    Summary

    Some part of him could picture it then, could imagine telling her everything - speaking til dawn on his whole history. Spending the next day in this same spot, diving into what he knew of hers. Asking how it felt to gore that bard. Instead, he mirrored her smile - his own wicked grin for seducing and scheming.

    “I’ve wanted to taste you since I first felt that pretty neck under my blade.”

    And as her head fell back in a laugh, the white expanse of her neck on full display at his easy, overused line, he watched the golden girl fall into the palm of his hand.

    ---
    COMPLETED.

    Astarion had known the woman's face immediately - Halia Dhune, the golden daughter of Baldur's Gate. The princess of the upper city. How many times had Cazador sent him after her - wanting to claim the socialite as a trophy to add to his awful collection? At least now he wouldn't have to go back to his master empty handed, should the tadpole situation not work out in his favor.

    (or: what if the Dark Urge was a noble woman, perfect and popular, and her father's favorite fox in the henhouse. and of course, what if our dear vampire knew of her before the crash?)

    Summary

    After Pinnacle Station, Shepard wins an isolated retirement property on Intai’sei—a joke prize, until it isn’t. Between missions and across years, the place becomes a fixed point in the chaos: a silence she returns to, a future she dares to imagine.

    Through war, death, and resurrection, Kaidan remains the center of her gravity—and she his. This is the story of what happens in the spaces between. The things unsaid, the moments unseen, and the quiet intersections where love holds steady, even when everything else breaks.
