    Summary

    Lionel had never once been in any of Samaritan's simulations, and Root never, ever died in them. But Root was dead and Lionel was here, ergo this was real.

    Summary

    The car whines when Astarion accelerates, a thumping under his feet and center console. The dashboard rattles, teeth in a skeleton, even the steering wheel keening like a death knell. Every time he brakes, something screams. He can't smell smoke, but he can feel heat pouring from the vents, sweating through his nightclothes. There's a dial from hot to cold—he spins it and feels nothing change.

    When he presses its gas, the car goes forward. When he brakes, it stops.

    He keeps driving.

    Astarion escapes Cazador with the clothes on his back, a wad of stolen cash, and a car that's sat abandoned in a garage for thirty years.

    There's a metaphor in that, perhaps.

    Or, sometimes recovery isn't linear and you have to go hide under a desk about it.

    Summary

    Wyll Ravengard is a journalist, investigating a medical corporation promising a solution to the organ donor waiting list. Wyll schedules an interview with one of the vampire spawn acting as a living donor for Cania Innovations, trying to puzzle out if this is exploitation or altruism.

    Astarion Ancunín has been traded to a new master, one determined to wring all potential profit out of the 7,000 spawn he has acquired.

    That was then? Now? Now they’re roommates.

    Summary

    Reconciliation is a process that takes time. Sometimes not quite as much time as you'd think.

    There's an emotional throughline of developing character dynamics over the course of the series, but I've written the vast majority of the stories to be self-contained plot-wise. There's no required reading order if you want to jump around to ones that catch your interest, though I do recommend starting with the first one for background.
