Summary
When their trip to Shadowfell to discover the Nightsong goes wrong and Mel is forced to kill a friend, she deals with the grief that it seems like she is alone in experiencing.
(inspired by me not being able to convince Shadowheart to not kill the Nightsong and having to kill Shadowheart.)
The major character death is in fact the MAIN focus here, so read at your own risk.

Summary
"He lingers for a moment, about to launch back into the crowd when he spies the most gorgeous ribbon. A rich cerulean blue, embroidered with a dark silver string for detailing. For the moment he stops and stares, Astarion can think of nothing else besides how the ribbon would look braided into his love’s hair. Blue stained hair, faded with the many washes they would now indulge in now that they had settled down. Settled down. Astarion smiles at where he finds himself; Buying pastries and slipping away with pretty ribbons for a lover."

Summary
“My pronouns?”
Ollie nods, picking at the strap of their bag that now rests on their shoulder.
“My pronouns are…” Now this isn’t something he’d encountered before. All of his existence Morpheus had been the Lord Shaper. There wasn’t a moment that he could not shape himself to be exactly as he wanted. There was not a moment until now.
A story or perhaps a compilation of stories about a retired Dream Lord, Lord Shaper, and the struggles of gender dysphoria.
OR-- Morpheus goes on a journey of gender discovery with an incredibly supportive boyfriend. Gender fuckery, pronoun experimentation, and trans joy all in one

Summary
“Look, Bob Bob,” he begins, falling back on the ol’ insult-turned-endearment, “I’m gonna be frank, since you won’t stop fucking around: I literally cannot imagine a future without you in it. So when you do shit that jeopardizes your health, I think I’m allowed to feel a certain way about it. —and ask me things like a normal person. You’re allowed to ask for things you want. You might actually get them.”
State-mandated or not, the fact that Flambae’s been attending therapy far longer than his bitch ass shows.

Robert smokes. Flambae bitches about it. They figure their shit out and celebrate their wins with donuts.
