Summary
“You know that’s not true.” William takes Gabe’s hand to play with his fingers, twisting the engagement ring. He glances up toward Gabe. “Love doesn’t exist for people like us. The ‘til death do us part’ is a load of bull when you're already dying.”
“Dying people get married all the time.”
“Not people who are trying to die.”
-----------
Weddings are supposed to be a happy ending. Not in the finale to the Decaydance Weightloss Competition, though!

Summary
Gabe was not pleased in the slightest to see his soon-to-be ex-husband standing at the doorstep to an apartment that was supposed to be all his now, a symbolic transition into his new life, and yet, no matter how hard he blinked, William was still standing there, fresh out of the office in his tailored suit and cradling a bottle of chardonnay in his arms.
“When I gave you my address,” Gabe said slowly, “I thought it was obvious that it was for, y’know, dropping off our daughter or legal documents or shit I forgot.”
“I know,” William said, beaming that excellent and expensive dental care kind of smile.
-----------
While seeking a divorce from his CEO ex-husband William Beckett, Gabe mistakenly lets him into his apartment to have sex one last time. When he finds out he's pregnant, Gabe does what any rational person would do: lie that the father of the baby is actually his divorce lawyer, Pete Wentz.

In which Lestat walks a mile in Jarda’s shoes.

Meet at Ascetics, 6pm. Arun.
Arun! Oh, Arun, Arun! What fun!"Bookmarked by shallowlives

Summary
"I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."
"This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"
"Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."
"Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."
