    Summary

    Wyll’s lantern swung closer. Tav could see the gleam of his boots through the underbrush. He was only steps away.

    “Do you think he’d be angry, pet?” Astarion mused. “If he found you like this? Would he be heartbroken? Or simply humiliated?”

    Of course he wouldn't let her answer. He covered her mouth with one hand, the other pressing her down.

    She clenched her jaw, wanting not to tremble beneath him. She should’ve been ashamed. But gods, it was hard to think when Astarion was like this—when he made her feel so alive.

    His mouth grazed the back of her shoulder, then up her neck. “Should I bite your scruff while I fuck you in front of your boyfriend? Like a wild beast?”

     

    Astarion thinks seducing her will save him. Only, he isn’t as untouchable as he pretends, and she isn’t as innocent as he thinks—she has secrets sharp enough to cut them both open.

    Summary

    It wasn’t a stirge or a deathfang, Gale choking down a gasp at the humanoid figure madly lapping and guzzling the bowl of blood. It was a vampire.

    When Gale becomes aware of a creature targeting the infestation of necrotic rats plaguing his store, his eager brain fixates on the question of what being would willingly consume such pests.

    His answer of a feral vampire spawn would only leaves him with an overabundance of academic questions and emotional complications.

    Summary

    It's been half a year since Astarion returned to Baldur's Gate with his rediscovered love, Jen, Tav in her next life. Nevermind the fact that he had to make a deal with Baba Yaga and travel to an entirely different plane of existence called "Texas" to find her and fall in love with each other all over again. That's history now! He has his little mud mephit back, and they're just as happy as they can be at their estate in Baldur's Gate.

    True, Jen may be struggling to learn magic. But he's certain she'll get there. She is an elf, after all. Or was. Anyway, bodies are changeable things, so he's certain her human form is temporary.

    Jen, however, is less certain and feels more and more like an alien as days turn to weeks turn to months. She's no closer to learning where she fits in this wildly different new world. Her chronic conditions aren't getting any better, she can't seem to pick up magic, she's trapped away from everything she used to love, and she can't help but feel like it's all going to destroy the happiness she and Astarion found together before she left her life behind to be a part of his.

    Summary

    This is the true story of six strangers, picked to live in a house, and have their lives taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite, and start getting real.

    Or : This is what happens when someone raised on nearly 20 years of MTV with a reality TV addiction gets an idea they just can't shake.

    Expect shenanigans, fluff, humor, drama, and probably some angst eventually because it's me and I'm incapable of writing anything without dipping into it.

    Relationship tags will update as they occur; this IS a reality show, after all!

    Summary

    “I was hoping you’d come back,” Gale said without thinking. He winced internally, all too aware of how desperate he sounded.

    “Were you, now?” Astarion tilted his head ever so slightly, amber eyes roaming every inch of his face.

    Not trusting his voice, Gale just nodded, and Astarion ducked his head closer, so close he could smell the faint citrusy scent of his skin.
    “And…what were you hoping for, darling?” His voice was nearly a whisper, lips close enough to his ear that he could feel the heat of his words.

    Gale swallowed hard before finally finding his voice. “I was wondering what you meant by next time,” he said, pulling back to look the other man in the eyes.

    ~~~***~~~***~~~

    (I lied it's no longer a one-shot I'm sorry!) Stand-alone piece of slow burn to filth to crash featuring Astarion and Gale in a modern AU. Enjoy.

    Summary

    Astarion should have died that night. In the story we know he did exactly that. Here, things went a little differently and he is very much alive.

    However, healing magic has its limitations, and the Astarion who survived is markedly different from the one that fell to the Gur's clubs.

    A month into recovery, he's still coming to terms with his loss of independence. Bedbound, partially mute, and being cared for by the same person who saved him in the first place: his mother. Apparently her adventuring days didn't fully end, even after decades of playing at being a proper Upper City wife.

    Even worse, soon his beloved father decides caring for Astarion is a waste of time and resources, and tries to convince his mother to send him to... somewhere, anywhere, else.

    It's amazing, what you start to notice when you're forced to stop and pay attention to people not named Astarion. So many aspects of his world and family, he now sees all too clearly. Out of the one eye that still works, anyway.

    Summary

    Gale stood a few steps away, looking about at the mouth of the alleyway. Checking for witnesses, the poor little prude. “I believe we’re as alone as can be expected here.” Just a whisper, more to himself than Astarion. Gale paced forward, eyes bright in his face; he stopped an arm length away. Astarion wondered if the man wanted a bit of play, a bit of an attempt at innocence, or if he wanted Astarion to make the first move, to throw himself at his brave, strong savior.

