Let my touch heal the scars of your soul by grazimesmo

Summary
No longer a slave, no longer a puppet under his master’s command, Astarion at last had tasted freedom. And with that freedom he claimed the desires that had burned within him for so long: to live without fear, to choose his own path, and above all, to walk beneath the sun – with a little help from Gale.
And yet…
Yet, even after all he had conquered, something remained beyond his grasp, something Astarion had never truly claimed: his own body. Freedom had given him the sun, the agency, the right to choose, but it had not given him comfort in his own skin. The thought of touch still unsettled him; the brush of another’s hand, the intimacy of a kiss... Anything could summon shadows of shame, leaving him feeling tainted, dirty, unworthy.
But truth was, he longed for more.OR
Astarion wants to reclaim his sexuality, and Gale offers him an agreement that is going to change both of their lives.

Summary
Astarion knows Gale has a type: strong women, virtuous and friendly people, nice people…
He also knows he is none of that. Slippery, elusive, morally gray? Sure. But good? He doesn’t know how to be that.
None of it matters though, because if there’s one thing Astarion can do, is fake it. -

Summary
“I call upon every spirit departed and nearly-departed, the damned and the divine, those at peace and those in torment—hear me! I seek Gale Dekarios, a wizard and Chosen to the Mother of Magic, a hero to the Sword Coast, a man whose fate it was to be sacrificed upon the alter of devotion.”
Astarion visits the Mystic Carrion for a séance in the hopes of contacting what’s left of Gale’s soul. The appointment leaves him haunted.

The Greatest of Thieves (couldn't take my love away) by grazimesmo

Summary
Forced together on a world-saving mission, Gale and Astarion's animosity burns until a brush with death turns rivalry into quiet devotion when Astarion goes down during a perilous mission and Gale takes on the weight of his recovery. As ambitions tempt their souls and desires complicates matters, they fight the Cult of the Absolute, all the while trying to confront the chaos within themselves.
A kiss before the final battle shakes the very fabric of their fragile friendship, and deciding to live together afterwards only heightens the tensions — Gale fears hurting Astarion, and Astarion feels unwanted, stranded in a home that isn’t truly his.
Love, slow and aching, grows between the cracks, and in the end, it's not fate that will keep them together, but the choice to stay.

Summary
Astarion tries to get along with Tara. Truly, he does—for Gale's sake if nothing else—but what can he do when the stuck-up tressym hates his guts?
He doesn't expect anything as deep as friendship, but surely two fully grown sentient creatures can manage a cordial enough relationship to keep the peace.
-OR-
Astarion returns with Gale to Waterdeep, and Tara is less than pleased.

Summary
Like most of Gale’s problems since the Nautiloid, this whole mess is Tav’s fault. He doesn’t know exactly what Tav told Astarion when Gale was out of the room, but he trusts that they didn’t betray his confidence. Probably.
Whatever it is has made Astarion act even stranger than normal and it is threatening Gale’s very carefully curated compartmentalization of his feelings for the man.

Summary
Gale Dekarios is a four-time Formula 1 World Champion at the top of his game, until he's involved in a crash that nearly ends his life as well as his career. Two years later, he's invited back to the sport by his old race engineer Aumar Elminster, now the Team Principal of the newly reformed Weave Racing. The only catch? His new teammate is a rich, spoiled daddy's boy who represents everything Gale hates about the sport.
Astarion Ancunin is an F1 rookie, with only one season under his belt. As one of the sport's most promising talents, he's thrilled when he's invited to be part of the renowned Weave Racing team. The only catch? His new teammate is a failed relic who expects Astarion to be his Number 2 driver.
Now, the two unwilling colleagues will need to learn to work together or watch both their careers go up in flames.
