Summary
After weeks in the wilderness, the group has finally reached an inn, with a fireplace, a bed, and solid walls - things that Astarion is determined to take full advantage of, now that he and Tav are more comfortable together. Astarion is thrilled that his plan is coming along so nicely - it means they can enjoy each others company, indulge in a footrub while they build up to the main event, maybe even find a way to make Tav more vocal in what she wants.
But their increased bond also means that Tav is getting braver.... and she's starting to ask questions he has no answer to.
***
“Here,” she breathed, lifting her chin to expose her throat. “I want.... want your fangs inside me.”It was a ridiculous thing to say. He could tell from her face that she knew it as soon as the quiet words left her hesitant lips, and regretted it. If it was someone else, he'd have mocked them for it, raised his eyebrow and let a smug smile wash over his face. But she was trying, he thought fondly, and he knew it wasn't easy for her. So he pressed his lips against her neck, kissing as he worked his way to her ear.
“That's good,” he crooned, feeling her relax, ankles interlocking around his waist. “That's perfect, darling.”

Summary
When Astarion comes to in the glaring brightness of the midday sun, he thinks he's died for the second time. Or perhaps it's an illusion. A hallucination.
But no, it's none of that. The world has simply gone mad. The old rules are gone, new ones have been slapped on instead, and no one has bothered to explain anything to him.
Before Astarion has time to process any of this, he's thrown into adventure with a bunch of strangers – emphasis on strange. But it's all right. He'll survive. He always does, whatever it takes.

Summary
Centuries have passed since Astarion's ascension. Centuries of triumph and despair, of victory and defeat, of heady thrills and daring escapes. Through it all, I have kept him safe. Through it all, he has kept me at his side. His loyal right hand, who straddles the line between life and undeath; the one he can't compel. I am a unique individual, no matter how you slice it. Just not as unique as Tav.
Tav is, after all, the one that got away. The unrequited love of Astarion's life, just as he is the unrequited love of mine.
And now Tav is back, and Tav wants it all.

Trust Me Darling - A Quasit Named Shovel by ms_fahey

Summary
Still stuck in half-orc form to facilitate their sneaky journey through Moonrise, Astarion is injured in the fight with some defensive skeletons in the Apothecary's Cellar. While he and Tav sit together to recover in the cave, the others go ahead to search the study for anything that can be used to open Astarion's screaming book. But there is one more coffin, unopened, so Tav and Astarion decide to deal with whatever is inside themselves, just to prove that they can. But while they suspect its another skeleton, it turns out to be something far different.
***
Tav rolled her eyes, suddenly noticing something behind him.“Don’t leave that behind,” she said, pointing towards it so he turned to look at Wyll’s shovel. “He must have forgot it in the excitement.”
“Oh darling, let’s leave it,” he protested, walking mournfully towards it to pick it up. “Look darling, it’s dirty.”
“It’s a shovel, Astarion, what do you expect,” she said dryly. “Here, I’ll carry it.”
“Shovel?” said a third voice suddenly, making them both freeze. “Me Shovel?”

Summary
Temporarily trapped in a new form to avoid detection, Astarion and his companions have attempted to cut back through Moonhaven to reach the Risen Road. But when they're confronted by ogres, and Astarion intervenes to stop Tav saving their friends, unresolved tensions bubble to the surface.
***
“Darling,” he began, not sure where he was going but knowing he had to say something.“Don't ‘darling’ me,” she warned. “You can't just ‘darling’ your way out of everything.”
“But darling,” he protested, reaching out to take her hands in his to test her theory - but Tav yanked away from him, glaring with furious eyes.
“That works much better when you're beautiful, Astarion,” she snapped. “Trust me, when all that's gone, you're not nearly as tolerable.”
Astarion blinked, caught off guard as Tav froze, clearly realizing as the words left her mouth that she had gone too far.
“I - I -” she stammered, her face going pale beneath her freckles. “I didn't mean - that came out wrong.”
