Summary
At long last, after a grueling year in Avernus, Karlach, Wyll, and Astarion have found a way to remove Karlach's engine for good. Returning to Baldur's Gate (and a small cheap flat in the Lower City) Karlach recovers under the careful attentions of her lover, Wyll. There's only one problem: they've let Astarion stay with them. And though Astarion knows that this living arrangement must be temporary and the happy couple will get tired of his company soon enough, he finds himself growing attached to the little life they've made.
It doesn't help that he's madly in love with both of them. Or that they're all sharing a bed.

Summary
“You know I love you, Astarion,” you tell him now, stroking the harsh line of his cheekbone, smoothing down his smile lines. “But there are some things about me that will be unchanged.”
He looks at you as if his stubborn lock might just be worth breaking.
“Tomorrow,” he says instead, kissing your neck, the divet between your collarbones. Your breath catches. “We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Or: the first thing Astarion tells you is you're not allowed to leave the Palace. Post ending, Ascended Astarion/Good Aligned Vague F!Tav.

Summary
Complaint was good. Complaint was healthy. Complaint was what kept one clinging to their self by their fingernails, or else you’d end up like Aurelia, just this silent passive servile shadow to Cazador at all times.
In which Astarion becomes convinced that Wyll needs Astarion to teach him how to complain, and he might not entirely be wrong about that.

Summary
Hallucinations come a little more naturally to elves than other races. The vapor-thin veil between the reverie of trance and stark reality takes so little effort to pierce. An elf dreams through their memories without ever truly sleeping; thus, dreams do not always wait for consciousness to exit before stepping onto the stage. At least, that's how Astarion sees it. He's never had his assumptions checked by a second opinion.
Astarion, at Tav's request, eats something that doesn't agree with him. This has unexpected consequences.

A Thing Called Hunger by Syrina

Summary
Lucanis had never been so amused watching someone eat. She paused as she considered every bite, sometimes halving it, like she worried about taking too much though none of her bites could be considered anything but diminutive. She chewed thoroughly, vigorously, always with her fingers pressed to her lips to shield herself. She savored, letting out quiet little sounds of appreciation.
“Is that thyme?” she asked suddenly.
“It is.” He was surprised she could detect it. He had used the barest sprinkling, just enough to tame the bitterness of the onions.
A stirring in the back of his skull, movement from a phantom that had held himself so strangely patient that the absence of him was more jarring than his presence. Cook for her more.
A spark ignited in his chest, a need.
--
Or sometimes a family is a Hunger demon suffering from a long bout of humanity, her Dalish daughter, a demonicly possessed assassin, and the kooky aunts and uncles they've amassed along the way.
