Summary
Byleth was used to strange dreams, once. But ever since she joined with the Goddess, the dreams stopped, gone with the voice in her head. She used to miss them, almost as much as she misses Sothis. But the dreams are back, and the only times she can see or hear her friend are when she is dying, right before she wakes up.
It's been five years since the end of a war that almost destroyed Fodlan. Five years since the Flame Emperor was put down and the Immaculate One brought to heel. Five years since the Reigan heir became Almyra's King and the Boar Prince shed his skin to become the Savior King of Fodlan.
It's been five years since Byleth's students have all been in one place. But with the anniversary of the end of the war on the horizon, Garreg Mach is bustling with the most positive activity it has seen in centuries.
But a shadowy plot is being woven in the dark. The only way to bring an end to this secret war of terror is to band three houses together, one last time.

Summary
“Is everything alright in here?”
Surprised, Astarion breaks away from the kiss, turning over his shoulder to see a second, identical Gale peering in from the balcony, wide-eyed as he watches.
Astarion looks at the Gale in his arms for a moment, still breathless from the kiss, before turning back to this unwitting voyeur with a mischievous grin.
Hm. Maybe that’s my Gale…
Astarion wakes to an empty bed. When he seeks his beloved out, he finds himself getting more Gale than he'd bargained for.

this stupid fucking bloodweave fic that has tormented me at every turn by afincf_tirwer

Summary
When Astarion visits Waterdeep once the Elderbrain debacle is firmly behind them, he expects to have a wonderful time reconnecting with his friend and possibly coaxing a favour or two out of Gale.
What he doesn’t expect is Gale’s new colleagues, his new friends, to be brazen enough to flirt with Gale, right in front of him! This cannot stand, he simply must act, inaction is unthinkable in the face of such shameless flirting with Astarion’s wizard!

The Greatest of Thieves (couldn't take my love away) by grazimesmo

Summary
Forced together on a world-saving mission, Gale and Astarion's animosity burns until a brush with death turns rivalry into quiet devotion when Astarion goes down during a perilous mission and Gale takes on the weight of his recovery. As ambitions tempt their souls and desires complicates matters, they fight the Cult of the Absolute, all the while trying to confront the chaos within themselves.
A kiss before the final battle shakes the very fabric of their fragile friendship, and deciding to live together afterwards only heightens the tensions — Gale fears hurting Astarion, and Astarion feels unwanted, stranded in a home that isn’t truly his.
Love, slow and aching, grows between the cracks, and in the end, it's not fate that will keep them together, but the choice to stay.Bookmarked by thedeactivist

Summary
“I’ve made my choice,” he says, perhaps a bit snappishly. “My affliction is an outcome of my own thoughtlessness – for the second time in my life, I might add. I may have been given a second chance, but the Gods will argue that I am not deserving of a third.”
“If there is one thing I have learnt about faith,” Lae’zel says. “It is that we mustn’t allow fervent belief to cloud our judgement.”
“I do not possess fervent belief.”
Lae’zel lifts up her chin. “A dangerous combination. You don’t believe in the Gods, neither do you believe in yourself.”
With the clock ticking down on the last month of his life, one Gale Dekarios sets out to bring some holiday cheer to the rest of his friends for the last time.

Summary
“He was so used to this being the end, the precipice of a climax, a one-and-done and then a departure of warm skin (generally, in Astarion’s past experiences, forever). He wasn’t used to this being when everything would begin.”
Cockwarming + shibari —Exactly what it says on the tin.
