    Summary

    “My dear,” he approaches, slowly, cautiously, but with purpose this time. “Could you remind me, which of us ended up picking more locks at the Counting House?”

    They look contemplative for a beat. “I can’t quite recall, why do you ask?”

    In a flash, Astarion pins his lover to a crumbling sewer wall, forearm pressing harshly into their throat, a dagger inches away from their eye. “Who are you?” he spits out.

    ___

    AKA: Tav gets kidnapped and replaced by a doppelganger and Astarion is not buying it. The rescue leads to him dealing with what it means to be a hero. Set late in Act 3.

    Summary

    He’s concerned. It’s just how Gale is. He loves her and their growing child, so he can’t help but be at least a little frantic at all times about her and the pregnancy.

    She knows. She knows he means well. She does…

    But he’s driving her insane.

    At Tav's insistence, Gale goes away on a trip to Candlekeep and begins to work through some pregnancy-related anxieties with the help of a certain… tool.

    Summary

    Astarion, making a whole meal of his trust issues, volunteers to beta-read Gale's in-progress historical chronicle of their adventures, intending to control his image and gather intelligence on his companions. Instead, their written exchanges through margin notes and editorial comments evolve into genuine intellectual discourse and unexpected intimacy.

    Reader beware: massive geeks perpetrating geekery until they finally manage to get it on. And then they are still geeks.

    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    “Do you come when you touch yourself?” he asked.
    “What?” Her world had either stopped spinning or rapidly accelerated; she wasn’t sure.
    “When you lie awake at night,” he purred, caressing clawed fingertips over the inside of her knee, “fucking yourself on your lovely fingers, do you climax then?”
    She nodded. Why lie? A hot pulse of need bloomed in her cunt. This afternoon had already taken several turns, and at this point, she was just along for the ride.

    A series of bad hookups has Tav feeling less like a hero and more like a born reject. She sneaks into Sorcerous Sundries to look for a cure. She finds it—in the tower's new proprietor.

    Summary

    He finally stopped across the bar top from her. “If you’re busy having a crisis, I can come back,” he offered, his curious amber eyes fixed on hers. “One hates to impose.”

    She snorted, looking up at him through the shock-white hair that had fallen loose from her bun during her sulk. “Does one?”

    “Oh,” he deadpanned, shaking his head, “most assuredly.”

    With Baldur's Gate rebuilt and her friends scattered to the winds, Tav decides to settle down as a tavern keeper and relax into a quiet retirement of serving drinks and spinning stories. Unfortunately, every single one of her new neighbors seems to think she's untrustworthy at best and terrifying at worst.

    Every one, that is, except Rolan.
