Summary
Astarion saw a pale elf standing before him. He was tall, gaunt, fingers straining into claws. His body was contorted, hunched and shivering. His eyes — red, blood red — looked haggard and desperate, ringed with dark purple shadow. His pupils shook with an untamed frenzy.
Astarion recognized that expression with an innate clarity, had seen it worn by his siblings countless times before.
I have a mole on my cheek, he thought, dazed, before razor-sharp fangs tore into the flesh of his neck and ripped — warm. Bursting with blood.

Wyll and Astarion switch bodies. Wyll immediately loses control and bites Astarion. Astarion takes advantage of the aftermath to guilt trip him for far too long.

Summary
At the end of it all, outside the Steel Watch foundry, when they stood before each other for the final time, the hardest part for Barcus was not the physical cleaving of himself from Wulbren, as he was already so used to being pushed away. It was not that Wulbren would not see reason, or even that when passion finally flared in his eyes as he looked at Barcus, it was clear, virulent hatred.
No, the hardest part of all was turning away, only to be left with the simple fact of his loneliness. Without Wulbren, who was Barcus, after all? What life was left for him to live?
He did not know.
***
Nearly a year out from the fall of the Absolute, Barcus Wroot finds he has the strength in him for one more go at love, after all.

Summary
Gale felt himself relax. For the last few days, he’d been concerned that Halsin might not like an idea they’d come up with, or that it didn’t quite align with his vision. Gale realized then Halsin didn’t have a vision.
He trusted Gale.
Which — historically, an objectively stupid thing to do.
or: instead of blackstaff, gale travels to reithwin to build a school as halsin oversees the village's recovery. in the years that come, a lot of things change — most notably his relationship with halsin.

Summary
When Astarion awakens in the aftermath of the Nautiloid crash, it is not to a friendly face but the press of goblin steel against his cheek.
Now a captive of the Absolute, he is left starving and huddled in the corner, waiting for the beast that shares his cell to finally strike.
Bears, after all, are not known to be the most gracious killers.
