Summary
When Mulder and Scully are called to look into a baffling death in a small, isolated town, they expect a routine X-File (if there's any such thing). But as they dig deeper, the familiar quickly turns strange. Odd details at the crime scene hint at something unnatural, and as they follow a trail of clues, the world around them begins to shift in unsettling ways. Are they falling victim to lost time, slipping between parallel dimensions, or has something far more sinister — like the whispers of dark fairies from old folklore — taken root? As reality unravels, they must question everything they know if they have any hope of solving the mystery — and making it out alive.

Summary
Halsin was a relatively new addition to their camp, and Astarion wasn’t quite sure what to make of him. Of course, the druid certainly pretended to be kind, and helpful, and considerate, but surely that was just a little too good to be true. Astarion needed to keep his guard up, because it seemed that there were fresh things trying to kill them on a daily basis, even on top of the ever-present threat of ceremorphosis, and he still had Cazador to worry about. It was certainly no time to go soft.
Astarion negotiates the plot of Baldur's Gate 3 (and a little bit beyond), facing the standard trauma and tribulations, all while stubbornly trying to avoid falling in love with their resident druid.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.

Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
It had been two and a half months since the end of Spring Break.
Eddie had been cleared of all charges, The Byers were back in Hawkins like they’d never left, Vecna was dead and gone, and everything was back to normal; or rather as back to normal as Hawkins could get.
Unfortunately for one Steve Harrington, his new normal seemed to be not only his inability to get a date, but also his newfound proclivity towards staring at Eddie Munson’s mouth while he dramatically narrated during a five hour Hellfire session, or counting the freckles on the bridge of his nose, or memorizing the patterns in his honey coloured eyes.
What the fuck was wrong with him?
(Now with Eddie’s pov added!)

Summary
As captain of the Bronze Mare, Geralt is one of the most sought-after independent contractors in all of Soladux. Working on the outskirts of the Corporation’s laws, Geralt has very few rules for himself. Rule number one, though: he works alone. Other people only drag him down.
But when a hitchhiking con-artist, a former apprentice, and a supposedly casual hookup end up aboard the Bronze Mare with him, he has to find a way to make it work. It’s one job, after all. The biggest job of his career. Afterwards, they’ll go their separate ways, and he’ll be settled for life. Assuming they make it out alive.
Maybe the real space adventure AU is the friends we make along the way.
