Summary
Even now, in a private pocket dimension accessible to no one but us, the sound of the lock raises goosebumps on my arms and causes the muscles in my stomach to tighten with anticipation.
Slowly, I turn to face Astarion.
His eyes are dark. There’s an intensity to his gaze that threatens to weaken my wretched knees again. But beyond that, there’s the unmistakable hint of a question. A search for confirmation. For consent.
He knows what I want. And I trust him.
My nod is subtle, but it’s enough to put that question at ease.
“Take off your clothes, darling.” His voice is low and quiet, laced with gentle but unwavering authority.
* * *
It's been a year since Cazador's death. A year in the Underdark fortress (unnamed) Tav and Astarion share with countless feral vampire spawn. It's not exactly luxurious, and privacy is hard to come by. But Tav has the perfect solution and a way to celebrate the anniversary of the vampire lord's death: a spell that conjures up an extra-dimensional mansion. But the celebration doesn't end even after the gift is given.
A stupidly long oneshot in which Tav and Astarion get spicy in their magic house.

First Time (Soft Astarion x Virgin Tav) by BlueBerry0001
Fandoms: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
15 Sep 2023
Tags
Summary
Saving the Druid Grove from the goblins led to a celebration that Astarion couldn’t have been less interested in. He resented being revered as a hero and thought the wine was just dreadful. You suggested having a bit of fun together and agreed to meet in the woods once things had quieted down. He flirted with you so much that it was only a matter of time until it finally happened. When he emerged shirtless from the trees and sauntered toward you, fantasy became a reality. Mere nervousness evolved into fear and trepidation as you stared at him in silence.
(Astarion discovers Tav is a virgin and intends on making their first time special so as long as they let him.)

Summary
The Emperor gave you the Astral-Touched Tadpole and encouraged you to embrace your evolution. Accepting the gift would make you transform into a rare breed of monster, a Half-Illithid. You would retain the majority of your appearance, but there would still be painful alterations. The Emperor promised that tapping into your potential would increase your chances of defeating the Elder Brain. However, as you gazed at the worm covered in astral frost, you thought of another monster that needed to die.
(Tav becomes Half-Illithid to kill Cazador and confesses their love to Astarion.)

Summary
Zuko was probably more involved in the gossip around the palace than he had any right to be.
It’s not his fault, it’s really not. It’s just that sometimes he’s sitting in the kitchens (the best place to get the gossip) drinking tea and trying to relax for once, and some of the kitchen staff will start gossiping where he can still hear them. He doesn’t really try to listen in; it’s not his place and he won’t judge the staff based on whatever rumors are running around, but Spirits is it interesting. He tries not to listen too much, or get too invested in it though. Gossip is gossip after all, and rumors hardly ever turn out to be true.
But Zuko absolutely needs to know if Maya from the laundry room broke up with her piece of shit boyfriend.
Or, 5 times Zuko got invested in/meddled in palace gossip, and 1 time he was the subject of the gossip.

Summary
Look, maybe she wasn't familiar with the source material, but she had read and written enough oc-insert fic to tell she had transmigrated into one, so she purposely forgot the entire concept of a “First Person POV”, least she became paranoid about an unknown number of people spectating her super embarrassing inner monologue.
But just to be sure, she also promised she would never think about a detailed itemized description of any outfit she happened to wear.

Summary
Astarion wouldn't dare compare Gale’s very clearly lovingly maintained kitchen to a campfire and a chest of pilfered cheese and stale bread. But the feeling of it, the easy companionship, sharing the day’s burden of woes with someone who understands? That's familiar. And that, he didn't even realise he missed. Only now, watching Gale potter around his kitchen and chatter in much the same way he used to potter around the cookpot, Astarion feels… settled.
Maybe even comfortable.
Oh.
Oh dear.
Before he can stand and take his leave, go back to the contract in Calimshan and pretend this embarrassing little episode never happened, Gale sets a goblet down in front of him.
Just in passing. Drops it off on his way to the teapot. Like he thinks nothing of it.
But it's blood. Fresh, too. Pig, if Astarion's nose can be trusted, which obviously it can. He takes a tentative sip. Then downs the rest before Gale has finished pouring his tea.
“It's warm,” Astarion says, nonplussed, staring at the now-empty goblet. It would be beneath his dignity to lick it. He's no starving wretch now. But it is tempting all the same.Bookmarked by Neutral_Zone

Summary
He can’t ask Gale for help. Gale might have the best chance of finding any sort of cure to his current undesirable condition, but he doesn’t want to turn to him. Something about being vulnerable and in need in front of Gale grates at Astarion’s mind.
He isn’t accustomed to anyone standing up for him like this, not without wanting something in return. And the thought that he could, just for once, lean into that—lean on him—sits uncomfortably close to tempting.

Honestly, I just want to make it past thirty this go-around. Contending with Uchiha Clan Nonsense, an Orochimaru still convinced he needs my baby cousin's eyes, and the knowledge of precisely how bad all this can go, that's looking more and more out of reach by the day.
