BG3 Scents (Headcanons)
Okay so bear with me, Iā€™m slowly getting back into writing on here.. in the meantime, Iā€™ve really gotten into perfumery, and so, here are a few thoughts/headcanons of mine...
Tumblr media
Gale: Candle wax, olive oil, sea salt, black tea, parchment paper and a very faint citrusy scent - perhaps lemon or grapefruit.
The wizardā€™s scent is reminiscent of an old stone house, the very kind which provides you with cool shelter on a hot dayā€¦ and somewhere in that house, someone has found an old recipe and is now searching through the cupboards for ingredientsā€¦
Astarion - Red wine, leather,Ā  french lavender, oud, bergamot, smoke.
This scent seems so awfully overpowering at first. Itā€™s the kind of smell that makes you curl your nose up - however, the longer it lingers in the air allows you to notice the subtleties of the scent.. the sharpness of the wine, the sweetness and smokiness of the oud. Itā€™s the kind of scent that is intoxicating - and certainly not for everyoneā€¦
Shadowheart - Sugared rose, cherry, lilac, french lavender, frankincense, vanilla, myrrh.
Floral, sugary and almost religious in natureā€¦ The half-elfā€™s scent is reminiscent of an ancient stone church, dark, cool and ancient in natureā€¦ There is, however, a floral element too - as if a bouquet has been left to lay wilting by an altar.
Halsin - Pine, oak, woodsmoke, birch sap, fig leaf, wet fur, nag champa.
The druidā€™s scent is subtle; itā€™s almost exactly how the forest smells after a heavy storm.. strong, wild and raw and yet, there is still a heady warmth to the scent. Waves of nag champa and fig leaf lay layered on his skin - and of course, due to the nature of such smells, last for days on his clothes too.
Laeā€™zel -Juniper berries, fresh mint, cypress, sweet grass, dew, white cedar.
This scent is clean, fresh and delicateā€¦ It awakens your senses just as a bright crisp sunrise would after a refreshing night camping in a meadow.Ā  At first, it may seem like a fairly gender-neutral fragrance, however, the softer notes of the sweet grass and juniper berries can be noticed whenever the wind changes direction.
Wyll - Cardamom, honey, tobacco, bourbon vanilla, grey amber, almond, musk.
This scent is rich, perhaps even a tad on the spicier side of the scent spectrum. To some, it may seem like a spiced dessert paired with a strong drink - to others, itā€™s reminiscent of being nestled up by a fire, reading a book whilst a thunderstorm cracks overhead. It is sweet as it is masculine, royal as it is earthy.Ā 
Karlach - Blackberry, ginger, pepper, dragonā€™s blood, sandalwood, orange.
Just like the tielfing herself, this scent is unapologetic - firey and playful. The scent toys your senses, the pepper and ginger bubbles like sparkling wine - whilst the sweeter notes of fresh tart fruits provide a girlish, youthful touchā€¦ the scent reminds you of pricking your fingers on thorns whilst you collected berries as a child. However, the deeper notes of dragonā€™s blood and sandalwood round the scent out - those warmer scents are welcomingā€¦ homely even.Ā

How Astarion / Gale / Halsin would help you unwind after a stressful day šŸŒæ
Tumblr media
Astarion
- Astarionā€™s technique to help you unwind would definitely be distraction.
- After a stressful day, Astarion would spend a little bit of time to fluff up pillows or to gather a blanket or two, before inviting you to sit with him.
- Heā€™d probably pour a glass of wine for you each. Heā€™d chat utter rubbish to you, or alternatively, Astarion may retell some great story of grandeur to you (which is half true and half greatly exaggerated)
- A few games of cards may be played, or perhaps chess.
- Astarion would suggest that you both plan an escape togetherā€¦ whether it be a break somewhere peaceful, or far away, he always thought that even the very concept of disappearing somewhere new was quite soothing
- Failing all else, Astarion would offer to brush your hair. Heā€™d carefully take the time to braid your locks (if you have longer hair) - making sure to run the comb gently across your scalp before tying your hair in a ribbon. Alternatively, if you have shorter hair, heā€™d source a bottle of rich oil , being carefully to run it across your scalp and massage your head gently under his fingers.
Gale
- Gale would know something was wrong as soon as he laid eyes on you.
- Heā€™d instruct you to go splash your face with water and to change into something comfortable. As you did so, heā€™d prepare a warm and comforting meal for you - careful to make it just to your liking.
- As you ate, Gale would ask you about your day - listening thoughtfully and providing any suggestions or input where he saw necessary. If youā€™d prefer not to talk about it, Gale would completely understand, and instead, heā€™d simply sit with you. Heā€™d probably busy himself with a task, humming softly or singing under his breath as he did so.
- Gale would have a ā€˜special chatā€™ with Tara and would ask her to sit on your lap. After a little argument with said cat, heā€™d bring her to you and plop her in your lap. Once she was comfy and she had settled, youā€™d find her purring to be rather soothing.
