Summary
Violet ‘Vi’ Lanes, ex-con and recovering addict, hasn’t fucked anything up in four whole years. Four years of sobriety, staying in her lane, and running the kitchen at Atlas, a passion project to help recovering addicts and ex-cons get back on their feet started by her and a yordle named Professor Cecil B. Heimerdinger.
Caitlyn Kiramman, recovering alcoholic and Piltover’s Party Princess, had an awful secret. An unfortunate accident nearly killed her and another person. Now, nine years later she was still recovering. Her best friend, and older brother figure, found out about Atlas through his long time lab partner and boyfriend. Their old professor had opened a restaurant to help ex-addicts get back on their feet. Heimerdinger almost immediately accepted Caitlyn’s application to be a waitress.
This fic has some pretty heavy topics, some smut, and graphic descriptions of kitchen work.

Summary
“Your car.” Powder said, a thoughtful pout to her face. Her eyebrows raised slightly. “If you make my sister dateable, I’ll help you finish that car.”
Caitlyn stared back at her, ears burning, at the absolutely absurd request. No one, no one on this green earth, could make the infamous disaster that was Powder’s sister dateable. It was absolutely ridiculous to think anyone would want to date the girl who insisted her birth name was Violence no matter how anyone prettied her up. It was a doomed project and she should say as much.
“You got a deal,” she said instead.Teen!Caitvi but make it a 00’s romcom

Summary
“Who better to stand in my stead, to stand as the Crown,” Viserys raises his hands, like he’s about to shock them all with his wisdom, “Than its trueborn heir.”
Rhaenyra preens at the praise, the recognition. “Thank you, Father.”
“And the Queen.”
The smile drops from her face.
OR
[Post-1x06] The King sends Rhaenyra and Alicent to strengthen ties with the North. Alicent lasts two days with a chill that reaches her bones; and then she finds a solution.

Summary
It started as all the stories told: a mood-plummeting lethargy, an inevitable hunger for insane combinations of foodstuffs, and abrupt nausea triggered by any and all movement, both idle and sudden. But mostly the nausea.
Isobel, of course, also fell prey to ignorance. Or perhaps it was denial.
She, of all people, had no reason whatsoever to believe she was with child.

Summary
Temporarily washed out of her gith military academy after a series of fights, Lae'zel accepts a 'voluntary' transfer to the nearby public high school, there she encounters what seems like the same story told in different tongues, and again ends up a pariah, with one difference. As a social outcast herself, Shadowheart finds herself strangely drawn to the new girl who seems to carry the same bitter loneliness she does.

Summary
“I believe in fate, you know.” She glanced at Lae’zel’s face. “There’s a concept - some Asian one - where two people are connected by a red thread. Regardless of time, location or whatever, they will always find each other.”
A seagull cawed overhead.
“It’s silly, but it just sounds romantic?” She sighed, dreamily. “In every lifetime as well. It sounds a bit like us, no?”

Summary
((SPOILERS THROUGH ACT 3))
“It would seem our guardians are sloppy,” Shadowheart snarled, “since you have the energy to still cast spells.”
The blade withdrew, and the prisoner’s breathing slowed - her blood, just as red and warm as Shadowheart’s own, pooled beneath her and slowly dripped off of the table onto the purple marble floor.
“Your name,” Shadowheart snapped again.
The prisoner hesitated.
“Lae’zel,” she said.
--
Shadowheart's triumphant return with the Githyanki artefact is muted by a lukewarm reception - in her absence, apparently, the cloister had taken heavy losses from an apparent Githyanki assault. When the acolytes capture a Githyanki, they assign Shadowheart with ripping the truth from her lips.
But something's wrong. The Githyanki seems... familiar, somehow. The Githyanki seems to know her in a way that's impossible - in a way that she can't remember being true.

Summary
Laudna is a children's librarian who loves doing story time, but unfortunately the kids find her more scary-scary than fun-scary. So it's very rare for her to be able to do that.
Imogen runs an outdoor school where schools in Jrusar send grades of children to learn about nature and get some learning done outside of a traditional classroom. Finding someone to lead a story time with the kids has been a bit difficult, so Imogen reaches out to the local public library.
This is a modern AU, so they don't have magic per se. This is generally going to be from Laudna's perspective, with a lil Imogen sprinkled in for flavour. I'll add more tags and characters as they become relevant.

Summary
After a particularly perilous fight that leaves Shadowheart far too close to death for comfort, she comes to a decision.
An idiotic, unthinkably painful decision, but a path forward, nonetheless.
She needs to become better at physical combat, fast.
And, fortunately or unfortunately, she has recently made a tentative 'truce' with an obnoxious yet admittedly adept Gith Warrior who for some ungodly reason seems to always erect her tent right across from her own.
Well. Let's see if Githyanki can be trusted on their word. Or, even better...coerced into a mutually beneficial arrangement. She's certain there's something she could offer the Gith. Twist to her advantage. If this could also make Lae'zel more bearable, all the better for her.
Lady of Sorrows guide her. How badly could this go?

hate burns hot (and loss is not divine) by Tagrenine
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)

Summary
Shadowheart hates her. Yet, she can't take her eyes off of her when she is covered in the viscera of their enemies. The group has a long journey ahead of them to rid themselves of the parasites and she wants to complete her mission. How long can she last as she's torn between hate and the inevitable fall?
This is a retelling of BG3 from Shadowheart's Origin and is a SLOW burn with plenty of hate sex. I will try to get out about a chapter a week depending on my schedule as I'm a med student. My one wish is that we had a more reliable Githyanki dictionary. I'm still playing through SH's origin story and I like it more than Tav's. Shae'zel have been occupying my thoughts night and day, so I needed to write it out. I'll come up with a better summary eventually!

“Astarion. A word.”
The vampire spawn shifted, looking interested. Gingerly, he lowered himself next to Tav by the fire, and nodded, gesturing for Tav to speak.
“You are good at masterminding plans. I need to formulate a plan where Shadowheart and Lae’zel will forcibly need to get along. I reckon they would benefit from a little co-operation.”

Summary
Six years after the war’s beginning, Vlaakith falls to Orpheus's forces. Lae’zel is gravely injured during the last battle at Tu’narath. She awakens in Faerûn once again: this time in the safety of Shadowheart’s cottage, where she is commanded to stay until her wounds heal. Initially frustrated by this new temporary station, she finds there is much to discover and rediscover with Shadowheart, about them, and about herself; there is peace to be found, and choices to be made, in a life that is less determinate than they'd thought.

Summary
"Not that you ever need a reason, Shadowheart," Wyll begins warmly.
Oh, no.
"But...it's been ten years. What brings you back to Baldur's Gate?"
Ten years since the thrice-damned tadpoles and she can still feel Lae'zel's smirk like a physical presence. Shadowheart sighs.
"If you must know," she says. "Someone has stolen a priceless artifact from the githyanki."
