    Summary

    Gale was close enough to see Astarion’s nostrils flare as he took in a great, deep breath, chest heaving with the effort. His scarlet eyes gleamed in the moonlight, open so wide and staring with such rapt attention straight into his own. Through him. It made Gale feel small. And important, maybe.

    Sometimes Gale has impossibly big feelings and the only way he knows to cope is with endless rumination and denial that basically amounts to sticking his fingers in his ears and shouting. Such a coping mechanism may prove inadequate for dealing with the walking, talking, plucked-from-his-guilty-conscience fantasy that is Astarion. And it doesn’t help that Astarion has a smile that makes his heart sing, along with being, probably, the first real friend he’s ever had. (Tressyms excluded, of course.)

    Summary

    A bottle of Ogdens, a hand of poker and a silly bet. NC17 for implication. My first attempt at MWPP, I’d welcome any observations.

    Summary

    An alternate universe using elements of both the novel and the Lugosi film. Inspired by my recipient's comment that Renfield is overwhelmed by Dracula's "too-strong love." Note: potentially disturbing content.
