    Summary

    "Tell me, pet, when the moment arrives, when your Father kneels before us in the depths of Gehenna, where will your loyalties lie?"

    The words were her promise, breathed against his lips. "When the moment comes, I will feed you his flesh."

    Raphael uses the Crown of Karsus to conquer Avernus. Alongside the once Hero of Baldur's Gate, he schemes to secure his position in the Hells and ascend to true Divinity. They will be the happiest of bedfellows.

    Summary

    Little moments from different Acts that are canon to me because it's a crime you can only hug Astarion once. Being able to help someone with sexual trauma like Astarion is literally everything to me and I can't thank Larian enough for making a character like him. It's healed me too and these chapters are going to dive deeper into that healing process in-game.

    Not technically canon-compliant since you can't romance Halsin before act 3 but I really wanted to explore this dynamic some more.

    Includes some epilogue chapters from pre-patch 5, going for the no-ascension path.

    Summary

    (or the one story where Astarion and Tav are invited to a ball that is more than meets the eye)

    “Dare say, my love, did I make you lose your breath?”, Astarion asked while he hooked his thumb onto your chin, raising his head from yours, his expression becoming haughty.
    Your heart tumbled treacherously at his playful words.
    “You always do, Astarion,” you answered and felt how your quickening pulse made your chest rise and fall even more.
    “Good”, the vampire replied and splayed his hand flatly over the delicate skin of your exposed neck and slowly dragged it upwards until his thumb and index were loosely around the base of your throat. He pressed a quick, quite forceful kiss to your slightly parted lips. And you knew the rush of dancing was not just getting to you alone.
    “Don’t catch it yet, darling, I’m not done with you yet,” the pale elf promised, tongue in cheek. You loved the ambivalence in his words – deepened by the low, almost rumbly tone of his voice.

    Summary

    Astarion still cannot believe that a wretch like him could be deserving of such a good looking fate. For once, he's looking forward to a better future and... he's in love.

    He can finally enjoy endless intimate moments with his lover, no longer playing a mere role that wasn't himself. And tonight was going to hold one of these moments.
