    Summary

    [Evening looms, and the camp settles down. Outside your tent, muffled conversation gradually gives way to a chorus of chirping frogs and the susurrus of windblown reeds.

    You lay on your bedroll and stare at the cloth above you. Beyond, the night is peaceful. Your body aches for rest, but your mind turns in useless circles. Ketheric Thorm, finally dead. Orin and Gortash, waiting in Baldur’s Gate. Wyll’s father, infected. Astarion, hunted. Karlach-

    The nocturnal chorus around you suddenly swells. It rises to fill your mind, drowning your worries under the sound of waves lapping gently at the riverbank.

    A scent plays across your face- warm, sweet, and musky. Vanilla. It’s the work of a moment to realize who, or rather what, is responsible.]

    1. Curse the illithid. How dare it touch your mind.
    2. Ignore the intrusion, try to sleep.
    >>3. Allow your thoughts to turn to The Emperor

    Summary

    Politics and schmoozing. Kronnis thought he was going to have a little adventure, as a treat. Turns out he’s just living a slightly different version of the past 5 years he spent as the Hero of Baldur’s Gate, rubbing elbows with dukes and lords. At least the Emperor is having a great time, and the Forbidden Forest has giant spiders to fry.

    Buckle up, because our boys are going to cause quite a stir in the magical community. Takes place approx. 5 years after the events of Baldur's Gate 3. Expect social manipulation, gotta use that 20 charisma score for something. Boyfriends who manipulate together stay together.

    Summary

    Fidelius was a thrall; a mind flayer's loyal servant who obeyed his master's every whim. But everything changed when the nautiloid descended. Now with his master missing and presumed dead, Del is free for the first time in decades... And he has absolutely no idea what to do with it. Aside from the lingering brainwashing and conditioning from his time as a thrall, he's also got an unwelcome passenger inside his skull, an illithid visitor in his dreams, and a bunch of weird people with their own issues following him around. If Del wants to survive this tale of tadpoles and tragedy, he has to learn to think for himself.

    NOTE: This fic is currently on hiatus, but I hope to resume in a few months once things settle down and life is less hectic.

    Summary

    “Look, it isn't what it sounds like. V's basically a sweetheart most of the time."
    “Basically a sweetheart. Most of the time." Incredibly, Barnes did not look sold.
    "Yeah," Eddie rubbed his neck, trying not to fidget. "They just need the right person, which is me. They’re not gonna steal Captain America and go on a rampage.”
    Though, once Eddie put it like that.... riding around in that pumped up pinnacle of perfect human physicality did kinda sound like V's idea of a good time.
    “Shit.”
