Summary
"We're going home, my love," he murmurs, nosing into Astarion's hairline. "Fret no longer, I'll chase out all the darkness."

In which Astarion is an ex-olympic figure skater and Gale is a famous musician. They get paired together as Dancing on Ice's first ever same sex couple. Shenanigans ensue.

“How did you even get in? I very definitely remember locking up.”
“Ah,” Gale looks ever-so-slightly abashed. Only slightly, though. Mostly he looks a little proud of himself. “You know how the receptionist is always asleep?”
Astarion's eyebrows shoot up.
“Gale Dekarios, you shady thing.”
“I only borrowed it! He's never been awake enough to ask about spares, so. It was easier to just sort it out myself.”
“It would have been easier to ask me,” Astarion points out.
“Mmmm,” Gale hums, doubtfully. “I don't know if I'd ever consider you the ‘easier’ option, Astarion, I feel that would be doing your commitment to cantankerousness a great disservice.”
I'd be extremely easy if you weren't so fucking annoying, Astarion thinks.

Summary
There was a problem with Astarion.
Well, in all likelihood, there were quite a few problems with Astarion.
He was abrasive and flippant and self-serving, and Gale was in no doubt that his quick fingers were skimming at least a little out of whatever chests Tav had him picking.
Oh, and there was the fact that he was a vampire. Yes, there was that little detail.
Or, Astarion getting outed by the shadow-cursed lands.

Summary
“Ah,” Gale startled, “Forgive me. I may have had a little too much to drink, I’m afraid.”
The stranger chuckled, and the sound slid like silk down Gale’s spine.
“What’s the occasion, may I ask?”
“The worst day of my life,” Gale replied, louder than he meant to. He raised his glass in a mock toast and tossed the last of the bourbon back.

Summary
Astarion doesn’t know, exactly, when the fight went completely tits up.
Later, he’ll remember it in flashes. Sounds, mostly. The many booms and crashes of magic, the twang of a crossbow, their darling bard’s voice reverberating straight down into his bones. He’ll remember a beautiful spray of blood from the Gur’s chest, the blackened reddish glow of Wyll’s magic, his own vision sharpening to a point as he rushed in for what should have been the final kill, a bright searing pain in his chest—
But that’s later.
Just now, he’s a bit preoccupied, as it were, with using every last ounce of his willpower to stay conscious.
(Or: The fight against Gandrel goes very badly, very quickly.)

Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”

Summary
Astarion asks Gale about introducing some recreational sex pollen to the bed room. Gale agrees, with some conditions. Negotiations ensue.
(Set after "let me know and i'll take you there," and sometime before the last part of "cutting through the cracks of the concrete," but more or less can be read as its own post-game established relationship fic!)

Summary
Fiddleford didn’t really know what to think when Ford invited him on his and Stanley’s upcoming research trip. He wasn’t the ‘adventuring’ type, by any stretch of the imagination. Certainly not anymore, at least.
But it’s not like Ford would have invited him along if there were any real chance of him getting hurt.

Summary
Ford has stopped shivering when Stan finally hauls him onto the deck. He’s curled into himself, stiff-jointed and unmoving, and somewhere in the back of Stan’s head there is screaming. He can’t lose Ford again, he can’t, he can’t he can’t he can’t he can’t he won’t—
Ford breathes.

Summary
Stan’s next shout feels more like a scream, desperate and frightened and tearing his throat on the way out: “Ford, please! Come on! Stanford, you can’t do this to me, not again—Stanford!”
Something slams into him, and he hits the deck hard. His first instinct is, naturally, to punch—but he doesn’t get that far. As soon as he tries to scramble back to his feet, a knee wedges itself into his back and two hands seize tightly on his shoulders and press him down. A low, dangerous growl reverberates around him, and he freezes. Shit. Shit.
...are there werewolves this far out on the ocean?
But when he cranes to see over his shoulder, he does not see a werewolf. Instead, he sees—
“Ford?!”

Summary
He’s been building towards a meltdown all day, and of course he can’t have the good sense to crave booze or quaaludes or something reasonable and easily acquired. No, after all these years in Hell, he’s only found one thing that’s guaranteed to get him fully out of his head, and it’s not something that can be bought. Not even something he can ask for.
Luckily, he knows how to get it. It just takes a little patience, waiting for the right opportunity to strike.

OR: Vox wants violent sex that he doesn't have to ask for, but gets more than he's bargaining for.
