    Summary

    This series is based on my double-rogue playthrough. Tav is an assassin rogue, chaotic neutral, chooses mostly good options but a ton of options just for the laughs or the money. Astarion remains unascended. Everyone shows up sooner or later, though main group includes Karlach and Shadowheart.

    Written gender-neutral and from second-person so that you can insert your Tav to be rogue!Tav :)

    Ordered chronologically, not written chronologically because I just write whatever comes to mind tbh.

    Summary

    Astarion Ancunín, 229 - 268 DR, was someone long gone. Along with his existence, went every trace of the life that once dwelled within him.

    He couldn't quite place his own family, his old friends, his eye color, his own face... Admist two centuries of torment, it grew to be an all too distant memory. That Astarion may as well have never been, for all he could recall was his own cruel death.

    But when given an opportunity to face the life he had prior to Cazador, will Astarion run from the past, or will he embrace it?

    (WILL BE GOING BACK SHORTLY TO FIX OLD TYPOS AND MAKE SLIGHT EDITS. STILL ENTIRELY READABLE BEFORE EDITS ARE COMPLETED!)

    Summary

    Straining tears leak from his eyes.

    “Oh, love.” A wet hand on Tav’s cheek, brushing away a tear but only bloodying him more. The coolness is soothing, still. His eyes shutter closed. “No, no. Tav, look at me. Stay with me. Tav, please. I...”

    Blearily, Tav wills himself to look. One last time.

    No words can describe the look in those wide eyes, his face a tangle of dark lines. Half of his perfect white hair is caked in blood.

    Perfectly imperfect, his Astarion, and Tav—he must be a wreck, coated red and black except for his eyes, dimming.

    Again, Astarion: “Please. Stay with me.”

    ***

    Two kindred spirits, a traumatized, chaotic ex-courtesan bard and a rogue vampire, get tadpoled and make it everyone else's problem.

    Astarion x trans m!Tav. Loosely follows the game plot.

    Summary

    Based on this post I made earlier that got way more attention than I expected:

    "Astarion sneakily getting a peek of Tav's sketchbook to see multiple drawings of the same guy and he's like 'ooooh someone has a crush 😏' and then Tav just kinda has to sit there like 'haha yeah sure do 😳'

    This is just such a funny concept to me lmao

    He takes a look at the drawings and is like '.... is he a vampire too...?' Everyone else is just trying not to fuckin burst out laughing"

    Summary

    Series of one shots, exploring Astarion's mindset through his romance with GN Tav (gender and race undefined to the best of my ability).

    "What was illogical, to him, was that Tav permitted it. Letting the vampire hold them tight, pinned with their back to his chest while he fed. Perhaps they had a bizarre vampire fetish - it certainly wouldn’t be the first time he’d encountered such. There was a soft trembling to their skin as he fed, barely parted lips in the dying firelight while the others slept.

    But the few nights Astarion declined in a huff, they smiled and said they were glad he wasn’t hungry. A puzzling mystery that irked at him, staying on his mind in the hours between fights."

    Summary

    “I know, I know. I’m beautiful and intelligent and dashing. And dead. The only reason why my hand’s warm is because you’re holding it.”
    In reply, Mara raised Astarion’s hand to their lips and exhaled, warm breath brushing over the back of his hand. “I can keep you warm.”
    “You shouldn’t have to. Shouldn’t have to compensate for my – condition.”
    “I am doing no such thing.”

    Giddy from a successful hunt, Astarion briefly forgets to wear the perfume he uses to conceal the scent of undeath. His lover doesn’t mind. Astarion does.

    He scoffed. "My dear, I can be stubborn at the best of times, but this is ridiculous! You're barely staying upright as it is."

    "I'm fine-"

    "No, you're not," he sharply cuts you off. He grabs your arm and pulls you to a stop, holding you there with enough force that you wouldn't slip out and keep going. You refuse to look at him even now.