    While he pondered that, Gale spoke. “I must admit, for all my skill in the arcane, all my abilities in my field of magic, I have unfortunately always been somewhat lacking in social graces. For that reason, I’m at a loss on how to bring about this subject with any finesse.” Gale rubbed at his well trimmed beard.

    Luckily, Astarion was very well versed in these particular social graces. Starting in another weak purr, “Oh, my sweet-”

    “You’re a vampire spawn, correct?” Gale asked with his hands clutched behind his back.

    During a night of hunting in Baldur’s Gate, Astarion encounters an archmage with an offer that seems too good to be true.

    Summary

    Astarion wasn’t sulking, nor was he hiding from Gale. He was simply taking a relaxing moment to himself. A relaxing moment in the dark, pressed between boxes in what was presumably a storage room. 

    Sometimes it's easier to ignore an issue when you've got more imminent problems to deal with. Now that he's finally safe, Astarion finds it might be harder to ignore said issues.

    This is a direct continuation of 'Bat'tered by the Storm.

    Summary

    Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep is running out of time and ideas. The Netherese orb fused to his chest grows hungrier with each spell he casts.

    In a calculated risk, Gale travels to Baldur’s Gate to bargain with Cazador Szarr, the city’s ancient vampire lord, whose infernal pact with Mephistopheles may hold the key to unraveling the orb's power and freeing himself from his curse.

    Reluctantly, he returns to Waterdeep with an unexpected “companion”, Astarion, one of Cazador’s spawn. There ensues the slow realization that neither of them is entirely what they seem to be.

    Summary

    The world is saved, and everything is fine. Mostly. Just a few loose ends remain: a broken infernal engine, thousands of hungry spawn, a stalking eldritch horror, and the nightmare of emotional vulnerability. That’s probably all though.

    What could go wrong?

    This is a continuation of Rin and Astarion’s story from After the Fall.

    Summary

    It's 1980-something and the eclectic band Astarion and The Misfits has enjoyed moderate success so far. But as the band heads out on their first national tour, lead singer/songwriter Astarion is falling apart.

    His traumatic past is catching up to him and it's getting harder to hide his worsening cocaine habit from his band. The only time he feels something approaching okay is when he's writing music, or around his keyboardist and best friend, Gale.

    Will Astarion be able to pull himself together enough to deal with his painful past and out-of-control present before it's too late to save his future? Or is he doomed to repeat the cycle and end up as just another tragic rock and roll cautionary tale?

    ~~ Step right up! Come one, come all! We've got: excessive use of the f-word! Shameless (fair) use of songs recorded after the 1980s, from many genres, that have been shoehorned in to fit the story (or vice versa)! Belly-flopping face down into all kinds of trauma like it's Scrooge McDuck's money bin! More flashbacks than an acid trip! Angst and longing! Romance and smut! A side of Halstarion! A side of Karheart! A main course of Bloodweave! A Spotify playlist, updated for each chapter! ~~

    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.

    “I love Tavitha,” Gale went on. “More than anything. And I know she loves me.” A pause. “But I also know… she doesn’t sound the way she did with you.”

    Astarion blinked. Then, a smirk, crooked and knowing. “Ah. I see.”

    “You pleased her. In ways I haven’t. And I want to learn. I’m a scholar,” Gale said. “I’ve spent my life in pursuit of knowledge. Why should this be any different?”

    “You want me to teach you how to fuck your girlfriend,” Astarion said flatly.

    “To please her,” Gale corrected. “To understand her. If that means watching you two… then yes. Teach me.”

    Summary

    My hand shifts to his thigh as I lean close, my breath grazing his ear. “I heard once the ears are the most sensitive part of an elf’s body. Tell me, is that true?”

    I start to trail kisses along the edge of his ear.

    He shudders.

    His thigh tenses beneath my palm, and a low, involuntary breath escapes, caught between restraint and surrender.

    “Ohh… fuck,” he whispers, the word falling like a prayer. His fingers grip the loveseat, nails biting into velvet. “Whoever told you that,” he rasps, “deserves to be ruined entirely.”

    I pull back just enough to let him breathe, smirking at the sight of his lashes fluttering half-closed.

    “You’re playing a dangerous game, my sweet,” he murmurs, voice frayed at the edges. “One more kiss like that, and I may just forget we’re surrounded by wolves.”

    His crimson eyes burn into mine, hunger unveiled, unmasked. And then, with a voice like embers poured over wine:
    “Do it again.”
