Summary
“I see you've already found your assigned seat.” Hugo chirped, fixing Robert with a look that only meant trouble.
Realization started to dawn on Robert’s features as Hugo walked to the classroom door and shut it. He felt glued to his tiny desk/chair combo, half because he was sure he would never be able to pull himself out of it, and the other half because the way Hugo looked in his little tweedy suit jacket and slacks, pacing at the front of the class, made his dick ready to fucking learn.

Summary
After the rest of their party disappears into the city on their next quest to bring down the Absolute, Astarion and Gale find themselves stranded in the Elfsong Tavern with nothing to do except needle at one another.
Their teasing banter detours into personal terrain when the vampire discovers Gale’s divine tryst with Mystra was purely spiritual, and that his physical body has never known the touch of a lover. Intrigued by the thought of seducing a mortal virgin, Astarion proposes filling in the gaps of Gale’s education.

Summary
“I am not eager to throw myself upon another altar for naught but scraps in return.” Gale steels himself with a deep breath. He speaks his peace to the wilds and the cosmos rather than his lover's face. “And yet. Marble skin, silver tongue... eyes like Moonsea rubies. Oh, you cast a fine altar, Astarion.”
With two discerning appetites, a deal to keep each other fed is the one thing that ties Astarion and Gale together. But the proverbial collar slips all too easily around Gale's throat, the lead feels right in Astarion's unchained hands, and both men think they've bested the other in a game neither should be playing.
In any case. As the greats say in lanceboard: there is no shame in losing to a stronger foe.

Summary
‘Whatever I understand, I know that you have won renown and glory on the field, and shown yourself to be mighty in arms, and fearless, and fair. And I know that you are a lady of great heart, and that it is softer than you have made it. And that I would not for my life have you made less than you are. And I would wed you, and live with you in peace, as Éowyn, or Dernhelm, or whoever you wish. And what I do not yet understand, I will learn, and gladly.’
