  1. Summary

    This series explores all kinds of kinks and partners for Halsin, through a cohesive continuity where Halsin has a different partner (or partners) in each new work! Each work in the series is a "chapter" of the story, separated into a series to allow for full tagging. Please check the tags on each work as the topics vary through the story! Every fic is also written by a different writer, though a couple of writers took on 2 or even 3 chapters to expand the roster of pairings to explore!

    Many of the pieces also feature accompanying art created by artists who joined the collaboration, which may be embedded in the fic chapters or added as a standalone work after the fic they are paired with.

    The parts of this series will be revealed once per day from the 1st to the 27th of January, at which point the full series will be here and it will be marked as completed.

    Whilst the series does have a plot, it is also a sheer lacy underwear set of a plot that is a vehicle for hot and sexy fun for our favourite druid, so if one chapter's tags aren't a good your preferences you can safely skip forward and you won't be missing vital story points.

    Summary

    A prequel to the events of Baldur's Gate 3, exploring the relationship between Raphael and Haarlep from the moment they first meet and following through several key events in their long and storied history together as both seek their own goals and find how they connect between them.

    There will be a lot of smut in the works, as well as a fair amount of angst and character exploration. It will be written as a series like this with separate works rather than a multi-chapter work, to enable clearer tagging of each individual chapter as the content will vary and I would rather allow people a choice to skip parts of the story if there are tags they dislike, or to easily bookmark and return to tags that they adore~

    There is no set schedule due to life factors and multiple ongoing series that I switch between, but comments and interactions do help to inspire work on it.

    Summary

    The battle is won, the Netherbrain defeated, and Astarion is free. But as he returns to the shadows, someone fails to follow him —his lover, child of Bhaal, condemned to madness by his own father. For weakness, for disobedience, it matters not, Storm is lost. Astarion navigates his grief with Tav's help, and fights for closure.


    Chapter 2 snippet

    "I'm sorry." Her voice was soft and sincere. "I recon a lot of people have lost someone today."
    That was probably true. He didn't really care. What right did they have to complain when Storm had given up his life and no one would ever know? "The city still stands, though."
    "Hm. It's a good thing there are still idiots willing to risk their lives for the sake of everybody. Couldn't be me."
    He couldn't help but laugh again, somewhat bitterly. It would have never been him either, without Tav, or the looming threat of ceromorphosis.

    Summary

    Much to his chagrin, Astarion's life isn’t so very different from most people’s. He lives in a shitty apartment complex. He rides the bus to a low-paying job that he hates. The material realities of his existence keep him from following his dreams.

    To be fair, Astarion does happen to be better-looking than most of us. And he’s a vampire, too.

    But even though neither of those things seem to make our jaded vampire barista’s closing shift any less tedious, the arrival of his gorgeous new coworker, Adelaide, just might. And the excitement doesn’t end there; because Adelaide might also have a stalker, whose behavior grows bolder and more threatening with every passing day…

    Summary

    Salvius, devoted apostle of Ilmater and gifted healer, thinks this story is about how she completes her seventh and final act of miraculous self-sacrifice while curing this band of exiles and miscreants of this parasite. About how she and the Blade of Frontiers chart a course through the wilderness of the Sword Coast, saving wretched souls and falling for each other. About finally returning home in honour after breaking her back in the name of the Crying God.

    Nothing will ruin this for her, not even that lascivious vampire with his mouth full of sin and a soul in need of saving.

    ----

    “Avail yourself as a tool to the weary - let them know you can be used however they might need.” She blows a sharp breath out of her nose. “Sounds like a pretty clear directive to me, don’t you think?”

    For once, Astarion isn’t running his mouth with a cheeky retort. When she opens her eyes, he’s staring at Salvius with a curiously intense look. She can’t imagine what might have made him so pensive, only observes that even with the world spinning, he looks very still.

    A low voice that doesn’t sound like hers asks, “Are you weary?”

    Summary

    Astarion, the unascended vampire lord, has a proposal: Would you invite his newest footman, Hamlaith—who bears a striking resemblance to your witty rogue—into your bedchambers for a night of illicit indulgence? Enjoy this tale filled with smoldering smut, teasing repartee, and plenty of possessive and jealous behaviors.

    “I have so many terms before I even entertain the idea of you spit-roasting me,” your voice playful and edged with truth.

    Unfazed, he taps your nose quaintly. “And I look forward to reviewing and negotiating every one of them.”

    Hamlaith returns, gliding down the runner with two large green bottles and a pair of silver chalices balanced on a tray. His eyes stay lowered as he presents them to you, but the warm, living scent of him wafts closer, stirring that familiar pang in your fangs. Astarion’s hand rests lightly on your shoulder—a silent, steadying presence—and you relax. Hamlaith hesitates, unsure where to set the tray until you pat the platform beside you. Smiling softly, you direct, “Right here is fine, Hamlaith."

    Astarion leans low, catching the footman’s eye with a wolfish grin. “Thank you, Hamlaith.” A flush sweeps over the servant’s face.
