Desperate Measures

[This is a ficlet thing requested by i-want-my-iwtv based on my post here. It got a little longer than I expected. It’s Daniel and Armand fighting over giving him the blood. It’s about 1,200 words.]

By my thirtieth birthday, Night Island had started to feel more like a tomb than a palace. Thirty isn’t old, but you have to remember, I was living with a vampire who didn’t age. He’d died at seventeen and could pass, maybe, for twenty-three on a good night when he was dressed in sharp clothes and cut his hair short.

And yet I was spending more time in front of the mirror, plucking tiny gray hairs from my head. I was losing my stamina: staying up all night started to cost me in ways Armand could never have understood. My body ached in strange places. Recovery from whirlwind travel or a massive drunk took longer and longer. Tiny lines etched themselves across my face. The gap between our appearances widened.

sketchbook pages…. the top is all vampire chronicles! lestat, louis and armand & chibi daniel lol

the armand sketch was finished digitally & from the scene in qotd in the jet. the way daniel describes armand was very visually striking: the “funeral” dark suit, gold watch, his hair clipped short and wearing a weary but young expression. 

second page is is some random-ass doodles and louis on the right.

third is a bunch of in-progress form/shape exercises but i fucked up the page and wrote a recipe on it next to a doodle of armand i had. so armand is telling you how to make a tasty blood mary. (don’t forget 3 oz of vodka!)

If you become a vampire do you automatically become a very sharp dresser or is that a skill that you develop over time. are there novice vampires meandering around in aeropostale shirts and khaki pants

If Daniel’s clothing in Prince Lestat is anything to go by, then yes…

Do vampires go on dates? What happens? Murder? Movies?

Oh, yes. We get each other corsages and flowers and then go out on the town in matching suits to be as conspicuous as possible.
