    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.

    Summary

    Shadowheart refuses to heal the wounds she receives during the battle for Moonrise Towers, partly as self-flagellation for rejecting Shar, and partly because she still can't admit that she now draws her divine magic from Selune, and won't use it if she feels like she doesn't have to. Jaheira seeks her out to thank her for her role in winning the battle and ends up making Shadowheart accept healing, and then giving her a bit more on top of that.

    Summary

    "New round here, right? Living down here in the Discards is hard enough without the shit-storm of winter and all it brings. You a Psion? I'll sell you some suppressors. Trade you for a battery. Wait - you got some food? Gave my last to that Carver Dolly for a tune-up. Hard getting room with her lately, though. Heard she's running with the rebs. Y'know. Princey's Pawns."
    ----

    Doll Parts is a tale of the intertwined lives of survival in a tumultuous winter beneath a dystopian Vlaakith Empire.
    Of a formerly Mastered Doll, Vanquish, now a Carver, living amongst the lowest of society in the Discard Downs.
    Of a disgraced old githyanki, Voss, adjusting to civilian life after most of his spent inside prison.
    Of an heir to the Empire conspiring to tear it all down from within, Orpheus, if he could just open his eyes for long enough to care.

    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!
