Summary
When he opened his eyes, he was alone, sitting seiza in the center of a cold room.
And then, all of a sudden, there was a woman sitting in front of him. He trailed his eyes around the room; nothing else had changed with the woman's appearance. Which meant, by necessity…
"The mononoke…is you."
There is not always a way for the Medicine Seller to gather information by simply asking questions.

Summary
Sparks of electric fire trailed over his skin, under it, pebbled in the cool air; a thin shell strained to burst with all the things that filled him, all the fullness, the prickling sensation and heady, thrumming pleasure, the icy weight in his guts, and he could no longer distinguish between what he felt and what violated him—they were the same. Pinned—like an insect, stretched til breaking, on display.
He hadn't hadn’t been this hard in over a year. And he, Astarion Ancunín—was going to be sick.
Astarion Ancunín—pushing forty, newly escaped and without career nor job history—has just barely found his feet when his newest lover escalates their fledgling relationship far beyond what he expected to encounter outside of Cazador’s depravity. Has he made a terrible mistake in inviting Tavortheylinith Synaran—chainsmoking alcoholic, divorced, BDSM and femdom enthusiast—into his life?

Summary
The Royal Baldur Ballet's upcoming season is poised to be the most dramatic yet. With seven gorgeous ballets to stage, first soloist Astarion Ancunín is convinced this will be the season he finally shines bright enough, worthy of the rank of principal dancer. Enter Wyll Ravengard, stage left, and everything is about to change.
~*~
Wyll Ravengard is most definitely not an apprentice. Astarion knows that name, Wyll Ravengard. He won the Prix de Lausanne five or so years ago, the most prestigious competition for ballet students. Even as a student, it was clear that Wyll was going to be the ballet world’s next big star.
And now he’s here, in Astarion’s barre spot. In his rank.

Summary
Astarion raised one hand to throw his dagger at the man, only for his fingers to spasm. The blade fell from his fingers, clattering to the floor. Both his arms convulsed, and his dirk joined the dagger on the floor. His chest seized, robbing him of breath, and he could only look at the intruder in shock before he collapsed, paralysis taking hold of him.
Slow, heavy footsteps stomped toward him, no longer trying to be quiet. A thick boot nudged him in the ribs. Astarion’s mind whirled, screaming at himself to get up, get away, stab him, bite him, flee, fight, fucking anything! All he managed was a twitch of a finger and nothing more.

Could Wyll lie to him like that? Would Wyll lie to him like that?
Astarion finds that he no longer knows the answer.

Cazador is a little smarter than in canon, Astarion a little warier. This change does not improve matters.

Summary
Ulder Ravengard wants Wyll to enjoy more of the pleasures of youth, and Cazador Szarr has a solution: an enticing present for the young lord's birthday, in the form of an irresistible pale elf. To Astarion's surprise, Wyll is more interested in companionship than carnal pleasure. Their budding friendship sends ripples through the Gate's elite. But as that friendship begins to blossom into something more, the Grand Duke is called away to Elturel...

Summary
Astarion doesn't dream, but his mental recursions have gotten so elaborate to avoid reliving horror every night that there's not much difference between the nightmares he makes for himself and the ones that wait in the dark. AKA: Origin Astarion early nights in Act 1 with his initial travel companion, who notices he doesn't rest easy.

Summary
Astarion fast-talks an abnormal number of enemies into killing themselves in the shadow-cursed lands and the team makes idle (then less idle) conversation about it. It’s completely fine and doesn’t bother him at all and it absolutely doesn’t draw additional questions about why he does what he does for the team... and what they in turn would do for him.
IE: Origin-run Astarion fic because its interesting to me how the party reacts to their vampire buddy if he doesn’t have Tav to be a social buffer for him. Act 2 content and spoilers.

Summary
The love of Astarion's life has disappeared to go live in the daylight with the druids, and Astarion is stuck in the darkness once more, yearning for sunlight with every fibre of his being, while bitterly reflecting on all the things that were denied to him in the end - love, sunlight, the option to kill thousands of people and become a near-god...
Raphael knows Astarion's desperate, and comes to him with not one, but two horrid contract offers that Astarion loathes and dreads in equal measure - but the prize at the end of both are too good to turn down, and he's become too cynical to care about how much of a good idea it is to give his body to a devil for a month or two, because really, comparatively, how bad could it be?
