Summary
Many years after defeating the Netherbrain, Astarion still struggles keeping the vampires in his sanctuary in check.
To maintain order and prevent a massacre on the surface, he has enforced a strict decree: The Five-Year Purge. Only once every half-decade are the spawn eligible for release, and only after passing a series of grueling examinations.
Astarion’s latest challenge comes in the form of Thiriann, a spawn whose mind has been utterly ravaged by bloodlust.- Language:

Summary
Nearly two years ago, Astarion and Valdrey missed their chance to get together after the fall of the Absolute. When Valdrey invites him to the city of Westgate to find the Ring of the Sun-Walker, they both see it as the perfect opportunity for a do-over. If only the hardest part of all this was confessing their feelings to one another or even finding the ring itself. Now they're off on another adventure across Faerun to keep it from falling into the wrong hands.

Summary
She nods, her eyes skimming over the lists. "Oh, I'm sorry, could you have this translated? I'm afraid my Elvish isn't quite there yet."
“Elvish? That's all plain common.” he replies, as if it's the most obvious thing in the world.
“All of it?” she repeats, incredulous.
Thiriann suppresses a sigh. She'll be in for a long night.
"Alright. And for which date do you want them delivered?”
"Oh,delivery won't be necessary. I'll have them tonight."
Thiriann's eyes widen. "Tonight?" she echoes, disbelief coloring her voice. The sheer volume of the order, coupled with the strange, almost archaic language, is overwhelming. And on top of that, the list is handwritten.
She tries to read a few of the items but can't make heads or tails of it, his handwriting, while graceful as all elven handwriting seems to be, is also nearly impossible to decipher. There's no doubt this man has a history in medicine.

Summary
Astarion had a plan. A nice, simple plan: seduce Tav, sleep with her, manipulate her feelings so she'd never turn on him.
All she had to do was fall for it.
And all he had to do was not fall for her.Which is where his nice, simple plan fell apart.

Exploring Astarion's POV throughout the game while romancing Dark Urge/Tav. Canon is followed in most cases, including with lines of dialogue from the game, but Act 2 and 3 break off from canon a few times in fun ways.Content warnings are listed ahead of the more intense chapters. Overall this fic (like the game) explores what healing from abuse looks like and has a lot of references to those themes.
