Summary
If you were to show Luciana her ability scores, she’d lament even more that she was raised in a community cut off from the Weave, because it’s painfully obvious that she should have been a wizard. She’d be insulted by the abysmal WIS score, think on it, and then begrudgingly agree. She’d laugh at the CHA score, assuming it must be a mistake. After puzzling over it, she’d decide that lacking any sort of ‘EMP’ score for empathy in the game, high CHA had been the easiest way to represent how she seems to be able to make people feel listened to. Because she has far too much stage fright for actual charisma.
Unfortunately for everyone including her, Luciana doesn’t know she’s in a game, and on the day she decides she should get one free murder as a treat, the realms seem to have conspired to land her on the biggest stage imaginable. She’d be mad, except her Patron did promise her all and everything and forever. She’s not sure she wants it anymore, because as it turns out, the world contains a lot more suffering than her sheltered upbringing prepared her for.
Or:
The horniest, most violent, and most self-indulgent playthrough I could muster, because why the fuck not. Enjoy. -

Why did Lae’zel return here? Simply because Shadowheart said she thought herself a different person since meeting Lae’zel, and the shattered pieces of her yearned for something?

Summary
In 1797, Captain Elias Bouchard set sail from London in command of three ships, promising to return with incalculable riches for crown and country. A year later, the ships have vanished. The islands of the Magnus Archipelago have swallowed all traces of survivors and riches alike.
Gwendolyn Bouchard is the last person who should be sent on the rescue mission to find her uncle's lost ships. Unfortunately for everyone, she has a medical degree and a family keen to put an ocean between her and them. Gwen gets assigned to Lena Kelley's ship as they set out on Captain Bouchard's trail, and Gwen finds herself almost as unprepared to live alongside common sailors as she is to deal with the supernatural dangers that await them.
The islands are awake. The islands are hungry. And they're not very sensitive to the fact that Gwen is kind of falling in love with her most irritating shipmate.

Summary
Lae’zel is seven and a half hours into her shift when the customer’s voice thunders through her headset: “GOOD MORROW, SERVICE WORKER. I HAVE FOR YOU A REQUEST IN NEED OF SWIFT FULFILLMENT.”
Briefly muting her mic, Lae’zel unleashes a torrent of language foul enough to raise the hackles of a red dragon. (Luckily, none of her coworkers speak a lick of gith.) “Lower your volume,” she commands. “...Please,” she adds grudgingly. Her manager’s already written her up twice for ‘inappropriately combative behavior.’
-------------------------
Modern AU. Lae'zel and Shadowheart, employees at Fantasy McDonald's, contend with an aggravating customer: Dame Aylin.

Summary
When he looks at you again, you almost mistake the look on his face for sincerity. “I may be a heathen, sweetheart, but I think I know exactly what you need.”
“Oh?” You almost smile. “And what do I need, Astarion?”
“A change of faith.”
You laugh lightly at that. “And which god do you propose I worship instead?”
“Not a god,” he says, with that wicked smile that tempted so many people to their graves. You understand them all now.
//
Or, Tav falls first and falls harder, and Astarion doesn't fall at all.

Summary
After the end of the end of the world, Jon and Martin end up in the same place the Entities do—which is to say, everywhere. The problem is, they’ve never been everywhere before, and it’s not as easy as it looks. While they would very much like to help the innumerable worlds that they doomed to the predation of the Dread Powers, they don’t have much practice at influencing reality through spooky books, monsters, or spacetime manipulation. That doesn’t mean they don’t try their best.
Elsewhere, in one of these innumerable worlds, Jon finds a book. It tells him to fall in love, and also, to invest in a cement mixer.

Summary
Months after the Prentiss attack, Martin Blackwood is having a bad day.
Relationships among his coworkers have fallen apart, their boss is stalking them, and no one can quite shake the feeling that danger is still close by. Martin's doing his best to hold everyone together, but tea and sympathy aren't working like they used to. The sole bright spot is that it's much easier to have a crush on Jon now that he's decided Martin isn't a murderer. Mostly, though, Martin's just glad to make it through the day...
...until he wakes up and has to live the same bad day all over again.
Martin finds himself caught in a loop, reliving the 19th November over and over again, struggling to understand why this is happening and what he has to do to get out. His dear coworker Sasha is acting very strange, spiders keep crawling over everything, and at the center of it all is a man with long, sharp hands, who might be to blame... or might be the key to escaping all of this.
(Or: Michael, Not-Sasha, and Annabelle have a three-sided tug-of-war over Martin's brain, while Martin hooks up with the guy who got him into this mess and keeps trying to Fifty-First-Dates his boss.)
