    Summary

    G.Dekarios is a pompous ass of a scholar who writes almost exclusively in rambling, overenthusiastic tangents, in Mira's opinion. Incidentally, he's also her favourite writer. When he takes a teaching position in the University of the library she works at, she finds herself face to face with the man of her self-spun myth. Charted stars align, and Mira meets Gale, of Waterdeep.

    Summary

    Three years after domestic violence left her scarred inside and out, Ksenia Gilabel is doing fine for herself. Sure, she dropped out of Music & Performance at the University of Ohgma, but she’s not just some dropout. She runs the weekly karaoke night at local pub The Harpers, works as a server and is learning to take the whole place over when current owner Jaheira retires. She works with Jen, Karlach and Astarion, friends who are so close they may as well be family. She’s even returning to U-O part time to get the business skills needed to run the venerable old pub that has given so much to her.

    She hasn’t dated since her asshole ex re-arranged her face, but she has a collection of vibrators and that’s all a girl needs, right? Everything is going fine.

    Until, one day, she rescues a cat and everything turns upside down.

    Summary

    The wrong man lived.

    Gale Dekarios sacrificed himself to save the world and left his true love, Rowan Ravenshade, behind to survive the aftermath- hollow, grief-stricken, and tucked away inside her uncle's manor while he sells her future to the highest bidder. She had nothing left. No companions. No allies. No one to come to her aide.

    On the other side of the city, Enver Gortash is dealing with a Parliament full of potential enemies, a succession crisis he can no longer ignore, and a list of eligible bachelorette's that he finds increasingly offensive.

    All except for one.

    He remembers the weight of her as she fought him. The sound she made when the world almost ended before their eyes. And for the last two years, he's had to convince himself that it hasn't affected him. That he has not thought about it since.

    But karma comes for those who lie to themselves.

    A "political marriage." A problem solved. A wife who will almost certainly attempt to murder him at the earliest available opportunity.

    Enver Gortash has survived worse.

    Probably.

    Summary

    It's finally over: the Absolute has been defeated and Baldur's Gate has been saved. A month after the final battle, everyone's gone to pursue their own destinies - everyone but Tav. She might be home now but she's never felt more lost, struggling to pick up the pieces of the life she left behind.

    Rolan got everything he wanted: his family is safe and sound, and he is the new Master of Ramazith's Tower. He won, and all he has to do now is prove that he's up to the task. It should be easy, so easy - but then why does he feel like he's constantly failing?

    One night they meet again, and a proposition rekindles the spark between them.
    But when Tav's world crumbles around her and secrets are revealed, it's Rolan's hand she reaches for. Will he be there to catch her?

    (or, Tav meddles and Rolan stands his ground)

    Summary

    Commander Amber Shepard finds herself in a strange new world without her squad and with no idea how she got there...

    This is an AU where, under mysterious circumstances, the crew of the Normandy, past and present, appear in Stardew Valley. Very Canon divergent, very for funsies. There IS a plot, and there WILL be angst, but there will also be fluff, and sort of slice of life styled stuff as well.
