Summary
Astarion has spent more than his fair share of time in and out of hospitals and emergency rooms, and one thing is always guaranteed : no one knows what to do with him. He's used to being misunderstood, questioned, and flat-out accused of lying or exaggerating.
But he's sick. He knows he is. He just doesn't know why.
Dr. Gale Dekarios has always loved a challenge. A chance encounter with a beautiful - and mysterious - patient leaves him thinking about the man for days, and when the man appears in his office a week later, Gale is determined to find the answers he deserves.
A story about being seen, being cared for, and falling in love.

Summary
Astarion wasn’t sulking, nor was he hiding from Gale. He was simply taking a relaxing moment to himself. A relaxing moment in the dark, pressed between boxes in what was presumably a storage room.
Sometimes it's easier to ignore an issue when you've got more imminent problems to deal with. Now that he's finally safe, Astarion finds it might be harder to ignore said issues.
This is a direct continuation of 'Bat'tered by the Storm. Updates on Fridays.

A foreboding forest that ensnares the unwary. A folkloric "Beast" the locals speak about in fearful whispers. And a strange recluse that is far more than meets the eye.

Summary
Freshly promoted to junior partner at a prestigious law firm, Astarion has finally earned the position and stability he’d worked for for over a decade. When his carefully suppressed heats return without warning, threatening both his hard-won career and his sense of safety, the last thing he expects is his quiet neighbor from across the hall stepping in to save him.
As old trauma and biology collide, Astarion must learn to trust in kindness that doesn’t come at a cost and decide whether he can believe an alpha who wants nothing more than to care for him.Bookmarked by AnHiLo

Summary
In hindsight, destroying her apartment probably hadn’t been the best method to show Mystra his love.

As their little cat hearts grow closer, Gale is forced to confront whether he was truly as bad of a cat as Mystra always told him.

Summary
Wyll Ravengard is one exhausted grad student, needing some quick cash in the midst of a busy semester. Luckily for him, Professor Szarr has an easy task at hand—to watch over his beloved husband Astarion for the weekend, while Cazador flies off for a conference.
See, Astarion is ill. Very ill.
Or...is he?
~*~
"Uh," Wyll stalls. "I mean...thank you, sir, for trusting me with this. But I don't really have any experience with nursing, or any caregiving really—wouldn't it be better to hire a day nurse, or—"
"Astarion is not just sick in body," Szarr interrupts. "I'm afraid he's also quite sick in the mind. And you understand the mind, Wyll. You understand it better than many of the students I've seen over my years here. So please, tell me. Are you willing to do this?"

Summary
On instinct Astarion looked up through his lashes and winked. When he moved to uncover himself, leaving just a bit over his hips in a tease, pain shot through his little body. That’s right, he’s not in his elven form and Gale was most likely not attracted to bats. At least Astarion hoped he wasn’t.
Plan B: become utterly adorable.Bookmarked by AnHiLo

Summary
It took a moment for the Elf’s words to fully register. “Ancunín? Wait. You’re A. Ancunín?”
Gale’s fluttering heart slammed down into his stomach. He dropped Astarion’s hand, his own smile becoming more strained. Of course his entitled deskmate would be attractive; he was likely used to getting anything he wanted through charm. Well Gale wasn’t falling for it.-
Gale cannot stand his coworker Astarion and Astarion cannot understand why his coworker Gale is being such a dick.

Summary
After a tragic lab accident that claims the life of his partner, Gale becomes a recluse. His best friend Lae'zel, invites hims to a game of D&D at the local Game shop. When Gale works up the courage to attend, he meets a charming and fascinating Rogue that shuts off the noise in his head.
"The scars from the accident that had shrunk his world down to these four walls were mainly hidden under his clothes. His left hand bore the worst of his shame—the flesh was pitted and warped from the explosion that had taken his research, his partner, and his old life. The skin along his jaw remained paler than the rest, a reminder of the raging fire and his failure. He maintained a meticulously groomed beard to cover the bulk of the marks. But the very edges still peaked from its margins to reach for his left eye and spread down his neck. His chest was a ruin.
Yet, it wasn’t the scars that kept Gale indoors, chained to the narrow perimeter of his small apartment. It was the silence that settled after Mystra’s absence. A vast, echoing quiet that turned the world outside into something sharp and fanged."Bookmarked by AnHiLo

