Summary
Set about ten years before BG3’s events, Cazador’s ritual is still in the lengthy preparation stages, and none of his ‘children’ have the necessary scars yet. They are, however, already tasked with securing targets for their master and luring them back to the palace. Astarion meets Sir Loriel, a wealthy half-drow new in to Baldur’s Gate, at one of Cazador’s numerous gatherings, and there is mutual attraction. This story is about how they navigate their relationship and exactly what that relationship is, in the context of their various constraints, needs and vices.
This was initially intended as a loose plot just to hold a bunch of kinky smut scenes together. But it’s grown legs. Expect the spicy stuff to appear early ish and grow in intensity/extremity, and in perhaps unlikely circumstances (leave your disbelief at the door, please; don’t need none of that here! Lol), and please bear with the plot exposition :)
Lastly, do note the tags if there are things you’d prefer not to see. I will flag warnings in the notes at the start of each chapter. First chapter doesn't need them, but smut and non-con/violence start in the second.
(There's a pic-fic to go with this! https://archiveofourown.org/works/70822496)

Summary
I tend to assume that removed bits of vampires rot and degrade at a similar rate to those of living humanoids, and at least as fast as it takes for them to replace whatever part it is through regeneration. But what if that isn’t how it works…?
Otherwise described as: Cazador finds a use for Astarion in a manner other than stalking the streets for victims.AU notes: no rite, no absolute.
There will be 3 written chapters, and I'll add images as separate chapters so you can avoid scrolling to such things if preferred :) Which means the finished story will be listed as 6 chapters in total.
Warnings for dubious use of compulsion and other vampire abilities, questionable physics, shady medical practices, problematic donor arrangements, suspect motivations, improbable timescales and debateable plausibility even within universe. It's also generally unpleasant and rather squicky. Frankly, the author just apologises for everything below this!

Summary
He wasn’t sure when he’d decided that what he needed more than anything was a companion. Someone to talk to. Even if that someone was something he’d created. And to that end, he’d been working tirelessly on an AI companion, carefully programmed to his specifications, built to understand him.
Sometimes, he truly rued the day he’d decided to give this thing a personality, but what good was a companion without one?
And so, AI-STAR-10N - or Astarion, as he’d decided to call him - was supposed to be his companion. It had been slow going; he’d carefully fed it bits of information over the last ten months, building up its memory of the world. History, science, philosophy - he’d left no stone unturned, trying to make sure his companion - his friend - would be worthy of conversing with.
Or : Gale flies too close to the sun.

Thor Odinson had it all.
His own marriage to Loki Laufeyson, however, appeared to be a carefully preserved fairytale.
At least, that's how it looked from the outside.

Summary
“What do you want from me, Raphael?”
Raphael’s smile was slow and in tandem with the straightening of his spine. His sun-browned hands positioned themselves behind his back.
“I have asked myself that very question over and over again, thinking the answer haunting me could not be such a simple thing. It could not be rooted in such base instinct. Perhaps amidst the chaos of that fateful day, you managed to charm me. But I cannot deny what I am, Astarion, and what I can and cannot resist. The answer is always you. I want you.”
—
Astarion suffered many constants at the aquarium: constant boredom, constant awestruck faces pressing against the glass, constant hunger, constant dread of what torment Cazador would bring next…and the constant appearance of the handsome man he had saved four decades ago. The same man that shook hands with Cazador. A man that wasn’t a man at all.- Language:

Summary
Formerly "Flowers for Degon"
In which Astarion blackmails the half-goblin leader of some strange tadpole-worshiping cult into being his personal blood bag.
He honestly wouldn't have bothered. But the thing looks so godsdamned similar to Cazador that he's hard pressed not to keep it.
The arrangement is fairly simple. Degon caters to Astarions every whim, thought and demand... and they get to live another day.
Everyone at camp seems to think Astarion has taken things too far.
But if the masochistic little shit likes it, well then what's the issue, Darling?“Not to worry, my dear.” He paused at all the right moments, purring in a sinful, cruel drawl; every syllable dripping with disdain. “I know exactly what titillates shit-eating, half breed degenerates like you. I have years and years and years of experience with this sort of thing.”
Porn with minimal plot to just set things up.
full of the lowest hanging fruit, excessive Astarionisms, inconsistent accent indicators. This is my "smoke a bowl and start typin" fic. It probably shows
Proper smut starts in chapter 3
but individual kinks will be listed at the start of each chapter.Bookmarked by alwaysherother
