My Folly Continues ch 3 Sneak peek

Just a little sample of whats going to happen in the third chapter of "My Folly Continues". Warning...we're going to a dark place...so if things like Sex work, dubious consent, toxic abusive relationships, suicidal thoughts, and borderline sexual assault trigger you, please skip this and have a lovely day! Those of you who want some good angst and can handle it, hop aboard the pain train! --- https://archiveofourown.org/works/62736592/chapters/160609435#workskin

Link to the work in question. Summary: Gale is a prostitute who got away from Vampire Ascendent Astarion. Mystra punished him by helping break his chain and giving him the ability to be in the sun, but she kept him a spawn and made the orb crave magical items again. Summary for this chapter: Astarion pays for a night with Gale, and it doesn't go as either of them plan. In this specific snippet, Gale has Disassociated during the sex and retreats to his inner Mind Palace for some relief. Rated: E for sexual content and lots of angst and suicidal thoughts, nothing too bad in this snippet though --

Gale had long since stopped feeling his body. He didn’t need to be in it at the moment…if he could help it, he would never return to himself again.

As he laid there, letting Astarion use him…as so many others have before…his mind wandered through the safe palace he’d crafted for himself…his mind palace. He retreated here when it got too difficult for him. Let his body go on autopilot so he could maintain some sense of sanity.

His mind palace…it always took the form of his tower in Waterdeep…his library. The same place he’d once pulled Astarion to in an illusion. He gushed about his books, the view, and his desire to share all of it with his beloved.

…before he failed to save Astarion from himself.

In a way…this was his fault…he deserved this…deserved the cards dealt to him. He didn’t stop Astarion…he should have stopped him. But in his desire to please…to keep Astarion at his side…he stood back and let him do as he pleased…just like now.

He was so afraid of losing Astarion if he spoke out against ascending…he was willing to turn away and allow him to commit atrocities…kill thousands to gain a power that no one should weild.

And he fucking lost him anyways.

If Gale was present, he would laugh. But no…in the distance he could still feel Astarion inside him…moaning, spitting vile insults, ripping and biting and tearing him as much as the contract allowed.

He couldn’t come back yet…no…he didn’t want to return yet.

Let me stay here…let me stay in Waterdeep for just a little while…let me pet Tara and read my books and see my mother in the morning. Please…let me be anywhere but here…with him…

Let me go back in time…

Let me speak up and stop him from destroying us both…please…

Astarion…I want Astarion back…please…please…PLEASE!! Give him back! I want to be with him in Waterdeep! I want to bring him here with my books and my Tara and my view of the harbor!

I want to make love in my bed…with him, only him!

No more strangers…no more pain…no more hunger or orb…

Please…I can’t take any more…

He felt the tower fade around him…felt the lights shift from the warm glow of sunset to the cold white of candlelight. He saw his library shift into the shelves of his prison…filled with books that were a mockery of true literature.

And he felt pain courseing through his body as the Ascendant’s panting form appeared above him.

He was coming back…

No…no please….let me stay…just a little while longer, please! I don’t want to go back…I can’t be with him!

I’ll die!!

I want to die! Please just kill me! Please KILL ME!

“Please…” Gale mumbled out into the ceiling…

Astarion stilled, glancing at him with a raised brow, “Please what?”

Gale’s eyes never met his…they stared still…vacantly…like they’d been doing for a while now. But the words never came. Gale closed his mouth…so Astarion rolled his eyes and continued using him.

A single tear managed to slide down Gale’s cheek…going unnoticed as what he wanted to say rattled around in his brain…unable to come out hrough the fog of his mind.

Please kill me…

Cheaper by the Dozen Bloodweave edition

In my Bloodweave pregnancy fic, I jokingly said that Gale and Astarion are singlehandedly trying to repopulate Faerun... ...and that got me thinking of a sequel idea whenever "Lets make this duo a trio" is complete. Literally Gal and Astarion have 12 kids, Gale's no longer teaching and is instead a successful author and Astarion has taken over the clothing shop entirely. Then Astarion gets a summons from Baldur's gate that tells him he has inherited the title of Lord from one deceased Cazador Szarr as well as the massive estate.

Fast forward to Astarion and Gale packing up the kids and moving out to their mansion to figure out what they want to do with it.

I think it'd be such a cute and funny little side story. Probably won't ever get to it, but I just love the idea of Gale and Astarion, the two men who either hated kids or never saw themselves as fathers, having WAY TOO MANY KIDS XD

Why is this actually right? Neve had WAAAAAY more chemistry with Bellara than Lucanis.

Lucanis and Davrin had more chemistry than Lucanis and Neve.

Chinchilla Gale supremacy

Ok...so as I write my little Fox x Bunny bloodweave fic, I started thinking... We all collectively agreed somehow that Gale is either a dog or a rabbit when it comes to animals. And while I easily see him as both, I prefer him as a bunny. Then I just happened to see a cute chinchilla video and... What about Chinchilla Gale? Chinchillas are sociable, adorable, and apparently monogamous (so a beast-kin version would probably be a romantic much like Gale.) They're gentle and chill, but can be startled easily.

They're pretty much just rounder fluffier rabbits...and what is Gale if not a round fluffy rabbit?

SO yeah....Chinchilla gale. Don't ask how I came to this conclusion, I just want a round fluffy Gale rolling around in some dust while Fox Astarion tries desperately not to just chomp a mouthful of that soft soft fur.

White winter Hymnal (Sneak peek)

(I'm working on a Fox!Astarion and Bunny!Gale au as well, Not sure when it'll be out, but I'll post a link when its done. Till then have a sneak peek!) Pain…blood…all that he could feel as he darted through the black forest, leaving a messy trail through the snow. The cold blizzard winds whipped through his silvery curls and through the fluffy ears pinned back in pain as he forced himself to keep running.

He’d gone so far from the den…so far…but his kin could still be hunting him.

So, he had to keep going.

But GODS it fucking hurt!

He had to slump against a tree to catch his breath, whining lowly when the pain increased as the adrenaline wore off. His bushy white tail curled around his thigh, tucking between his legs…its once-pristine fur was matted with mud and gore from having to fight his way out.

This was it…he was going to die here.

He escaped his clan…escaped his Alpha…all so he could die in a snowstorm.

Well…at least he’d perish on his own terms for once…at least he got to make one choice of his own before he died.

He…Astarion Ancunin…former member of the Szarr clan…and terrified fox-kin on the verge of death…this would be his legacy he left on the world.

He laid down in the snow…whimpering in pain, but refusing to cry.

It would all be over soon…

CRACK!

Rustle…

His ears barely twitched…something was coming…

Perhaps a wolf or bear had followed the scent of his blood and was about to finish him off. He growled low in his throat, hackles raised as whatever made that noise came closer.

Well? Get on with it!

“Hello?”

The voice was deep…warm…melodic with a posh accent. And as Astarion’s vision began to grow black, he saw a shadowy figure walking towards him…snow crunching under leather brown boots as Astarion barely caught a glimpse of purple before he fell over.

“Oh my!” Hands grasped at him, but Astarion hadn’t the strength to fight them off before his world went dark…

First post here, but I've been around for a bit.

I've joined the "Gale in the Wavemother robe" supremacists! Here's my contribution. Please give it a look and feel free to throw tomatoes if it displeases you!
