    Summary

    I think more skilled fanfic-ers would call this whump.
    This follows Astarion as he learns that not everybody is out to get him. In the meantime, they save the world or whatever. This is a rewrite of my earlier fic that keeps his character closer to what it is in-game (oops, I made him meaner).
    But here's the deal: There's graphic depictions of violence. Probably not a surprise. But there is also mentions of non-con. There are no super detailed accounts or anything, but... Astarion has had a bit of a rough un-life. You know the deal. I'll try to put in specific warnings for each chapter as we go. I also stole some bits from my other work, so if something seems super familiar (particularly any scenes that use script from the game), that's why.
    There is a bit of smut eventually, but I'll let you know beforehand.
