    Summary

    "You alright, mate?"

    Karlach reaches for Astarion. Probably concern at the way his face has twisted and his body has stiffened into a shaking, desperate mess. An ugliness he would never usually let show.

    But Tav is bleeding. Blood dripping from his nostrils and wasted on the grass. And he shouldn't. He shouldn't-
    _
    Tav bleeds after a fight. A lesson in self control.

    Summary

    It was at that precise moment that everything clicked into place.

    Astarion wasn’t a person.

    Vampires look like people. Smell like people. Walk like — actually, Astarion had a recognizable gait, a sort of bounce to his step, not really elven. And it turns out they can talk and act like people too, beautiful people that make your head spin, make you feel as happy and desired as you’ve never been.

    But it’s all just an act — an act of predatory mimicry, designed to lure and entice, to make you drop your guard and voluntarily turn yourself into fucking bread.

    ***
    In short: Tav refuses to believe vampires are thinking, feeling people. And if someone is not a person, you don't have to treat them as one. The abuse is strictly psychological, no violence. Consent is seemingly given, only the reader knows it's insincere.

    Summary

    It has only been a few days since Astarion confessed his machinations. Only a few days since he broke her heart. Tav doesn't know what they are now. Certainly not lovers, not anymore. They never were, really; just manipulator and victim.

    And now Astarion is in trouble. Serious trouble. Tav knows that she should just walk away, but she can't. Even after everything he has done to her, she can't leave him to suffer alone.

    Summary

    He sat back up, a nervousness filling his chest. He wanted the intimacy; he wanted it badly. That moment in the graveyard was absolutely perfect, and he craved it almost as much as he craved the sunlight. But despite his desires to recreate a moment without his past's commentary, he hadn't been able to have his thoughts not linger to those two centuries.

    "I want to try something." Astarion said, then quieter, "Let me try?"
    =========================================================================
    Tav and Astarion finger themselves in front of each other. That's the story.

    Summary

    “Blood,” Wyll says, still feeling dazed. He brings a hand up to touch the stinging spot where he feels wetness drying on his neck, but bumps into Astarion’s arm in the way. “My blood. Astarion, you—bit me—”

    “Well, you enjoyed it,” Astarion says, almost sourly.

    Astarion's Act 1 bite scene, but a little to the left.

    Summary

    Once you’re seated in his lap, he reclines back, arms folded under his head.

    “Well then,” he says. “Go on and earn it. Ravish me, my love.”

    You stare down at him with your best unimpressed look. “Bit hard to do with no hands.”

    “And that’s why it’s an earn, dearest.”

    He wants you to use your mouth. With that glorious corset and necklace framing him so perfect. Them panties do nothing but accentuate his cock. His eyes gleaming up at you, his stupidly handsome face and that stupid pout he gets when he’s all…all lust-addled. It makes you fucking sigh like some swooning damsel, is what it does. Makes your stupid heart go stupid soft and melty when you look at him.

    Astarion has a proposition: you’d look lovely in rope. And you shouldn’t be the only one who gets to dress for the occasion.

    Summary

    When he looks at you again, you almost mistake the look on his face for sincerity. “I may be a heathen, sweetheart, but I think I know exactly what you need.”

    “Oh?” You almost smile. “And what do I need, Astarion?”

    “A change of faith.”

    You laugh lightly at that. “And which god do you propose I worship instead?”

    “Not a god,” he says, with that wicked smile that tempted so many people to their graves. You understand them all now.

    Or, Tav falls first and falls harder, and Astarion doesn't fall at all.

    Summary

    Evie's smile flattened a bit, her eyes peering up at him skeptically. Happy to humor him but decidedly onto him too.

    “Thankfully, I’ve had my needs met this evening.” Astarion let his thumb drag over her quick pulse. Evie could look at him however he wanted but she couldn't hide that. His hand traveled lower over her collar and her inhale lifted more of her chest into his palm. “Though…I wonder if anyone has considered your needs.” Her pulse raced deliciously beneath his touch. He could almost feel the blood pouring over his tongue. “If you like, we could go somewhere away from camp and get you exactly what you need.”

    “Oh - tonight?” Evie’s brows lifted. “I…have plans with Shadowheart tonight.”

    It’s Halsin’s night.

    Astarion doesn’t really mind that Tav is off with her woodsy lover, it’s just rather dull sitting at the Elfsong alone. Astarion heads out of the city to find a hunt when he picks up a trail that is much more tantalizing.

    Summary

    Astarion fast-talks an abnormal number of enemies into killing themselves in the shadow-cursed lands and the team makes idle (then less idle) conversation about it. It’s completely fine and doesn’t bother him at all and it absolutely doesn’t draw additional questions about why he does what he does for the team... and what they in turn would do for him.

    IE: Origin-run Astarion fic because its interesting to me how the party reacts to their vampire buddy if he doesn’t have Tav to be a social buffer for him. Act 2 content and spoilers.

    Summary

    “I had a plan, a nice, simple plan. Seduce you, sleep with you, manipulate your feelings so you’d never turn on me.”
    But what happens when step one works out perfectly, it’s step two that throws a wrench in his plans?

    Tarathil (my Tav) has vaginismus, a condition that results in involuntary spasming and pain at any penetration, and obviously this limits a lot of sexual activity. This fic follows the game plot and rewrites romance scenes to explore how Astarion would respond to a character that has those extra complications, especially given his early game motivations for sleeping with Tav.

    A monster that thinks it’s Astarion.
    And you, a corpse that still wants him to love you.
