Summary
When their trip to Shadowfell to discover the Nightsong goes wrong and Mel is forced to kill a friend, she deals with the grief that it seems like she is alone in experiencing.
(inspired by me not being able to convince Shadowheart to not kill the Nightsong and having to kill Shadowheart.)
The major character death is in fact the MAIN focus here, so read at your own risk.

Summary
"He lingers for a moment, about to launch back into the crowd when he spies the most gorgeous ribbon. A rich cerulean blue, embroidered with a dark silver string for detailing. For the moment he stops and stares, Astarion can think of nothing else besides how the ribbon would look braided into his love’s hair. Blue stained hair, faded with the many washes they would now indulge in now that they had settled down. Settled down. Astarion smiles at where he finds himself; Buying pastries and slipping away with pretty ribbons for a lover."

Summary
“Can you talk?” Simon asks. “Or are you past that?”
In response, Grace licks his neck. Okay then. Definitely past the point of coherent verbal communication.
“Stop that,” Simon says mildly, shrugging his shoulder to jostle Grace, who grunts when Simon’s collarbone thuds into his nose and tightens his grip on Simon’s shirt in mute protest.

Summary
As Court rushes over to his side, Ryland stares up at him without comprehension, eyes wide and bloodshot. "You're not Simon."
"Astute." Court kneels down next to him, feeling his forehead gently with his palm. "How're you feeling, bud?"
Ryland hums, as though thinking it over. Then, earnestly, "I'm trying to find the real world."
He hasn't got a fever. "The real world?"
"Yeah."
"And this… isn't that?"
Ryland makes another humming noise, but instead of responding reaches up into his mouth and rubs his fingers aggressively along his teeth, stretching his lips at the corners with a wet squelch.
He gives a distressed "Hnngh" and Court realizes with a jolt of sickening dread that his baby brother is high out of his mind.

Summary
“Let me be there,” he pleads. “For all of it. No more hiding. Let me take care of you.”
“It’s too much,” he says sadly. “I don’t even know what to do.”
“We’ll figure it out together.”
“It isn’t fair to you.”
“Was I fair to you when I was struggling?” He asks.
Grace doesn’t respond, knowing he has a point.
(In which Simon learns about Grace’s episodes, and figures out how to support him)
