    Summary

    "The best way I can summarize the basics is this: the rune you used is like a bridge. It connected the two of you in every way, but there has to be a point A and a point B for a bridge, correct?” Heimerdinger points at Jayce, “He’s point A.” And I’m point B?

    --or--

    Jayce and Viktor's sacrifice creates an arcane bond between them.

    Summary

    Jayce, however emotionally-blind, is very keen on sticking by Viktor, even with his millions of objections. Months have gone by since he found out that Viktor had been using the HexCore. And with that discovery, he realizes the item in question has been acting, well, strange. And so, it seems, is Viktor.

    Summary

    Just because Joe is dead doesn’t mean Ryan can let him go. It doesn’t mean he loves him any less, nor does it mean Joe is truly gone, though the grief is chewing at Ryan’s brain like an angry rat. As his madness spirals out of control, Ryan falls down the rabbit hole on a crash course toward certain death. Joe is right there with him though, riding shotgun with the promise to never let him go. Along the way, there are a few dead bodies and a couple of bone-shaking surprises. And in the end, Ryan might just get exactly what he wants.

    Summary

    MAJOR SPOILERS FOR BG3. SPECIFICALLY THE DARK URGE QUESTLINE.

    Bhaal has a new spawn created with the dark god’s own blood and sworn to drown the world in a pool of death and gore. When the Dark Urge is sent to kill the man who resurrected the worship of Bane in Baldur’s Gate , the urge meets a cunning human named Enver Gortash who greets him with a silver tongue and conviction. The pair come to an understanding and an unlikely alliance is formed between two worshipers of Bhaal and Bane.

    Set 5 years before the events of Baldur’s Gate 3, this fic serves as one possible account of how the dead three came to form their pact. Loose notes and small dialogue from bg3 served as the inspiration for this fic (specifically the Memoirs by Gortash book that you find in his quarters). I loved the short interactions and hints we got at their past together. I will update the TW tags as I go but there will be a lot of death, violence, manipulation, and blood.

    Summary

    Ninox Ryrrl, amnesiac dragonborn sorcerer, and a party of other illithid infected victims draw ever closer to Moonrise Towers, the place they have been told holds the key to their infection, and the seat of power of new god, The Absolute. But the trials of the Shadow Cursed Lands, the horrors of Moonrise Towers, the twisted games of a devil, the legacy of the victims hundred years of twisted divine cruelty, and each of their own dark pasts may at last prove to be too much for them.

    Ninox snarls and shoves Astarion away from him, hard. The elf stumbles, hitting the wall of the small wash gully with a sickening crack, even as Ninox is scrambling away from him, from it, stumbling over his own feet, falling against the wall of soil and stone, then slipping, stumbling, landing on his chest hard enough the wind leaves him. There’s shouting from somewhere nearby, but Ninox can’t focus on that. He has to get away from Astarion before he does something, before he is -

    This is my retelling of Act 2 of Baldur's Gate, with my Dark Urge, combined with my own head-cannon and world building.

    “I enjoy the company of men.”

    There was a tentativeness to Jaskier’s voice, and an edge. His chin was raised as if he expected Geralt to take a swing at him.

    Summary

    Young Geralt meets young Jaskier at Melitele's Temple.

    *

    On his very first day, a child with enormous blue eyes, a little younger than Geralt or simply shorter, starts following him around.

    Geralt is unnerved. There are other Witchers in training in Kaer Morhen, so it’s not like he isn’t used to being around kids his age, but they never mingle with civilians. Civilians need them, but don’t like them very much, Vesemir says, and Geralt suspects that to be a euphemism, a new word he just learned. A kindness. He’d seen the looks on people’s faces, how quickly they step away from them in the way you do when you put your hands too close to a fire. Witchers are useful, but dangerous, even the ones as young as Geralt. You wouldn’t adopt a wolf cub, knowing what he will grow into.

    Geralt’s efforts to avoid the child last an impressive ten minutes.

    Summary

    Will Graham, sharp-eyed and sharp-mouthed, has always been a bit weird with his uncanny sense of doomed fate.

    After a traumatic Christmas, floating through his masters program with the reluctant help of his friends, a chance meeting at a lecture with known Doctor Emeritus and Professor of Lithuanian Culture, Hannibal Lecter, puts him on the spot to make a change.

    An invitation to see the insular Lecter Estate's nine-day celebration of the Rasos festival is just the kind of mental reset he needs. Doctor Lecter is certain of it.

    Summary

    A bundling of ficlets and drabbles that are based on the wayward idea that Vanus Galerion's soul is reincarnated somehow in the future. Kinda like the Nerevarine but not as original or interesting.
