    Summary

    Mermaid!AU. Halsin is a lone marine biologist on Faerûn Island, trying his best to fight the aftermath of a toxic oil spill from Shar Limited's capsized tanker. Astarion is a mermaid, recently escaped from the Szarr marine laboratory and hungry for revenge against the man who held him captive. With a shared love of the sea and shared desire to see two corporations fall, perhaps they can help each other out.

    Summary

    Not every flower needed to make medicine. Not every apple needed to become a pie. Once, Astarion and his hands served no purpose besides Cazador’s, but now, they picked fruit, and planted flowers. Now, he made tea. Now, he stood in the sun.

    Like a bulb planted in the winter, Astarion had lasted every year that passed, and he would last many more.

    or: after he is cured, astarion finds his life in reithwin with halsin is full of strange and delightful new things.

    Summary

    When his advances are rejected one drunken night, Astarion makes it his personal mission to get the druid into his bed. His game of seduction quickly backfires when he realizes Halsin is in it for the long run.

    [Light sprinkling of smut in chapter 3. There will be much more afterwards. A LOT of incoming angst if you're into that. Probably the most angst heavy fic I've written]

    Summary

    “How old are you, Astarion?”

    Astarion is not expecting the question, Halsin can tell by the way he jerks upright, spine straight, shoulders strong.

    “Two-hundred-and-forty,” he answers without hesitation. “Give or take a few years.”

    Halsin swallows, rewords his question. “How old were you when you were turned?”

    Astarion goes quiet. Extremely, cacophonously quiet.

    “Thirty-nine,” he finally says, a bolt straight into Halsin’s heart.

    -

    Halsin discovers Astarion was turned before his maturity and all the sacred elven rites that come along with it. Including the sex one.

    Summary

    “I see,” he said, his voice low and dripping with promise. He picked up the rosemary he’d originally been sniffing, carefully putting it to the side. “I do intend to purchase some herbs first though, darling.”

    “First?” Halsin asked, raising an eyebrow at him.

    The man tutted at him, hands on his hips. “Darling, I think it’s already a forgone conclusion that I’m following you home and getting fucked. Now, do you have any lavender?”

    ~~~***~~~***~~~

    A modern AU disaster involving Astarion, an unlikely fiance, the herb seller at the local market, and a fair amount of angst and gratuitous smut. I may cause angsty trauma, but we always find a good ending eventually!
