Summary
Astarion found himself watching Gale more than he was watching Dirty Dancing. He looked quite young to be getting divorced, he thought to himself. The gossip in him was dying to know the full story, but he knew full well that it would be really stupid to start prying into a practical stranger’s personal life.
As he was about to ask, because fuck it, he was probably never seeing this man again, Gale reached below his seat and grabbed a notebook and pen from a satchel. A satchel. The man was going on what amounted to a mid life crisis of a holiday (or, to be fairer to him, a third of a life crisis, because he looked to be about Astarion’s age), and he’d brought a satchel?!
**
Lawyer Astarion Ancunín had a chance encounter with film professor Gale Dekarios on a flight to New York. And then another chance encounter at a bar. And when he found out he’s in the middle of a messy divorce, well, what was Astarion to do? Aside from sleep with him, which was obviously a given.
Astarion didn’t believe in love stories. But life had accidentally thrown him into one of his own.

Summary
Baronet Dekarios is a man of science, but the supernatural is as much a science as anything else, isn't it? He's also a man in need of a new patron. So, when an old university friend offers entrance to a party held by one of England's most secretive societies — a club of the country's richest men, rumored to dabble in the occult and the satanic — he sees the opportunity to kill two metaphysical birds with one stone. And all he needs to do to gain entry is secure the approval of the club's mysterious leader, the enigmatic Lord Ancunin.

Summary
Gale felt himself relax. For the last few days, he’d been concerned that Halsin might not like an idea they’d come up with, or that it didn’t quite align with his vision. Gale realized then Halsin didn’t have a vision.
He trusted Gale.
Which — historically, an objectively stupid thing to do.
or: instead of blackstaff, gale travels to reithwin to build a school as halsin oversees the village's recovery. in the years that come, a lot of things change — most notably his relationship with halsin.

a crooked touch (Astarion x m!Tav) by eyes_of_the_lamb
Fandom: Baldur's Gate (Video Games)
16 Nov 2024
Summary
“Make it hurt, then. Kiss me like you want to kill me.”
“I can do that.”
Two broken stars in a decaying orbit, passing closer and closer together until the inevitable, devastating collision.
Or, Tav is fucked up and down bad for Astarion, who doesn't quite see the appeal (but he's getting there). Sexual frustration, sloppy handjobs, a heavy dose of masochism, and way too many failed Insight checks ahead. Tav falls first, Astarion falls harder (eventually).
Or, a tragic-but-hopeful romance told through a series of incredibly ill-advised sexual encounters.
If you want to read a story where Astarion is sweet from the start and Tav is here to fix him, this isn't the one. If you want to read about two terribly broken men spending a good long while making each other worse before they make each other better, this might be for you. If you thought the in-game romance was a little too easy and it should have been ten times more painful and difficult to convince Astarion he's worthy of love, this is definitely for you.
Set during the canonical events of Baldur's Gate 3.
