Summary
Part of my Astarion/Evil Tav timeline and early in the ‘(Transactional) Relationship’ - takes place before ‘Cost of Protection’ and ‘Two sides’, and can be read alone, but might help get some context as to Tav(Durge)/Astarions dynamic.
Summary
The group has made it to the goblin camp in their search for Halsin, and have come across Abdirak who offers to show his Goddess’s ‘affection’ to Tav, only for Tav to force Astarion to take it instead.
There’s so little Abdirak love on AO3 which is a shame for our lovable leather wearing freak.

It’s cannon that Astarion traded his body to Tav in exchange for protection, but this short anonymously requested fic is based off what if the dark urge knew it was a trade off and used Astarion to feed his dark desires.
I have added the rape tag as even though Astarion consents, it’s pretty clear it’s not truly consensual.

Summary
**Re-Post*
This story is a loose follow on from ‘Cost of Protection’.
Astarion was used to using his body as currency to pay for protection and for Tav/Durge to keep the secret about his vampirism from the others in the group.
The harsh brutal treatment from his ‘protector’ leads the pale elf to trying to strike a deal with Ethel, just to know he isn’t yet again, getting on his back for nothing.

Astarion needs to feed and Tav wants to bed the pale elf. A simple transaction, but is the aftermath worth it?
No they aren’t lovers or even friends. This is simply a tit for tat arrangement where they both get what they want from the other.
No lovey dovey or warm squishy feelings. Tav is fully evil, still holding a grudge about what transpired when first meeting the vampire. As for Astarion, he’s famished and to be fair he’s put up with far worse. So expect some nasty comments.
End of the day, it’s just a transaction between consenting adults.

Muses made me write a short follow up piece to ‘Blood Price’ where Astarion feels it’s time to get payback for the things done to him in the past, now that he has the power of Cazador running through his veins.
Tav has been dragged from his bed to face the perceived wrongs of those done to Astarion, but he refuses to see what Astarion sees.
Who’s right… who’s wrong…

The aftermath to Doomed to Repeat - Last in the unintended trilogy - best to read the two previous works before reading this one.
Tav has yet to face the truth… or rather Astarions Truth of how things were between them when on the road to Baldurs Gate.
Astarion sees things one way and Tav another - seems things come to a head, in a way neither intended.
WARNING - Death!!!

**Re-Post**
Inspired by a brutal hard hitting *amazing* piece of Art by Lehanan Aida that hit me so hard in the feels that I just HAD to write this - with her permission of course!

There was a reason Gale said ‘Stop licking the damn thing!’ Turns out Halsin should have listened, as the succubus juices had quite the effect on the huge elf.
Unfortunately Astarions penchant for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, means he bares more than the brunt of Halsin’s drug crazed madness.
CONSTRUCTIVE Feedback as always is greatly appreciated ~ Nasty feedback can just be left at the door. A lot of people on here just write fluffy nice stories and I just write dark angsty stories - Enjoy or skip at your own choice.

Summary
*Game Spoilers*
The group are being held captive in Moonrise Towers (If you try to just leave Act 2 and sneak past the Army, you’ll be caught and locked up in Moonrise) and one of their group is chosen to be Araj’s new test subject.
Those potions and elixirs won’t brew themselves and what better Guinea pig/Test Rat than a vampire who can only be killed by certain means.
Plus we know Araj has had fantasies of doing certain things with a vampire since she was a little girl. So when opportunity presents itself to finally get her hands on one, it’s safe to say that she would answer with an emphatic ‘Yes, I want It.’

Summary
Astarion is left on watch at camp whilst everyone else has gone to bed.
Past shadows of trauma and abuse start to unfurl when someone is at an emotional low, but luckily the best camp healer Halsin is on hand to try and offer some much needed shelter in those oak trunk sized arms of his.
Takes place in Act 1 and the pair barely know each other so no relationship to speak of. It’s just one elf trying to care for another.
Smut to follow in chapter two

Just a little artwork and very short song inspired fluff piece in my Tav/Astarion/Halsin relationship HC
Song Is What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish (please listen to while you read - It makes me tear up when I hear it everytime) and as soon as I heard it, it just made me think of Astarion and made me want to write something. Then I saw some amazing art pieces which seemed to fit really well and I thought I would put it all together and share them.
Please support these amazing Artists if you are able to. Their talent and hard work deserves to be recognised and appreciated. It feeds the muses.
