Summary
These are not your normal faerie tales.
The heroine is not always breathtakingly beautiful, the prince is not always brave or noble. And the evil witches just might have stories of their own.
These are the stories that didn't make it into the dragonets books. They were cut out, held far from dragonets ears. Not for lack of happy endings (although there aren't many of those), but because perhaps they teach just a bit too much of the truth. These are stories woven with threads of darkness, the stories that are just a bit too close to reality for some.
You don't have to read them all, they don't connect in any way. They are just here for you to pick from, if you want something a bit different than ordinary tales.
You might not like these stories. They aren't for everyone.
But every story, no matter how strange, deserves a chance to be told.

Summary
The night before Easter break, I went with you to the clinic for your abortion, and we weren't even friends. It was the last time I saw you.
OR; Harrow Aborts That Thang.

Summary
The car whines when Astarion accelerates, a thumping under his feet and center console. The dashboard rattles, teeth in a skeleton, even the steering wheel keening like a death knell. Every time he brakes, something screams. He can't smell smoke, but he can feel heat pouring from the vents, sweating through his nightclothes. There's a dial from hot to cold—he spins it and feels nothing change.
When he presses its gas, the car goes forward. When he brakes, it stops.
He keeps driving.
Astarion escapes Cazador with the clothes on his back, a wad of stolen cash, and a car that's sat abandoned in a garage for thirty years.
There's a metaphor in that, perhaps.

Summary
"Not that you ever need a reason, Shadowheart," Wyll begins warmly.
Oh, no.
"But...it's been ten years. What brings you back to Baldur's Gate?"
Ten years since the thrice-damned tadpoles and she can still feel Lae'zel's smirk like a physical presence. Shadowheart sighs.
"If you must know," she says. "Someone has stolen a priceless artifact from the githyanki."

Summary
Author's Note: This one is strange, but it's also of the most beautiful things I've ever written. If you like my other stories you should probably give it a try.
It starts very dark. Basically what happened is I tried to write a hurt-no-comfort one shot about Astarion being dragged out of his year in the crypt, immediately thrown back into hunting while barely functional, being walked home by a concerned half-orc who could tell he wasn't all right, and then delivering that half-orc to Cazador Szarr.
I then felt so sad about the situation I had created I had to write 50K to make it better.
