Summary
In the Spring of 1997, Lydia goes back home to Winter River for a reprieve from city life. What she expects is lots of gingham, quiet mornings, lazy afternoons, and watching bad paranormal investigation shows with Barbara at three A.M. while they take bets about how long it'll take Delia to wake up after taking so many pills. What she gets is an important life-lesson:
Bureaucracy's a massive pain in the ass.

Summary
I’m driven once more to my sketchbook and word-weary pencil. I write this here and now, so that my resolve might have meaning.
I was wrong to believe that no one would ever cherish the dark side of my heart. But I was right to believe it would be no soul living.
In a few moments, I’ll put aside these frail tools of the artist’s trade. I’ll be faithful to the promise on my mother’s grave.
I glance up at the clock one last time. In the abrupt and deafening silence, I’m amazed. The clock has stopped ticking.
[This is a substantial copy-edit and revision of a novel-length story I wrote in 2000, back when I was an undergraduate. Since all iterations of Beetlejuice are going through a renaissance thanks to the musical these past few years, I decided it was time to give this story its due and put it on AO3.]

Summary
“Honestly, I have no idea what we’re doing. Or what comes next. But I know that this… this is nice.”
Astarion’s words echoed in your mind as you lay alone in your tent, processing the gravity and sincerity of his confession to you earlier that evening.
You had retired to your bedroll, laying down, propped up against some looted pillows and makeshift cushions to read one of the many books you had collected during your adventures, the candlelight illuminating the pages just enough so you don’t have to strain your eyes to see the words on the parchment.
You hear the soft crunching of gravel as footsteps approach your tent, followed by the sound of Astarion clearing his throat.
“May I come in, darling?” his head peeks through the flaps.

Summary
For Astarion, it starts with the inexplicable emotions inside the stare of a brass-scaled Dragonborn.
(But for Tav, it starts much, much earlier than that.)

Summary
“Now,” Astarion purrs, “why don’t you tell me why we’re really here?”
“You know why,” you groan, tightening your grip on his shirt.
Astarion laughs again, the sound impossibly infuriating. He pulls away from your neck, and his brows quirk in recognition as he drinks in the sight of you: flushed, flustered, and far more aroused than you would ever admit.“Of course I do.” His fangs taunt you from behind his lips as he grins wolfishly. “But you’ll be good and tell me anyway, won’t you?”
──────────
The moment you saw the dress in Figaro's workroom, you knew you had to have it. And, judging from Astarion's reaction to seeing you in it, the purchase will be well worth your while.

Summary
After exiting the Shadowlands, you and Astarion have begun to explore intimacy and sex again. He's spent several weeks pleasuring you with simply his fingers and tongue, but tonight he's decided he wants to move in a different direction.
A/N: This is my first cross post on AO3! Hello everyone. This is the dirtiest thing that I’ve ever written, I think. Hopefully it’s appreciated here lol.

Summary
After everything, it shouldn’t have been all that surprising, really, when Tav offered him a box tied together with silk ribbon. It was. The cover clattered against the ground, grip loosened in shock over the content’s revelation. The white, elegant fabric of the robe his fingers had lingered on the longest. The shiny glint of the carefully washed and polished jewelry he regretted leaving behind. A tray of scarlet paints and pressed powders. What a terrifying ordeal, to be known so intimately by someone other than himself.
Or, Astarion gets spoiled the way he deserves.

Summary
“I can’t yet speak its language…” Astarion doesn’t know all his powers, despite the title of Vampire Ascendant, despite having a Bride at his side. Suppose these manifest themselves surprisingly, even awkwardly… a bit of comedy and smut.

Summary
Even the masters have to start somewhere.
---
Astarion Ancunín is twenty years old, a law student, and a virgin. At least, he is for the time being.
It’s not as if he doesn’t know he’s an exceptionally good-looking young man, not as if no one’s ever asked before. Not as if he’s completely inexperienced. He adores kissing. Flushes with pleasure when someone plays with his long, elegant ears. Participates in a little hand stuff here and there. He even received head and gave it back, once, at some party.
Really, it’s simply that he’s had other things to do – other lessons to learn, other books to study, other concerns about his future position – and no one ever seemed worth sharing himself with fully. At least, not the first time. What can he say? He has standards.

Summary
“Hush,” Withers commands, and Astarion shuts his mouth. “We have little time and much to discuss. Thy hath witnessed the subjugation of the Netherbrain by Bhaal’s Chosen. This is not the fate of this world. Therefore, thy hath been sent to change the events that led to such a violent state of affairs.”
The vampire spawn is stunned into silence. Looking around, he realizes that he knows this area - it’s where he fell from the nautiloid and somehow landed without breaking every bone in his body. He’s wearing the same clothes, the same shoes, the same cheap dagger in his hand. “This isn’t happening.”
“It is.”
“You’re telling me that I’ve gone back in time nearly half a year?!”
“Yes.”
-
Astarion is sent back in time to save the world by preventing the Dark Urge from overtaking Bhaal's favored child. He isn't happy about it.