- If all else failed, Gale would simply hold you. With your head pressed up against his chest and his chin on top of your head - heā€™d run his fingers through your hair and hum a soft sea shanty he learnt as a boy living in Waterdeep.
Halsin
- Halsin would offer that you join him on a walk. Even if he hadnā€™t prepared a route before hand, heā€™d naturally pick whichever walk had the prettiest views and scenery.
- Heā€™d walk beside you, talking to you by pointing out plants or telling you stories from folklore. If you ever grew tired at any point, Halsin would effortlessly pick you up and carry you the rest of the way.
- Once you both reached a scenic view point, Halsin would invite you to meditate with him. Heā€™d show you a few of his preferred breathing techniques until you found yourself naturally letting go of any tension you had gathered over the day.
- Whilst you sat with your eyes closed, Halsin would quietly gather a few plants, such as lavender, from the nearby area. Heā€™d rub the leaves and flowers between his hands, releasing a sweet herbal oil. The druid would then sit beside you, slowly taking your hand in his to massage the oils into your palm.
- Halsin would naturally be an expert in pressure points, and so, through a hand/arm/shoulder massage, heā€™d be easily able to help melt any tension out from your body

Long Day (Halsin x Reader)
Smut 18+ šŸ—”ļøšŸŒæ
- Halsin gives you some love after a long day (oral sex, maybe part two on its way?)
Tumblr media
The bright orange spark of a flame illuminated your bedroom. Your body ached after a long day, which rather felt like an eternity, of greeting and meeting nobles. You were always grateful and humbled to meet those who travelled across the land to meet you - after all, you were the ā€˜oh-so-famous hero of Baldurā€™s Gateā€™. Granted, you loved meeting townsmen and families who now called Baldurā€™s Gate their home, but oh godā€¦ noblesā€¦ How you hated them. You hated their snooty fake smiles and prying eyes as they scrutinised every move you made.
Youā€™d much rather have a genuine conversation, but nobles were incredibly fake. As such, you always had to put on some fanciful clothes and do up your hair to meet with these nobles. And yes, you could admit you looked rather smart, but these constructive clothes made your body ache in such a way armour never would.
Letting out a deep sigh, you caught sight of yourself in your bedroom mirror. The black makeup beneath your eyes had smudged, making you look a little bit like an owlbear. Heavy footsteps entered through your bedroom behind you. The sweet scent of pine and musk enveloped your senses, already allowing your muscles to relax slightly.
Halsin..
You spun on your heels and leaned your body against the dresser as you watched your lover walk towards the basin in your room. His thick forearms were coated in thick layers of ash and mud, which he wiped away with a damp cloth. Dropping the washcloth into a pail on the floor, he then splashed water on his face. Once satisfied, the large druid untied his hair from its loose bun, causing his hair to fall in gentle waves on his shoulders. The muscles in his shoulders wavered as he moved, and you had to force your gaze away.
ā€œIs everything okay, my heart?ā€
Halsin made his way up behind you, wrapping his arms gently around your body. Nodding slowly, you forced a smile onto your face, but of course, Halsin saw right through it. He pressed a kiss against your shoulder. Slowly, his hands trailed down the sides of your corset. You looked ravishing.. the way the corset showed off your figure, hugging onto every curve and extenuating your beauty. Halsin felt blood rushing across his body, but he inhaled deeply to keep himself in check. The smell of skin filled his senses - which didnā€™t exactly deter his lust.
You watched Halsinā€™s reflection in the mirror as he dropped his head to your shoulder - slowly planting kisses up your trapezius muscle. He was incredibleā€¦ truly. You already felt yourself loosen under his touch. His large hands dropped from your waist and slid down your thighs. Between Halsinā€™s warm touch and your bare skin stood nothing but a thin silk underskirt. The pressure of the Druidā€™s touch increased as his grip tightened on your thighs.
A soft whimper escaped from your lips and you slowly spun to face your partner. Halsin gazed down at you, his green eyes glinting hungrily. Lifting your chin and rolling onto your tip toes, you edged your face closer to his. You felt his hot breath on your lips, and you could hear from his breathing that he was trying to keep it together. ā€œHalsinā€¦ā€ you murmured.
ā€œMm?ā€.
Leaning forward, as far as you could reach, you gently placed a hand on his shoulder and pull him down slightly so your lips met his ear. ā€œI need youā€.
Without another beat passing, Halsin took you by the hips and lifted you onto your dresser - causing various bottles and other trinkets to clatter to the floor. You gasped as you felt the cold contact of your back against the mirror behind you. Halsin stared at you intensely as he ran his hands slowly down your legs. Once he reached your knees, he gently parted your legs and gazed at your already wetting cunt. A soft hum sounded from his chest. Fuck, you were gorgeous.
As he lowered his head between your legs, you ran your hands through his thick brown hair. He looked so beautiful amongst the bunched silk from your dress and between your - before you could conjure another thought, Halsin flickered his tongue against your clit. You moaned softly and grabbed a fistful of his hair. Practically purring, Halsin shuddered in delight. His wide tongue began to flick against your clit slowly - which caused you to arch your back. Pressing your palms against the dresser beneath you, you brought your knees up against your chest.
