Summary
"Sure, he’s glad, relieved, to learn Wyll is still alive, but how? Wouldn’t ceremorphosis have been their fate, if not for the artifact, and since Karlach and Wyll parted with it when they left the party, they—
Oh.
Astarion wants to blame the hit to the head because, surely, he isn’t usually this slow? Wyll and Karlach must be following them, since for all they probably hated their guts after they spilled the refugees’, they still wouldn’t fancy turning into mindflayers."Or, Wyll leaves with Karlach, and Astarion stays with an evil, cruel leader. Their paths still cross, and, perhaps, change.

Summary
Lorroakan wasn't meant to be such a dreadful foe. But the smarmy wizard has one trick up his sleeve, and that's when Wyll Ravengard's day goes from bad to absolutely catastrophically horrible.
***
"I—well, we, suspect Astarion has been feebleminded," Gale declares.
"Feeble-whated?" Karlach asks. "Never heard of that before."
"It's very advanced magic—takes a master of the Weave to pull it off," Gale explains. "It—it obliterates a person's mind. If we're correct, and I truly hope we're not...then Astarion's not really with us anymore."

Summary
Tav seemed to inch closer to him then, perhaps out of concern, perhaps out of curiosity. He fought the urge to back away. She may have starved him, may have pushed him, but she was nothing like Cazador. Tav didn’t have it in her to hurt him.
So why did it hurt when the seducer became the seduced?

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.

Bookmarker's Notes
When I think Bloodweave, I think of this fic. Astarion and Gale are both written so beautifully. Emotional and complex and genuine. Their arcs after the Netherbrain and Cazador and the orb are real and difficult but the journey they share together is worth reading a dozen times over.
