Astarion One-shots
Time slips through my fingers. And I wonder. How much of me has been lost? How much of me has been found? But I am no optimist. So I wait. Dreading the day when I no longer recognise myself. Or worse, When others no longer recognise me. Will my life stop suddenly? Like a pendulum interrupted mid swing? Or slowly, like an old clock winding down. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick. Tock. Astarion x my high elf rogue Tav, Nyx Astarion x my wood elf paladin Tav, Sera Maybe some others, we'll see. Astarion and any other bg3 npc's belong to Larian Studios, thus I do not own them.

The Pale Elf
Image is concept art I did for chapter 8. Slow burn romance. Sensitive topics mentioned inside. Reader discretion is advised. If this story had a theme song, it would be more than one. Give by Sleep Token, Sweet Tangerine by The Hush Sound, and TIMEZONE by Måneskin. Tav is a sharp-witted bard with a tongue as quick as her blade. Astarion is a dangerous vampire spawn rogue, bound by shadows and scars of the past. When their paths intertwine, sparks fly. Will something beautiful bloom between them, or will it be plucked before it ever has the chance to grow? - "You are more than what he wanted you to be," I murmur quietly. Astarion's gaze cuts to mine, sharp at first and then softening around the edges. "I'm a monster," he whispers with a shake of his head. "I've lured countless people to their deaths. Innocents." "That's not who you are anymore," I insist. I give his shoulder a gentle squeeze. "You can take back the narrative. Only you get to say who you are."Complete
Astarion, Wicked Love and Heartbreaking Ends. An Astarion fanfic
From a female Tavs perspective- following off of the main story of BG3, adding my own twists to character stories though. Main focus is the building tension/ relationship with 'you' and Astarion. The conflict of it, the rawness and the excitement.
Rogue's Story: Astarion & Kirra (BG3 Romance Story)
A story about romance of Astarion and Kirra (half-elf rogue thief), during their journey together following the events of Baldur's Gate 3. CONTAINS SPOILERS from the game - for everyone who hasn't finished the game, the story describes events of the game and reveals a possible ending. Some events were made up to tell the story as I would like for Kirra to happen. Due to my limited english language skills, I used ChatGPT to adjust my story, so the text is more colorful (hope no one minds, but it helped me tell my story better).

His Treasured Spawn (Astarion x Reader)
Our female protagonist finds herself in the world of Baldurs Gate 3 and soon at the feet of our favorite sassy vampire lord. If you are looking for evil, dominant and possessive but still charming and "you are my possession, my first special spawn" caring vampire lord Astarion and...let's say eager female protagonist, this could be for you. This was supposed to be quick fun nonsense with a hint of kink, but the kink overpowered the nonsense way too fast. So depending on what you enjoy: i'm sorry or you're welcome ;) By now it's back to a mix of kink and fun. For anyone wondering: Avian Antics is my personal favorite so far. And a quick thank you for everyone reading / leaving stars. It's nice to see some enjoy my little after work project :)Complete
