    Summary

    Rensaire is a runaway bard and gunslinger, drifting across the western lands of Faerûn with only fragments of his past and the songs of the road to guide him. Since the Nautiloid, his memories are scattered, selective—he knows only the freedom of travel, the thrill of performance, and the shadow of his own elusiveness. Wherever he goes, he can’t shake the feeling of being subtly out of place, the curious—or sometimes wary—glances of strangers, and the unsettling stare of a certain vampire who seems to recognize something he doesn’t.

    Something whispers at the edges of his consciousness, a premonition not of his own danger, but of a storm coming for those around him. As he navigates friendship, loyalty, and the intoxicating call of adventure, Rensaire begins to wonder: did he leave a mistake behind, or is the world itself conspiring to remind him that some memories refuse to stay buried?

    Summary

    After the fall of the Netherbrain, Tav's home in Baldur's Gate was destroyed and Gale offers his tower as a temporary place for her to rest and heal. A very slow-burn romance starts to bloom, while Tav (named Iluviel) struggles to be ready after the things Astarion did to her.

    ~

    Lots of D&D lore and (mostly canonical) Waterdeep worldbuilding went into this fic that follows both Gale and Iluviel through their daily lives inside and outside of the wizard's tower.

    ~

    Readers said about this fic: "This fic has had me in a chokehold from Day 1. The most deliciously slowest of slow burns, yet with enough intensity and cliffhangers to keep me racing back to it as soon as a new chapter alert comes out. The world-building that has happened in this fic surpasses just about all of the other fics I've read to date, with the imagery and scenery so beautifully written I could imagine myself sitting right in the kitchen along with Gale, Tara, and Iluviel, dodging pots and pans 😁"

    Summary

    Gale knows nothing good happens on Zastrow Street after dark. Nothing until the hazel-eyed girl with the stormy smile who crawls into his chest and makes a nest against his heart.

    It's a terrible way to discover just how rough his own edges have become. To watch, helpless, as she drives him to the sort of madness men start wars over.

    A terrible thing indeed.

    Summary

    ×Comments are welcome, this is a completely original work, from my own brain, no AI or tools were used.×

    ◇Ascended Astarion meets a shut-in introvert, two facades clash◇

    “I apologize Lord Astarion, but the summoning spell did work properly, she just so happened to have lived in a different realm from this one, one without magic. I can send her back and recast the spell again if you wish.” The old wizard tried to reassure the elf.

    Stormi sighed quietly in relief, unfortunately her computer didn't get the memo to shut up.

    “Fuck you! And fuck everything you've ever done to me!” Astarion’s own voice rang out over her speakers before she slammed the laptop shut and clutching it to her chest, hoping, praying he didn't think too much of it.

    “No, on second thought I think I'll keep this one.” The elf walked closer to the girl with her laptop, now wide eyed, pale and shaking in fear, she knew who he was and what sort of tendencies he had, could she survive him? Would he send her home after whatever he summoned her for is finished? She already knew the answer, a resounding NO.

    It was a bad day to choose to fight Cazador in Baldur’s Gate 3.

    Summary

    After defeating the Elder Brain and saving Baldur’s Gate, Tav and Astarion embark on a new journey in search of a cure for Astarion’s vampirism—or at least something that will allow him to walk under the sun once more. But when Raphael reappears with an offer almost impossible to refuse—a definitive cure for Astarion and the freedom of Karlach and Wyll—Tav faces a decision that could change everything.

    Devil contracts are never as simple as they seem, and accepting this deal might come at an unimaginable cost.

    Would you be willing to sacrifice your soul for the one you love most?

    Summary

    Tras derrotar al Cerebro Anciano y salvar Baldur’s Gate, Tav y Astarion se embarcan en una nueva travesía en busca de una cura para el vampirismo de Astarion o, al menos, algo que le permita caminar bajo el sol nuevamente. Pero cuando Raphael reaparece con una oferta casi imposible de rechazar —una cura definitiva para Astarion y la libertad de Karlach y Wyll—, Tav se enfrenta a una decisión que podría cambiarlo todo.

    Los contratos de los diablos nunca son tan simples como parecen, y aceptar este trato podría tener un precio inimaginable.

    ¿Estarías dispuesta a sacrificar tu alma por la persona que más amas?

    Summary

    Summary

    Gale and Tav Dekarios have started a life together in Waterdeep, trying to put the difficulties of the past behind them. While Gale wrestles with trying to protect his wife from her past and the ambitions of other wizards, Tav is struggling to put her past behind her enough to adjust to normalcy.

    However, the past has a funny way of coming back to haunt you, because the powerful dead don't tend to stay that way. And there's one body they never had the chance to destroy: Enver Gortash.

    And that's just the beginning of their troubles...Because the threat of relapse is nipping at Tav's heels.

    -------

    Sequel series to "Don't Let Me Kill You", takes place about 8 months after the defeat of the Netherbrain. The Dark Urge is named Tavrin, a Seldarine Drow Rogue.
    Lots of research on Forgotten Realms lore went into building this story, so expect lore that wasn't in the BG3 game.

    It is not required to read the series' Part 1, but it is recommended. :)

    All Durgetash scenes will be done via flashback starting around chapter 8ish. So if you're not here for that (or, if that's all you're here for lol) they will be marked with *** at start and end in the relevant chapters.

    Summary

    When they think no one is looking…
