’s Gate. And when everything was taken from her again and again, she survived that too. Now, with a mind flayer tadpole in her skull and a ticking clock toward ceremorphosis, she has no choice but to rely on others who share her fate—and a druid who wants nothing to do with her. Maybe, this time, survival could mean healing too.
AKA the super self-indulgent enemies to lovers character study about Halsin and his feelings towards drow, because I don't see it getting explored as much as it should. Be the change you want to see in the world, kids.

Summary
“Mister Dekarios, you brought home a friend?” Tara hovered in front of Yrelia but because it was dark she couldn’t tell if the tressym was scrutinizing her or not.
“Ah, well Tara, Yrelia isn’t just a friend,” he said with that sweet smile of his. He took her hand and held it tightly. “No, in fact, she is much, much more than that. She is my fiancée.”
Tara’s gaze flitted between Gale and Yrelia. “Interesting,” she said. “You leave for months and return to me saying you’re engaged. You didn’t think to mention this relationship when we saw each other in Baldur’s Gate?” She flew over to Gale. “I swear, Mister Dekarios, you never cease to amaze me.”

It has been a few months since the battle with the Netherbrain and Baldur's Gate is trying to rebuild.
As heroes of the Sword Coast, the once tadpoled companions head out for new adventures. Astarion finds a temporary cure so he can walk in the sunlight.

Living in the Lower City with Scratch and the Owlbear cub, Tav keeps herself to herself.

This is all set to change when the charismatic Archduke reaches out and offers her a deal. Rumours of the Crown of Karsus resurfacing, a Bhaalspawn murder cult on the rise and the chance for Tav to regain what she has lost.

Summary
Nearly a year has passed since Rook last saw Solas. It's not that she intentionally puts him out of her mind, but the sting of remembering his manipulation of her vulnerability is enough psychological deterrent to prevent her mind from drifting there on the average day. And now, here she is; drifting. Hurtling, more like, thanks to the alcohol.
or
After a night of drinking and trading stories with Dorian and the ex-Inquisitor, Rook wonders about Solas and his journey to atone, alone in the Fade. It's just enough to draw her back into his orbit.
