    Summary

    “Hey, Jabber. You ever let someone else touch Mankira?”

    “Why you askin’? Don’t tell me you’re trying to get your hands on Mankira. Nah. Ain’t nobody ‘cept my mama touched these rings.”

    “..Did you want me to hold her?”

    “I knew it! You were trying to touch her! You shoulda just said that in the first place!”

    One absentminded question was all it took for the two to end up together, their treasures in the hands of the other. In the hands of their enemy.

    And it didn't feel wrong.

    Summary

    Tav smiled, holding out the flower. "Reminds me of you."

    "How utterly adorable," Astarion purred, plucking it from Tav's hand. "I'm flattered, darling."

    He twirled it between his fingers as they crossed the threshold of the abandoned apothecary.

    Suddenly Astarion didn't feel like playing this game anymore. Not because he felt guilty (he did) or because he was exhausted (he was), but because it seemed... silly in the moment to consider securing safety to protect his future.

    What future was that, exactly?

    Astarion experiences the after-effects of traumatization. Tav supports and comforts him.
