Summary
It had been months. Months! Rolan thought angrily to himself. Months since she’d disappeared after the final battle. Months of dwindling correspondences and nonsensical replies. And now she had the audacity to show up in his tower looking like she’d been- well, to the hells and back- and ask for help.
Tav and Karlach come back from Avernus after many months searching for a fix for Karlach's infernal engine. Things are tense between Tav and Rolan, as he was deeply wounded by her sudden departure, but Tav hopes they can grow close again while he helps them gather what they need to fix the engine and return to Baldur's Gate for good.

Summary
"Tav wanted to point out that security was tight, and without a tadpole he’d never have made it in the tower, let alone been able to do anything under the noses of the guards and scrying eyes. He’d gone as far as he could have without suffering a potentially gruesome fate. She decided to let it rest and opt for continuing to try comforting him, unlikely as that may be."
In which Tav is momentarily distracted from her tadpole mission by complicated run-ins with Rolan. She has her hands full, but when he's not enraged she is surprised to find him of such interest to her.
This little story takes place within the events of BG3, but consider most of it a sidebar to the main quest.Series

Hold Me For an Hour (Flowers Bloom in Less) by Vampire_Mina

Summary
She ignored the heat in her face and focused on the flames dancing in his eyes. It was a sight to behold. She’d known tieflings before, sure, but Tav had never met anyone quite like Zevlor. He was regal from head to toe, dignified and powerful, and deeply loyal to his people. Though his spirit and his oath stood broken, his determination to protect the vulnerable had not faltered, and Tav found that the more her mind wandered back to him the more she pieced together the glory he must have possessed before Elturel cruelly cast him out.
This story follows Tav and Zevlor as they navigate a blossoming connection between them during some of the most important and chaotic times of their lives. Set during the events of BG3.

Summary
The smell of spiced ceremonial oils and blood reached Tav first. She stepped wearily into the clearing. There, wearing only rags and surrounded by candles in front of a massive, framed canvas, lay Zevlor. He might almost be sleeping, but his eyes stared at nothing and in his mouth, a curl of parchment—
Tav stumbles upon Orin's gift. She must reckon with the terrible sight and hope against hope that it can be rectified.

Summary
THE WILDERNESS is the first part of my kinda-canonical BG3 retelling. The Bardweave Trilogy is a story-driven, angsty, slow-build, sometimes smutty, fantasy/adventure romance with healthy doses of comedy and ensemble dynamics. PoV is half and half between Tav and Gale, with flashbacks, as well as plenty of attention paid to non-ship characters and their interconnecting relationships.
Some favorites from the comments:
- "You’ve captured their voices and mannerisms so well; even though it’s a story I know, it’s told from a fresh perspective."
- "Gale was my first romance and this is bringing me right back to the magic of that first playthrough."
- "The interwoven stories of Tav's revenge and Gale's love and loss is haunting and intriguing. And the romance is superb."
- "ELMINSTER THANK GOD (never thought id say that)"
- "and now emotionally destroyed. Roll a D6 for emotional damage."
- "My heart has now not only been broken… but crushed into dust. And blown away into the Fugue Plane."Series

Summary
I think it goes without saying that you have a room here--anytime.
When Rolan and his family offered Tav a place to stay, she thought it would only be temporary--a few days at most. But the handsome master of Ramazith's Tower, grumpy as he was, seemed to have a soft spot for this exhausted adventurer.
And a brief respite soon became a permanent residence.
