Fics like “I don’t talk about your scars, because I don’t like to think of you hurt”

SPOILERS TVL EPISODE 7. I wrote this to heal me: Louis yells at Gabriella, eviscerates her with his words (his special skill). Louis tells Lestat about his day with Armand. Louis comforted after being tortured. Kisses the red bumps of the wolf-scars, mouthing along the symbols of old pain. Licks when he gets to the end of one, then starts at another. Lestat’s head is drooping back, breathing open-mouthed at the ceiling. He’s murmuring Louis’ name over and over, lost in the vowels. Intoning like a prayer, reminding Louis of churches. Louis finishes, lips not yet numb: but tingling from the puckered skin, from taking his time, from putting love into it. He whispers, “I hate that you got hurt.” Lestat crying again, lord Jesus. It’s funny, it’s beautiful how this man cries. In his baritone, he just repeats it back, “I hate that you got hurt.” SPOILERS EPISODE 7 fix-it, hurt with so much comfort
