Summary
No one's ever seen her in daylight; most people think of her as just some horror story to keep unruly teenagers off the streets at night. But now, now that I've caught her attention…
I know she's real.
The storm-witch. The half-drow with the bluest eyes you'll ever see, her hair a mixture of darkest black and purest white, her dagger as red as the blood that stains it, and her magic crackling around her like a thunderstorm.
And alongside her… a displacer beast, the world around the demonic cat shifting and warping.

But behind closed doors, the facade cracks and crumbles; the smiles are hollow, and the rules are rigid enough to break even the most resilient soul.
When the Companion turns out not to be the sign of hope the city took it for, but a devil's construct instead, Elturel is besieged by cambions, imps, and many other monsters.
With the Matriarch dead, the Erbil family scrambles to pick up the pieces, regroup, and prevail, as they have always done.

Summary
When Rolim wakes up after the crash of the Nautiloid, he can hardly believe the reality he finds himself in.
The compulsions Cazador forced on him are gone—and somehow, the sun no longer burns his skin.
But freedom comes with a price: an illithid tadpole now burrows through his grey matter and with it, a creeping loss of his vampiric strength and instincts.
He soon finds himself among a ragtag group of survivors, all infected, all searching for a cure. One of them stands out more than the rest: Astarion.
Handsome, sharp, and—unlike most—genuinely respectful of Rolim's boundaries. While Shadowheart hides her own secrets and Lae'zel simply doesn't care to ask, Astarion sees Rolim's need for space... and honors it.
As their journey twists deeper into uncertainty, a question begins to take shape:
What will become of them all when the fate they seek to change refuses to be rewritten?AU where Astarion is a 239-year-old mortal elf and magistrate, and Tav is the spawn!

Our friends insisted on throwing us a party at the Elfsong later, but Vincent and I also have something else on our minds.
Something for just the two of us.
We decided to get a tattoo.Series

Summary
Eight years.
It took Domino eight years to stay sober for more than a few months at a time. Now, fourteen months clean, he's preparing to return to the city where it all began.
Baldur's Gate—where a nosy, one-eyed bard once warned him to lay off the liquor lest a mind flayer found the last scraps of his grey matter worth eating.
Domi had dismissed him as another bleeding-heart know-it-all.
But the bard had been right. So Domi got help. He got sober.
And now he's going back to find him.
To say thank you.
