    Summary

    Gale was close enough to see Astarion’s nostrils flare as he took in a great, deep breath, chest heaving with the effort. His scarlet eyes gleamed in the moonlight, open so wide and staring with such rapt attention straight into his own. Through him. It made Gale feel small. And important, maybe.

    Sometimes Gale has impossibly big feelings and the only way he knows to cope is with endless rumination and denial that basically amounts to sticking his fingers in his ears and shouting. Such a coping mechanism may prove inadequate for dealing with the walking, talking, plucked-from-his-guilty-conscience fantasy that is Astarion. And it doesn’t help that Astarion has a smile that makes his heart sing, along with being, probably, the first real friend he’s ever had. (Tressyms excluded, of course.)

    An alternate universe using elements of both the novel and the Lugosi film. Inspired by my recipient's comment that Renfield is overwhelmed by Dracula's "too-strong love." Note: potentially disturbing content.

    Summary

    These days, most everybody in camp had learned to wave away Astarion’s advances with a laugh. They found the flirtation titillating, Gale figured, or a bit threatening, or some combination of the two. He wondered if anybody else found it sad.
    --
    Good old-fashioned rumination on choice and compulsion. Gale and Astarion shake off their metaphorical shackles.

    Summary

    “Of all the people I could’ve gotten stuck with, it had to be you.”

    Gale scoffs and winces when the slight motion of his chest shifts the spear again. “Begging your pardon for the inconvenience, but if it’s any consolation, the prospect of spending my last moments with you isn’t exactly thrilling for me, either.”

    Astarion crosses his arms. “Glad we agree on something.”

    ------

    Gale and Astarion are caught in a cave-in and no one has a good time. Takes place somewhere in Act 1.

    Summary

    Loki is the youngest son of the Odinsons, a family of former plantation owners who lost everything after Sherman's bloody march (or so they'd have you believe.) Tony Stark is a Civil War vet, and occasional member of a posse of train and stagecoach robbers known as the Avengers. Their paths converge on the way to a fresh start, (and maybe a few riches) in the Arizona desert.

    Summary

    Aziraphale would have missed (or perhaps deliberately ignored) the nuance of together, but Crowley was a man-shaped being of the world, and knew what was being asked. "We've been around since -- for a while," he said. "But it's not like that."

    Kurt rarely allowed himself to be seen. Even if he did, those moments were but brief and passing, like an eclipse.
