    Summary

    Fate, destiny - none of it seems to matter much when you're under the yoke of an endless infernal debt. Finally free, Niamh sets out to begin a new life. She will find out just how much it matters when she's abducted by mindflayers and thrown into an uneasy alliance with a group of strangers.

    Gale isn't a big believer in fate, but he does believe his death is close to hand when the illithid ship takes him. He'll learn just how wrong he is - and just how much life can offer - when he meets Niamh.

    ---

    Slowburn friend-to-lovers romance, heaps and heaps of pining, eventual smut (check my oneshots if you'd like a sample) and a bonus minor Bloodpact on the side.

    This fic is intended as a semi-novelization of the game, with some expansions to canon, some filler for plot holes, and a lot of Forgotten Realms/tabletop lore with a big focus on bards and artificers.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Beautiful full-bodied novelization of BG3 featuring a bardic Tav and a fantastic characterization of Gale.

    Summary

    Tav is desperate to know the location of the Temple of Bhaal, so she turns to the devil she knows for help. But devils like Raphael operate through transactions; everything has a price. How much does Gale's life cost? One sip of a mysterious liquid.

    A short story of Raphael and Tav lying to themselves about their attraction to one another. Smut in the final chapter.

    Summary

    In which The Dark Urge is messed up in the head, and Astarion's plan for tempting her into sex goes awry, but not entirely.

    Warning: brief, playful mentions of murder / su*cide, but no violence occurs

    Also, this is my first time ever posting here, so I'm trying to get a handle on all appropriate tags/warnings/etc. Forgive me please if I've done this wrong.

    Summary

    - "I did not like to be touched, but it was a strange dislike. I did not like to be touched because I craved it too much. I wanted to be held very tight so I would not break." - Mary Hornbacher

    Gwen had spent so long on her own, distanced from the world behind a mask of her own making, that when he smiled at her like she hung the moon and the stars, she thought she would be blinded by the need that coursed through her rotten veins. She was not a creature that deserved love, but by the Maker did she need Alistair like she needed the air in her tired lungs.
