    Summary

    “Oh, don’t look at me with that sad little face.” Astarion sighs, looking away. “Imagine a burning vampire spawn standing amidst the heroes of Baldur's Gate, saviors of Faerûn!” He makes a fist with his hand, holding it up high in mock triumph. “Ridiculous. Better to let you all enjoy your victory while I slunk off to the shadows once again.”

    “Astarion, damn it. You’re our friend, one of us. Of course we wanted you there with us. We missed you. I missed you.”

    Three months after the Netherbrain has fallen, Wyll finds Astarion.

    Summary

    The plan for Astarion and Wyll is to travel to Candlekeep to get magic items for them both, and then for them to split ways.

    The problem is Astarion very much does not want to split ways from this devil who keeps feeding and protecting him, and he has only eight days to convince Wyll to keep Astarion around.

    Summary

    He never quite stopped sleeping with a weapon however, nor with his hand far from it. So when he feels the slightest touch in the night, Wyll doesn’t think. There is no time for thinking in a matter of life or death.

    He reacts.

    Wyll immediately curls his hand around his blade and throws his body against his mystery opponent. There’s a cry of surprise and Wyll takes advantage of that surprise, immediately pinning them under him with his body weight and pointing his blade inches from their neck.

    It’s only then, with his opponent deathly still from under him, does Wyll’s mind catch up to him. He’s straddled a humanoid figure, one that trembles under him with their hands up in surrender. And with his Devil’s Sight— a regrettably useful gift from Mizora— Wyll realizes that he recognizes this figure.

    (Or Wyll has been ambushed in his sleep before. When Astarion attempts to get a quick bite in, he is met with the instincts of a monster hunter.)

    Summary

    Daemons AU (no knowledge of daemon au required!)

    For the first time, Wyll realizes that he has never seen Astarion's daemon talk to him. He knows they must have their way to communicate, and, of course, much of it is the feelings that spread and share through their bond, but Astarion rarely addresses the leopard and the feline daemon never utters a word.

    Summary

    "I'm not instructing him to do anything," says Wyll, biting off each word as though it's personally offended him. "It's his decision to make."

    For a long moment, all Astarion can do is stare.

    "It's his decision to make," rattles in his head like a cry disappearing into the depths of a well, an echo of a voice, fading to nothing only to reappear again.

    Astarion has never thought of it in quite that way before.
