Summary
"What did you say?" the pale man asked, sounding almost breathless. He clenched his hands at his sides, digging what appeared to be very dark, sharp nails—almost claws—into his palms.
“You're beautiful," Gale repeated, rolling onto his side. His chest ached, and his vision was blurring again. If this was a vision before death, perhaps this was his mind's strange conjuring of an angel. Might as well make the most of it. "Like an angel....or a mermaid…? But those flippers are distinct…a pinniped?" he coughed weakly, his eyelids fluttering. He was rambling like an idiot.
"Not a bad last sight," Gale murmured, letting his eyelids droop. "The mind plays such tricks…" He reached out, gripping one clammy hand in his. His attempt to lace their hands together was restricted by a delicate web between each of Astarion's pale fingers. The other man's hand went rigid as stone, but he didn't pull away.
"Depths below, you're not dying, you imbecile," Astarion snapped. "Although perhaps it'd be better if you were." Those were the last words Gale heard before he slipped beneath the wave of unconsciousness.

Summary
Astarion was bored.
Since breaking free of his former master’s chains, life had become monotonous. While glad he was no longer under the bastard’s control, he hadn’t realized just how dull and repetitive freedom could be.
Most nights passed uneventfully, with hunting, swimming and eating, then he would rest during the day; repeating the same cycle over and over again.
Then a human dropped into his life and everything changed.

Summary
Not far from Creche Y'llek, Gale sits near the edge of a ravine contemplating what to do about Mystra's directive on using the orb. But as he stares at the night sky, his mind focuses on Astarion, the man he is hopelessly in love with.
Concerned for Gale's well-being, Astarion leaves camp to search for him across the craggy terrain. It doesn't take Astarion long to find Gale and join him on the mossy rocks, discussing the drastic choice presented to him regarding the orb.
After travelling together for almost two months, feelings that had steadily grown bubble to the surface, prompting a long overdue conversation between them.
