Why one small American town won’t stop stoning its residents to death by Charlotte_Stant for sophiahelix
Fandoms: The Lottery - Shirley Jackson, The New Yorker RPF
24 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
The picturesque village of Buell, Maine is one of the last in the United States to continue the tradition of the “harvest” or “prosperity” lottery. Its residents insist the lottery makes them stronger, even as condemnation from outsiders grows.

Summary
His favorite time ever to finger Gale is right after sex. When he’s all loose and still wet, when that furled little hole is beautifully stretched out and dripping with Astarion’s come. He loves the way Gale tenses up deliciously around his fingers, the way his walls contract uncontrollably as he struggles to maintain his composure.
Or; Astarion ponders the love he shares with his husband, and brings him to his limits.

Summary
“Sh-shut up.”
“My loquacious darling, at a loss for words? Just moments ago you were doing so well. Can you still hold it for me, Gale? You only have 13 pages left, you’re so close.”

Summary
“If you don’t use your magic on me,” said Astarion, one of his hands releasing its grasp on Gale’s wrists to snake towards the front of his torso, tracing gently along his distended lower belly. “Then I’m going to have to assume you want this.”
Astarion’s hand and hips went still, and he became silent for a moment, as though waiting to see whether Gale would move to fight him off – whether Gale’s struggle against him had been a genuine one, or whether there was a strange, secret part of Gale that might just be enjoying this just as much as Astarion was. And for the briefest of moments, Gale did consider using a spell to propel Astarion away from him; it would be so much simpler, in some ways, to put a halt to whatever madness they were currently engaged in, and to happily untie his remaining laces and seek the relief he’d spent the last several hours dying for.
Instead, however, what Gale chose to do was to cross his legs tightly in an undignified, last-ditch effort to hold back what he now knew to be inevitable, press himself back into Astarion, and let out a broken, high-pitched “please.”

Summary
These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.

Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.- Language:

Summary
Astarion doesn't know how to ask for what he wants. Gale doesn't know what to offer. Together, they figure it out.
this takes place at some point before the last section/+i of my other fic "cutting through the cracks of the concrete" but this can generally be read as its own post-game thing. individual chapters will include any additional content notes as needed!

Summary
“You looking for me?” Skip asks, blinking one eye at a time. Norman’s lip curls a bit.
“Heard you wanted advice,” Norman says stiffly. “Some mission something. New host or whatever.”
“I do,” Skip says. He leans, a little unsteady on the feet of this guy, and throws their arms around Norman pointedly to guide him to the escape pod that’s supposedly serving as his room. “Man, am I glad you’re here.”
He’s taller than Norman. That’s another thing he decides to focus on, instead of the cologne that he’s been missing for a few weeks drifting over his face.
-
or: Skip and Norman are the worst, and I mean the WORST, communicators in the galaxy. Also, slug sex is absolutely a loose tooth, and it just might fix everything. It...might just take a while for the fixes to happen.

The guy on the bed has pink hair, and he isn’t trying to get up. He’s just watching Norman with concerned eyes, and he pulls his friend back onto the bed with him. His eyes never leave Norman’s—
Hands.
There is a hand on his shoulder, and Norman thinks he’s going to die, and if he’s going to die, he might as well make it on his own damn terms.

as the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn by tuffgreg for kitten_combatant
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)

Tags
Summary
Astarion's interest in soft, wealthy, foolish Gale of Waterdeep is entirely practical: make Gale want to keep Astarion safe, no matter what Astarion has to trade away to do it. Gale of Waterdeep's needs are far less carnal than Astarion expects. Somehow that only makes it more complicated.
Or: Astarion underestimates Gale's willingness to let Astarion play pretend at being a vampire lord.
(Begins in Act 1 and speedruns through post-game. Mind the tags! There will be chapter-specific tags in the notes. The Cazador mentions are fairly frequent throughout.)

Luo Binghe rolls to his back, looking up at their bed’s canopy. “When you invited me to sit in your carriage... that was you?”
“Yes,” Shen Qingqiu says warily.
“I was fourteen,” Luo Binghe says. “But if Shen Qinqgiu’s body wasn’t your own, how old were you?”

Disability and Caregiving in Dungeon Meshi by litbynosun
Fandoms: ダンジョン飯 | Dungeon Meshi | Delicious in Dungeon
19 Jul 2024
Tags
Summary
A meta essay examining disability and caregiving in Dungeon Meshi, focusing primarily on Mithrun and the desire-eating condition. Since Dungeon Meshi is very focused on survival and the logistics of all the small maintenance activities (like eating, sleeping, bathing, etc), it also has interesting things to say about people who can't do that.

Summary
The guy who showed up before service was some young guy in his early twenties, a gym rat with neatly coiffed blond hair.
“Does an Italian DILF work here?” He motioned above Carmy’s hand with a flat hand. “Yea high, super blue eyes?”
It took Carmy embarrassingly long to catch up. He just frowned, chugging until— Christ, he meant Richie. Carmy said the first thing that came to mind.
“He’s Polish.”

Summary
After staging at that place and hearing the way they talked about Carmy (fucking Carmen), Richie was pretty proud of him, maybe for the first time ever. Proud of himself, too. He kind of wanted to tell them. Yo, you like his food? I’ve been fooling around with him for like ten years. Fucked him in the ass once, too. He’s the James Beard of whining like a bitch when he nuts.

Summary
It’s the worst possible thing, especially here and now, walking in the ghost of Mikey’s footsteps, seeing him everywhere, feeling him everywhere. The prodigal baby brother, home at last, playing the role but in no way filling it. Carmy’s presence here only makes Mikey’s absence clearer. He knows it; everybody knows it.
It’s all Carmy should be thinking about. It’s all any sane person would be thinking about. Instead, he watches a bead of sweat snake down the back of Richie’s neck as he pulls up disintegrating tile in the bathroom of the restaurant.

Summary
Carmen pretends like he’s so fucking complicated with the secretive little notebooks, the rippling muscles, the big sad blue eyes, but Richie knows him – Richie has always known him – so he gets a fist twisted into Carmy’s hair and presses his cheek into the tile and makes it easy.

I’ve lost my mind, Daniel thinks, still lavishing kisses to the chest of the creature that killed him. He says the next part out loud: “I fucking hate you. And you hate me. So something is making us do this.”
“I don’t hate you,” Armand pants. “You mean nothing to me. Don't stop.”

Summary
“Oh,” Astarion breathes, eyes drooping into glassy little crescents. Well, if this is how he dies, Astarion thinks, this is how he dies. A shame that he’ll never get to plunge a stake through Cazador’s chest. “Death is so beautiful.”
“...Precisely how much of this spider’s blood did you consume?” Gale asks, his hands brushing Astarion’s hair off his soaked forehead. The touch makes the unbearable, painful heat in his body squeeze around him like a heavy chain. “You’re scorching. You could give Karlach a run for all her gold.”

Summary
People, it turns out, are horny for depression. Or maybe it’s that people are horny for depressed gods. Or maybe enduring betrayal on a literally cosmic scale makes people hotter. Or maybe the death drive is real, and the many-tongued abyss’s breath is still thick in your hair, and it makes everyone want to move closer and take a big, deep whiff. Or maybe you’re God, and they’re scared.
Or: John Gaius meets his daughter, remembers the women he left behind, and deals poorly with being the male god of a universe in which the divine is essentially feminine.
