"The world is better for you being in it," Daniel tells him, clutching him close. "You don't have to give anything up. Just be here."
Maybe they're both shitty people when you get right down to it. Daniel who ruins marriages and children, who picks apart peoples lives; Louis exploited women, digs deep into capitalism, and now Daniel has joined him in being a blood-draining monster. But Daniel's world is better for Louis being here. He is a light, and for every harsh word and cruel trick they played on the other during the interview, for all the horror they survived one week in the past, Daniel might just fucking love him.
"I'll be okay. We'll be okay."
How, he's not sure yet. But Louis made it, and that gives Daniel hope.
