Summary
He'd made his way through the entirety of the shop’s front, he noted after a bit, glancing to the door Arabella had taken off through as he made his way to scan the back room—when he felt an arm encircle him across his chest, and a knife pressed against the soft underside of his throat.
“Bit slow there, dear brother; haven't you gotten lazy?"

Summary
She waits for him to laugh.
To say he’s joking, and bark out one of his laughs Gale does when he thinks he’s said something exceptionally funny. To wave a hand at her good-naturedly, and then say what he actually wanted to talk to her about.
But he doesn’t—doesn’t do any of that. Doesn’t even throw her a wink to show he’s kidding; and what he’d said begins to settle more into her... But surely he didn’t mean it.
…Did he?
“You want me to… go to Blackstaff..?”

Summary
He'd done it.
Actually done it.
Taken off after the Crown, and then had the gall to come back afterwards: adorned in divinity, apathy, and silver, with a heavy hand of self-importance.
Silver.
Second place. Second best.
Like he'd made Astarion, after the Crown.

Summary
The first thing he notices is that they’ve switched during the night. Gale is pressed against his back, shirtless and heavy with sleep, with an arm slung over Astarion’s side. He always slept so hot—like a human furnace.
The second thing he notices is the pressure—it's grounding. Comforting, as it’s grown to always be, every time. The temptation to slip his eyes shut and stay under the weighted warmth that is Gale is strong, and he debates moving at all, lest he wake the other.
The third thing he notices is that Gale is hard against him, pressed against the swell of where his thigh meets his ass.
He’s not uncomfortable; it's Gale. And where he’d told himself that over and over again at the start, it actually does bring him nothing but peace now. Maybe because it isn’t so forced anymore, and is now the actual passing thought he’d wanted it to be then.
Astarion closes his eyes, and thinks.
It’s not the first time he’s woken to this scenario—far from it, at this point. Having Gale wrapped around him half-naked just makes it so tempting.
To try.

Summary
He'd never—ever—allowed himself to even daydream of something like this.
Dancing?
In the middle of Waterdeep? While he melted in his love's arms? Being crooned to?
It's almost too domestic—too sweet. A setting that would have made him uncomfortable even just a year ago, when he'd first woken up on that beach and felt the sun on his face.
It felt like a lifetime ago. Maybe a different one entirely, he thinks, as Gale sweeps his hand slow and heavy down over his spine, hums pleasantly in his ear.

Summary
“I happen to know an excellent cure for headaches.” He says, instead of acknowledging that yes, they do both need to leave the house for work within the next thirty minutes at most and Gale hasn’t even finished his coffee.
“Oh? And what could that possibly be?”
Astarion peppers kisses up both of Gale’s thighs, humming approvingly as Gale parts them for him to crawl closer, and then looks up once more. “Why, a simply stunning orgasm, of course.”
-
A sleepy morning before work, Astarion finds himself distracted by how attractive he finds Gale.
