    Summary

    NOW WITH COMISSIONED ARTWORK!

    TLDR Clive Rosfield (Final Fantasy 16) post game (instead of dying on the beach) wakes up in Faerûn as a Paladin (Baldur's Gate 3). A slow burn romance after trauma and loss (enemies to lovers fic if you squint). Karlach/Dammon and Sebastian/Astarion have companion pieces in this collection that correlate with this.

    When Clive Rosfield sacrifices his life to free his homeland from a corrupt magical order, he expects death, not rebirth in a world that is not his own. Awakening in Faerûn with a mind flayer parasite in his skull, Clive is forced into uneasy alliance with a band of strangers fighting to stop an Elder Brain from enslaving the realm.

    Clive meets Shadowheart, a guarded cleric devoted to a dark goddess who demands obedience and sacrifice. As she struggles to reclaim her past and defy the faith that shaped her, Clive finds himself drawn to her. As gods manipulate mortals and power threatens to consume them, Clive and Shadowheart must learn that true freedom is not merely breaking chains but choosing each other in a world that would use them as weapons.

    Reborn is a crossover romantic fantasy about redemption, resilience, and daring to hope again.

    Summary

    It's been weeks since you attended the Arcane Trickster concert, and spent the night with the lead singer of the multi-platinum band. It was something you'd fantasized about, certainly, but never had any intention of doing. Not until you met Astarion Ancunin up close. The strange red eyes, the perfect body, and the voice that practically drips danger are enough to entice anyone into a night of wantonness, but that's not what's had you thinking of little else for weeks.
    It was connection.
    That strange, puzzle of a man intrigues you as few ever do. And you must do a little something for him, too, since he's ensured you'll be front and centre at their next concert.

    The question is; can that magical night be reproduced, and even if it could - whatever could the two of you be to each other?

    Summary

    “This is a dream.” She quietly laughed to herself. Of course this was a dream. Everything that had happened was absolutely ridiculous. Now, her brain presented her with some beautiful man she’d probably seen in a magazine somewhere. She remembers the 7-11 and thinks she must have tripped over the curb and knocked herself out. She’d never had lucid dreams before, but that had to be what this was. Nothing else made sense.

    “Hello? Are you listening to me?” The man interrupted her thoughts, “I’ve cornered one of those brain things. Can you help me fight it?”

    Erin looked toward where he gestured, then back at him. She shrugged and said, “Why not. None of this is real, and I’ve already ruined my shoes.” She laughed again and started walking toward the bush he’d indicated.

    Summary

    Durge/Tav gets drunk at the Tiefling Party so instead of sex, Astarion and Tav spend the night (lightly) roasting their companions.

    After accepting Astarion's invitation to share a second night with him after the Tiefling party winds down, Durge (named Tav) got nervous and accidentally overdid it on the drinks. Astarion decides not to sleep with Tav while she's in a drunken state, but that doesn't mean he won't have a little fun by getting her to spill her true thoughts about their companions. Instead of a night of passion, they have a silly night of teasing, laughing, and snuggling... and maybe some catching feelings.

    This will be a chapter in a long fic I'm writing of the entire game story. Will share some chapters ahead of the full fic if I like them a lot as standalones. Thought this one came out cute, I hope you enjoy it!

    Follow up: Wrote another story about the morning after this scene from Astarion’s POV. It’s called Missing the Sunrise.

    Gender is not specified anywhere in this chapter, the following story Missing the Sunrise does use she/her pronouns for the Tav.
