Summary
It puts him in mind of seeing his parents or his old girlfriend after the accident, their eyes glassy and voices trembling. He remembers how he’d blinked through the dull red film that coloured his hospital room and said he was sorry. Sorry for what he put them through.
It felt unfair then. It seems unbearable now.
A character study of Stuart as he records The Fall during the American leg of the Plastic Beach tour, reworking the Gorillaz plot around the real touring timeline; or, thoughts on trauma in transit, who we are to strangers, and the link between sugar cravings and opioid dependence.
Now including art by @satsumaorenji.

Summary
“Why did you come here?” Aziraphale interrupts. “Why do you keep doing this?” All the saving, he means, all the chasing after Aziraphale he does. It can’t only be that he’s not keen to endure a replacement. That can’t be it, not anymore. He’s going to get himself in trouble, and then it’ll be Aziraphale’s fault.
Crowley’s mouth shuts with a click. He shifts uncomfortably in his seat, reaches for the handle of the fork and taps his fingertips against it before setting his hands in his lap.
When he speaks, it’s very soft. “Don’t you know?” he asks.
Aziraphale, unnaccustomed to his heart refusing to translate why it throbs with such haste, shakes his head.

Summary
Crowley loves taking Aziraphale out to eat almost as much as Aziraphale loves eating, but it's always a bit of a one-sided affair. Aziraphale has never understood why. Crowley planned on keeping it that way, but best laid plans...

Crowley had always garbed himself like an expensive, Gothically-inclined rent boy; and moreover, Aziraphale had known him for several thousand years and had never known him go anywhere cramped or sweaty unless he was on the job.

Hey, she typed, it’s actually really not cool to use someone else’s pictures on your tinder profile. I figured I should let you know before I report you.
The reply was surprisingly fast. Oh my god syd it actually is me. I let richie make me a profile so that he would shut up.
I didn’t know what the protocol was
For if you see someone you know.
Is this weird?Yes.
No. I mean, I matched you because I thought you were a weirdly specific catfish though.

Summary
Although Astarion is backlit, Gale swears his eyes sparkle.
“You’re not the only one with a ravenous appetite, you know.”
The humbled bob of Gale’s throat must be obvious. It feels obvious.
“Appetite?” he echoes quietly.

Summary
"I think I might have given you the wrong impression," Wyll said, smile sheepish, "I don't, ah, expect you to do anything in return. For me."
There was silence again for a long, awkward moment. For once Astarion was glad to be dead, at least there would be no visible sign of humiliation on his face. All his life he'd been told he was good for one thing only, but the past few tendays had made it abundantly clear that maybe he wasn't good for even that much. He should be relieved that Wyll didn't want to fuck him, but instead he felt only a vertiginous uncertainty.

Summary
In the aftermath of a humiliating public scandal, Astarion Ancunín — a washed-up, strung-out, hot mess of a musician — takes a temporary sojourn away from the public eye. While lying low, he hires a new personal assistant by the name of Wyll Ravengard: charming, handsome, and perhaps not all he seems.

Summary
He chooses an undergrad English course, American Poetry Through the 19th and 21st Centuries. The combined English and History building was a short walk to the library, the class met on Tuesday and Thursday after his regular shifts, reading poetry was a walk in the park compared to the law textbooks he usually skimmed through to study for the bar, and when he plugged “Wyll Ravengard,” into RateMyProfessor he had an overall 4.7 out of 5 rating next to a flaming chili pepper.
-
Astarion needs to take a class to keep his enrollment status until next quarter. Wyll happens to teach that class.

Summary
These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.

Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.- Language:

Summary
Astarion still leans over you, his posture lithe, lazy, relaxed. But there’s a slight rigidness to him that indicates impatience. It’s strange, you think to yourself, that even after 200 years of practice he still can’t hide his thirst. Underneath that easy smile and perfect poise, there it lies, an aching cavity in the pit of his stomach that can never be truly filled.
-
You spend the night after freeing your lovely, but extremely vulnerable tiefling compatriots, perched over the Last Light Inn bar. But while you may be able to satiate your hunger with a mug of mead and bowl of stew, your companion, Astarion, can not. So you offer your neck as a favor to your favorite porcelain skinned elf. That's just what friends do, right?Bookmarked by sumptuous

Summary
“Oh,” Astarion breathes, eyes drooping into glassy little crescents. Well, if this is how he dies, Astarion thinks, this is how he dies. A shame that he’ll never get to plunge a stake through Cazador’s chest. “Death is so beautiful.”
“...Precisely how much of this spider’s blood did you consume?” Gale asks, his hands brushing Astarion’s hair off his soaked forehead. The touch makes the unbearable, painful heat in his body squeeze around him like a heavy chain. “You’re scorching. You could give Karlach a run for all her gold.”

Summary
Tav said no and that meant there weren't many other options.
It was a process of elimination, nothing more. Lae'zel would sleep with him him, but it wouldn't tie her to him in the way he needed it to. Gale was too weak to protect him and Shadowheart would see through his deceptions too easily. Karlach, dear stupid Karlach, would have been perfect. She was strong enough to shield him and desperate for every scrap of affection. If it hadn't been for those flames-
So it was Wyll. It had to be Wyll.
Hells.

Summary
He’d had her taste on his tongue, between her legs, from her pulse, her lips—but all Astarion could think about was the unvarnished way she’d hugged him, as if she could hold him together all on her own, as if that might be enough.
