I also desperately want this fic, and I looooove the little hints you planted about what’s coming with them talking about magnus and what happened in their past with the bdsm (ANOTHER fic I desperately want—both for what you said happened in their past and for the idea of them trying the restraining Lestat again in the present, which YES PLEASE) and l’m now thinking, would Louis, whether he was conscious of it or not, have some sense of this really being like a first time for Lestat (I mean, no sex in 80 years is quite a reset) and would some awareness of what Lestat experienced with Magnus (again, even if he doesn’t want to think about it) make him want it to be perfect for Lestat?
basically the way you write them being so possessive of each other, and especially how you write Louis being possessive of Lestat (there’s not enough of that in fic!) makes me insane, sorry
Yeah! I mean, I'm still figuring out how I'm going to do it / working my way into it, but I think the degree of intimacy would be on a lot of levels with it being their first time in so long, and Lestat's with anyone since they were last together at all, which is what I wrote in that little section of Dogless.
I tend to not think it'd be particularly planned, because a) I don't think either of them are great planners when it comes to each other [or sexual relationships in general, haha, beyond Lestat's initial seduction with Lily], but also b) I think if Louis gives himself the space to talk himself out of it, he probably would given where he's at at the end of s2 in really trying to live with and embrace all these parts of himself on his own, and if anything, I think him realising that Lestat's not really been sleeping around in the way he used to would actually put a lot of pressure / emotional weight on it all too. I think that emotional weight would make him pretty hesitant to go there at all when he has his head on straight, y'know? Which story / character-wise makes me think it would be something fairly impulsive / a surrender to desire, and I think it's that particular beat of what would make them both give in to it that I haven't quite figured out yet.
But yes! It's been a fun one to percolate on, and I'll definitely write it at some point, haha.
