    Summary

    Twelve years before the Absolute Plot. Twelve years before the Netherbrain. Twelve years before Orin ruins everything.

    Twelve years ago, the purest Bhaalspawn ever created killed a Vampire. In return, he gained the loyalty of that Vampire's spawn. Now Astarion is The Dark Urge's favorite plaything.

    Summary

    --- Sample ---
    “Move me as you need to, but that’s all your hands are allowed.” The adrenaline was flooding every nerve, racing through your body with the scream of danger that should’ve had you listening and running as far as you could go…but that other part of your primal mind was shutting down every logical thought that this giant could destroy you in a second, with the far more tempting thought that such destruction would be the hottest possible way to shake off your mortal coil.

    ---

    You had made a bet, and won exactly what you wanted - a contract that would put you a rank above Yurgir for a limited time. The Orthon had caught your eye, intrigued you, and though you weren't a cat you still had some grave concerns about the outcome of curiosity...but the end of that phrase, as many forget, is that "curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back".

    There's only one way to find out - step into the hells for your hard-won night with Yurgir and see if you return alive.

    Summary

    She will burn the nest of poison vipers that calls itself House Baenre to the ground and their monstrous goddess with them. She will take control, reshape their world in her image, and she will smile as her mother rots in a sunlit flowery grave.

    And then, once their conquest is complete, she will return to Waterdeep with her wizard and lay in this bed with him (annoyed, because he didn’t close the curtains properly and the sun is creeping in through the crack). It will be so, it will be good.

    Summary

    After the Nautiloid crashed, Astarion had tried to enjoy his so-called freedom, but the constant fear of being ambushed and dragged back to Baldur's Gate prevented him from enjoying anything. Having found no allies, no solutions, hardly any information about the tadpole in his head other than that it will turn him into a monster, Astarion ends up running home anyway.

    He'd rather die than go back to Cazador and he means that, but the looming threat of another transformation terrifies him more than anything at the moment, and there are too many talented freaks in Baldur's Gate for nobody to have a solution for him. One talented freak in particular catches Astarion's eye.

    Summary

    “Make it hurt, then. Kiss me like you want to kill me.”

    “I can do that.”

    Two broken stars in a decaying orbit, passing closer and closer together until the inevitable, devastating collision.

    Or, Tav is fucked up and down bad for Astarion, who doesn't quite see the appeal (but he's getting there). Sexual frustration, sloppy handjobs, a heavy dose of masochism, and way too many failed Insight checks ahead. Tav falls first, Astarion falls harder (eventually).

    Or, a tragic-but-hopeful romance told through a series of incredibly ill-advised sexual encounters.

    If you want to read a story where Astarion is sweet from the start and Tav is here to fix him, this isn't the one. If you want to read about two terribly broken men spending a good long while making each other worse before they make each other better, this might be for you. If you thought the in-game romance was a little too easy and it should have been ten times more painful and difficult to convince Astarion he's worthy of love, this is definitely for you.

    Set during the canonical events of Baldur's Gate 3.

    Summary

    The love of Astarion's life has disappeared to go live in the daylight with the druids, and Astarion is stuck in the darkness once more, yearning for sunlight with every fibre of his being, while bitterly reflecting on all the things that were denied to him in the end - love, sunlight, the option to kill thousands of people and become a near-god...

    Raphael knows Astarion's desperate, and comes to him with not one, but two horrid contract offers that Astarion loathes and dreads in equal measure - but the prize at the end of both are too good to turn down, and he's become too cynical to care about how much of a good idea it is to give his body to a devil for a month or two, because really, comparatively, how bad could it be?

    Summary

    "Lift your head and look at me, Astarion. I need to see your eyes."

    Astarion lifts his head and finds Halsin on the ground in front of him, tears on his broad face.

    "Is this what you want? For me to hurt you? Like he did? Tell me the truth."

    Astarion wishes he had compulsion. That made telling the truth so much easier.

    "No, I hate it." He says, shakily because he doesn't want Halsin to cry over him and the truth is he hates this. He hates it with every fiber of his being.

    But there's something more important than want. Astarion already hated Cazador but he will curse him to the Hells for eternity for this truth Cazador bred in him.

    "But gods help me..." Astarion sobs because they haven't. They would never ever help Astarion Ancunín. "I need it."

    Over the centuries of unrelenting abuse, Cazador changed something in Astarion, irrevocably. But Astarion will not allow any part of himself to belong to Cazador. Not even the parts Cazador created. Not anymore.

    Summary

    When Astarion awakens in the aftermath of the Nautiloid crash, it is not to a friendly face but the press of goblin steel against his cheek.

    Now a captive of the Absolute, he is left starving and huddled in the corner, waiting for the beast that shares his cell to finally strike.

    Bears, after all, are not known to be the most gracious killers.

    Summary

    If she'd been alone, he might have pressed her for information then left her remains on the beach and moved on. But she had a spiky-looking Gith with her and a wizard with terrible hair so Astarion opted for caution and belated politeness. "Marichar." She said, massaging a spot over her breastbone where he'd possibly elbowed her.
    And thus had begun - whatever this was. His membership among this gaggle of motley idiots.

    Summary

    A deal with an incubus has resulted in some unforeseen consequences. He shapeshifts into your body for sinful misdeeds nightly, and you feel everything he does from planes away. You have little choice but to break back into the House of Hope to confront him.

    This time, Raphael will be there to greet you.

    ***
    Preview:

    “Oh, but what’s his is mine.” Raphael took the copy of you standing before him and ran a clawed finger up its spine. You shivered, feeling his touch ghost over your own nerves. “And I have been thoroughly enjoying this little piece of property.”

    It’d been him. His hands were the ones that’d been running over your skin, groping at your curves, entering you. Raphael had been fucking a false version of your body, and you’d felt every second of it.

    Summary

    “What are you doing here?” You ask Raphael who seems to enjoy your discomfort greatly.

    “I was just passing by,” he says, taking a few steps closer until he is towering over you, grinning diabolically. “When I heard my favourite adventurer in such trouble and came to offer my help.”

    “And what help would that be?” You try to mask the need in your voice with contempt. Raphael kneels down and leans over you, trapping you against the mattress. The smell of musk, cherries and sulphur envelopes you, and you suppress a moan as his clothed body presses against your nakedness, the thin blanket the only thing that separates you. You can feel his hot breath on your neck as he whispers in your ear.

    “Why don’t I show you,” his lips just inches away from your ear. “All you have to do is submit.”

     

    Tav experiences some unexpected side effects from eating the succubus-charmed spider meat, and Raphael comes to offer his help.

    Summary

    If the desperation in his eyes and the heartbreak on his face hadn’t already been enough to break you, the tremble in his voice would have done it. And even without all that, how could you ever say no to this man? He who stood beside you as you discovered your lost self. He who remained beside you when you learned your cursed history. He who bound the knots of your restraints and stroked your hair through the night, even as you writhed and fought to end his life. He helped you gain your freedom from the damnation of your birth. How could you possibly deny helping him with his own freedom?

    But, says a voice in your head, seven thousand souls.

    ----

    A story in which we discover just how damned an ascended vampire can be, and just how far you will go to save the elf you loved.
