You're the Apple of My Eye Anyway by thisyearsmodel
Fandoms: Interview with the Vampire (TV 2022)

Summary
“I can no longer hear your thoughts, Daniel, but I can still tell when they are plaguing you. Out with it. What are you thinking?”
Daniel’s throat clicks on a dry swallow. It unnerves him, how easily Armand can read him. Years of advantage that Daniel doesn’t have. He thought he wouldn’t need it, perceptive mind of a Putlitzer-winning journalist, for whatever that gets him. But that’s nothing compared to Armand. Five hundred years of practiced manipulation. Decades of watching over Daniel and learning him without Daniel's permission.
Daniel’s shoulders sag as he leans against the wall. “I’m wondering…what was different? About me? You held me hostage. You whispered sweet nothings in my ear. You told me to rest. Your fangs were bared and aimed for my neck. And in the end, you let me live. Why?”

Summary
Beverly stands up, wiping the dirt that’s stuck to the sweat of her legs. She looks at the boys with her hands on her hips and one eyebrow raised. “Look it’s either we go to the beach or we all sit around undergroud waiting for the sun to set and I really, really don’t want to waste a summer day being hot and miserable when we could be eating ice cream on a pier.”
It’s silent in the clubhouse, nothing but the buzz of the insects simmering under the sun. Eddie can feel the heat of Bev’s stare on his face just as burning as if he were under the open sky. He flops backwards on the hammock and sighs, resigned to his fate.
“Fine. Fine! We’ll go to the beach.”
The other Losers sigh in relief and maybe a bit of joy at the thought of some reprieve from the heat. Eddie feels a hand tapping at his knee and he looks down at Richie’s smiling face.
“Don’t worry Eds. If a jellyfish stings you, I can just pee on you. Gets the sting right out.”
Eddie’s groan isn’t loud enough to drown out Richie’s laughing.

The Losers go to the beach. Featuring: Eddie pining, Richie flirting, and Stan being absolutely done with the pair of them. -

Summary
“I am totally kicking your ass at that water gun game this year,” Eddie says.
Richie gives Eddie a playful, light shove in the arm right where the cuff of his sleeves are rolled, delighting as always in how it feels to get his hands on Eddie’s bare skin.
“Bullshit dude. In all the years we’ve been going to this thing you haven’t beat me once,” Richie says.
“Yeah? Wanna fucking bet?” Eddie challenges and Richie feels the familiar zap of lightning ricochet up his spine.
Beside him, Stan groans. “We can’t just have a nice time at the carnival, can we?”

Summary
“You gonna ask me to dance or what?”
Richie looks up to see Eddie staring down at him, hands on his hips and fire in his eyes. There’s a thin sheen of sweat covering his brow, his neck, fuck even the slip of skin between the hem of his shirt and his waistband.
“Uh,” Richie says dumbly. “What?”
Eddie smirks at him. “You’ve been sitting here watching me dance for the past 3 songs. I’ve been waiting for you to get up and ask to dance with me.”
-
At a house party, Richie sees his crush from Stats class out on the dance floor and, really, who is he to deny him at least one dance? -

Summary
There’s a little voice in the back of Eddie’s mind, the one that always chides him, that says this is a stupid idea. He’s just prolonging the inevitable. Eventually, they’ll end up in New York and he’ll drop Richie off at the airport so he can go back to LA and Eddie will have to walk back into that house and return to the life he had before he remembered.
“What’d you say, Eds?” Richie asks. He leans across the plastic table with his voice pitched low like he’s whispering a secret.
Eddie wipes his hands on a spare napkin. They’re sticky and he should wash them before they go.
“Okay,” he says. Just saying it out loud makes his chest feel lighter. He nods slowly, a smile breaching his face. “Yeah, okay. Let’s do it.”
-
After defeating Pennywise, the Losers are ready to go back home, except for Eddie and Richie. They decide to take the long way back: a mini road trip from Derry to New York City with some life changing stops along the way.Series

Summary
"What the fuck, Bev?" he asks in a harsh whisper. Beverly sighs, heaving Richie up higher against her as he begins to slip.
"I know. I know!" she says. "I just didn't know where else to take him! I can't bring him home like this. And you know my dad will freak if I bring a boy home. Especially like this."
Like this is drunker than Eddie's ever seen anyone, let alone Richie. He can smell the alcohol seeping out of Richie's pores, something sickly sweet punctuated by the lingering scent of cigarette smoke wafting off both of them. Eddie wrinkles his nose against it, his mouth twisting sourly the closer he nears the two of them.

