Summary
Our spawns tries to find their place in a society not meant for them. Elias knows he’s a monster. He knows he’ll see his friends walk towards a lighter future, one with no shadows for him and Astarion to hide in.
While Elias and Astarion tries to find a life, a normal, for themselves, their friends grow more and more suspicious of them. Especially over the bounties they accept and the remains they turn in… with teeth marks…

Summary
Zelda understood the disconnect he felt from his rage. That was Gorgug freshman year, primal rage battling gnomish positivity. But he doesn't feel that disconnect anymore. Sure, it's complicated, but Gorgug can reliably reach for the instinct that simmers low in him, and he can use it to protect his friends. He can also use it to have a fun wrestling match. It doesn't have to be separate from the part of him that supports and defends the people he cares about. In fact, he's not sure it could be separate now.
He wonders if Zelda would understand that. He knows, without question, that Ragh already does.
(Or: Gorgug and co. are in a time stop for seven days. Which is enough time to get over your breakup, make a new best friend, learn a lot about your van, have a conversation about religion, and maybe kiss that boy you like. Maybe.)

Summary
Maybe some tieflings had peculiar courtship rituals. Wyll was never one to hold someone’s customs against them.
However.
He had to bite his tongue and laugh into his cup as he watched their leader settle yet another locked chest in front of Astarion’s tent. The rogue was doing an admirable job of hiding his bewilderment behind salacious jokes but Wyll knew he’d hear the vampire grumbling as he tripped over another box in the morning.

Summary
written for the LoveSong Zine!
The first thing that registers is the nagging feeling that he is missing something. Something vital, something huge, something outside of immediate sensation (the ground, cool on his back; the white veil of sunlight through his eyelids; the smell of the river mingling with something coppery and hot; the sound of someone saying a name through a thick throat), something… just beyond his reach. He opens his eyes, mouth pulling up in a snarl against how bright it is, lifts a hand to shield himself from the glare of daylight and sees his fingers. They are crusted with blood - the source of that hot metallic scent -, dirt under his nails and smeared up his arms. That voice is just on the horizon of his understanding. Like the weight of mountains rests on his head; everything muffled, ears ringing in a stark vibrato which shudders through his skull.

The blue of the Dawn by FrodosAnxietyPrescription

Summary
All people and creatures had emotions; it’s a natural born thing. Scientifically natural. If it were ever even doubted to have been true, it would’ve been clear at that moment of their error. There was always joy: darling and light, over perhaps a newborn babe, or a warm meal after fighting through coldness unbearable. There was sadness, who’s draining yet welcoming embrace pained yet also comforted those who felt it.
All emotions and more, absolutely unaccountable in the measures of effect of all thinking and living. Or not all living. Those of descent of cold, freezing and bloodlust felt it too. Emotions enraptured everyone; no matter what the selected one may be. Yet the strongest emotion, one that could drive even the most holiest of men into a spiral of destruction and despair, seemed to be the most powerful of all. And as the pale elf, slowly twiddling his fingers, nails sharpened and fangs taking a rest, it consumed him even then. Hatred. Unrestrained and never ending Hatred.
Hatred for what he was, hatred for his bloodlust, hatred for all things sweet and joyous. Yet above all, one thing that seemed to capture most of the hatred in his head, was not one many would see as a problem.
Dawn.

Summary
He scanned the terrace slowly and found the source of the music. The woman, sitting on one of the wicker chairs, played a rounded lute-like instrument, while staring over Baldur’s Gate with a pensive gaze. At first glance there was nothing noteworthy about her – brunette, brown eyes, medium build, rounded nose and cheekbones. But Gortash had learned from Raphael that attention to even the tiniest details was key to surviving this world. He noticed that her hands were callused and veined, her build came not from softness but from carefully concealed muscle, and her calm was practiced.

Summary
Baermar never expected to end his night trading songs for drinks with an orc who growls more than he speaks – and refuses to give a name. But between sloshed laughter, stolen glances, and the kind of silence that says more than words ever could, something deeper stirs. What begins as a chance meeting over too many tankards becomes a slow unburdening, a soft unravelling – until want spills over and neither of them can hold it back.

Summary
For a bard, Tav went very quietly. Shadowheart wasn’t sure why she was so surprised by it. Tav did all the important things quietly.
There were seventeen minutes between the fireworks shop exploding and the rest of the team finding their missing rogue. There were also seventeen minutes from the moment Bhaal killed his rebellious spawn and when the amnesiac’s new patron came to claim the leftovers.
It's probably a coincidence. But the tadfools find there's a lot of honesty that can be had in a quarter of an hour. Or, even in a world of magic, fear of death means something. (Stand-alone fic)

Summary
“Welcome to Duck Life, the 6 ½ installment of the Life Series, where we have three lives. When you have all three lives, your name is green, and you’re a duck. Ducks have the goal to cause chaos as much as possible. Once you lose your first life, your name turns yellow, and you become a duckling. Ducklings are smaller than normal, about a block and a half tall, and have the goal to maintain peace unless attacked. Finally, when you have one life left, your name turns red. Red lives are known as geese, and have the intent to cause as much chaos and conflict as possible. Geese are two and a half blocks tall. This one’s going to be wild, so let’s jump in.”

Summary
It’s been two days since she last saw him. She pictured their victory differently. She thought that there would surely come a moment where she could lean over to him and quietly say it. Perhaps when they were walking down the street, on the way to celebrate their victory. A moment of mundanity, where she could finally realise that there was nothing more to overcome; that they had made it to the other side.
Instead she watched him fleeing into the shadows, skin already seared from the morning sun.
