   Summary

   Astarion was supposed to meet someone important today after crash landing on the beach, but he didn’t. Now he’s stuck playing the leader’s role for her while an unhelpful skeleton insists he track her down and drag her back to where she belongs. His thoughts are no longer his own, forced to remember a love he never asked for and doesn't want anything to do with. If he can survive the journey though, he'll free them both once and for all from this prison of fate he didn't know he was in.

   Alternatively: "Wouldn't it be interesting if Astarion could see just how many times I've played this exact story line because I can't ever seem to choose anyone else?" I asked myself one night, not realizing I would become possessed with the need to answer my own question.
