    Summary

    “You—you keep complimenting me!” Astarion whirls on Halsin, glaring. “There’s no need to entice me into your bed with false flattery.” Clocking Halsin’s expression, he adds, “It’s not that I don’t enjoy being flattered, you know. But surely this is a bit much. Just say I’m beautiful and leave it at that.”

    -

    Astarion doesn't believe Halsin's compliments. Halsin endeavors to prove him wrong.

    Summary

    Halsin's brow furrowed. “You look hungry.”
    Fuck. Fuck. Was it that obvious? Astarion's reserves had run out five days ago, but that was hardly the longest he had gone without blood before. There had been times when he was fed a single rat over the span of a tenday, and he had still managed to pull himself together enough to bring victims back to Cazador.
    He gathered his wits and threw on one of his more seductive masks. “My dear druid, I am always hungry, especially with someone as handsome as you around.” He gave Halsin a lingering once over, allowing appreciation and lust to show on his face as he did. The druid was handsome, that was true. Well-muscled but soft in all the right places, powerful but not overbearing, kind but with an animalistic streak that surely meant he was a freak in bed. Plenty for Astarion to work with.

    OR: Halsin offers Astarion his blood, and Astarion waits for the catch.

    Summary

    Halsin was a relatively new addition to their camp, and Astarion wasn’t quite sure what to make of him. Of course, the druid certainly pretended to be kind, and helpful, and considerate, but surely that was just a little too good to be true. Astarion needed to keep his guard up, because it seemed that there were fresh things trying to kill them on a daily basis, even on top of the ever-present threat of ceremorphosis, and he still had Cazador to worry about. It was certainly no time to go soft.

    Astarion negotiates the plot of Baldur's Gate 3 (and a little bit beyond), facing the standard trauma and tribulations, all while stubbornly trying to avoid falling in love with their resident druid.

    Summary

    Even now, as they wander the dank beach strewn with Duergar bodies, he can feel Halsin’s eyes on him. Astarion isn’t an idiot. He knows what the druid wants. He’s an alpha, after all, and alphas really only want one thing, in Astarion’s experience.

    Or: some self-indulgent omegaverse Halstarion with a focus on fluff and smut.
