    Summary

    Morvran Voorhis, first-ranked prince of Nilfgaard, has been sent to Kaer Morhen on a diplomatic mission. His tasks are twofold: first, negotiate a nonaggression treaty between the wild barbarian Warlord of the North and the Nilfgaardian Empire. And second, ingratiate himself with the mysterious Warlord’s daughter and heir apparent, Princess Cirilla.

    Sir Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach, a Vicovaran knight, has been assigned to protect young Prince Voorhis on this mission. Prince Voorhis may be the best of a bad lot, but Cahir’s still not looking forward to the threats or the temperature of a winter in the distant North.

    They both know their mission is a dangerous one. But they don’t know where the true danger lies…and while they know how to navigate Nilfgaard’s treacherous court, they are not prepared for Kaer Morhen. This is a mission they might not survive…and if they do, they might be changed beyond all recognition.

    Summary

    “I will not have you on a battlefield.  But I acknowledge you cannot spend all of your time aboard the Brave meditating and doing your classwork.  This excursion is age-appropriate and, ideally, will be enjoyable.”

    “For me,” Cal says.  Jaro raises a brow ridge at him and, ever so slightly, Cal grins.  “I can’t picture you at a carnival.”

    “Hm,” is all Jaro has to say in reply.  It will soon be reality no matter what.  He does not tell his Padawan he has a pair of earplugs tucked in his pocket.

     

    (Cal is going stir-crazy on the Albedo Brave. His master has a fit of temporary insanity. They both visit a carnival.)

    Summary

    "There's no point in killing Superboy," Match says reasonably. "It's not like you'd care if he died."

    "The Agenda thinks I wouldn't care if Superboy died?" Superman asks incredulously, just staring at him. "Why, because he's a clone?"

    "Because I reported back my interactions with you when I was pretending to be him," Match corrects, puzzled by the vehemence of the response. "And also the lack thereof."

    "What?" Superman says, still just staring.

    Summary

    Jason’s mind was reeling. “Someone can see us?”

    He’d tried everything he could think of to get Bruce and Alfred’s attention since he became a ghost. But even physically floating through their bodies hadn’t elicited a response.

    She laughed. “Crazy, ain’t it? I don’t know if he’s a meta or what, but all the ghosts are talking about him.”

    If there was someone out there who could see ghosts… then maybe…

    Jason had to find him. “Who is he?”

    “He’s known by many names… Veil Walker… Reaper… Half-Pint.”

    Jason sputtered. “Half-Pint??”

    “That’s the wildest shit. It’s a kid. Like a middle schooler.” Delilah threw out one of her hands. “And he’s out here wandering Gotham every night and chatting up the dead.”

    Jason could only stare at her. Processing. A kid who could see ghosts... What was this? The Sixth Sense: Gotham edition??

    ———

    Jason was murdered by the Joker. Tim can see the dead. They find each other.

    Summary

    The first time it happened, well, to say it was “alarming” would be a pretty significant understatement. But even then, it was a lot more fun than their normal causes for alarm.

    The second time around it was still a hot mess, but a hot mess that everyone came out of more-or-less psychologically intact!

    Now they’re a year and change into this nonsense. It’s time for round five, and they’re ready. A suitable location had been secured. Provisions were gathered. No apocalypses were on any horizons. All participants were bullet-wound free!

    This time, it was going to go off without a hitch. No interruptions, no existential crises, no debilitating egg bound cramps. Just smooth, sexy egg-laying into a healthy, God-fearing man-flower.

    Summary

    Within the heart of Waterdeep, the legend of the Undermountain and its many dangers looms larger than life. Adventurers come for miles to partake in the garish ritual of lowering themselves into the dungeon below to see what riches they can find. What monsters they can best.

    It’s hardly an unfamiliar setting for Astarion. The overabundance of cocksure heroes makes it a prime location to find marks to lure back to Cazador. He watches the newest adventuring party disappear into the well. Out of the inn. Out of Waterdeep.

    A vampire spawn would hardly be missed among that crowd, no?

    Summary

    Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.

    Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”

    “None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

    Summary

    Gale counterspelled half the fireballs with ease, immense power flicking from his fingertips as he strode confident across the ring. And he was…beautiful, in a very different way than Astarion was used to seeing him. Not the composed academic. Not the bumbling lecturer, or the overinflated pedant, this, this was…imposing, powerful, self-assured in a wonderfully dangerous sort of way. His hands moving with such confidence, his eyes dark, his earring glinting in the early morning light.

    Gale is eager to see the powers Astarion gained from reading the Necromancy of Thay. They prove surprising in more than one way.

    Summary

    “I appreciate your concern, if you can call it that. But,” Gale grimaces as he peeks an ankle through the slit in the robe. One of the slits. Because there are two, one for each leg, each high enough to almost reach the hem of his briefs. “I’m a bit… exposed, don’t you think?”

    Astarion tips his head, then simply reaches out to pull the fabric wider. Gale recoils on instinct, which of course just leads to the whole of his thigh being bared instead. “Well, this is an easy fix. I’ve got just the thing.”

    Summary

    Astarion feels like a starving fox released into a pen of chickens.

    His lean fingers pick at his cravat, easing out invisible wrinkles, his tongue tracing along his own fangs. His eyes dart over the street, his head full of new scents and sounds, pounding at the back of his skull. He can taste the pulses of the people that pass him by, can smell the blood that rushes through their veins, intoxicating in its temptation.

    He feels like a ravenous animal, a stalking predator just barely blending in amongst a sea of prey. But whoever he finds, Cazador had instructed for them to still be breathing by the time Astarion brings them back. He can’t rip the throat from the first thing he sees, no matter how much he finds himself aching to. There’s an impossible emptiness inside of him now, a growing abyss, and he finds himself wanting.

     

    (Or, Astarion and the prince who swept him off his feet long after he had given up on happy endings.)

    “How exactly does one bed a goddess?”

    Summary

    “Ah,” Gale startled, “Forgive me. I may have had a little too much to drink, I’m afraid.”

    The stranger chuckled, and the sound slid like silk down Gale’s spine.

    “What’s the occasion, may I ask?”

    “The worst day of my life,” Gale replied, louder than he meant to. He raised his glass in a mock toast and tossed the last of the bourbon back.

    Professor Gale Dakarios loses his research, his magic, and his lover Mystra all at once and only has himself to blame. When he goes to drown his sorrows, he meets a pale stranger with mysteries of his own.
