Summary
Lena was heading home from her day job as a software engineer when an llithid nautiloid kidnapped her. Luckily, she's a honey badger shifter (loosely based on those in Shelly Laurenston's Honey Badger Chronicles), and honey badgers are best known for punching up by taking on lions, hyenas, leopards, tigers, scorpions, and venomous snakes. Unluckily, her new companions might want to murder her for being an embarassingly annoying chaos gremlin.
This fic reads as a Baldur's Gate 3 playthrough with in-game dialog as a jumping-off point for lots of non-canon dialog and more freeform DnD elements. Why? Because I think it's funny. Your mileage may vary. And apologies for my awkward attempts at emotional depth and smut. Not like "it's so bad it's entertaining" but more like "Wow, this is bad. Please stop." And no, I don't know how to fix it, but I'm going to just keep chugging because plot ... and because I can.
Also, I'll sometimes reread a chapter and add/revise content more to my liking (there's an 'Edit' in the chapter summary).
20240704: in case I don't manage to finish this fic, I've added an epilogue.

Summary
A series of fluffy one-offs of post-BG3 stories as a follow-up to Badger at the Gate, wherein a honey badger shifter loosely based on the Shelly Laurenston's Honey Badger Chronicles gets kidnapped by the nautiloid. I suggest reading the main fic if you're not familiar with the sort of fuckery my !Tav, Lena, and her lIger shifer best friend, Edie, get up to. This will get updated when I get something stuck in my head like an earworm.
Also the occasional boring/perfunctory smut (I read it but can't write it).
I'll sometimes say to myself, "I can possibly make this chapter less crappy. Or I can make it worse. LET'S FIND OUT!"—those get a little 'Edit' in the summary.
Think of this as insurance in case I never manage to complete the main fic.