Summary
“It’s a nickname,” Ziggy says.
“No, really? I thought your parents were, like, big Bowie fans maybe. Or big Quantum Leap fans.”
Ziggy snorts at that, rolling his cigarette in the glass ashtray with the edge of his thumb. It’s not a laugh but Richie still feels a sense of pride at the reaction. He likes this guy’s smile. He wants to see more of it.
“And what about you, Trashmouth? You come out of the womb with unfunny one-liners?”
“So you did catch my act."
-
Richie's first comedy tour in the early 2000s has a stop in Baltimore where he meets a handsome, vaguely familiar stranger. -

Summary
Through his one good eye, he looks up. Spot Conlon’s green eyes shine down on him. Race can’t tell for sure, but if he had to guess, he’d say Spot was smiling at him.
“Heya Spotty,” he groans into the dirt.
It’s the last thing he remembers saying before his eyes close and the static in his ears rings loudly like a bell. And then there’s nothing. Just a big black hole of nothing that Race welcomes eagerly.

Race gets a beating from some Brooklyn newsies who don't know any better. Spot comes to his rescue. -

Summary
"I've had enough of Europe. I'm ready to go back stateside."
Armand tilts his head up, reclaims the cigarette from Louis. The intimacy of the action marred just slightly by the guarded look in his orange eyes.
"New Orleans then?" It's not the first time Armand has suggested it and it won't be the last. But the name from his lips still produces a bitter taste in Louis’ mouth.
"I want to go some place I haven't seen yet," Louis chides, tries to keep some of that bitterness from knocking about in his chest and punching out of his mouth. "I've seen New Orleans, love. I've seen it enough."

Summary
Daniel stares down at Chozen, hands on his hips and one eyebrow raised high. “You want us to take the kids to a bar? Are you serious?”

“Yeah, I’m still hearing the word bar in there.”

Summary
What plays out on the dance floor before him is intimate. There he is (and it is him, in his twenties and young and he’s gotta be coked out of his mind because, what the fuck), hips rolling against the serpentine body of Daniel’s maker. His maker — Armand, in a well tailored burgundy suit, silk dress shirt half unbuttoned, pawing at this young Daniel’s body with a furious desire, all to a song sung by a fucking porn star.
-
In which a newly abandoned Vampire Daniel somehow travels back in time to a San Francisco bar in the 70s and finds himself. With Armand. -
Tags
Summary
He turns in Armand’s embrace and takes a gentle hold of his hips, guiding him closer until he feels Armand hesitate just slightly. Daniel stops the moment he feels it — that little pause in him. Lets Armand hang there, warm with the heavy-lidded eyes of being satiated. The space between them leaves a gaping hole that he feels desperate to fill.
Armand sinks to his knees slowly, fluidly, in little inches until his knees hit the tile and he stares up at Daniel with wide, unblinking eyes.
So. This is the game they’re playing tonight.

Summary
“What’s the hold up?” he asks Miguel. Behind him, LaRusso scoffs.
“It looks like they only have four rooms ready, Sensei,” Miguel says.
Johnny stares blankly. He starts counting on his fingers. Miguel and Robby, that’s 1. Sam and Devon, that’s 2. Hawk and Demetri, that’s 3.
Oh.
“You’ve gotta be shitting me.”

Just your classic hotel reservation mix up fic where two enemies-turned-co-senseis are forced to share a very small European hotel room for a few nights. -

Summary
Daniel’s got two fingers inside Johnny and a hand around his dick when he blurts out, “Come to church with me.”
Johnny’s back is mid-arch, toe curling pleasure starting at the base of his spine that’s got him practically levitating with his hands fisted in the sheets.
“What the fuck?”
In Daniel’s defense, he did try to say it lustily, maybe a little sexy if there can be such a way. But instead it came out more like a casual lunch invitation and now all of this foreplay is starting to feel more like a prostate exam. Dammit.
-
In which Daniel starts going to church again and decides to take Johnny with him against all of his better ideas.
