    Summary

    These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.
    --
    Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.

    Summary

    Karlach glances up from the silk draped across her palms. "I thought you liked me in the leather," she says, and the grin she offers up is crooked.

    "Of course I like you in the leather," says Astarion, who has been increasingly alarmed to find that he likes her as she is, regardless of what she's wearing. "But I don't like that you hadn't the choice, you know."

    Summary

    Marcus holds the goblet up, still stinking with klauthgrass, and ponders them, clutched in the wretched claws of his undead monsters. "Well," he says, and smiles. "If you will not willingly drink it, I have a manner of encouragement."

    And then he raises his dagger, pricks his own wrist until scarlet pools over his pale skin, and lets blood drip into the goblet.

    Before he can help it, Astarion stiffens.

    Astarion has spent two hundred years with truth as a bitter enemy. Fitting, then, that his choice to say it is taken from him.

    Summary

    Distantly, she hears footsteps approaching, and looks up in hope, praying that it’s the paramedics arriving–but it’s just Higgins, shockingly normal in his suit and tie, asking, “Rebecca, someone heard shouting–” and then he sees Rebecca crouched over Ted’s prone body and gasps, the file folder in his hand fluttering to the floor.

    “Leslie,” Rebecca chokes out, “Ted’s collapsed, I need you to go downstairs and wait for the ambulance.”

    “Yes, yes,” Higgins stutters, “But–”

    Go,” Rebecca orders, and Higgins stumbles over his own feet, rushing out of her office.

    (Futurefic, set seven years after s1.)
