    Summary

    "First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."

    As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.

    "Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.

    "Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.

    "Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."

    Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.

    "A what?" he asked.

    Summary

    -

    What have the X-Men become, leaving behind their own like that? When did they get so damn righteous about where people came from and what was in their pasts? And why did that only seem to apply to people like Gambit?

    It’s de eyes, mon ami, Remy had said to him once. Dey make people uncomfortable when dey can’t see demselves reflected back. Even mutants.

    Especially mutants. Gambit was a cast off from a group of cast offs. Logan was already morbidly familiar with how lonely that felt. How cold that can be.

    Summary

    “I came here...” Dorian swallowed, with a nervousness that he was usually much better at hiding, “I came here seeking political asylum.”

    Maxwell visibly tensed, and his façade of restraint visibly cracked, if only a little and only for a small instant, “Dorian, what have you done?”
    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Dorian's return to Skyhold a half-decade after leaving it under less than ideal circumstances felt less like a homecoming, and more like a slap in the face-especially the part that involved having to show up on the Inquisitor's doorstep a hunted fugitive. The fact that Maxwell could have possibly fallen in love with someone else was just the glacé cherry on top of the terrible mess that had become his life.
