Summary
"Oh, and there is one more thing" he says suddenly, as if he has just thought of it. "It is a masquerade after all, and we must adhere to convention, as much as you might abhor it in this case." He dispenses with his glass, then indicates to her that she should follow him.
He leads her through to the adjoining bedchamber, and stops at a table by the large mirror. It's deliciously warm here too, thanks to the second smaller fire, burning in its grate. The rug beneath her feet feels plush and she pushes away a sudden desire to remove her shoes and feel its soft, thick fibers between her toes.
"I" he says, and the pride, the delight is thick on his voice, "have taken the liberty of making our masks."
Morgayne and Enver prepare to attend his masquerade party.

Summary
There are sounds too, as well as words; laughter, the clink of a glass, the periodic snap of a lighter, the chime of her Domin's data-slate. Boots removed and dropped to the floor, the rustle of fabric as they adjust their positions on the large chaise that Kibellah knows they will be sitting on.
And then there are less words, and more sounds, sounds that tell her it is time to move further away and give them their privacy.
That is the path she would normally take.
Tonight, however, she finds her curiosity choosing another.
Kibellah watches Nora von Valancius and Jae Heydari together.Series

Summary
"You have been busy" she says at last, her small smile returning.
"Am I not always?"
"You like to think that you are" she retorts.
He chuckles to mask the clench of his jaw, the briefest flash of amused irritation. "I gave it a name" he says next.
"Oh? Do tell."
Enver gives Vivette his finest gift.

Pulling the Threads by flamemittens

Summary
It really is a very fine coat indeed.
And it is currently being worn by an otherwise bare-skinned Jae Heydari.
She’s pulled it from the back of a chair and draped it over herself, and now stands in front of the large mirror on one side of the bedroom. Her gleeful smile widens as she admires her reflection. She pulls the wide collar up against her throat, turns this way and that to take herself in. What little light there is catches on the silver of her neck implant and the gold embellishments on the fabric as she moves, and the fingers of her metal hand click over the buttons and other metal adornments.
It suits her, Nora thinks, from her position on the bed.
Jae tries on Nora's newly tailored Lord Captain's coat.

Summary
However new this…friendship—yes, she thinks that is the right descriptor, or at least it will do for now—of theirs is, it is one that gives Nora more than she cares to admit. A thread back to the past, a low lumen light washing over a memory. A space between filled, for a time at least.
She watches as Jae brings the lho stick elegantly balanced between her index and middle fingers to her lips, and takes a long drag.
“Tell me something about Efreet” Nora says, to dispel whatever she is feeling, to not have to follow it back to the source.
Nora von Valancius and Jae Heydari spend an evening together.

Summary
Regardless of whatever writhes in her skull, this is a gift. It must be.
All cannot be lost.
Four tieflings survive a nautiloid crash that will come to be infamous across the Heartlands, scattered across a beach. When they come together, their primary goal is to survive their so-called ocular occupants—but as their journey takes them into ever deeper dark, it becomes increasingly apparent that their lives have been intertwined for far longer than the illithid ship's ill-fated voyage.
The battle to make it to Baldur's Gate will see hearts scarred and mended; minds excavated; shadows drawn to the fore, whether for better or worse. In time, they must ask and answer: what power is worth chasing? Which things are worth having, and which are better off lost?

Summary
Valas realizes somewhere between strikes, his blade fast, his hands red, life spilled warm across his feet—he’s curious. He hasn’t felt curious, not for ages, not like this.
He’s killed for others before, of course, so many times. For coin, or for practice. For pleasure. It’s often boring, the reasons one might hire the services of a murder god’s cleric: Removal of a threat. Enacting revenge. Indulging envy, or rage, for those held back by coward’s hands. The first few targets for this man, the one he’s killing for tonight, had fit that first neat category. The next few, though, cried for Bane as they died, and begged forgiveness for their failures. The ones after that, Valas hadn’t been able discern a reason for at all, no matter how much he questioned them, snapped their fingers and drove his blades into their sweet, soft places.
He doesn’t understand this Enver Gortash. He’d like to.
Valas’s first impressions of Gortash.

Summary
When Castilla von Valancius disappears somewhere in the Atlas Reach star system, Calligos Winterscale's world is split into before and after. Before she vanishes, in the months after her Magnae Accessio, she breaks the bounds of the possible and captures his interest, his curiosity.
After she is reported missing, Calligos realizes she claimed so much more of him than that—and he will tear the Koronus Expanse apart to recover what he has lost.
(Dual timeline means double the yearning and double the angst, right?)
[ Castilla von Valancius by the ever-brilliant InfernalDaydreams ; prose by NadasDirthalen. <3 ]

Summary
As I was making my way through the front doors of the opera house, I collided with a young man who was making his way out. He was ever so apologetic, and chastised himself for his clumsiness. I assured him that I was alright, and he said he was relieved to hear it. Then he bowed deeply and said, “Enver Gortash, at your service…”
Excerpts from the diary of Lady Wisteria Jannath. Based on the "Perfumed Days, Passionate Nights" letter.
