    Summary


    ”Are you sure,” she managed to speak between kisses, “you want this?”

    “You’re asking me? You’re the one,” he murmured, nibbling her lower lip, “getting married, darling.”

    “Maybe what you really need is a friend, not a lover,” she’d told him.

    Tavya's with Gale now; Astarion is just a very close friend.

    So it’s definitely not a big deal when she runs into him the night before her wedding… right?

    Or, a story about Tav and Astarion becoming more than friends again in the messiest way possible.

    Summary

    She lay still and quiet.

    “Really, darling,” he said, forcing a cavalier tone, falling flat though at least no one was here to witness. “This is terribly selfish of you. You go and set my heart into such a tizzy only to fall into a sleep-like death.” He sank to his knees beside her, listening to the howls of this cursed land, the crackling of the fires. “Terribly selfish,” he chided.

    “Yes, Fangs,” he could imagine her saying, hands on her hips, the picture of indignation, “because this was all my grand plan. To take a fucking nap.”

    Summary

    “I won’t ask you why you chose him,” Claude continues. His smile is still curling his lips—a genuine smile that’s warming his eyes and breaking her heart. “I know why you chose him. I like him too. Just wish we could have...figured something out. Found a path to walk down together.”

    I chose you first, she thinks, I chose you and Dimitri died, and this was the only way I could fix it.

    Summary

    While his Vidyadhara features were always striking and not often seen, she had come to recognize them after all this time. What she had assuredly never seen before was the long, teal colored tail that coiled out from behind him.

    “You’ve had a tail this whole time?” she blurted out the moment she met his eyes.

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng stared at him. “How are you this dense,” he said flatly. “Wei Wuxian. The common people aren’t scared of you, they’re scared of your husband."
