Will You Stay With Me? (Bloodweave)
Just before Gale could settle in after a long day of teaching, he gets a phone call from an unrecognizable number. Astarion— a name Gale hadn’t heard in decades, is in the hospital, and has listed Gale as his emergency contact.
Why was Astarion in the hospital? And why in the hells would Gale be listed as Astarion’s emergency contact? He knew he had to visit him to find out.
And for Astarion… the clerics tried all they can, but apparently, his mysterious illness is resistant to healing magic. So what the hells could he be dealing with?

Strangers, to friends, to lovers— through consistently showing up for someone when they need it, and showing exactly how necessary it is in life to be loved and cared for.
** Inspired by the lovely work Rare by nyxueaurelia! A 10/10 fic rec!**
Here’s what I got in progress!
With These Stars as My Witness, I Swear— You Will Always Be Enough for Me (3/?)
It was supposed to be easy. All Astarion had to do to pass his Astronomy course was get his project partner under his thumb. Flirt with the man, pretend to care, even feign a friendship— anything for a good grade.
Then, he’d discard him— block his number and pretend he never knew him— just like he’s done so many times before. Getting this wildly intelligent man at his every beck and call would have many, many benefits, and Astarion was nothing but a visionary.
But nothing could ever be so textbook, could it?
Gale, however— the project partner in question, and the smartest man in the Astronomy Department— had a secret. He was doing his Bachelor’s Degree all over again, in his 30’s, just because of one mistake he made in his past; a mistake he doesn’t even remember making.
•••••
One knows he’s being abused by his partner; the other doesn’t. However, both could agree on two things: the first being that getting out was the hardest thing they’ve both ever done, and the second being that they couldn’t have done it without each other.
