Summary
"We were so worried, we heard you—" Ragatha starts, and then looks up. She meets Jax's gaze dead-on, and goes silent. Tears brim in the corner of her eye. Her hand flies up to cover her mouth. He can't tell if the look on her face is relief or fear.
Gangle's staring at him like she's seen a ghost. Pomni slowly raises to her feet, brows furrowed. She winces as every movement jars her wavering form.
Cowered on the floor, panting, confused and disoriented, with everyone standing above him, taller than him… it reminds Jax of something deeply unpleasant. They're all staring at him. They're all seeing him.
Jax knows they're not going to like what they see.
His breath quickens until his head is spinning, and he feels like he's going to vomit. He forces himself upwards with a frustrated cry, swaying in place, and then turns and bolts towards his room as fast as he can.
"NO!" Pomni screams.
(or: pomni pulls jax back from the brink.)

Summary
Zanka had always been weak. He’d always known it. But lately, it felt like the world was determined to make sure he never forgot.
Or: Zanka's past, present and future as a member of the Cleaners.
Read for extended Zanka angst, mind the tags for warnings. I’m a sucker for a happy ending but there will be suffering on the path that leads to it. It gets better before it gets worse before it gets better.

Summary
Eisha could seal up his wounds, but she couldn’t get the poison out. All they could do was keep Zanka company as he rides out the effects of three different toxins coursing through his veins.
Basically a hurt/comfort fic of Zanka’s painful recovery from the toxins that Jabber hit him with.

Summary
Astarion discovers that his sex drive—long considered a casualty of his vampirism—returns with a vengeance after being properly fed for the first time in two hundred years. This would be annoying enough, but his newly revived sexuality has acquired an interest bordering-on-obsession with one Wyll Ravengard, Blade of Frontiers. But how hard could seducing one hero be?
(Spoiler: much harder than it looks.)

Summary
He almost doesn't notice the hole in the ground, lost in his thoughts as he is. It's deep, and looks out of place in the forest. More importantly, there's a child in the hole. A very small child, from the looks of it. The child themself looks gaunt and deathly pale, the strange clothes practically hanging off their stick-thin frame.
Nathan crouches down, concern etching itself onto his features. He's barely in the right head-space to look after himself at the moment, let alone anything else, but he can't just leave the poor kid there.
"You ok there, kid? I'm Nathan."OR
Abaddon is not a demon, but a human child raised in a cult, until he's abandoned and found by Nathan. Father-son bonding and healing ensues. Come get it while it's hot!

Summary
Wyll’s leaned up against the farm fence in the distance, watching Astarion flutter and flirt. His mouth is a thin line.
“We’ll give lust a try,” Dorothea says blandly. “Let’s see what you do with it.”
(Or: Astarion seduces the Dark Urge. Wyll watches with increasing concern.)

Summary
The car whines when Astarion accelerates, a thumping under his feet and center console. The dashboard rattles, teeth in a skeleton, even the steering wheel keening like a death knell. Every time he brakes, something screams. He can't smell smoke, but he can feel heat pouring from the vents, sweating through his nightclothes. There's a dial from hot to cold—he spins it and feels nothing change.
When he presses its gas, the car goes forward. When he brakes, it stops.
He keeps driving.
Astarion escapes Cazador with the clothes on his back, a wad of stolen cash, and a car that's sat abandoned in a garage for thirty years.
There's a metaphor in that, perhaps.

Summary
Once upon a time, before he was heralded as a hero of Baldur's Gate, before he was even the Blade of Frontiers, Wyll Ravengard was only a young man tossed around by fate. Banished from the only world he ever knew, scared, shivering, and lost, Wyll barely survived his first years out in the wilderness. He tries not to think back to those days.
But those days, it seems, are not ready to let him go.

Summary
Hallucinations come a little more naturally to elves than other races. The vapor-thin veil between the reverie of trance and stark reality takes so little effort to pierce. An elf dreams through their memories without ever truly sleeping; thus, dreams do not always wait for consciousness to exit before stepping onto the stage. At least, that's how Astarion sees it. He's never had his assumptions checked by a second opinion.
Astarion, at Tav's request, eats something that doesn't agree with him. This has unexpected consequences.

Summary
When he wakes, he is on a beach, gold, looking up at the sun.
Ah, he thinks, distant. I'm dreaming.
Astarion is never quite sure, until the moment Cazador lies dead before him, whether this entire adventure is anything more than an extremely vivid hallucination.

Summary
It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up flat in the dirt, hands tied behind his back, bleeding. His head aches.
Wyll stands over him, uncharacteristically scared. "Astarion," he says, fast and frantic. "Are you back to yourself?"
There are two puncture wounds on his neck.
(It goes something like this: Astarion wakes up. The party says he attacked them. He does not remember this.)

Summary
"They won't kill Cazador," Sebastian says, quiet. "At least, not in time. They'll save the world first. And that breaks your protection and damns you back to the kennel."
He leans in, smoke trailing from his hair. "Tell me they would," he murmurs. "Tell me right now whether you trust them to free you."
Astarion can't meet his eyes.
The party enters the shadowlands under less auspicious conditions, and finds the curse more hungry than anticipated. Before long, they are, too.
It is three weeks to Reithwin, and something does not want Astarion to make it.
