Summary
“Maybe what you really need is a friend, not a lover.”
Astarion’s eyes flutter with surprise. “I-I would like that. I’ve held more people than I can count. An infinite parade of lovers. But a friend?” He pauses on the question and his face becomes crestfallen. “I can’t think of a single one.”
He puts his hand out to Effy, to which she happily accepts.
“Until you,” he says with a smile that only she’s ever seen.
Ever since that moment the two remained friends and even got an apartment together in the lower city shortly after the defeat of the Netherbrain. It’s been several months and Effy is happily living with her vampire bestie but Astarion’s been acting different lately…

Summary
“How old were you when you were turned?” You ask gently, hoping the push doesn’t cause him to shut down and dawn the mask once again. Every crack in his façade makes you want to peer behind those walls all the more.
“I’m…not sure, to be honest,” he says after a pause.
You stare back at the fire, contemplating. You don’t want to push too far and lose this moment, but something is dawning on you. Even the youngest elven city officials you’d heard about were old enough to have outlived most of their human colleagues twice over. Humans are notoriously bad at estimating the ages of longer-living races, often having trouble telling between even a one hundred year old and a two hundred year old. For an elf to be young enough for most humans to realize they even were young…
“Astarion is still your child name, isn’t it,” you say, more a statement of fact than a question.
Another pause.
“...yes. Yes it is.”

Summary
(What started as a planned 3-chapter omo-smut fic has turned into a full-fledged omo-smut-with-feelings novel, featuring direct lines of dialogue from the game and spanning all of Astarion's character quest.
Alternate Title: Best Vampire Boy is Pee Shy, Falls in Love
*There is piss here, and mentions of trauma. But there will be smut and feelings as well.)
---🪶They've finally reached the city of Baldur's Gate. Astarion is dealing with complications to his nice, simple plan, while confronting a secret shame that has followed him for centuries.
🪶Beginning in Ch 2, Astarion will confess his true feelings, and he and Tav will agree to remain "friends," not lovers.
🪶As Astarion says: it sounds like a challenge.
