What could go wrong?

Summary
Zale Wight typically wasn't one for traveling alone, but needing inspiration for their novel and winning a free trip overseas to the Sword Coast would be enough to sway anyone. They didn't expect to find inspiration in a cute tour guide.

Summary
In hindsight, destroying her apartment probably hadn’t been the best method to show Mystra his love.

As their little cat hearts grow closer, Gale is forced to confront whether he was truly as bad of a cat as Mystra always told him.

Summary
Two broken people have no intention of mending each other. They just pick up those imperfect debris and then protect them carefully.
While busy fighting in a world war, Lithlyn was whisked away to another world by a Mind Flayer's Nautiloid. Those damn tentacled monsters even shoved a Mind Flayer tadpole into her head.
To avoid turning into a hideous purple octopus, Lithlyn embarked on a journey to seek a cure, and somehow collected a group of companions who shared her affliction but harbored their own agendas and secrets.
However, Lithlyn had no room to judge them, for the secrets she kept were far greater than theirs...There will be a happy ending.
Hint: There is a very exaggerated setting about Lithlyn. If you can't accept it, please don't force it.

Summary
You remember him the way he was when you met, the way you watched him grow up. Your teenage years weren’t beautiful the way they’re supposed to be. You were awkward in your own body, thick and clumsy and unsure. Wyll, however, was always graceful. His limbs lengthened, his voice deepened, and all of it seemed to happen so smoothly, at just the right time. He was pretty and he was perfect. Neat and tidy next to your messy tangle of string.
But you’ve knitted yourself together over the years, and he’s frayed a bit. Now you’re sitting on a beach together, making each other laugh. Feeling comfortable, impossibly so, even as your heart sits high in your throat. Feeling seen and understood. Feeling…a lot of things. Too many, more than you can identify.
You find yourself wondering how it feels to be kissed kindly, by someone who laughs at your jokes and knows things about your father and thinks you’re smart. By someone who’s thought about it before, for all that it may have been years ago.
…
Really, what’s the worst that could happen?

Summary
Silvie is the heiress to Bahal Family Chemical, a conglomerate that built their wealth from warfare and environmental disasters, and is being groomed into the ruthless practices of heading a legacy: coverups, blackmailing, and bribing. After she sustains a head injury, she becomes disaffected from her empty life and psychopathic father.
Astarion has been a sex worker and aspiring gold digger since escaping his abusive stepfather Cazador decades earlier. Despite his charm, he's been unable to find anyone willing to put a ring on his finger and support him indefinitely, but he thinks that may be changing after he finds a distraught, disgustingly rich woman in need of companionship.
As they learn to love each other, the evils of their fathers loom large over their heads. Father Bahal invested too much time and money - and let loose too many damning secrets - into his daughter for her to turn away from the business, especially in the wake of a federal investigation into their crimes.
Meanwhile, an aging Cazador, off his court mandated medication, finds Astarion again and is convinced that he is the key to achieving eternal life.

Summary
This is an older one that I'll upload a chapter a day for. It sits unfinished, yet finished. I will not be picking it back up. I was not in a space of healing when I wrote this. This is pure chaos.
I apologize for any errors writing these characters - my Tav and her personality is the only character that belongs to me. This tale is going to start at the night you discover Astarion is a vampire (spawn). Also these heathens sleep in tents instead of out in the open by a lit fire. The story line will probably change up a bit from the game.
And just a reminder, this sits unedited. So there may be typos and spelling errors.
There are a lot of sexually charged moments in the story. Comparing to The Pale Elf, this is not one of my stronger works. But people still come back to read it.
In this playthrough, Onasha and Astarion conquered the elder brain and took over the world together. Onasha was my first full release character, and sparked the desire to write for the first time in years.

Summary
Raphael, arguably the most accomplished player on the Lanceboard of Life, failed to anticipate that he would be unable to fully master the Crown of Karsus without Elynn, who channels the Karsite Weave better than him.
Having escaped from Raphael's manipulative clutches, she wants nothing more than a life with Astarion, who is mortal like her.Raphael has given her an ultimatum if she doesn't agree to stand by his side and help him realise his plans for world domination: She is to become queen alongside Raphael; otherwise, a city in Faerûn will be destroyed every new tenday.
Elynn knows she must challenge and defeat Raphael, but until the Githyanki forces arrive to help with the upcoming war, all there is to do is hope.
She knows that until then at least one city will fall.
Elynn must not give up, because if Raphael succeeds, mortals and gods alike will be damned. Elynn is hope personified. If she succumbs to his plan to make her immortal, the world's hope will be lost.
She doesn't have much time to prepare mentally, psychologically and magically for the fight of her life.Series

Summary

So good even that she has a tiny little thing—okay, that is a lie, the thing is monumental—she'd like to discuss with Karlach this evening, if only the tiefling would stop distracting her, that'd be great.

Summary
A slow-burn, emotional and sensual exploration of Astarion and my asexual-demi paladin’s relationship.
Jin never expected a pale, sharp-smiled vampire to unravel him.
Astarion never expected a quiet, soft-spoken paladin to challenge him in ways he hadn’t imagined.
What begins as irritation and reluctant trust soon turns into fascination that pulls them together in the quiet hours of the night. When Jin discovers Astarion’s secret, he finds himself awakening to feelings he’s never understood before.
Astarion, starved for blood and affection, finds himself wanting more than just a taste.
This is a story about learning trust the hard way, craving touch for the first time, and finding something tender in the dark. -
