    Summary

    After escaping from monster hunters raiding the Szarr Palace, Astarion flees from Baldur's Gate to Waterdeep. Following another close call, he is inexplicitly turned into a bat, despite being a vampire spawn.

    Meanwhile a lonely and depressed Gale is walking home from the tavern when he’s smacked in the face by a small, wet bat that got caught in the storm.

    Cue a montage of two idiot's going from vindictive pet/oblivious owner to friends to lovers.

    Summary

    In which Tav believes the latest symptom of her grief is the hallucination of her lost love.

    Or, Gale finds himself unexpectedly resurrected.

    ------

    Gods, she hates him. Hates him bitterly for leaving her behind. And Gods, how she loves him, still. Enough to have dragged herself to Waterdeep, as per his wishes. Enough to have let Tara coddle her those first few days. Enough to have sobbed into Morena Dekarios’ waiting arms. Enough to speak to him every evening from the balcony he had promised they would share. Enough to have started reading each of his books, knowing his fingers had touched every page. Enough to imagine all the ways he might’ve reacted to the news of his impending fatherhood. The latter she lingers on more than she would like, for it only gives way to other, saccharine fantasies she knows will never come to fruition.

    Summary

    Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.

    Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”

    “None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

    Summary

    A series of fics in which Tommy may or may not be the Blood God.

    NOTE: I used to say that these fics didn’t need to be read in order, but we’ve definitely gotten to the point where newer chapters will make a LOT more sense with context.

    Also here's a bonus scene that you can read after Phil's installment.

    Summary

    “What does it say?” she asks. Techno is the exception in literacy rates. He blinks, letting the quote he’d been studying come into focus.

    Even the finest sword plunged into salt water will eventually rust,” Techno says hoarsely.

    (or, the Dread Pirate Technoblade kidnaps a kid and then accidentally makes friends. He's not very good at this.)
