    Summary

    With a sigh, Zoro picked up his utensils and dug into the walleye, figuring he might as well stick the fork in himself. Maybe one day he would manage a normal conversation with Sanji. And maybe one day, he would find the courage to ask him out. Modern setting.

    Summary

    The very first time Sanji gets well and truly drunk while travelling with the crew is years into their journey, and somehow, it's Zoro's job to herd him home. He might be in love, and he also might have to kill him. And then feed him and rub his back.

    ...

    Sanji stared at him for a second, recalibrating. He moved further away, staggering with his typical serious look. Squaring up.

    Before Zoro could realize what was happening, the cook turned on a dime, and started tearing ass away from him in a dead sprint, still dangerously tilted to one side and threatening to plow face-first into the sand again.

    "Why?!" he demanded of the empty-ass air where the cook had been, taking off after him with a curse.

    Summary

    After the rest of their party disappears into the city on their next quest to bring down the Absolute, Astarion and Gale find themselves stranded in the Elfsong Tavern with nothing to do except needle at one another.

    Their teasing banter detours into personal terrain when the vampire discovers Gale’s divine tryst with Mystra was purely spiritual, and that his physical body has never known the touch of a lover. Intrigued by the thought of seducing a mortal virgin, Astarion proposes filling in the gaps of Gale’s education.

    Summary

    Overwhelmed with the number of godstruck Tadfools in the party, Vera (Tav) tasks Astarion with blowing up Gale's Mystra obsession before it inevitably ends up biting them all in the ass. She secretly wouldn't mind if they'd maybe bone or something. Astarion discovers Mystra fiddled Gale's memories before she ever fiddled Gale's bits and gets super aggro about that.

    This is a story about reclaiming your own narrative when someone else has rewritten your past and finding a love that celebrates who you truly are. And lots of boning.

    Canon Compliance: Happens during canon (although entirely at camp and through journal entries; not really a playthrough fic), but takes a sharp left once Astarion's discoveries are revealed. Plausible if this information were discoverable in game, but YMMW (see notes for spoilery lore details).

    Smut is very prevalent throughout, extra plot relevant (even compared to my usual) and unskippable. Check the tags and make your own decisions.

    Summary

    Gale is a survivalist romance author who writes about love after the end of the world. He's a divorcee who has plans B through G for power failure, but no Plan A for getting laid. Astarion is a former artist who decided to winter in the northern Michigan lake house he got in his divorce. He's not exactly rural-winter ready. When a massive blizzard knocks out power across the community, Gale—seeing Astarion's dark McMansion—trudges through the blizzard to prevent his idiot neighbor from freezing to death, but they'll both keep each other warm in the end.

    This low-stakes, cozy, modern, the-Ant-and-the-Grasshopper AU softens both Astarion's and Gale's traumatic pasts to gaslighting, controlling exes who leave them lonely until they discover their strange neighbor is a better fit than they had imagined.

    Note: In case you are unfamiliar with the fable of the Ant and the Grasshopper, the Ant prepares for winter by working all summer, while the Grasshopper wastes the summer singing and having fun. In the oldest tellings, the Grasshopper gets cold and hungry in the winter and goes to the Ant for food and shelter, but the Ant scolds him and turns him away. In our version, of course, the Ant is a bit kinder 😉
