    Summary

    Gale yelps as Astarion's very cold fingers find his midriff. Astarion laughs, burrowing deeper under Gale's robe.
    “Ah-ha, Astarion, did you take an ice bath on the way here?” Gale protests.
    “Well usually I wake up to somebody very ready to warm me up.” Astarion purrs.
    “You know what they say; cold hands, warm heart,” Gale says, absently.
    Astarion pinches him, gently.
    “Ow!” Gale protests, “What, you're allowed to come and put your hands all over me but I'm not allowed to make comments like that?”
    “You can do better, love,” Astarion says, sniffily. “That was practically lazy. I'm afraid I've become accustomed to a much higher calibre of charm.”
    “Are you insinuating that I have somehow spoiled you, Astarion?”
    “For anyone else, absolutely,” Astarion agrees, sadly.
    Shadowheart sighs.
    “Glad you two are as disgusting as ever,” she says.

    Summary

    A remix of Act 2 in which Gale gets more of a character arc resolution.

    “Gods damn it Gale!”
    Astarion leaps over him. The guard, poised to land an entirely excessive final blow to Gale’s skull, topples backwards with a knife in his gut. The second pierces his neck, sending him crashing to the ground. Astarion yanks his blades back, and drops to his knees beside Gale.
    “Oh no no no, you are not dying on me now.”
    Gale attempts to express something, but it comes out as a gurgle of bloody bubbles. The world swings to the side, black and spinning.
    “I swear, if it turns out I did just watch you spend the last of your magic sending your cat back to safety instead of saving your own damn skin-”
    The threat remains unfinished. A healing potion trickles between Gale’s lips.
    “Tressym,” Gale says, when he can finally trust his voice.
    Astarion is still crouched over him, cheeks flushed, sweat running down his brow and someone else’s blood smeared across his cheek. Gale has the sudden urge to kiss him.
    “What?”
    “She’s a tressym. Not a cat.”
    Astarion makes a noise of such furious, pained exasperation that Gale half expects the dagger to end up in his neck next.

    Summary

    He’s almost looking forward to either falling from the top of the Netherbrain into the River Chionthar, or watching it fall from a safe distance. It’ll be over, then! It’ll be done. He can go hide in the dark, forget this ever happened twice. Astarion can forget Tav. He can move on. Learn to love the dark again, or something.

    Astarion wakes up in a pod on the Nautiloid.

    Summary

    Somehow, they made it work.

    (the au where the triforce become a triad; quintessentially just domestic castle scenes.)

    Summary

    There’s nothing between them, she’s sure. But the problem is that if the rumors don’t die down in time, her father will find out, and then he’ll take Link away from her, too, and then she’ll never—

    Zelda doesn’t want to think about that. She stares openly at him, as if challenging him to inquire. He meets her eyes frequently, never for too long, but always with the unspoken question: What are you looking at?

    You, she wants to say. She wants to say nothing at all. She wants Link to snap her out of this unbidden fantasy, to free her mind of its most recent craze. She needs him to. She needs him to shake her out of her thoughts or the next time he tries speaking to her she’ll jump him.

    “What’s wrong?” He asks finally.

    “The entire castle thinks we’re having sex,” Zelda blurts.
