Summary
You are a monster in a suit. You are a walking lie. Will Graham has no friends.
More than a year after the fall, Will and Hannibal have settled down in Cuba. Armed with matching rings and newly-sewn person suits, the murder husbands satisfy themselves by passing judgement on their fellow monsters; but when his appetites take an even darker turn, Will is faced with the harsh realities of living life behind the veil.
Happiness, stability, ‘home’: are these things achievable when the name on your passport is liable to change, the country you live in is always a stopover, and the profession you work in is never for life?
Is intimacy wise, when the only soul who knows the real ‘you’ is both a man and a monster, whose true love in life seems to be chaos above all else?
At the close of day, when the person suit comes off, and you stand alone in the dark… who are you?
Will Graham is going to find his answers to those questions- but it’s not going to be easy.

Summary
The vampire's eyes are wide and round, full of amazement. They dart wildly around the sights below, as if trying to see everything at once. The lights of the city reflect upon his face, soft shadows dancing across his elegant features. The very tips of his fangs are visible from his parted lips.
The radiance of the city pales in comparison.
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧
Two months after the brain falls, Baldur's Gate has picked up most of the pieces. The band of heroes that saved Faerûn has been there through most of it, helping the city back on its feet. But now it's time to move on. Old lives to get back to, families to return to. Gale is going back to his tower, back to Tara and the blessed quiet. Alone. Or, at least, that was the plan.
This is a story about falling in love.

Summary
In the first year, Astarion flounders.
The start of his un-life, born of dirt and bloodied fingernails as he crawls his way out of the earth, comes like a gasp of icy water into the lungs of a man in a lake in winter. He is drowning.
Where before, there was dignity, privacy, comfort – now there is nothing. Where before food was something taken for granted, a matter of course after a long day spent bent over paperwork or sitting a bench before solicitors, now it is a luxury to be earned if, and only if, his master is pleased.
Where before there were choices – whose bed he would tumble into, and how, and what hands he allowed on him – now, all at once, his body is not his own. Not if he wishes to eat. Not if he wishes his bones whole and unbroken. Not if he wishes a respite from the pain, a reprieve from the rusted teeth of the saw and the relentless pull of the pliers.
