    Summary

    The man grunts as he rolls off of you. “Argh. You wretched little–”

    Your mind is wracked with pain, with flashes of memory that you can’t place. A previous life? You’re not sure. But after the sting of your heads colliding, this strain is too much for your mind to bear. Your vision teeters, hanging on by a single thread, all that’s left are that man’s intense red eyes.

    You emerge from your trance with a shaky breath. You reach for your throat, as if to make sure that it’s still in one piece, only to find it coated in a thin sheen of sweat.

    What was that.

    ___

    You saved Baldur’s Gate almost 300 years ago. You died 150 years ago. On a new life now, you find that memories from your past lead you to a specific silver-haired man. Who was he, and why won't he leave you be?

    tldr; An Elf-Tav reincarnation story where Tav dreams about Astarion in their nightly reveries and eventually seeks him out once they reach maturity. Things definitely totally go well.

    Summary

    Astarion is absolutely drunk on her blood, the exquisiteness of feeding on her the closest thing he has ever had to a religious experience. It is, in no uncertain terms, the most divine thing he has ever tasted.

    He knows he's using her. She should mean nothing to him – just one more in a sea of largely nameless, faceless sacrifices – and yet… she’s different, somehow. She’s the only one who’s cared, the only one who’s shown genuine interest in him beyond the pleasures his body can bring her.

    And if she ever found out the truth, everything would come crashing down.

    Summary

    "All of this is mine now. This dreadful palace I’ve remade. The power he so desperately wanted. The respect and gratitude of the entire city. And do you know what my greatest victory is? What I have that he never had?" Astarion’s thumb smoothed along Tav’s cheekbone in admiration.
    "You," he breathed. "I have someone who trusts me completely. Who loves me more than anything. I hope that whatever hell he’s rotting in, he sees what I have. How much more I am than what he tried to make me. I have everything I’ve ever wanted."

    After Baldur’s Gate is saved, all of Tav’s dreams have come true. Life as a Vampire Lord’s beloved pet is sweet, especially for a bard who only ever wanted to dedicate himself to music and love. And Astarion does love him—doesn’t he?

    Astarion is the most powerful vampire who ever lived, poised to rule the city from the shadows with a beautiful, obedient consort by his side who is happy to fulfill his every wish.

    Until an old threat reappears, and Tav finds himself a pawn in a larger game. Astarion would never allow anyone to steal his most precious treasure—but when it boils down to a choice between power and saving Tav, could a Vampire Lord truly relinquish power?

    Summary

    You managed to convince Astarion not to go through with the Rite of Profane Ascension. He remains a vampire spawn, and you now offer your blood from time to time to help with his sanguine hunger until a solution is found.

    Even though you had both decided to stay as friends back at Moonrise Towers, lines begin to blur once more as other cravings come to the surface… and things with Astarion are seldom uncomplicated.

    _____________

    Impatience gripped your nerves ferociously. "These things take time, Astarion."

    "Oh, my darling… I have all the time in the world, but you only have a limited supply of blood," he whispered softly and you could almost taste his taunting words.
