Summary
The last thing a high half-elf paladin expected to do was befriend a vampire spawn, let alone find herself falling for him. And yet over days and hostilities, she senses something deeper beyond his casual flirting and feels herself reciprocating, much to the disquiet of some of their fellow adventurers.
Whether these are adventures told at the beginning of their journey, many years past, or alternative takes they will be present here for all to see

Summary
He tilts his chin up, something almost like pride in his expression. The light catches on the crook of his neck, in the shadows of his white hair.
A bite mark.
Red eyes and pale skin. Claws. Fangs.It all makes sense now.
He's a shapeshifter, too!
And he has no idea elves aren't supposed to look like vampires!Oh, that's adorable. I should help him.
This is the story of a shapeshifter who falls in love with a vampire, and how the unlikely duo overcome insurmountable odds to find a cure for ceremorphosis, then vampirism. A classic fairytale, really, if you ignore all the ways in which it isn't.
So sit back, relax, keep your hands and fangs inside the car at all times, and enjoy the show! AWOOOOO!
Updates every other Tuesday!

Summary
Supplemental and/or rewritten Astarion and Dark Urge (Bianca) scenes that I wish existed because I love them and their fucked up, parallel journey to recovery and self-discovery. Fic starts in Act 1 with the Alfira debacle.
He raises an eyebrow. “Are you afraid of me?” He’s not sure why, but the thought stings. He just helped her hide a body. If anyone should be wary, it should be him.
“No.” A blush spreads across Bianca’s face, neck, and chest. “This just feels…” she shrugs and gestures up to his shirtless chest, her shirtless chest, and then in a wide circle between them, “intimate. We had more clothes last time.”
Astarion smirks. This is familiar territory. “Come now,” he coos, “With everything we’ve shared, there’s no need to be shy.”
Featuring: angst, saucy vampire bites, violence, crimes, intrusive thoughts, healing, revenge, and more.
***
PS: Bianca is an anxious mess. She is appropriately confused, nervous, and concerned about her missing memory and desire to murder.
