Summary
"You would've condemned her to death by my hand regardless of the circumstances, everything you touch is ruined by you, boy" Cazador loomed over him, a cruel smirk spread across his face.
"I see why you chose her, the naive have the sweetest smelling blood"
Astarion felt a cold hatred wash over him as his eyes met his masters. In that moment, the world had become silent, and the only tangible things in the chapel were himself, Cazador, and Junes' body.

Summary
Halsin reached to touch her face, but stopped and pulled away. His eyes looked sad, even pained.
“As much as it hurts me to turn you down…I think I should not be your first.”
“Why?”
He hesitated, also clearly struggling for the words.
“Druids…those of us who wild shape often…we take on aspects of the personality of the shape we take most often.” He paused for a long moment. “Cave bears…are viscous. Aggressive. I…cannot always control it. And you don’t have the experience to know where your own boundaries are.”
Tav sat quietly for a moment, thinking. She and Halsin had only been traveling together for a few weeks, but she had seen his strength even in elf form. She had watched him enrage, ripping a goblin into pieces, just that day. She met hit eyes, steady, then stood and took a step towards him.
“I will not let you hurt me,” she whispered in Elvish.

Summary
It’s been 10 years since Astarion and his companions have saved themselves and Baldur’s Gate from many great perils. The pale elf has killed his master and has resisted the temptation to ascend, but now finds himself all alone in the ruins of a life that used to be his in Baldur’s Gate, long before Cazador and the mindflayers. He is now a very famous tailor, spending most of his nights sewing elegant corsets and petticoats for nobles from all over Faerûn, but feels like his life is a series dull and colorless moments. His love for Tav has withered and died, like everything he touches, and his old friends are busy living their own lives. Consumed by solitude and struggling to find a purpose to his immortal existence, Astarion crosses path with a young painter named Selene. She has lost her artistry, he has lost his reflection. Could they find in each other what they have been looking for all along?

Summary
Come in from the deep waters. Come to where the sun shines right through to the sand.
They are mutable. They are water. They can follow the tide away from this place or they can murmur can I kiss you? in some half hope no one can hear.
And then–
A pair of lips–Too hot, like cider on snow chapped lips. Dry like thin air and just as dizzy. So bashful they can feel the brush of scars on their cheeks. Too practiced. Not practiced enough. Hesitant until the tide comes in and they are swept up together.
Kiss me. Questions, demands and desperations. It’s in all of them now.
The Feywild provides.

Summary
Astarion and Tav have been enjoying each other's company for awhile, even if she insists on not telling the others. A little put out at their relationship being kept a secret, Astarion is still enjoying this new life, free in the sun with such delightful company. But he has a darkness in him still, a desire for control and domination.
And tonight he's got an idea. A way to start showing Tav the pleasure of submission - and the benefits of pain.
***
“What am I?” Astarion asked roughly.“You’re a vampire,” Tav replied hesitantly.
“Yes,” he said as kissed her, rewarding her. “So what do you say to stop me?”
She was confused, her eyes searching his for the answer.
“Vampire,” she said again uncertainly, and he leaned in for another quick, rough kiss.
“Not ‘stop’. Not ‘no’. Not ‘please’,” he ordered firmly. “That won’t work, do you understand?”
Tav nodded, her chest moving rapidly with her quick, shallow breaths, and he could feel her nipples flickering against his stomach with each fast rise and fall.
“Vampire,” he reiterated, reveling at how ominous and dramatic it sounded. “Now say it. So I know when you mean it.”
“Vampire,” she repeated obediently.