    Tav is struggling with severe knee pain but keeps pushing on because they don't want to seem weak in front of their companions

    Summary

    “Astarion?”

    The shout travels down the building, and from one of the rooms pops out the vampire spawn. He seemed confused why you’d be calling him of all people. But the confusion is quickly masked with suave confidence as he sauntered down the hall to you. “Yes, dear?”

    You smile sweetly at him. “I found a locked chest. Could you help me open it? Please?”

    He smirks and taps a finger under your chin, getting you to tilt your head upward with just one motion. “Since you asked so nicely.”

    Summary

    “Back up, quickly!” Astarion snapped his book shut and jumped to his feet. Looking up he wasn’t sure what was happening. Gale had his staff ready with Shadowheart reaching for her discarded shield, all while Balro was standing, staring down a twisting crackling portal that had opened out on the beach near camp.

    The gang is spending a typical night at camp when a portal opens dumping a mysterious half-elf woman in their lap. None of them know her, yet she knows all of them.

    Summary

    Astarion wakes up with his hand glowing an eerie green and a relentless tadpole squirming in his mind with no idea where he is. He's thrust into a heroic quest to save Thedas, but his path is filled with peril. He not only battles external threats but also grapples with his unrelenting thirst for blood. Whispers and speculations swirl around him, labeling him as a possible demon from the Fade or a runaway slave from Tevinter. Regardless, he's known as the infamous Herald of Andraste, a figure whose mere presence sparks chaos, uncertainty, and awe.

    Trouble is bound to ensue with a vampire at the helm of the Inquisition.

    Summary

    “Star?”

    Astarion’s mouth clicked shut, silvery fangs vanishing behind pursed lips as his widened eyes shot somewhere above Lilith’s head. She turned toward the spectacle, and found the same older elven couple they had since passed. The woman was standing now, hands so tightly wound in the fabric of her blouse that they’d turned stark white. The man was no calmer, fingers gripping his knees and eyes watching the young couple as though they were made of smoke.

    “Star, is that you?”

     

    (After these empty centuries, Astarion comes face to face with a family he cannot recall)

    Summary

    He didn’t have much of a frame of reference to compare Casmir to, of course, not when his parade of lovers were excluded to nights that ended in their deaths. But what he has with Casmir is—different. Wholly unique in its own right. Astarion cares about them more than he ever has for another person before, and the thought is still just a little terrifying.

    And even if Astarion still doesn’t quite understand it, it was obvious that Casmir cared about him too.

    So there he laid with a new problem—intimacy. Sex. Fucking. Whatever you wished to bloody call it.

     

    (Or, Astarion realizes that he doesn’t want sex.)

    Summary

    Astarion moves his legs just slightly to press against Casmir’s broad shoulder, a teasing point of contact. The tiefling doesn’t shift away.

    But his hands still haven’t moved to tend to Astarion’s wound. “Can I touch you?”

    Astarion stares at them for a few moments, meeting that burning gaze, fanned by thick lashes. People don’t often ask him that—they just do. It didn’t matter whether he wanted them to or not, only that he was a pretty thing they wanted to get their hands on.

    He shakes his head before he can fade away into bad memories, blinking several times. He smirks instead, slipping into flirtation easily, eyes lidded and something like revulsion at himself bubbling in his gut, “As much as you’d like, my dear.”

     

    (Or, Astarion has had his consent revoked for over two centuries. Then he meets Casmir.)

    Summary

    “What?” Astarion seems nearly speechless, his silver tongue gone heavy in his mouth as he blinks, coming damn close to outright stuttering, “I—I mean, surely you—I’ve seen how you look at me!” He huffs, looking frustrated and confused and completely thrown off.

    It’s almost endearing, to see him grow so flustered, his suave persona melting through his shock. You can’t help but smile, “I’m just not really interested in sex. That’s all.” You shrug, and Astarion looks at you as if that tadpole in your head has finally started to transform you.

     

    (Or, you don’t want sex. Astarion doesn’t know what to make of that.)
