    Summary

    [COMPLETE]

     

     

    A retelling.

    “How … likely is it we can chalk this up to a naughty dream?”

    Dropping her hands to her lap, she squints at him. “Well, now that you’ve said it—not very likely.”

    He’s still half on her bedroll where’s she’d left him, propped up on one arm, other hand massaging at his throat. It takes her a while to process the wariness in his eyes—a length of time where her silent observation of him only seems to heighten his unease.

    Just to be thorough, she briefly touches her fingers to either side of her throat. When she feels only smooth skin, she sighs again, shaking her head.

    “… What are you going to do?” Astarion asks in a low and quiet voice, evidently having followed her—soundlessly in the way she knows he can be when he wants to. “What are you … What are you going to tell them?”

    Summary

    5 years following his Ascension, Astarion has reappeared to collect the debts he thinks he's owed—including Tav herself. And there doesn’t seem to be a line Astarion’s not willing to cross to have her back.

    ______

    "A few things are now abundantly clear to me.

    One, Astarion will not stop looking for me. Not after I'd denied him again, kicked him, shocked him, and disappeared in front of his eyes.

    Two, I am woefully unprepared and underdressed; with the exception of a necklace infused with divine guidance, a useless ring, and a now-soiled house coat and thin work clothes which will not withstand much at all.

    And three, regardless of how perilous, how dire my situation now is, I am livid. Beyond livid.

    Vampire Ascendant or no, he is going to pay. He will meet retribution wearing my face, he will be made to realize he cannot just have anything, take anything he wants.

    I don't want to think on the possibility of having to kill him. To end his immortal life, by one means or another. Even less do I want to think on ending my own, to escape my fate of becoming his thrall unwilling.

    But by the Gods above and Devils below, if he wants to wage war, I will finish it."

    Summary

    So Jarvis is the one who pulls her up onto her feet, presses a tool into one hand and a book into the other and tells her to create. Tells her that if the numbers and the shapes and images in her mind hurt so bad then she should build them, should give them form so that they can finally leave her alone.

    Jarvis is the one who finally teaches her how to breathe.

    Or

    Toni Stark grows up with the tale of Icarus swirling in the back of her mind. Instead of taking it as a precautionary tale about hubris and overreaching she decides it's more about the limitations of wax.

    Years later when she builds herself wings of her own she makes sure to build them out of better material.
