Confused? So are these idiots!

Sloane Morales is coming up on the end of her 6th year in Pelican Town when two of her closest friends propose an idea that makes too much sense for her to refuse. She has no idea that a simple roommate agreement will lead to a mess of feelings and attraction, and she's certainly not prepared for them to feel the same.

Summary
After finding a hefty inheritance letter from your late grandpa, your bleak corporate life in the city comes to an end.
Now, you're tasked with learning how to farm, befriending your new neighbors, navigating a surprising quantity of love interests, discovering the existence of the arcane, and possibly having to complete a whole magical girl-esque transformation in order to save the valley.

NOTE: While FAWY is not on hiatus, updates will be very infrequent until further notice. For the past year or so (it's currently 12/28/24), I’ve been in terrible health and writing has been extremely hard. Long story short, I’m working on rewriting a lot of this fic to help myself get back into the swing of things ^.^”
As I update existing chapters, I’ll update this description, add a new note with the date on the chapter itself, and update the posting date! AND if you're new to FAWY, I strongly suggest reading no further than my edits!
Tysm for your patience and for all the support 💕

Summary
Brynn Bladetongue was trouble. Her smile was more impish than you’d expect for a drow, and she was a little too perceptive for Astarion’s liking. She let herself get dragged into other people’s messes, and she had more magic at her fingertips than even a talented bard should have.
Oh yes, Brynn Bladetongue was trouble: pretty and dangerous, as most pretty things are. Little did he know that Brynn’s particular brand of trouble would become more precious to him than he’d ever dreamed.
***************
In sum: a slow-burn expansion on the Astarion/Tav romance, from Astarion’s POV. This will cover the span of BG3, with rated E smut.

Summary
**Contains Act 3 Spoilers**
It was worse than two years on the run- he always had more of that wild coursin' through his veins than sense in his head. Stubborn. Impulsive.
Folks say there ain't no domesticatin' a fella who finds better company among monsters than man.
But something itched at the back of his mind- a peculiar fixation. It all stemmed from that meetin' of eyes. From that instinctual sizing of another up. Like knows like- and she ain't exactly what they say she is.
Who was the Builder, really? Who was that woman from beyond the train tracks?
Or: A slice of life retelling of Logan rejoining civilization and growing closer with the Builder
