Summary
Astarion and Astarion have lived in the same flat for nearly as long as they've lived in Baldur's Gate. Certainly longer than they've been vampires, that's for sure. Over twenty years of memories, both good and bad, are etched within the peeling paint of their Lower City home.
Their twosome became four when Valora and Tav moved in, and four became six when both twins had children. A happy, chaotic little life. But a life the Ancunín brothers could have never dreamed of.
The day has finally come where Tav and Star are moving out with little Theo. It's the very first time Ast and Star have ever lived apart, and both twins grapple with the decision and their own feelings regarding it.Series

Summary
It's over. Astarion won. The hundredth year anniversary of his ascension was rapidly approaching and life had turned out better than Astarion could have ever dreamed of. A devoted wife, a beautiful son, and all the political power in Baldur's Gate he could hold in his sunkissed hands. Astarion was at peace after centuries of torment.
But in the shadow of the Vampire Ascendant lurked a figure from his past, the man who wore his face and shared his name. A shadow that could not bear the light and would forever pollute his mind. His peace was shattered by a mysterious letter, addressed to him by name.
To the Lord of the Crimson Palace, Astarion Ancunín,
Before you toss this letter into the bin or fireplace — I know where your brother is. If you don’t address this letter, I can assure you that you will never see him again.The forces hunting us are of a far greater magnitude than what is comprehensible to the physical mind. This entity will cut my family down and will not cease until yours is felled as well. It is near and the only solace we have is fleeing the coast — but it will find us. It will find you. We have one year.
Help us, Star.

Summary
Ten years.
It had been ten years since Namora last set foot in Fereldan, and she immediately was reminded why when the Temple of Ashes exploded. She hardly remembers the ordeal, but it made sure to leave a physical reminder in the form of a magical mark on her left hand. The same mark that would be the world as she knew it's only hope to be saved from absolute devastation.
10 years was also when she last saw the only man she's ever loved, Cullen Rutherford, and now they'd be reunited in such dire circumstances. Two people that have simultaneously changed a lot and not at all, would their love transcend time and bring them together once again?

Summary
Tav has always kept her fantasies separate from her real life. But ever since she stumbled across his videos—the faceless man with the rune-like tattoo on his forearm, dulcet whispering voice, and the way he makes his lovers unravel with nothing but the cadence of his praise—she hasn't been able to look away. Yet the introduction of her new trainee swings her desires into something far more dangerous, because opening the door for another very real heartbreak is the last thing she wants to do.
Astarion's been leading a double-life for years, nine-to-five on paper, mysterious pleasure dom after hours. It's always been just a superficial side-gig meant to bolster his earning. But when he finds himself enthralled with his trainer, the ensuing flirtation feels harmless until it isn’t, and something in him struggles to keep it together.
His usual detachment doesn’t hold. He's thinking about her when he shouldn't be and hearing her voice instead of the script. And it's fine. It's under control—not that it means anything. Naturally.
She was never supposed to know.
He was never supposed to feel.
And now neither of them can stop.
