Summary
“So, it might be laundry day,” She said awkwardly, not looking at him.
“Uh huh…?”
“And almost all of my clothes are downstairs… not in the washer.”
Ken looked at her in confusion, tilting his head at her. When she finally met his eyes, she instantly averted them again, sternly looking down as her cheeks flushed.
“The only clean clothes I have for both of us are a hoodie and a pair of short shorts.”
---
Clothes sharing and exploring eachother, a la teenage awkwardness.

Summary
This is stupid! Why is she being so weird about some random smell? And why does it make her want to- to- do something!? Why is her brain being so weird? And why is she thinking of Okarun of all people?
She knows this isn’t what he smells like, not that his smell should matter to her anyway. But for the short time they’ve gotten to know each other, she’s only smelled the neutral scent of paper and plain deodorant. The most noteworthy spark of something vaguely burning whenever he’d get mad or moody, but that for expected for betas, or any of the dynamics. Despite having the plainest scents, there was still something unique to each person, but Okarun was as plain even for a beta. Neutral. Muted. Nothing warranting such a reaction from her, not from someone’s scent that should have no real impression on her, or anyone, really.
Right?

"What are all these girls doing here?”
Momo sighs, a headache already forming in her temples. “If it’s for the reason I’m thinking…”
“Takakura!”
“Takakura, over here!”
Aira’s eyes widen in horror. “No.”
or
Okarun joins the baseball team. Momo is absolutely, totally fine with all the newfound attention he's getting.

Summary
He hesitated, debating whether to brush it off or just tell her. The way she looked at him—curious but not teasing, genuinely interested—made him feel like maybe it wasn’t such a big deal.
“I just…” He scratched the back of his neck, avoiding her gaze. “I was thinking about… y-you know. What it’d be like to… to get kissed.”
The moment the words were out, he wanted to disappear.

Summary
The silence that fills the room is comfortable, makes Okarun feel like an ages long ache in his bones has been settled. It’s the kind of silence that takes advantage of the exhaustion clawing at his mind and breaks down any walls he may have tried very hard to put up and makes him murmur: “I think I wish I was a girl.”

Okarun still thought it to be immensely unfair that becoming a yokai didn’t come with some sort of innate knowledge of what that entailed. Or at least a helpful guide (Turbo Granny did not count).

Summary
They should have known that there would be consequences to Okarun's use of Turbo-Granny's power. It was a terrifying power that his body was only just able to sustain. They do say if you gaze too long into the abyss... the abyss also gazes into you.

“Wait…so he’s stuck like this until you get back?” Momo stares wide-eyed at Okarun as he sprawls onto the floor.
“Bummer,” he mumbles, black fingernail scratching absently against the tatami mat.

Summary
“It’s the same. Literally the same!” Ayase pointed and laughed. “You like the exact same stuff! That’s too funny.” She smacked Shiratori’s shoulder playfully.
“Wha- I- that’s-,” Takakura continued to stutter. He desperately searched for some excuse, trying to disprove something. He didn’t completely know what exactly he was trying to disprove. “She just asked me to get these!”
“Oh? Is that why you have two of the same flavor of ramune? Two for Granny?” Ayase cackled.
Takakura looked at his hands. One original flavor in one hand. Two melon flavors in the other. What the fuck?
~~~
Okarun figured the worst of The Curse (TM) was behind him, but hey, he's open to the universe proving him wrong. They say that dealing with the consequences of malevolent possession builds character.

Summary
After Gale accused Astarion of cheating at cards, the rogue picked up an interest in learning lanceboard to challenge the wizard at his game of preference. To sweeten the deal and make things more interesting, the two have agreed that the victor wins a favor from the loser.
The quiet, slow deliberateness made in each move by Gale was gone now. Astarion had fallen into the wizard's trap and he was starting to see there would be no way out of it. All of the vampire's moves would be made out of a desperate clumsy attempt to protect his king and prolong its downfall. "Razor's Edge to queen's bishop two."
He continued his oration as he reached over, an index finger resting on a pawn. "Because sometimes, that small victory is enough to give them the momentum to keep going forward. The resolve of man to survive against all odds – fascinating, wouldn't you agree?" He moved the pawn diagonal, replacing Astarion's pawn with his own, inching ever so closer to the black side of the board. Once more, his bishop had a clear shot to his Cyric. "Pawn to queen's knight seven. Check."

Summary
Mizora had made a big show of transforming Wyll. Of course she had. Mizora was one of the nastiest devils Karlach had the misfortune of meeting, and she was a cambion to boot, so she also had a complex. The past several years apparently had been taking out that complex on Wyll. So of course there was an evil black pit that consumed Wyll before turning him into a devil. It had to be performative or what was the point. Like Zariel would give Mizora a pat on the head and tell her she was a real special devil or something. Ugh.
But after the evil dark pit and Mizora’s departure, it had seemed at the time that that was that.

Summary
“I appreciate your concern, if you can call it that. But,” Gale grimaces as he peeks an ankle through the slit in the robe. One of the slits. Because there are two, one for each leg, each high enough to almost reach the hem of his briefs. “I’m a bit… exposed, don’t you think?”
Astarion tips his head, then simply reaches out to pull the fabric wider. Gale recoils on instinct, which of course just leads to the whole of his thigh being bared instead. “Well, this is an easy fix. I’ve got just the thing.”

if my heart stops beating, we'll bleed the same way by AgentBuzzkill

Summary
Lorroakan is a bastard. That’s what it all comes down to, at the end of the day.
It all happens so fast, Gale doesn’t fully realize what’s going on. His mind is pulling him from his body, observing from far away as he looks up too and his eyes meet Astarion’s.
The man he loves turned to a stranger in an instant. A sickly glow of magic barely perceptible in his eyes but for the crackling light at the edge of blood-red irises.

Summary
Astarion doesn't know what is keeping him up. Maybe it's the hard ground under his bedroll. Maybe it's the rustling of an animal in the woods, too far away to be a meal or a threat but too close to go completely ignored.
Or maybe he just gets lucky.

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 heroes that saved Faerûn have been there through most of it, helping the city get back on its feet. But now it's time to move on. Old lives and families to return to. Gale is going back to his tower in Waterdeep, back to the quiet, back to being alone; or at least, that was the plan. But plans change.
This is a story about falling in love.

Summary
In his reckless youth, Gale once read a book on forest fires.
A triptych on the theme of intimacy. Necessity begets invention, after all, and there is no force quite so creative as that of lovers inventing the art anew.
Or: two ticking time bombs make it work, and then some.
