    Summary

    Gale stood hesitantly, just far enough from the door of Sharess’ Caress that his intended destination wasn’t obvious to any passers-by. He adjusted his robe unnecessarily, smoothing a non-existent crease from one purple sleeve. He was suddenly aware of his heart thumping rather loudly. It was a cool night, but he could feel his forehead tingling as though he were about to start sweating.

    This was a mad idea. He could just turn around now and go back to his room at the Elfsong. Spend the evening reading. Alone. Again.

    ---

    Non-tadpole AU where Astarion is sent to work at Sharess' Caress to procure victims for Cazador, and Gale finds himself seeking company.

    This is an Epilogue for my fic 'Keep your distance, darling'. It can be read on its own if you skim over the references to past events, but I'd love if if you read the fic too! Enjoy the happy ending that I made some of my poor readers forget was coming.

    Summary

    The vampire's eyes are wide and round, full of amazement. They dart wildly around the sights below, as if trying to see everything at once. The lights of the city reflect upon his face, soft shadows dancing across his elegant features. The very tips of his fangs are visible from his parted lips.

    The radiance of the city pales in comparison.

    ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧

    Two months after the brain falls, Baldur's Gate has picked up most of the pieces. The heroes that saved Faerûn have been there through most of it, helping the city get back on its feet. But now it's time to move on. Old lives and families to return to. Gale is going back to his tower in Waterdeep, back to the quiet, back to being alone; or at least, that was the plan. But plans change.

    This is a story about falling in love.
