    Summary

    Fortunately, Gale seemed to have traded godhood for sainthood. All he did these days was wrangle troublemakers from the high seat of his settled life. He seemed to have a brand new, unshakable faith in people and their ability to wander back to him.

     

    or; Astarion gets into some trouble, Gale launches a rescue

    Summary

    These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.
    --
    Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.

    Summary

    Astarion lets his eyes slip closed, the words soaking into him. “Poor little Chosen,” he teases, studying the faint lines of the orb as they trickle down from his under eye. “He doesn’t know how to do anything but worship.”

    “Let me show you. Please.”

    “I like it when you beg.”

    “Astarion.” His name is like honey, like chocolate, like wine. Something decadent, every syllable indulged. “I’ve already availed you of one of my talents this evening—“

    “Cocky.”

    “—and I am eager to avail you of another.”

    Summary

    The Shadowcurse creeps into undead flesh like frost. Gale applies the most logical solution to save Astarion: full-body contact. For science. Obviously.

    Gale can cuddle Astarion warm through their first night in the Shadow-Cursed Lands—but if he thinks he gets to save someone else while planning to sacrifice himself, Astarion has a few objections to make.

    Canon compliance: Takes place in Act 2 just after arriving in the Shadow-cursed Lands and is mostly compliant except for the way the shadowcurse works (see notes)

    Now with incredible fan art in Chapter 2 by the amazing Minui8!
