    Summary

    It's commonplace for anyone who wants to keep a vampire alive but remove the danger of being drained to defang them.

    When Astarion’s late night attempt to get a taste of blood goes wrong, he assumes the worst.

    (Or in which Cazador plants a seed and over a century later, Astarion has help weeding it out.)

    Summary

    Astarion notices that Gale never calls him by name. It doesn't bother him in the slightest. (Yes, yes it does.) Luckily, Gale is more than willing to make it up to him.

    Summary

    LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
    1971 - 1995

    This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!

    PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??

    Summary

    “Aww.” Karlach cooed, eyes locked on something up ahead.

    Astarion was clinging to Gale, arms wrapped around the other man’s shoulders and waist and their lips locked firmly together.

    “The heat of battle understandably can stir desires, but to behave so brazenly in the open.” Lae’zel hissed, the public display being far too human for her liking or even understanding.

    “I think it’s sweet.”

    Lae’zels face twisted.

    “Somethings wrong.” The gith's voice suddenly grave.

    Summary

    Gale was known to stay up too late reading. Long after Karlach’s snores started to rumble the air, or Lae’zel’s weapons practice wore her down. After Astarion had departed camp to go find his prey for the night.

    What was unusual was for him to still be awake by the time Astarion returned to camp. The noise took him by surprise. It was enough to make him put his book down with a frown as he tried to focus in on the noise.

    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

    When Astarion awakens in the aftermath of the Nautiloid crash, it is not to a friendly face but the press of goblin steel against his cheek.

    Now a captive of the Absolute, he is left starving and huddled in the corner, waiting for the beast that shares his cell to finally strike.

    Bears, after all, are not known to be the most gracious killers.

    Summary

    Astarion is in need of a protector, and who better than a man who became a devil to save a woman he didn't know? How much further would he go for someone he did know? Astarion resolves to seduce Wyll before Karlach can.

    Except Wyll has his own infernal problems, which Astarion is dragged kicking and screaming into caring about, and worse, worse is the growing realization his feelings for Wyll might be genuine.

    Summary

    Summary

    Tav pulls Astarion's face into the crook of his neck and there, the vampire inhales faster than he can get the breaths in. The smell; blood below the skin and sweat sat on top of it. His tongue is out before he realizes, lapping over the area, dragging up any taste he can get.

    Tav’s other hand presses into the small of his back, arching Astarion into him, making him whine at the feeling of the cock shifting inside him, until Astarion’s chest is flush against Tav’s.

    “Feed.”

    When the Shadow-Cursed lands lack suitable prey, Astarion distracts himself from the hunger with sex until he can’t anymore.

    Summary

    Your fingers brush over the pages of the open sketchbook in your lap, a charcoal stick held in your other hand. You flick it over your knuckles, tounging at the back of your teeth as you allow your wrist to move with your flowing thoughts.

    You think of Astarion’s words from the first time you had caught him gazing into that broken mirror, fresh on your mind even if it feels like it’s been ages since you’d heard them.

     

    “I want to know what the world sees when it looks at me. What you see.”

     

    (Or, you draw Astarion to show him what he looks like.)

    Summary

    The room is too bright.

    It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.

    It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.

    With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

    Summary

    “But,” he continued, his voice cracking. “Even if I wasn’t rescued, I don’t think– it wouldn't have been over. Not for me.”

    Will’s brows knit together.

    “The rest of you–we know what happens when we die. It’s not like mortals who are just guessing, we know what the afterlife is. It’s almost guaranteed that everyone here is going to Elysium. You all have that.”

    “And you don’t?” Will asked.
