Summary
“What's he like?” she asks. “Your wizard?”
He seems to think about it for a moment.
“Arrogant,” he finally says. “Insufferably clever. He claimed he could have been Mystra's Chosen, but he turned her down.”
The group (sans Tav) meet Astarion by the beach. They don't meet Gale. If you ask Astarion, that just means they have to look harder.

Summary
In hindsight, destroying her apartment probably hadn’t been the best method to show Mystra his love.
Cast from Mystra’s apartment after his destructive folly, Gale’s rehoming results in him joining a cat-filled household where he meets vitriolic Astarion, a rescue from the now defunct Szarr’s Splendid Pets breeders.
As their little cat hearts grow closer, Gale is forced to confront whether he was truly as bad of a cat as Mystra always told him.

The Clarity of Death by galedikarios

Summary
Astarion had died. A dreadfully boring affair for the vampire, in theory. Yet, this death wasn't the expected blink of darkness turning to a swift revival. Nor did he finally descend to the Hells that most certainly awaited his tormented soul.
This death had the vampire plagued in a strange state of purgatory. He was a ghost, watching memory after memory, visions of the past and of strange events that never happened.
But while most of them made little sense to the vampire, there was one constant throughout it all... Gale.
Gale, that verbose fool of a man. Astarion's chosen target for protection should the others or anyone else turn against him.
In every vision, Gale was there, falling for his trap and becoming enamoured by the vampire. The wizard was clearly smitten—ever helpful, defending Astarion, and keeping his secrets close. And what confused Astarion most of all, so was seeing himself return the sentiment. Watching himself fall in love with the blattering human just as the human clearly fell for him too.
But these were just the deranged dreams of a dying mind. They couldn't possibly be real.
...Right?

Summary
Astarion was bored.
Since breaking free of his former master’s chains, life had become monotonous. While glad he was no longer under the bastard’s control, he hadn’t realized just how dull and repetitive freedom could be.
Most nights passed uneventfully, with hunting, swimming and eating, then he would rest during the day; repeating the same cycle over and over again.
Then a human dropped into his life and everything changed.

Summary
Astarion wants to have the powerful (and attractive) wizard, Gale on his side when he faces Cazador, but Gale has had enough of shallow sex and Astarion's defensive walls. When the bard at the tavern they're staying at fails to show, Gale maneuvers Astarion to step in to entertain the crowd in the guise of having a vampire schtick. Astarion reveals more of himself than he intends and is surprised to find acceptance and affection despite his dark past.
Starts dark but there's fluff, feels, and medium spice smut to look forward to on your way to a happy ending.

Summary
Jaheira has a great idea: an adventure series with romance! Everyone absolutely loves those cheesy romance shorts on social media and those silly romances with the girl going home blah blah!
The only problem is her star player, Astarion and his soulless acting with any romantic prospect...
Until she sees him with Gale, that is...They might have found the solution to making "Baldur's Gate: Absolute Rising" after all...

Summary
"If you'd be so kind as to allow me to leave, I will be out of your very lovely hair in a moment! I am terribly sorry to have entered your territory," the startled man said as he began to drift backwards. This human was certainly one of the more intelligent ones as he knew to never turn his back on a predator. "You're quite the extraordinary and formidable being, aren't you?"
Oh? Who knew a human could have such taste…
Astarion eased only slightly at the compliments. "Extraordinary and formidable? Anything in particular catch your interest?" he replied back in a playful, haughty tone before he twirled around horizontally in the water to display his form. "Perhaps my magnificent tail fins or stripes are to your liking?"
Astarion is a lonely merman in the vast deep who stumbles upon a human who is somehow much further down than he should be. Despite his wariness of humans, his curiosity has him follow the verbose Professor Gale who teaches him more about the world above. Navigating a budding friendship can be a challenge when your new friend is so intriguing though.

Summary
Geir Dagrsson knows three things: cattle die, kinsmen die, but the one thing that doesn’t is a man’s deeds. He just didn’t expect his greatest one to be marrying the brat prince of East Anglia, and worst of all, the son of one of his father’s killers: a Saxon.
Ӕlfstan, son of Cadwallon, loathes the heathens plaguing their lands. When he is sold off in marriage to one, he will do whatever it takes to free himself from the man, his father’s wishes be damned. The Viking he is promised to also proves to be just as irritating as he expected.
Little do they both know, sinister forces are looking to sow more discord between the denizens of East Anglia, with Geir and Ӕlfstan at the centre of it all.

Summary
Several months had passed since Gale’s marriage to Mystra ended, and the idea of diving back into the dating world held little appeal. After a series of disastrous first dates arranged by well-meaning friends, Gale reluctantly agreed to try out a new dating app, only to discover it was more geared toward casual hook-ups than finding a meaningful relationship.
Despite his initial reservations, Gale spent an evening testing the app, scrolling through profiles until he paused on one that caught his eye - a stunning, pale elf with the username Starlight69. On impulse, he marked the profile as a favourite and decided to call it a night. But just as he was about to put his phone away, a message from Starlight69 appeared on his screen…
Starlight69: Hello, darling~ 😈
Without hesitation, Astarion attached a rather flattering photo of himself - nude, of course.

Summary
This is the true story of six strangers, picked to live in a house, and have their lives taped to find out what happens when people stop being polite, and start getting real.
Or : This is what happens when someone raised on nearly 20 years of MTV with a reality TV addiction gets an idea they just can't shake.
Expect shenanigans, fluff, humor, drama, and probably some angst eventually because it's me and I'm incapable of writing anything without dipping into it.
Relationship tags will update as they occur; this IS a reality show, after all!

Summary
Just a short claw-length away, another hermit crab stares back at him. A male. His pheromones drift on the current.
This one is smaller and slimmer, shell so pale it almost seems carved from moonlight. With a body that's translucently white, the faint workings beneath his shell are just barely visible. A pump of blood rushing fast and erratic. Red eyes gleam at Gale, wide and startled.
Along the back of this pale one's carapace runs a thin, healed crack, discolored and jagged like an old fault line in stone. It tells a story of pain, when safety could not be found, when something vast must have crushed down upon this poor crab and ignored his shell.
Or what passes for a shell. Because this hermit crab seems to be in a similar predicament to Gale.

Today’s Instructor: Gale DekariosAstarion stares at the giant sign with distaste, already frustrated by the poor use of colors. It’s an awful mix of blues and teals no doubt used in the hopes of simulating the color of water or something equally boring, but the only effect it achieves is pain as Astarion looks at it.
He’s not looking forward to his very first water aerobics class.

There are marks in the sand.
Strange, unfamiliar, weird marks disturbing the pristine white sand of his beach.
Astarion's tail thumps heavy in the shallow waves, sending ripples outward and scaring the crabs. His brow furrows as they scuttle away. There goes his easy snack.
All because some thing dares to trespass on his private little piece of paradise.

Will Gale ever tell Astarion what it ment for him, when he groomed his feathers?! /o\
