    Take me to you, imprison me, for I,
    Except you enthrall me, never shall be free,
    Nor ever chaste, unless you ravish me.
    - John Donne, "Holy Sonnet 14"

    Summary

    “I was a magistrate in the upper city before I was taken,” the elf said when they first met, his smile perfectly wide and eyes perfectly steady. They thought about the ease in which he swept them to the ground, the tips of fangs hidden behind his lips, the sunlit dagger flashing at his hip— and they also smiled, and let it slide.

    “Sure. What a wonderfully reasonable occupation to have.”

    Five times Astarion withholds the truth, and one time he does not.

    Summary

    "Astarion?" Gale voice cuts through the darkness. “Are you quite alr–"

    Shadowheart doesn’t see it but she hears it: the sudden sip of breath that comes right before a kiss. A muffled gasp that melts into pleasure. Then, two lungs in tune with each other, sharing space, sharing breath. She presses her gauntlets to her lips and feels their steel warm to her skin.

    Lady of Sorrows guide her... had she ever been kissed like that?

    Summary

    Gale had grown used to exchanging with Astarion: sate one hunger for another. That night, however, as the thrum of the orb demanded it be fed, Gale found himself pleasantly surprised when the rogue arrived with a companion in tow.

    "The witching hour approaches, and at last, my patience has been rewarded with the company of not only my pale seraph, but a mysterious second," Gale said. "I pray you come bearing a gift under your feathery cape."

    When Astarion replied, his words carried their typical sultry cadence as he cocked his head to the side. "My, my, waxing poetry tonight, are we? Are you considering hanging the wizard robes and taking up a career as a bard?"

    Summary

    “I hardly think she knows my name, Astarion. If this is your idea of a prank, it’s not a particularly clever one.”

    “What, you don't think a high-born drow woman like Minthara might see a useful, pliant wizard like yourself and see a willing pet? Darling, you might have to consider her insistence on denigrating you at every turn is just her form of flirtation. She certainly seems to pay more attention to you than the others. You'd be her type.

    “I would ask what you mean by that, but I don't think I'd want to hear the answer."
