[ adam and rowan haven't talked much since his visit - not because anything's wrong, just because there's not much to say, aside from occasional check-ins to see how the treatment was working. so when adam randomly receives that video attachment he stares at the number it came from for a good thirty seconds, not entirely believing rowan would send him something like this out of thin air.
eventually, he replies: ]
lmao what the fuck??
u didn't even make a move when u had me pinned underneath u lol...
[He was, as per usual, at work. So the text coming in surprised him. He didn't think Adam needed another treatment yet. It had taken months for it to get to the point where it had been affecting him before, and now that Lestat knew there was a cause and effect, he might be a bit more careful with his pet.
He read his texts while going to grab a tea, pausing in his stride at the words and trying to figure out if they were meant for him.]
[Panic now, because the only videos he had on his phone were specifically taken for a specific vampire- though apparently everyone was looking at those now. He went through his messages, frowning.
Then clarity struck.]
Apologies. It must have been the littles. They have their own phone for emergencies now. Apparently pestering you is an emergency. What did they send?
[ the dual messages make adam laugh, loud and bright, enough for lestat to peer over at him curiously from his makeup chair. he takes a deep inhale of his cigarette, pondering over what to say, before finally: ]
i think they want u to fuck me lol
[ he toys with the idea of sending a porno clip, but eventually figures it's best not to set the doctor off. not yet, anyway. so he simply attaches the same video clip and waits to see how rowan will respond to his small friends' antics. ]
[He frowned at the message, then opened the video link. He, stupidly perhaps, had just taken a sip of his tea when the video started playing. Tea sprayed everywhere. Dear gods in all the nine realms, where the fuck had the little shits gotten this from?
He apologized to anyone passing by as he started sopping up the mess, then banged his head on the wall for a moment. Right. Response. Somehow, he knew the pixies were aware of this and were laughing at him.]
They seem to enjoy being little voyeurs and Lestat has spoiled them. Apologies again. I'll have to explain to them what emergencies are.
[ the long pause before the next message isn't exactly surprising, and adam settles himself back into the worn-out couch in their dressing room. lestat hated it, of course, but adam liked it too much for him to complain; it reminded him of home. ]
yeah. much better actually haven't had any nightmares since then so i guess u really are magic :p
but sometimes i have dreams about this like. weird forest it's not scary but i've never been anywhere like that so i'm kinda guessing it's cause of whatever u did to fix me
[He frowned as he read that, thinking about what he'd done. Then he groaned and slid a hand over his face.]
More apologies are in order on my end. It would seem that my bond with Lestat has affected the tie he has to you. I didn't expect that.
[Not that he thought it might have changed what he did. But he should have thought of the metaphysical ties between the two. Still, the boy was human. It hadn't occurred to him.]
Do you see anything in this forest? Does it look of this earth?
[Best to know which side of the veil Adam was getting a glimpse of.]
[Well, lovely. Now he was going to shit his pants. His father had direwolves as part of his retinue, wolves of the deep woods in Winter that defended him zealously. Adam seeing one of his father's pets made him question... well. Everything. If his father was reaching out to track his magic after he'd fled. If his own ties to Winter were becoming more than what they'd used to be, which seemed to be the case.
Fuck.]
I believe you're seeing the Winter Woods. I used to play in them as a child. If you have a choice, avoid the wolf.
[He had two fears now; that it was his father's wolf, or that he was calling one to himself that might show up at some point. Shit. Shit, shit, shit. Time for private panicking.]
[ for the first time, adam feels afraid of rowan. but, at the same time, that warning reminds him of the memories he himself would rather keep locked away. ]
is it actually that dangerous? isn't it just a dream?
[ his nightmares have often left a physical imprint on him after he awoke, but none actually harmed him. ]

Lestat is a bad influence, and Lestadam is a worse one. Save him.

Date: 2026-02-13 04:53 pm (UTC)No, he wouldn't do that, but he'd think it really hard in that moment.]
I wouldn't have an idea. You seem

idk the wolf didn't seem mean
it felt like it wanted to show me something i think
i don't really remember
no subject
Date: 2026-02-14 02:21 am (UTC)[That, Adam, is exactly why humans got lost in the woods all the time. Thinking the things with teeth just wanted to show you the way.]
Whatever it wants to show you is likely not good.

[ said with equal parts sass and affection. by now, adam's come to learn that even lestat doesn't know as much about magic-related things as rowan. ]
i'll tell you if the dreams change
i'm just grateful lestat isn't fucking murdering me in them any more
so
thanks for that

no subject
Date: 2026-02-14 02:48 am (UTC)idk if you've seen him when he's sad but it's honestly traumatizing
makes me feel like a kicked a puppy
...but vitamins are gross
no subject
Date: 2026-02-14 02:50 am (UTC)Such is life when you eat like a toddler. Take a multivitamin. You're iron deficient and you're not in the sun enough, so you need vitamin D.
VITAMIN D, not vampire dick, which is where I'm assuming you'll go with that one.
no subject
Date: 2026-02-14 02:57 am (UTC)i don't eat like a toddler!!
toddlers can't chew
so how would they eat pizza and burgers?? huh???
...i was just gonna say vitamin dick but that's way better lol
how about i just come see you again and you fix me up, doc? that's way easier
plus i bet the littles miss me 😘

Date: 2026-02-14 03:00 am (UTC)[Why was he arguing with a child? Oh, right. Because he was Lestat's child. Obviously.]
I am a last resort. Imagine if I died? Then what would you do?
no subject
Date: 2026-02-14 03:08 am (UTC)trust me
you're not gonna die tho
you're like. more powerful than lestat
and way older
if u lived this long ur probably invincible!
also it would make lestat sad and you just said you don't wanna see him be sad again so. :p