Summary
“It’s ugly,” Astarion breathed, eyes cast down toward his hands, clasped tight and folded in his lap. “It’s so ugly.”
“Hush,” Gale chided softly. “Heat isn’t ugly, or pretty, or anything all that special. What heat is, is natural. This is what your body was built to do. It’s just biology. Not good, not bad, not ugly, not pretty. It’s just part of what it means to be alive, my love.”
Fingers met sweat-damp curls, gently pressing them back behind a pointed ear as the electricity ignited within his fingers; fucking pathetic, how the mere brush of fingertips went straight to Astarion’s cock. The fever was setting in faster than he hoped, slowly eating away at his rationality, but he refused to surrender to it entirely, not yet. He wanted to cling to himself, to this moment, to these quiet exchanges of adoration, to this sudden fleeing of all his fear. Gale would show him all the reverence of a deity, bowing down to the only god that he had ever cared to worship, and Astarion would show him the same.
“Besides,” Gale teased softly, drawing Astarion’s sweat-slicked forehead to his own, holding his gaze. “You’re always pretty.”

Summary
This is a slow burn omegaverse work. It will not fully follow the game.
"It had been a week on the road so far. In that time, Leon had managed to accrue quite the band of misfits. He whined and complained at every newcomer the ginger haired monk had welcomed with open arms but nothing seemed to dissuade him from adding to their merry band. “Our paths were meant to cross, Astarion. I do not believe we’re to turn away those who need our help.” He’d replied with a casual shrug. The rogue had grumbled about that until he’d seen the younger elf fight, something twinging with delight as the man’s hands had sent their enemies flying or just left them in a crumpled mess. Help, sure, but only if they asked nicely apparently."
(Astarion begins to realize just what being an omega means for him. Their group of alphas and omegas helps him navigate what it means to set boundaries, respect himself and others while also exploring what had been taken from him for so long)Series

Summary
“There are better ways to go about this if I wish to speak to someone anonymously,” Gale points out. Shadowheart shrugs, winking at him.
“Sure, but this is possibly the most satisfying one,” she says, and fine, Gale can’t argue with that. But still. Such conversations are surface level at best, and transactional at worst. Besides, it’s not in his nature to consume live internet pornography. He has no desire to share such an intimate act with a complete stranger.
“I would really rather see a therapist,” he says.
Fresh out of a messy divorce, disgraced academic Gale Dekarios finds himself biting off more than he can chew when a seemingly innocuous encounter with an enigmatic camboy, Star, leads him down a precarious path of lies, liberation and eventually—love.

Summary
The hand removed itself from his forehead. “Temperature is normal,” Gale announced, before using its fingers to gather some stray drool that had trailed down Astarion’s jaw. Before Astarion could register the pitiful jolt of arousal at the sudden skin contact or the sheer absurdity of what Gale was doing, Gale had stuck its fingers in its mouth.
“What the —”
“No new bacteria detected,” Gale went on, “Ruling out food poisoning.”
“Oh, Gods,” Astarion groaned. “And to think that these things are what’s sending our workforce into a tizzy. What next, 'droid? Are you about to give me a rectal examination too?”
“There is no need for one at the moment,” Gale said, confused. “Unless you are seeking prostate stimulation—”
“No!”
Amidst the softly thrumming melancholy of a dystopian, cyber-punk city, former corporate-rat Astarion Ancunín, who has long since lost the will to live, finds himself in possession of a G-413 or "Gale" - an amnesiac android who, strangely enough, enjoys living.

Summary
"The way the body reacts after birth is unavoidable. All his siblings experienced it: searching for a baby that was no longer there, raging and screaming at everyone and everything in the vicinity as if the child was hidden like a sick parlour game. They all knew what would happen after the first time, but every subsequent time might as well have been the first.
What would’ve happened if one of those children had survived?"
Or: what if the spawn having spawn was a requirement for the Black Mass? What if the mindflayers captured Astarion with one of those children in tow?
