Summary
Astarion is familiar with the controversy surrounding intimacy coordinators. Some believe their skills to be useless and unnecessary, and that their presence delays filming, distracts the cast, and disrupts the screenwriter and director’s intent.
But apparently Volo has faith that this man can provide some sort of worth to his film set, and Astarion feels inclined to agree, but only in the sense that Gale Dekarios, self-proclaimed most sought-after intimacy coordinator on the Sword Coast - is hot.

Summary
There are marks in the sand.
Strange, unfamiliar, weird marks disturbing the pristine white sand of his beach.
Astarion's tail thumps heavy in the shallow waves, sending ripples outward and scaring the crabs. His brow furrows as they scuttle away. There goes his easy snack.
All because some thing dares to trespass on his private little piece of paradise.

Summary
Based on a prompt from Amberstarry on Bloodweave Brainrot.
Karlach is burning up every single time they try to finally face Gortash, to finally bring him down. They cannot get close without nearly losing her and her despair is crushing to witness. Astarion is practical about this and, despite concerns from Gale, decides to take things into his own hands. He has select skills that no one else in the group does. Why not use them on his own terms for the first time in his life?
He will do anything for those he loves, absolutely anything. "Gods," he thought. "What am I doing?"Cowritten with BlackBone (Peanut on Discord Bloodweave Brainrot).
