Summary
When multi platinum Folk rocker, Gale Dekarios steps in to save his band’s stadium tour, Astarion swears he’ll never forgive the intrusion. Gale is everything he resents—polished, industry-made, and tied to a label Astarion despises. But then Gale sings his songs—his lyrics, Astarion is desperate to hear more of his songs in that voice that wraps around the lyrics like they were always meant for him.

Summary
Before the orb, before the fall, Gale was Mystra's perfect Chosen, until Lyanna Harken pulled him from the depths and breathed life back into his lungs. Unbidden. Unwanted. Unforgettable.
In the floating city of Sharn, his divine mission to recover a Netherese tome collides with her desperate search for the Whispering Blades. She offers chaos where he craves control. He promises order where she needs freedom. Neither expected to matter.
Pride goeth before a fall, but no one warns you how intoxicating the view from the edge can be.
Side B:
Lyanna Harken’s just a wanderer trying to find her late mentor’s legacy. She didn't sign up for drowning wizards, divine politics, or the way Mystra's Chosen looks at her like she's both salvation and damnation. Should've known better than to strike a deal with someone who thinks breathing is a debt to be repaid.Series

Summary
Raphael, arguably the most accomplished player on the Lanceboard of Life, failed to anticipate that he would be unable to fully master the Crown of Karsus without Elynn, who channels the Karsite Weave better than him.
Having escaped from Raphael's manipulative clutches, she wants nothing more than a life with Astarion, who is mortal like her.Raphael has given her an ultimatum if she doesn't agree to stand by his side and help him realise his plans for world domination: She is to become queen alongside Raphael; otherwise, a city in Faerûn will be destroyed every new tenday.
Elynn knows she must challenge and defeat Raphael, but until the Githyanki forces arrive to help with the upcoming war, all there is to do is hope.
She knows that until then at least one city will fall.
Elynn must not give up, because if Raphael succeeds, mortals and gods alike will be damned. Elynn is hope personified. If she succumbs to his plan to make her immortal, the world's hope will be lost.
She doesn't have much time to prepare mentally, psychologically and magically for the fight of her life.
Fortunately, however, she is not alone. She has her companions and, perhaps soon, the support of the gods.Series

Summary
It's 1980-something and the eclectic band Astarion and The Misfits has enjoyed moderate success so far. But as the band heads out on their first national tour, lead singer/songwriter Astarion is falling apart.
His traumatic past is catching up to him and it's getting harder to hide his worsening cocaine habit from his band. The only time he feels something approaching okay is when he's writing music, or around his keyboardist and best friend, Gale.
Will Astarion be able to pull himself together enough to deal with his painful past and out-of-control present before it's too late to save his future? Or is he doomed to repeat the cycle and end up as just another tragic rock and roll cautionary tale?
~~ Step right up! Come one, come all! We've got: excessive use of the f-word! Shameless (fair) use of songs recorded after the 1980s, from many genres, that have been shoehorned in to fit the story (or vice versa)! Belly-flopping face down into all kinds of trauma like it's Scrooge McDuck's money bin! More flashbacks than an acid trip! Angst and longing! Romance and smut! A side of Halstarion! A side of Karheart! A main course of Bloodweave! Frequent chapter updates, including Spotify playlist! ~~

Summary
”Mr. Dekarios… what happened?”
”I - I don’t know Tara. I opened the book, then everything went black. When I woke up I felt a tightness in my chest and,” He jestured to his left side “This had appeared.”
- Or -The Netherese Orb absorbs life energy and now Gale kills everything he touches. After a year of fruitless research in his tower, he goes to Baldur’s gate looking for answers. He takes a job as a cook in a seedy tavern so he can use the animals on the menu to feed the orb.
Astarion is out on the prowl and his latest hunting ground shows promise. It’s a shame the handsome guy in the kitchen is so shy. He would be excellent prey.
**This fic updates around 1 to 2x a week. Chapters are on the shorter side (1500 to 3k), but you get them quick!**

Summary
What makes a person?
Is it a name? Something attached to you since birth? Something a god or nature provided?
If that is the case, the bard is unsure if she can be called a person. Names are like a job title to her, like gauze, like a hat: something fictional, disposable, and a prop.
Jane Doe, Zoe De Schanel, Jessica Day, Summer Finn, and many more have come and gone for The Bard.
She honestly cannot even be sure if she can refer to herself as “The Bard”. Does she have the abilities of one? Yes, but rarely are her original works received well and even more rarely is she a capable spellcaster. All she really has is a tongue she dipped in silver and an uncanny ability to pump out paintings at lightning speed.She is incredibly ill equiped for adventure but keeps fucking getting tossed into it. Again and again and again.
Tav in this is a girl failure who tries to be a girlboss. College of Eloquence Bard. She sucks but we love her.Platonic relationship focus
Tav will be "Tav"
More focus on character interactions and moments
Tav’s backstory does involve actual important people in the Forgotten Realms to maximize angst -

Summary
“Last question, Astarion. Would you ever hurt a living thing?”
Astarion stares blankly ahead, “No. Of course not. Not unless they had it coming.”
“Astarion,” the man laughs, and slides his fingers on the glass and light. “In your present build: Would you harm a living thing?”
“No.”
“Good boy,” he smiles.
Some part of Astarion appreciates the words, even as his emotional subroutines are suppressed. He is a good boy, sometimes.
