    Summary

    Astarion does not chase after his bedmates. Unless of course, said bedmate is a gorgeous wood-elf with gentle hands and kind eyes. And if said wood-elf is covered head to toe in the blood of their enemies, even better.

    Summary

    Astarion is so used to being used by everyone around him he can't figure out this new member of their merry band of weirdos wants. The druid is helpful, almost too helpful, but doesn't seem to just want to sleep with him. He isn't used to having someone stir up real feelings in him and he can't decide if he likes it.

    All he is sure of is that he has become addicted to the taste of the man's blood, and is becoming addicted to the man himself.

    ----

    “Good night Astarion.” The man rumbled. “May your trance be peaceful.”

    Astarion blinked, then blinked again. That was impossible. No one turned him down, well except Tav but Tav was special. He could smell the alpha’s arousal. The man wanted him. But was already reaching for the tent flap to eject Astarion like a drunken mistake.

    He blamed what he did next on his post feeding drunkenness and his desperate need to find familiar ground with the man.

    He darted forward and kissed the man. Halsin froze, his hand halfway to the tent flap. Astarion had managed to surprise him, he had reasserted dominance.

    He pulled away.

    “Goodnight, lover.” He drawled.

    The flush on Halsin’s cheeks made the whole strange encounter worth it.

    Summary

    Astarion was cold.

    It wasn’t just a feeling, he lacked blood flow. It was a fact that he was always cold. He took joy in brushing up against an unsuspecting neck and watching the owner flinch in surprise. While Wyll and Tav had hilarious reactions, Gale was his favorite. And it wasn’t because they now shared a bed amongst other things.

    Well, it mostly wasn’t because they were sleeping together. Astarion was a shit stirrer. And Gale’s shit was so easily stirred.

    Summary

    So after playing both their origins, I figured these two would fit very well together. I wanted to really delve into Astarion's trauma, his lack of recognising his own boundaries and how to navigate them, and how the world's softest wizard might react to helping him through this trauma. In short, Astarion learns that saying no is okay, and that consent can be retracted, because what he wants it actually important. I just thought he deserved some softness. <3

    I imagined this set after a romance that's a combination of both their routes; a hook up at the party, a love confession from Gale under the stars followed by a magical trip under the weave, and now they're navigating this new relationship together.

    Summary

    After they arrive in Baldur's Gate and Gale has another particularly unpleasant conversation with Mystra, he just wants to go out, have fun and get drunk enough to forget about it all for a night. And who better to ask for company than local hedonist and complete mess of a man, Astarion?

     

    Inspired by that one line of banter where Astarion says that he pictured his return to Baldur's Gate to include days of hedonistic debauchery and Gale says that it sounds like a recipe for disaster but he is starting to enjoy the taste of chaos.
