Summary
There was a hunger in Phael.
A crawling thing that whispered in moments of silence. Not divine, not infernal. Not Bhaal's doing (though some might blame it on that). No, this was something far more insidious. Something *internal*, rather than the typical rage brought by being Karma's Fury.
It was a sickness of thought. A curse he had carried since his oath, for to *act* on those impulses would be to shatter it, and his spirit, entirely. And that, above all, he feared.
He'd had just learned to love deeply. Fiercely. And because of that, the thoughts felt all the more monstrous. As if his love was inviting danger. As if his relationships made them vulnerable to the storm inside him.
But they were only thoughts. They were not truths.
He did not wish to harm the innocent. He did not wish to indulge in cruelty. But in his weakest hours with the tadpole in his brain, when the pressure in his skull rose like steam and his breath could not quite steady… he wondered.
If he faltered, who would be there to save him from himself?

Summary
The world held its breath a dozen hours before a certain party marched into Cazador’s manor. In that hush, Astarion speaks with no performance nor flirtation— just a question daring to be asked.

Summary
It haunts him every year without fail. Usually, he’d wake up in an empty bed of a motel or something, drowning in whiskey-flavoured sorrows for the entire day, and then end up in a different bed with one or more other people. It was a crude coping mechanism, far from a fitting tribute to Dr. Liao's life, and more often than not left Cole feeling even more guilty.

Summary
“This is what a Shimada does. We take care of our people, because they take care of us. When they are hungry, we feed them. When they are hurt, we heal them. And when their city is burning about them, we quench the flames. A leader must be responsible, or else he is nothing more than a parasite.”
While their castle was indeed strong stone, the Shimada were no gods, but people—and criminals at that. But the Shimada understood that honour and loyalty forge the strongest bond between ruler and ruled.

Summary
His stroking fingers stilled and came to rest against the center of Halsin's chest, feeling the steady pulse of life beneath his touch. The rhythmic beat stimulated his sanguine hunger, to be sure, but it also spread over his thoughts and anxieties like a soothing balm in a way Astarion had never expected. In a world that always seemed to demand his attention, push his boundaries, and test his ability to survive, it was oddly comforting to simply… be.
OR: It's late, and Astarion can't sleep. Halsin helps him calm his mind.

Summary
Murdering the goblins in the camp and their three leaders quelled your bloodlust, but only for a short time. You needed more blood— more kills. While the Tiefling refugees of the Grove celebrated, you fantasized about their bloody deaths. At one point, you slipped away from the festivities with a knife to do what you should have done long ago. You held the knife to your gut and looked up at the moon. All this time, you feared becoming a monster in a matter of days, but you were already one, an insatiable monster. Ending your life was the only way you would ever know peace.
(The Dark Urge resolves to kill themselves but Astarion stops them and offers a solution to quell their thirst for blood.)

Summary
Rather like a frog being slowly brought to a boil, by the time Astarion realizes he's doomed himself, it's already too late.
