    Summary

    Self-taught demon hunters Zoey and Mira get in over their head when they take mercy on a demon named Rumi.

    AKA,

    This was a kinktober prompt that got way out of hand. Rumi gave up on humanity a long time ago and went full demon, Mira is the last living heir to a tattered legacy, Zoey is here for the ride (and lying about everything) and nobody gets the ending they deserve.

    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    "First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."

    As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.

    "Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.

    "Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.

    "Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."

    Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.

    "A what?" he asked.

    Summary

    “Do you know how desirable you are?” Their gold eyes stared at Hannah and he blushed again. He opened his mouth but couldn’t find any words and snapped it shut again. “Let me put it this way. There is an intergalactic bidding war happening over who gets to fuck you first. And after that, there will be a long, long, line of people happy to get sloppy seconds. I know your kind is notoriously horny and stretchy, but think about what you’re getting into.”

    Hannah still wanted to explore what was out there, and slutting would be a good way to find a future off-planet. If he couldn’t go see the universe, at least a lot of the universe seemed willing to come see him.

    “Yeah, I want to try it.” Hannah’s face burned hot as he held their gaze. They gave him a deliberate nod before rolling their shoulders and popping their knuckles.

    “Well, I can tell you one thing for certain. No one in that bidding war wants to bottom for you. Roll over and stick your ass up.”
