Summary
Fate, destiny - none of it seems to matter much when you're under the yoke of an endless infernal debt. Finally free, Niamh sets out to begin a new life. She will find out just how much it matters when she's abducted by mindflayers and thrown into an uneasy alliance with a group of strangers.
Gale isn't a big believer in fate, but he does believe his death is close to hand when the illithid ship takes him. He'll learn just how wrong he is - and just how much life can offer - when he meets Niamh.
---
Slowburn friend-to-lovers romance, heaps and heaps of pining, eventual smut (check my oneshots if you'd like a sample) and a bonus minor Bloodpact on the side.
This fic is intended as a semi-novelization of the game, with some expansions to canon, some filler for plot holes, and a lot of Forgotten Realms/tabletop lore with a big focus on bards and artificers.

Summary
“By the hells, sex, my dear. A night of passion,” Astarion purrs, those predator’s eyes still watching you intently, gauging your reaction. You feel your cheeks blossom with heat, and you can’t help the slight gasp you inhale. You shouldn’t be surprised, Astarion has made no secret of his promiscuous nature, but he’s never mentioned it directly to you. Is he… offering?
***
A twist on the first night with Astarion after the tiefling party, in which Tav is... unexperienced in carnal pleasures, and Astarion proves a surprisingly gentle teacher.Bookmarked by JenSpartiates

Summary
"It's over. I'm done with it," Astarion's voice was a broken whisper, barely audible over his sobs. He was speaking to himself, affirming the end of a chapter steeped in torment. The sight was heartbreaking. Sad. He knelt there for a moment, as if trying to believe what had happened.
Then, rising from the ground and lifting his bloodshot eyes to meet Tav's, his expression twisted into something bitter and cold. "And I'm done with you," he spat out venomously.
Tav's step faltered, her hand still suspended in the air. Confusion and hurt welled up inside her. "What?" she stammered, her mind racing to make sense of his words. He was in shock, surely. The trauma, the bloodshed, it had to be too much.
But Astarion's voice cut through her thoughts, icy and trembling with a raw edge of emotion she had never heard before. "I would say good luck out there, but honestly?" His gaze was piercing, unyielding. "I hope you die." The words slithered out like a curse, each syllable dripping with a venom that chilled her to the bone.
Astarion narrowed his eyes, leaned towards her and whispered ominously, only to her. “Screaming.”
