   Summary

   You know you’re falling for Astarion but the man’s got two hundred years of trauma to process and you’re wise enough not to jump straight into bed with him, no matter how much you’d like to. Instead, you let him have his fits of fury and fleeting moments of kindness in the hopes that one day he learns what it means to love freely.

   (AKA the messy tav/astarion slowburn that no one asked for)
