   Summary

   After spending her life suppressing and hiding and struggling for control over her chaotic wild magic, Octavia Barrows' very methodical - if highly criminal - life is turned upside down. There's a mindflayer tadpole in her brain threatening to turn her into a monster. She's ass deep in magic and danger and while she is very good at pretending to be a normal and responsible business owner, the cracks are starting to show. The beautiful and casually murderous elf is not making anything easier.

   This is mostly me sorting out my Tav and building out her back story. It's the getting together phase of a Tav/Astarion romance.
