    Summary

    Gale was an eruption of movement before she could even finish, flinging the tome at her, the only thing saving her head from colliding with its thick spine was her quick reflexes.

    “Don’t,” he spat. The veins of lightning on his forehead pulsed, the orb tattoo on his chest seething with a purple light. “Don’t you dare speak of her as if you know her wishes.” His hateful expression crumbled, revealing something hurting underneath. “You think I want this?” He swung his arms wide, to the state of his room. “You think I want any of this? I wanted her. I wanted a life together with her. We planned for a life together. I had bought books for her, to carry back to Waterdeep. I took her to the market one day, and she picked out curtains for us.” His voice wavered and he paused, sucking in a breath between his teeth. “I wanted her. That was all I wanted. But...apparently that was no simple request.”

    “So what’s the plan here?” Shadowheart asked. She kept a wary eye out for any more flying tomes and gentled her tone. “Become a god and then, what? Bring her back?”

    She waited for him to laugh at the ridiculous notion.

    He didn’t, he only met her stare with his own.

    --

    Or Tav dies and Gale copes poorly.

    Summary

    Astarion asks Lash to find him after the tiefling party. She agrees.

    Everyone else is a soggy traitor who has the gall to think he’s lying about this. What, like he couldn’t seduce a cleric a thousand times over?

    It’s just that Lash herself isn’t acting like a woman won. Maybe he’s secretly unattractive after all. Or he’s going mad.

    (Astarion’s horrible very bad tiefling party, and the ways in which it was almost good.)

    Summary

    Set during the events that transpire at the very beginning of Act 3 upon reaching Rivington. Tav now knows the origins of her Urges, and is rightfully terrified of what comes next.

    What happens when you hurt the person you love most whilst trying to protect them? Why, angst ensues, of course.

    Otherwise known as my ode to how much Astarion’s break up dialogue hurt me.
