Summary
She shouldn't exist. He shouldn't care.
And yet, in a garden that belongs to neither of their worlds, there she is. A mortal witch from a reality where magic is a fairy tale, who looks at him like he's neither monster nor mask. Just him. Whatever that means after all he endured.
It doesn't happen every night. It doesn't happen when he wants it to. It just happens. And that, for someone who has spent two hundred years controlling every variable of his survival, is the most terrifying thing of all.
Astarion has a master to kill, a city to save, a tadpole eating his brain.
None of it feels as dangerous as this.Comments and feedbacks are more than welcome! 🥰

Summary
Astarion should have died that night. In the story we know he did exactly that. Here, things went a little differently and he is very much alive.
However, healing magic has its limitations, and the Astarion who survived is markedly different from the one that fell to the Gur's clubs.
A month into recovery, he's still coming to terms with his loss of independence. Bedbound, partially mute, and being cared for by the same person who saved him in the first place: his mother. Apparently her adventuring days didn't fully end, even after decades of playing at being a proper Upper City wife.
Even worse, soon his beloved father decides caring for Astarion is a waste of time and resources, and tries to convince his mother to send him to... somewhere, anywhere, else.
It's amazing, what you start to notice when you're forced to stop and pay attention to people not named Astarion. So many aspects of his world and family, he now sees all too clearly. Out of the one eye that still works, anyway.

Summary
After curing themselves of ceremorphosis and tying up loose ends in the Material Planes, Astarion and his shapeshifting companion, Wren, must go into the Feywild to break the bonds that have ensnared them both in a web of lies, fate, and despair. Perhaps there's hope yet for the two of them, or perhaps they'll both fall to the plan that's been in place far longer than anyone's known. But who's really pulling the strings?
(Part 2 of This Is What We Get)
An established romance story full of juicy post-game content, with me as your humble Dungeon Master taking you and these beloved blorbos into the wild and weird world of the Forgotten Realm's fairy realm (deeply homebrewed, of course). So sit back, relax, keep your hands and fangs in the car at all times, and enjoy the show!Updates every other Tuesday!

Summary
And more than anything, she wanted him to learn to truly trust himself. To help him see that he was more than the monster he thought he was.
She didn't let herself dwell on the realization that maybe she wanted the same for herself.
Haunted by a past she remembers only in fragments, Tahlianna is determined to resist the darkness inside her—to become more than the weapon she was born to be. Alongside a certain vampire rogue, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, falls hopelessly in love, and learns that even the cursed deserve a second chance.
An Astarion x Dark Urge story that loosely follows in-game events, with a focus on the intimate moments in between. Contains angst, sex, violence, occasional fluff, and major spoilers. POVs alternate each chapter.
