Summary
”Fig jigglers were essentially shortbread cookie cups with a flanlike, figgy filling meant to rise above the cookie’s cupline and jiggle without collapsing or cracking. The finished product was dusted with powdered sugar and served either at room temperature or chilled, depending on the season.” - Hot Mess, chapter 12

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

Summary
"Not that you ever need a reason, Shadowheart," Wyll begins warmly.
Oh, no.
"But...it's been ten years. What brings you back to Baldur's Gate?"
Ten years since the thrice-damned tadpoles and she can still feel Lae'zel's smirk like a physical presence. Shadowheart sighs.
"If you must know," she says. "Someone has stolen a priceless artifact from the githyanki."

Summary
The hand removed itself from his forehead. “Temperature is normal,” Gale announced, before using its fingers to gather some stray drool that had trailed down Astarion’s jaw. Before Astarion could register the pitiful jolt of arousal at the sudden skin contact or the sheer absurdity of what Gale was doing, Gale had stuck its fingers in its mouth.
“What the —”
“No new bacteria detected,” Gale went on, “Ruling out food poisoning.”
“Oh, Gods,” Astarion groaned. “And to think that these things are what’s sending our workforce into a tizzy. What next, 'droid? Are you about to give me a rectal examination too?”
“There is no need for one at the moment,” Gale said, confused. “Unless you are seeking prostate stimulation—”
“No!”
Amidst the softly thrumming melancholy of a dystopian, cyber-punk city, former corporate-rat Astarion Ancunín, who has long since lost the will to live, finds himself in possession of a G-413 or "Gale" - an amnesiac android who, strangely enough, enjoys living.

Summary
“I…have known nothing in my life but battle.” The words are stilted, brusque; it is her way. “All my knowledge of…children…is of constant testing, unending bloodshed. I do not know what a healthy creche looks like. I do not know what a healthy githyanki childhood looks like. That knowledge has been stolen from us. I do not—” She grits her teeth. “I dislike embarking on such an important mission with no information. Too much is at stake.”
Tearing such vulnerability from between her ribs has never come naturally. But watching the still-wet hatchling examine its own toes, watching her lover brush eggshell from its arms, against her will Lae’zel softens. They have been through too much together not to respond such. Back-to-back, as ever, there is surely no challenge so great that they cannot—
“Well, don’t look at me,” says Shadowheart. “I was raised in a cult, remember?”
