“I just wanted to make sure that you were okay.” Nicky stood with his hands in his pockets. “Joe said that you might want this,” he held up a little pint of ice cream and a spoon.
A figure darted to the other side of Nile’s room, and she could tell the exact moment when Nicky knew she was full of shit. -

Summary
Six years ago, Lucanis and Enlee spent a night together in Treviso.
Neither one of them expected this sort of reunion.
With gods to fight, family to avenge, and a demon to contend with, it seems best for their past to stay a pleasant memory. They can ignore the spark between them if it means saving the world and protecting each other.
But leaving things unsaid might be more dangerous than facing the truth.

Summary
“Back up, quickly!” Astarion snapped his book shut and jumped to his feet. Looking up he wasn’t sure what was happening. Gale had his staff ready with Shadowheart reaching for her discarded shield, all while Balro was standing, staring down a twisting crackling portal that had opened out on the beach near camp.
The gang is spending a typical night at camp when a portal opens dumping a mysterious half-elf woman in their lap. None of them know her, yet she knows all of them.

Summary
The Feast of Heroes was meant to celebrate the efforts of common and special champions who took up arms against the threats that dared target the city of Baldur’s Gate. It would always include mention of some spectacular individuals that gave life and limb for their home. However, the legendary six were always at the forefront of these tributes, led by none other than the self-proclaimed leader of the group, pivotal in taking down the mind flayer threat.
Lord Astarion Ancunín.
Owner of the Ancunín Estate. Member of the Council of Four. All-powerful vampire ascendant.
And the target of Althea’s emancipation pact.

Summary
Fear had a way of leaving scars on the mind like blows left bruises and cuts on the skin. No amount of wine could wash away his nightmare, but that did not stop Astarion from trying.
—
Grappling with changes that came along with his newfound freedom, Astarion unexpectedly catches feelings for a socially awkward, yet incredibly sweet, ranger from Neverwinter. Astarion doesn’t want to put a name to those feelings. Doesn’t want an attachment that could be ripped away at a moments notice.
But damn, does Cas makes his conviction to remain unattached, to use her as a tool, seem impossible.- Language:

Summary
Once, there was a haunted bluegrass-playing half-elf bard with a dark past who met a charmingly cringefail elven vampire with a dark past and they flirted one another into oblivion until they fell in love. They collect a group of delightful chucklefucks on the road and they all banter their way through the darkness to face their demons and save the world together.
A retelling of the campaign written with sitcom-level dialogue and tons of found family and healing from trauma tropes. Very Schitt's Creek but with more violence.
AKA 18 Charisma bard sees through 10 Charisma vamp-boy's bullshit and falls for him anyway. But he falls first.
