    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

    Just before Gale could settle in after a long day of teaching, he gets a phone call from an unrecognizable number. Astarion— a name Gale hadn’t heard in decades, is in the hospital, and has listed Gale as his emergency contact.

    Why was Astarion in the hospital? And why in the hells would Gale be listed as Astarion’s emergency contact? He knew he had to visit him to find out.

    And for Astarion… the clerics tried all they can, but apparently, his mysterious illness is resistant to healing magic. So what the hells could he be dealing with?

    •••••

    Strangers, to friends, to lovers— through consistently showing up for someone when they need it, and showing exactly how necessary it is in life to be loved and cared for.

    Summary

    Astarion is a hero of Baldur's Gate and rich beyond belief; he does not need a job, but rather a hobby. But after years of failing business for his boutique, there is a sudden, permanent influx of customers, and he can hardly keep up with all the new work. What's a business man to do when there's too much work for one person? Hire an apprentice, of course! Tav is promising, but has a lot to learn, and he's very willing to teach her. How could he not, when she looks at him with such admiration?

    OR

    Booming business for Astarion's boutique leads to him hiring an eager apprentice.

    Summary

    Gale Dekarios had spent decades writing letters to prepare Astarion for the inevitable day they would part, imagining his words being read centuries later, echoing through the empty halls of their home. But fate had other plans. Astarion, the immortal vampire who had endured centuries of torment, was gone, leaving Gale—the mortal wizard—to face the silence of their shared eternity. Now, with only his carefully crafted letters as a guide, Gale must navigate his grief and find solace in the words he once wrote for Astarion.

    ---

    "My dearest starlight sovereign,

    If you’re reading this first letter, I’ve likely committed the gravest of social faux pas by dying without properly scheduling it. I can already hear your indignant protest: “Really, darling? And after all those lectures about proper planning and preparation.” I know how you despise impromptu departures, my love—particularly the permanent kind."

    Summary

    “A break can do wonders to refresh your mind, my Star. You may find when you return after a bit of respite that your ideas flow more easily," Gale murmurs into soft curls, rubbing circles into the tense muscles of Astarion's shoulders. “Let me take care of you for a while?”

    -OR-

    Astarion is stressed out trying to make his wedding dress, and Gale helps him relax.

    Summary

    The boys are going out! Morena is babysitting, Gale canceled his office hours, and Astarion has outdone himself with these outfits (if he does say so himself).
    Just a lot of fluff really.

    Summary

    “Perhaps you aren’t the one in control of the leash tonight, Astarion.” Gale sent a thin finger-like tentacle, dripping with viscous fluid to circle Astarion’s entrance. The elf’s breath hitched as he tried to maintain his glare while the tentacle slowly eased into him.
    “But I can assure you,” Gale continued as he steadily increased his pace, directing the tentacle against Astarion’s hole to thrust shallowly in and out at the same rate, “I’m still a very, very good boy.”

    It's puppy play with chubby Gale in a corset. That's it. That's the fic.

    Summary

    Astarion, with inspiration from Sebastian, kills his master, breaking the cycle of death he's forced upon his spawn. With no clear path ahead of him, he reunites with his parents and they help him settle in this new nighttime life he faces.

    He opens up a tailor shop in Baldur's Gate, encouraged by his parents. Over the years he meets each of the core companions... and falls for a certain large elf who comes in for more 'civilized' clothes for a conference in the city.

    Summary

    Astarion knew what he was getting into the moment Gale asked for his hand and Astarion found himself temporarily speechless before saying yes. Amidst all the joy and love that made him remember for an instant what it was to feel alive, nothing could stop the immediate follow-up reminder that Gale was so very, very human, and Astarion was not.

    Seventy years after his goddess ordered him to sacrifice his own life, Gale Dekarios defies all odds and dies painlessly and at peace, surrounded by his chosen family. It was a long-expected parting, but that's of little comfort to his devastated spouse, who must now face life without him. Fortunately for Astarion, Gale had a particular affinity for Illusion, and with several decades to prepare for his natural death, he was never going to just leave his husband to grieve on his own.

    Summary

    Five years is a long time for a human. An eighth of Gale Dekarios’ entire existence, yet still not long enough to forget that which he desperately wishes he could. The weight of time serves only to chain him to that moment, restored and unmade simultaneously.

    Five years is the blink of an eye for an elf, and hardly even that for a vampiric one. Still, Astarion Ancunin wants nothing more than to go back and play that moment in time on repeat, until he's memorized every detail. Maybe if he could, he'd finally be able to put two centuries of torment to rest.

    They must decide what they're willing to do to escape their respective prisons and come to terms with what they've already done. When two sides of the same coin are melted through and forced to intermingle, they will be forced to open their eyes. Is it worth it?

    Summary

    “Wha’ are you s’pose to be?” she said, cocking her head to the side as she took in Gale’s robes and floppy, bright purple hat with twinkling stars sewn into it.
    Gale cleared his throat before defensively answering, “A wizard. Obviously.”

    Summary

    “Don’t be dense, you’re dressed as a wizard,” she says, rolling her eyes.

    Astarion short circuits for a moment. He didn’t choose this costume as a nod to Gale. That would be absurd. Wizards in the modern day don’t even wear robes. An old-timey wizard is a perfectly reasonable choice of costume!

    “Well, yes, but not for Gale,” Astarion protests, frowning.

    “Right. Because you know so many other wizards that totally influenced your costume.”

    -OR-

    Astarion attends a Halloween party. He and Gale are best friends, and nothing more. And he's completely okay with that. Really.

    Summary

    “Well, well, waiting up for me, darling?” Astarion’s voice is a purr, all charm and silk as he steps into view. He’s dressed immaculately, as always, his white curls catching the moonlight, lips curved in that infuriatingly knowing smile. But there’s a flicker of uncertainty in his eyes as they dart to the shirt lying beside Gale.

    Gale raises an eyebrow, holding up the shirt for Astarion to see. “I believe this is your handiwork?”

    Summary

    “I find that surprising considering how much you clearly abhor my dreadful clothes, as you described them.” Gale scoffs as he continues walking toward the breakroom. He pauses at the end of the bar when Astarion speaks.
    “Abhor? Well…I wouldn’t say that. They’re dreadful, that much is true.” the bartender tosses the rag over his shoulder, grabs a cleaning spray and walks forward until he’s side by side with Gale like cars passing on the street, “It’s dreadful-ly cute.”
