Summary
Astarion’s always been a flirt, so what happens when the new victim of his attentions, Gale, falls for it and takes it seriously? With Tav having turned Astarion down it should be fun to see how far this game can play out. But then what will Astarion do when he catches feelings he doesn’t even understand?
Part 17 of Shades of Romance
Last Time: Gale managed a plan with the collar from the Underdark, and wore it, ending in some fun times for him and Astarion. After that the party got saddled with a murder investigation, got some help from the Deep Gnomes to get into Wyrm’s Crossing, and found out about more refugees to talk to.
Now: Officially into Wyrm’s Crossing, the group has run into two vampire spawn. What happens next?

Part 16 of Shades of Romance
Last Time: The party arrived in Rivington and adopted Yenna into the camp, who Gale is teaching. At least the camp seems safe, since they’ve all met shape changers like Orin, and anyone could not be who they seem, which was all the more evident at the circus date the party shared a double date at. At least the whole date wasn’t ruined though.
Now: Gale does have some plans for camp, while there’s also a mystery afoot at a monastery, and the problem of the Steel Watch. Though Tara might not be the only family popping up it seems...

Part 15 of Shades of Romance
Last Time: Gale made his admission of love, and had it returned by Astarion. They shared a very interesting night of fun, and the party dealt with Kethric, learned the identity of the Absolute, and about the Crown of Karsus atop it.
Now: As they share more moments together, will Gale be able to drop Mystra, now that he’s defied her wishes? What happens when she learns? Cazador still looms close too, and the promise of the ritual hangs overhead as well. Can Astarion drop his own thirst for power? Right now, they have other things to worry about, like a date at a potentially fun circus and a particularly nosy Tressym.

Summary
After being thrown into a world she does not recognize, Kira makes a valiant effort to land on her feet under Father Lorgan's watchful gaze, only to be displaced again, this time by a nautiloid ship. Still on shaky feet in unfamiliar territory, she struggles to keep her patience with the squabbling companions.
This work is inspired by me continually catching myself yelling "Will you all just shut up" at my PC when the tadfools are being mean to each other.

Summary
He should count his blessings. He should be content with the way the dust has settled after narrowly avoiding eternal enslavement to the Netherbrain. He still has his life, his love, and a new home. He certainly doesn't need to go out and look for more trouble, or think about things best left in the sordid past.
Then again, he was never one to pass up an opportunity. And when a rumor amongst his fellow spawn reaches his keen ears? Well, who could fault him for being tempted when the rumor speaks of a forgotten relic beneath the Grymforge, with the power to protect the bearer from radiant light? Perhaps even from the light of the sun...

Summary
Harker wakes Halsin to warn him that his urges are threatening to make him attack tonight – it’s not the first time this has happened, but Halsin, in his quest to help quell these urges has figured out that he can subdue them with sex!
I pictured this happening around the time the group reaches Rivington. Harker started resisting his urges after the first 'incident' (RIP Alfie-) and Halsin has stayed true to his word to help with his partner's afflictions.More about Harker in the Notes section.

Summary
“If I think about having sex with another person, it's not because I'm tired of you or unsatisfied with you, Gale. It's like wanting to sample different varieties of wine. But if I can only drink one vintage for the rest of my life, then it's you. You, you, you, forever you.”
Gale chuckles awkwardly. “Perhaps I shouldn't have used a food metaphor earlier.”
Estelle smiles back. “It was very…illustrative.”
--
Estelle decides to address some of Gale's insecurities in the wake of Halsin's proposition and the visit to Sharess' Caress

Summary
Wyll tilted his head with amusement clear on his features once again. “Maybe, but I want you to be comfortable with any decisions I make. I plan to stay with you until the end of my days, if it’s all the same to you.”
“.…Devils don’t age.” Astarion's undead chest fluttered. “There won’t be any ‘end days’.”
He leaned forward and whispered with a twinkle in his eye. “Exactly.”
Oh, hm.

Summary
Astarion narrows his eyes at Tav, waving one arm around to encompass the hot, humid jungle that the circus Djinni had teleported them into, the streaks of dirt on his once-pristine white shirt, and Tav himself. “How do you keep getting us into these situations?”
“I know exactly why I’m in here,” Tav tells him cheerfully, unrepentant. “But I don’t know why you got thrown in Djinni-jail.”
“Collateral damage, I suppose,” Astarion says vaguely, then seems to remember that he’s supposed to be cross with Tav and promptly frowns at him.
“Sorry,” Tav tells him apologetically. “Akabi’s face though, when we saw through his trick!” He starts laughing again.
“Ugh. I don’t know why I put up with you.”
