Summary
After all these years away from home, Gale still hasn't learned to love his job at Santa's Workshop. It's not that the sun is gone for half the year, he never figured out how to use a computer, and the whole thing is a massive scam. All that's not so bad. If only he weren't forced to deal with the world's rudest elf...

Summary
Half a decade after Viktor leaves Piltover for good, a fragment of Hexcore permanently adhered to his soul, an old friend comes to him for help. This wouldn't be an issue, if the same old friend hadn't spent the last five years trying to hit him, very hard, with a really big hammer.
“You’re not real,” Viktor repeated, closing his eyes. Even with the knowledge that this was a dream, the gentle touch unraveled him. There was an impact crater where his heart should be.
The calloused pad of Jayce's thumb found the corner of Viktor’s mouth. “All right. I’ll bite – what’s your evidence for this hypothesis?”
Viktor smiled into the touch, felt it tug against Jayce's thumbprint. “Isn’t it obvious? You haven’t tried to kill me yet.”- Language:

Summary
“That Orb in your chest,” Elminster says finally, voice so thick with purpose that Gale snaps out of his self-deprecation. For the first time in months, his mind feels capable of focus. “Is made of Karsite Weave. Mystra will not help because it is a danger to her very existence.”
“I… didn’t know. I swear! I swear I had no idea, Elminster, you have to tell her! I thought – I was told – it was a part of her. I would never–”
Elminster raises a hand.
“Peace. Do not worry about that now, my boy, and listen to me. In Baldur’s Gate there is a wizard by the name of Lorroakan. Some years ago, he came into possession of a book called The Annals of Karsus. In it, Karsus writes about what he refers to as the Regalia of Karsus – a Crown, a Sceptre and an Orb.”or; Gale travels to Baldur's Gate early, runs into a Hag and gets turned into a cat

Summary
"So here he is, he thinks with dark, nauseating humor. One of the glorious heroes of Baldur’s Gate—hungover and lightly crisped, sprawled on his back in the one place he had wanted more than anything in the world to leave behind forever—
The great Szarr palace. Home sweet home."
--
The villains are defeated. The heroes claim their victory. Astarion sinks down to exactly where he started. Gale plots his apotheosis. Somehow, they meet in the middle.

It figures, he thinks sourly as he scrapes the muck from his tongue with fingernailed ferocity, that although it seems he can drink the blood of thinking creatures, the very first one he chooses makes him regret the whole godsdamned thing.

Summary
"Unfortunately, our progress has stalled out somewhat," Ikithon says, slowly circling the beacon on its stand. Under any other circumstances, that would be the thing that drew Essek's eye.
Instead, his gaze is fixed on the man sitting in a chair at the circle's center. A picture of misery, he is bound hand and foot to the chair with thick iron cuffs. His face is mottled with bruising, his rust colored hair hangs in limp, tangled clumps, and his clothes are torn and burnt. Wide, frightened eyes the color of daylight sky whip frantically back and forth between them.
Essek knows that face. He knows it all too well. Not two months ago, that face kissed him on the forehead and told him that he was still capable of good.
The bottom drops out of Essek's stomach. Please not him.
--------
After the peace talks at sea, Ikithon approaches Essek with an offer he can't refuse... But dearly wishes he could.

Summary
The kiss is brief, only a second or two, not even long enough for Steve to really register what's happening before Eddie pulls away. Steve’s frozen in place, his arms still wrapped around Eddie.
Steve blinks down at him. "What?" he says stupidly. What?
Eddie closes his eyes, a weak smile on his lips. "Something to remember me by."
"You're not dying," Steve says. It feels like his mouth isn't attached to his brain anymore; the inside of his head is a dial tone.
"Of course I am," Eddie says, eyes still closed. "I'm dying right now."
"You're not, though." His voice keeps getting higher, for some reason. "You're not going to die here."
"Spare me the pity, Harrington, I know—"
"You're literally not dying right now." His whole body is hot. Is he sweating? "You lost some blood but they didn't get deep enough—I looked—you're going to be fine."
There's a pause. "I'm going to be fine?" Eddie asks, voice also going high and thin. "You're—sure?"
"Yes."
"Fascinating. Great. Are you—could you do me a favor, then, and maybe just—leave me here anyway?"
"What?" Steve says. The dial tone gets louder. "No. Why?"
"No reason," Eddie says, voice tight.
