    Summary

    Winter is the only thing that lives, a wild thing that haunts the forest. He stalks through the vast woodlands of the world, his bare feet crunching in harshly packed snow. His breaths are as cold as the wind, and no life vapor pours from his mouth. Tear tracks create frozen rivers down his wasted cheeks.

    'If you ever see one like him, fall to your knees,' the mortals warn their children. 'For you are in the presence of a god.'

    ✿༺༻✿✿༺༻✿✿༺༻✿✿༺༻✿✿༺༻✿

    Winter should fear Spring's coming, but not like this.

    Summary

    Gale had desperately clasped Astarion's wrist, preventing him from fully wrenching away. From fleeing. And for a brief moment Astarion was ready to lash out with all of the feral fury a starving spawn had to offer.

    The memory of that scorching touch was like a scar. The imprint of his lightly calloused, bare palm on Astarion's slender wrist was an invisible, white-hot brand upon his flesh. It was only Gale's wide, worried eyes and immediate surrender of Astarion's captured limb that saved him from being torn to ribbons by long-forgotten vampiric claws.

    He loathed it. Touching and being touched.

    People did not touch Astarion and survive.

    Astarion did not touch people destined to live.

    ---

    Astarion has a complicated relationship with physical touch. It brings up a wellspring of memories best left forgotten, and he doesn't even know if he could enjoy it anymore should he ever let anyone close enough to try... or five times Astarion sees Gale being held and has a lot of difficult feelings about it + the one time he does it himself and knows exactly how he feels about it.

    Summary

    *funky opening music* Last time on Sailor Star!

    Astarion is Sailor Star, the scion entrusted by the gods to stop evil and the Pretty Guardian of Baldur’s Gate! But being a guardian isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Between juggling fighting crime, his part time job, and scrounging up his next meal, all he wants is to finally lay the smack down on his hot professor boyfriend (in the sexy way) *and* on his rival hero, the Wizard of Waterdeep (in a non-sexy, much bloodier way). His greatest problem? Someone’s been infusing Devil monsters with magic, making them stronger! What’s Sailor Star to do?

    Summary

    After finally gaining his freedom, Astarion took Gale to visit his grave. Unfortunately, upon discovering that he did in fact have a surname, Gale decided that the occasion would be the perfect opportunity to hyperfixate over an accent mark.

    Summary

    He’d seen the man running by every morning.

    A very excessive, bombastic walk. Speed walking, it was called. Or some version of it that involved flailing limbs and tiny pink weights.

    Most often he could hear him before he could see him, that faint fsst fsst fsst signaling his impending arrival. He couldn’t remember when this trend had started, but it was like clockwork every single day.
