Summary
[Leid: German for Suffering/Misery: deep emotional pain caused by past harm/adversity/sorrow]
Two years after the Tadpole Days, Astarion and his lover, tiefling bard D'ylân, are in a happy relationship. Most of the time.
On one of his bad days, when the painful feelings of self-loathing outweigh his happiness, he curses his choice to stay a spawn.
Needing time alone after an argument with his lover, he runs into a dryad who offers him a gift: A glimpse at an alternate reality, where he'd witness the Vampire Ascendant he would have become had he taken a different path two years ago. It's not what he expected.
Back in his reality, Astarion needs to have a serious talk with D'ylân about one of the worst topics to talk about: His feelings. But it's safe to say that the sweet, rewarding makeup sex that follows is worth a little trouble.

The Thorns That Bind by FrekyDeky

Summary
Isehari completed half her contract, at least. That's what she tells herself while pacing the fade; Neve said she should take her wins where they are. So, instead of wallowing in the despair that's gnawing at her heels, the assassin triumphs over the fact that the long-necked bitch, Ghilan'nain, is dead. It's easier than facing eternity. An eternity, here, alone, and surrounded by the dead eyes staring up at her from the ledge below; trapped because she still cannot bring herself to look him in his eye.
Meanwhile, the team adjusts to the loss of four of their friends. Pressed between mourning their losses, and preventing the decimation of their entire world, tensions are high between the five remaining Veilguard.
XXXX
Really, I just need the weeks in between Tearstone and escaping the Fade to be filled in. I need the prison to hurt a little more. Here's my take, on the ten weeks that my crow Rook, Isehari de Riva, is trapped in the fade.Bookmarked by rathlora

Summary
Spite speaks. A hiss in the air, like a sigh, words pooling in Lucanis’s mouth like so much water, spilling forth into the light air of the Fade around them. Words that are true. Words he wants to swallow but can’t. Compelled by the demon or by divine justice. “Rook. Distracting Lucanis. Feelings. Too many feelings.”
Lucanis wakes up standing over a sleeping Rook with a dagger in his hand. A story about a punishment that doesn’t quite fit the crime.

Summary
I don’t recall the whole conversation, but it quickly gained volume and fervor and soon we were verbally abusing one another across the hearthrug about my “total disregard for personal safety” and his “inability to aid me in all things.” What I do remember is his shouting, “You’re completely out of control, Holmes!” and my yelling back, “Well, then, control me, why don’t you?”
He went silent. It was suddenly so quiet in our sitting room that the noise of the fire crackling behind me was almost deafening. I knew I had strayed, but I didn’t know where.

Summary
Different in almost every conceivable way, though exactly the same in their shared grief, sat the sole elf of their Fellowship on top of the wall. Gimli knew better than to be nervous at his dangerous-looking position, knew that elves weren't ones to slip with a mere gust of wind, but the thought of Legolas falling to his doom as Aragorn had was too much for him to take.
Or
Before the Battle of Helms Deep, Gimli and Legolas talk sorrow.
