Summary
"Astarion doesn't feel good. He doesn't feel fine or okay or anything so romantic. He is still a sleep-deprived slave, his arms sliced open and his every move prescribed by a monster masquerading as a man in oversized suits. But there is blood in his body, and the job ahead of him is preferable to his usual orders. He feels marginally better than miserable, and in this moment, that is enough."
--
Astarion is pulled from the Kennel because Cazador needs his new garments tailored. Astarion is a talented tailor, and he loves the art. He doesn't love doing it *for Cazador* or for his wretched siblings. But the quiet and rhythm of sewing is the safest place he knows.

Summary
Three commands has Astarion broken, and now the fourth with a rapier through his gut and crossbow to his skull. Centuries he's wanted to be free—well, here it is. Dirt under his nails and blood behind his fangs. He's free. Isn't he fucking satisfied?
Astarion has not been a person in two hundred years. His journey to become one does not start off well.

Summary
As he does this the prisoner starts forward again, cautious and slow, but Usopp doesn’t rush them. With a shaking hand they pick up the yellow pencil and draw a graceful 3. They point to Usopp and repeat his name, then tap the 3 and their own chest. “Sanji,” they say, and their tone is an odd mix of melancholy and sarcasm.
“Sanji,” Usopp echoes, and gives a thumbs-up.

Summary
Astarion doesn’t know, exactly, when the fight went completely tits up.
Later, he’ll remember it in flashes. Sounds, mostly. The many booms and crashes of magic, the twang of a crossbow, their darling bard’s voice reverberating straight down into his bones. He’ll remember a beautiful spray of blood from the Gur’s chest, the blackened reddish glow of Wyll’s magic, his own vision sharpening to a point as he rushed in for what should have been the final kill, a bright searing pain in his chest—
But that’s later.
Just now, he’s a bit preoccupied, as it were, with using every last ounce of his willpower to stay conscious.
(Or: The fight against Gandrel goes very badly, very quickly.)
