    Summary

    “There is something wrong with her blood,” Astarion hisses. He doesn’t mean to make a scene, so he keeps it quiet. The only person he needs to convince is her. “I can smell it from here, I don’t know if it’s safe.”

    If he appeals to their safety, maybe it will be enough. Lae'zel had been angry at him before for starving himself, for not being the sharpest blade possible. The woman works a whetstone for hours a day, surely she won’t want him dulled by poisoned blood even if it would be at the expense of her own strength.

    It’s a long shot, and he knows it.

    Summary

    The first—a closed door, impenetrable. The kennel is a greedy beast, and it does not release that which is locked within it. Years could Astarion claw at the knob and never free himself, though little doubt he would try. He always tries. It is one of his more endearing characteristics.

    The second and third—simple sentences, laced through with the weight of commands.

    Thou shalt not see.

    Thou shalt not hear.

    Cazador visits Astarion on the seventh day of his punishment.

    Summary

    It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up flat in the dirt, hands tied behind his back, bleeding. His head aches.

    Wyll stands over him, uncharacteristically scared. "Astarion," he says, fast and frantic. "Are you back to yourself?"

    There are two puncture wounds on his neck.

    (It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up. The party says he attacked them. He does not remember this.)

    Summary

    All in all, perhaps not Wyll's cleverest moment. He just needed to find a pothole. A grate of some kind. Something that would get him back out into the open world, where someone might see him and help. It would be wonderful if his vision would stop going grey at the edges, and if his feet worked like how he told them to. He just needed…a little rest. A bit of a sit down, then he’d be right as rain. He slid down the wall, breathing through his nose.

    “I don't suppose you're going to be using any of that blood, are you?”

    When Astarion is saved from his master by a group of heroes, he thought his life was doomed to scavenging loneliness. But what if he had the chance to save one of those heroes right back?

    Summary

    ”Astarion, I don’t think this is the place,” Karlach snorts, her eyes wide, taking in the shop’s offerings with amusement and more than a little curiosity.

    It most definitely isn’t the place they’re looking for. Gods damn it. He was sure this was it. The mask on the sign seemed a clear indicator. And now that he thinks about it, he’s almost certain he’s heard people talk about a tailor on this street. But unless Figaro has changed careers and become a smut peddler, this is not Facemaker’s Boutique; it’s a sex shop.


    Astarion and Karlach find a sex shop. Imagine…

    Summary

    For a moment, Astarion feels pity. A deep sadness, for the poor, beautiful wretch, before disgust wells up from somewhere deep inside. Then anger. Loathing. This stupid thing. This despicable thing that allows itself to be used again and again. That never once fought back. Astarion suddenly hates him, wants to smash his face in so he never has to see it again.


    Astarion encounters himself in the Self-Same Trial of Shar's Gauntlet.

    Summary

    “I think, perhaps, I'm going to pierce them. Here,” Wyll pinches down by the lobe, “and here.” He pinches again, the sharp pricks of nails against the narrow curve almost at the very point of Astarion’s ears.

    Oh, that is the game tonight.

    Summary

    So here he is: a monster in the wilderness, a shadow crawling in the sun, trying desperately to be more than his nature. Than the terrified creature two centuries of torment shaped him into.

    (Or Astarion reclaims his personhood, one fraught, determined step at a time. And with a little help along the way.)

    Summary

    Astarion knows what he is: a used-up, dried-out, bitter-tongued spawn with hair like starlight, so beautiful that somehow men manage to overlook the rest of his flaws to their deaths. He knows that Wyll says he loves him. He knows that Wyll loves his hair.

    And he knows that if he cuts it off, the truth will come out.

    Summary

    There was a dead man on the midden heap; if not dead yet, soon.

    It wasn’t hard to guess how he’d ended up there - the man looked the part of a devil. Such was the fate of monsters in the hands of civilization.

    Walking in the black cold of the night, Wyll found a vampire in the road.

    In the road, buried up to his chest. Facing the east, where the sun would eventually roll up over the distant hill and set him alight.

    Wyll fixes it.

    Summary

    This is the second part of a story that begins ten years before the events of the game with Dark Urge and Astarion meeting at one of Cazador's parties. This continuation is set within the confines of the game's story and is more gap-fills and alternate scenes.

    “What do you know?” Dar asked.

    That was his voice. Not the voice of a tortured amnesiac. That was Dar on the sofa in the townhouse. A heavy voice. The promise of a threat. It was the voice that promised that it wouldn’t be one of the good nights. Dar’s moods were mercurial, and that voice promised danger.

    “I know enough.”

    “Explain it.”

    “No."

    A story in which Astarion has to contend with a Dark Urge character who he has substantial and unpleasant history with.

    Summary

    A version of history where Durge used to attend Cazador's parties.

    The spawn met his gaze with blazing eyes. Furious. Dar had expected a broken shred of a person. The snivelling humans offering up blood were pathetic and he was expecting something worse from the spawn. This wasn’t a shredded broken thing. There was hate in those eyes. Trapped and controlled but not truly broken. Dar held his gaze. The spawn’s lip curled, showing fangs but then he got that under control. Cazador was watching. The spawn hated Dar but he was too afraid of Cazador to risk anything more than that flickering hate in his eyes.
