Summary
Drifter made a promise, to help Roathe regain his memories. It's proving harder than he expected, but that's almost comfortingly familiar when it comes to his life. All he needs to do is throw himself at the problem, again and again and again. No matter how many times it takes and what it does to him. Or how many times he falls in the attempt. Because he knows it should be him that falls, rather than the ones he cares about.
That's his job after all. He's the one who dies.
-----
An ongoing story about Drifter coming to terms with the things he does for love.

Summary
Tav has way too many things to think about after he defeated Ketheric Thorm and learned about the Absolute at Moonrise: the Netherbrain, the Chosen Three, the illithid threat, it's enough to drive a guy to drink. And then there's his companions and becoming entangled in the mess of their lives...
So why aren't those thoughts—and not the ones of warm green eyes beneath a crimson tattoo—keeping him from sleeping tonight?
Being a former mercenary meant life was meant to be simple. Get a job, kill a man, get paid. Easy. Clean.
And then a tadpole got shoved in his brain and nothing was simple ever again.
But all of it pales in comparison to whatever's going on inside his chest, after he noticed the way a certain druid looked at him the night the shadow curse fell.

Summary
They both raged when they found the vampire again, his former lovers, these powerful wielders of magic. The best of their kind, Called to purpose by the very gods themselves—they stood at the door of the devil's throne room, lit with the colors of their will and weave, eyes blazing bright with the furious fear of love.They would tear the monster that stole him from the crust of this blackened realm. They would save him.
A gift for Moonmaiden86 for the Baldur's Gate Gift Exchange. A meditation on what might happen if A Blazing Star's Astarion got the bad ending.
Or Raphael got the good one. ;)

Summary
When Lord Enver Gortash claims a bastard-born nobleman's son (Kade'solyn Southersby) as payment for his father's debts, he expects a pliant pawn: in public, a pretty face for a loveless marriage to improve his image, in private, his own personal political weapon to wield. A protégé forged by his own hands.
But Kade is not at all what Enver expects: half-drow outcast, idealistic revolutionary, scarred by years of neglect, he carries a steady flame of defiance Gortash can't seem to drown - nor resist.
Their relationship becomes a battle of wills and reluctant fascination as Kade learns to navigate the manipulative world of Baldurian politics under Gortash's cruel tutelage.
Yet even as he's forced to play the game, he refuses to surrender his conscience - or his belief that the man who once saved him might be worth saving, himself.
CHAPTER ONE:
Kade and Gortash make their introductions and Kade begins to learn just exactly what the shape of his future will be. -

Summary

Don't let your devil kill you before I come back.

Summary
A series of fics based on Warrior of Light, Loke Ragnas and her life and loves, mostly featuring her troublemaker monk partner Jethyk Myrr. The events of FFXIV are shown loosely in the background (at first) and the fics will be mostly concentrated on Loke Ragnas and her life and choices, and her relationships with her many partners. (Yay poly life!)
Loke belongs to @TricksterLoke and Jethyk Myrr belongs to myself. These fics are all a gift of love and adoration to my partner Loke, without whom this delve into actual writing would not be possible. They support me, they inspire me and they have my back, always. This is for them. <3

Summary
Orin had watched it happen for too long now.
Her brother had been perfect. Bhaal’s favorite, murder incarnate, the master that let her study his craft by his side. Perfect.
And then Enver Gortash came along. A banite snake, driving a wedge between The Dark Urge and his duties.
No more.
She’d fix it. And then her brother would see that she was far more worthy of standing beside him than Gortash ever was.
Yes, everything would be perfect once Enver Gortash was dead.

Summary
What if Enver Gortash never left the Hells? How would have the ambitious young man evolved (or devolved 🤭) under decades of infernal influence? This is a reimagining of Enver Gortash's fate—one where he never clawed his way back to the prime material. Trapped in Avernus, and bound to Raphael, he is forced to navigate the brutal hierarchy of the Hells. Can he find a way to power in a society where humans are seen as nothing more than cattle? Or will he be a devil’s plaything forever?

Summary
"Does it excite you, Banite?" Durge's voice is low and breathy, cool air hitting heated skin from their closeness. "Knowing that I could do anything I wanted to you, and you'd be powerless to stop me?"
"Hah!" The sound is a bit too strained, too breathless, to pass as confident. "I'd like to see you try, Bhaalist."
Glowing eyes study him, narrowing as they attempt to work out his intentions. "Careful. That almost sounds like an invitation."
"Perhaps it is."

Summary
A series of very short pieces designed to provide a little slice of comfort to a gender-non-specific reader from a variety of our favourite characters~ Previously I only had them on my Tumblr but they should sit in here nicely too, for anyone who needs a little softness on a hard day.
Each "chapter" will have a different character and scenario, and whilst many will focus on physical pain there may be psychological pain comforted too, and I am very happy to take on requests for different characters and scenarios. So if you'd like to see any specific character/scenario pairing for this, please let me know and I'll write something up for you~
