Summary
Father Anders leads a devout but lonely life, busy with both his Chantry duties and helping the poor in his clinic in Darktown. His life changes when Garrett Hawke, the handsome heir to the Amell family, returns to Kirkwall, and Anders is caught fast between his faith and his desires. This is a lovingly crafted, perfectly respectable BDSM porn romance, and becomes increasingly explicit with each chapter. Modern AU, Chantry lore mixed with Catholicism.

Summary
For the kink meme prompt:
Josephine holds an Orlesian-style ball at Skyhold and everyone is to attend masked and out of uniform. Trevelyan decides that this is the perfect time to blow off some steam without giving anyone reason to brag about having slept with the Herald of Andraste, so she finds a partner for some masked, inebriated, anonymous sex.
Unfortunately, she didn't realize that her stressed out, buttoned-down Commander had the same idea...

Summary
“I am not eager to throw myself upon another altar for naught but scraps in return.” Gale steels himself with a deep breath. He speaks his peace to the wilds and the cosmos rather than his lover's face. “And yet. Marble skin, silver tongue... eyes like Moonsea rubies. Oh, you cast a fine altar, Astarion.”
With two discerning appetites, a deal to keep each other fed is the one thing that ties Astarion and Gale together. But the proverbial collar slips all too easily around Gale's throat, the lead feels right in Astarion's unchained hands, and both men think they've bested the other in a game neither should be playing.
In any case. As the greats say in lanceboard: there is no shame in losing to a stronger foe.

Summary
“Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”
She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.
“And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.
Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”
Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”
He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.
“Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”
-
Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

Astarion's Nice, Simple Plan That Fell Apart by UsuallyDyingInside
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
12 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
Astarion had a plan. A nice, simple plan: seduce Tav, sleep with her, manipulate her feelings so she'd never turn on him.
All she had to do was fall for it.
And all he had to do was not fall for her.Which is where his nice, simple plan fell apart.

Exploring Astarion's POV throughout the game while romancing Dark Urge/Tav. Canon is followed in most cases, including with lines of dialogue from the game, but Act 2 and 3 break off from canon a few times in fun ways.Content warnings are listed ahead of the more intense chapters. Overall this fic (like the game) explores what healing from abuse looks like and has a lot of references to those themes.

Ambrosia (or: How Gale Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb) by mercurial_cool
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)

Summary
“Why does your blood smell so strange?”
The question startled Gale, who looked up from where he sat cross-legged in front of his tent, organizing his scrolls in preparation for their upcoming “visit” to the goblin camp. He’d given Astarion a wide berth since the revelation of his vampiric condition a few days earlier, so he was surprised to see the pale elf looming over him now, a peculiar expression on his face.
“You know,” Gale offered with a smile, “in my extensive journeys across manifold realms, I do believe that is not a question that I’ve ever been asked before. I honestly can’t decide whether or not I should be offended.”
-
Of the many side effects Gale has faced as a result of his whole “being physical host to an imminently destructive magical orb” problem, he somehow never anticipated his blood now apparently smelling irresistible to vampires (or at least, one particular vampire) to be one of them.
