Summary
Gale, once the esteemed Archmage of Waterdeep and now the self-appointed Grand Collector of Magical Misalignments, finds himself stranded in an unfamiliar land with a ragtag group of liars, cutthroats, and aliens. While he manages to rekindle his long-neglected skills in building friendships with most of them, it's painfully apparent that the vampire harbours a profound dislike for him. Given his recent streak of misfortune, it's no surprise that fate dictates learning more about the volatile orb lodged in Gale's chest requires Astarion's begrudging cooperation.
Astarion, for his part, is simply trying to survive.
Thus begins a journey marked by personal evolution, confronting inner and not-so-inner demons and embracing self-compassion—not necessarily in that order.
Oh yes, and they also need to save the world.

Summary
It begins with sideways glances and wistful thoughts, it's stalled by doubts, and it ends in crimson petals.
'He was choking, wretching, and just as a shuddering sob tore through him, he felt something…or rather several somethings brush against his tongue, and then he was gagging and spitting, urgently trying to get it out. Something velvety and damp landed in his palm, and then another and another, as another round of coughing wracked him.'

Summary
The Games are a dangerous place. The stakes are high, the risks are higher, and the rewards are hard earned.
It's safer when you're close to no-one. Closeness makes you weak.
Shame the other elites won't let Wraith keep her life that simple.

Summary
Wraith usually never cared for the squad mates she got. Sometimes they weighed her down, sometimes they helped, but either way she tried not to care about them. Her newest squad, however, might just be the ones to pull her ass out of the fire when she needed them.
