    Summary

    Three commands has Astarion broken, and now the fourth with a rapier through his gut and crossbow to his skull. Centuries he's wanted to be free—well, here it is. Dirt under his nails and blood behind his fangs. He's free. Isn't he fucking satisfied?

    Astarion has not been a person in two hundred years. His journey to become one does not start off well.

    Summary

    Just four days after pulling himself from the wreck of the Nautiloid, Wyll returns to his tent to find his recent acquaintance Astarion--charming cad, charlatan, and secret vampire spawn--naked in his bedroll.

    The evening gets worse from there.

    Summary

    As more and more people join the party – all of them adventurers of some repute or renown – Astarion becomes all that more disposable in comparison. He endeavors to keep up or be left behind. (Because of course they will leave him behind. Right?) AKA: Act 1 Astarion’s race from a true level one character to team rogue and the rest of the team's reactions to that.

    Summary

    So here he is: a monster in the wilderness, a shadow crawling in the sun, trying desperately to be more than his nature. Than the terrified creature two centuries of torment shaped him into.

    (Or Astarion reclaims his personhood, one fraught, determined step at a time. And with a little help along the way.)

    Summary

    Karlach smiles at him as the sun begins to set, her eyes softening around the corners, a nervous look flickering over her features. And Astarion is already expecting what comes next, but it still feels like shards of ice blooming behind his ribs.

    “Do you think I can sleep in your tent tonight? Now that I can’t hurt you or set the damn thing on fire.” She asks with a breathy chuckle, an uncharacteristic anxiety making her shift on her feet, her bottom lip caught under her teeth. He has no disillusions on what her words could mean. She’s not likely looking to do much sleeping when she is free to touch him now.

     

    (Or, Karlach can freely touch the people she loves now. Astarion makes a few wrong assumptions.)