With one hand around your right ankle, Halsin guided it to rest upon his broad shoulder. His other hand, squeezed your left thigh, which made you gasp. The elfā€™s tongue quickened in pace, and your bucking hips did nothing but encourage his hunger. Gasping for air, you pressed his head down harder between your legs - practically smothering him between your soft thighs. Halsinā€™s cocked twitched beneath his trousers, growing almost painfully erect.
The pressure began to build in your lower stomach and you squeezed your thighs tighter around Halsinā€™s head. As they bucked almost uncontrollably, Halsin reached up to grab your hips to hold you in place. You began to see stars as the pressure built and built, only growing stronger with each movement of Halsinā€™s tongue untilā€¦ You covered your mouth with your hands as you let out a weepy moan. Panting heavily, you came and released your grip on Halsinā€™s head.
Between frantic breaths, you stared at your partner hazily - you could almost feel the condensation on the mirror behind you. Halsin slowly stood up as a soft smile danced on his wet lips. The male-elfā€™s face was flushed berry-pink and his hair now fell in messy clumps around his shoulders. His tongue flickered arose his lips as he tasted what remained of you on his lips.
Slowly, he reached out to you and held your face between his hands. His warm lips pressed against your forehead as he closed his eyes. You could smell the sweat and arousal pulsating from his bodyā€¦ he smelt intoxicating.
ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”
Part two on its way? Maybe

I saw you doing BG3 character pairings! So!
Im generally alt dressings (currently outfit for ref is red cargo pants, black leather crop top, red net crop over that, and knee high platform boots with my black and red micro braids pulled to the side)
I like the night and general darkness, I actively avoid being outside during the day. I like mind games and such. I don't like big animals, or heat
I'm also ftm lol
Mate, you sound cool! Thank you for sending me a submission šŸŒæ So I think I'm going to pair you with Mizora
Tumblr media
Mizora
After years of watching over faerun, not much interested Mizora. However, whilst trying to control Wyll, she found herself being awfully distracted by you (not that she'd ever admit it). She would be incredibly taken back by your sense of style, and how striking you are compared to all the dull nobles around.
She'd come visit you during the night, whilst you were awake and your companions asleep. You two would sit for hours together, talking about your lives and your history... Mizora would confess that she never took such of an interest in any mortal men, that is until she first saw you... You fascinated her. And she would smash the earth to pieces for you.
Although she always kept a cool composure and would never admit it, Mizora found herself being rather flustered in your presence. As your relationship progressed, you'd often lay together on a cliff top. Mizora would take great care to braid your hair and listen to you talk. If you ever mentioned that anyone irritated or upset you, she'd always offer to send them to the very hells themselves. She'd bring you gifts, such as infernal armour, fantastically beautiful studded boots, or beautiful weaponry just to see you smile.

Ooh could I please get a Bg3 Pairing? šŸ‘€
I'm a 21 year old autistic librarian and linguist with ADHD. My hobbies include gardening, taking care of my houseplants, learning languages, reading, and obsessively studying and infodumping about my interests. I have a very bubbly, friendly personality but I'm also really smart, mature and I give good advice. I love taking care of people and consider it to be my life's purpose, I just like being nice. As for my appearance, I'm super short, 4' 10" (147 cm) with long wavy auburn hair, glasses, pale skin with lots of moles and freckles, and a pretty tomboyish style of dress. I also really enjoy working out so I'm getting pretty muscular despite being the size of an Oompa Loompa lol. I have a really good sense of humor and can make quips very fast and easily. I enjoy learning new things and interacting with interesting people!
Thanks so much, have a fantastic day/night!
I'm thinking either Gale or Karlach! I can't decide which so I'm going to do a little bit for them both! Thank you so much for sending me a submission btw šŸŒæ
Tumblr media
Gale
You'd accidentally bump into Gale whilst at work - he'd be looking for an old text/scroll when he'd first notice you. I reckon he'd try be quite smooth, but end up making a terrible pun or 'dad-joke' and then internally curse himself about it later.
You'd often find yourselves alone together at the library (usually late into the night), where you'd be sorting through books and he'd be studying. You'd notice the wizard and try to catch his eye - and he'd always look up from the pages and give you a little wave.
Dates would often entail you both studying together, or discussing your special interests. You could always make Gale laugh with your quick wit - sometimes he'd try and joke back, but of course he'd fail miserably (not that you'd mind though).
He'd love to teach you things about the weave, and likewise, he always found your interests, especially plants. so endearing. As a gift, Gale would go away for a few days to hike across the mountains to bring you a rare flower or shrub.
Karlach
Karlach would find you so cute from the get go. She'd struggle to contain her excitement around you, often reaching to pick you up or squeeze your arm, but she always bit her tongue and kept herself in check. This would be of course until you found yourself laying around the campfire one night, and she accidentally blurt out how the stars above your heads reminded her of your freckles.
She'd completely understand your ADHD, and in fact, would always encourage you to be you - no masking allowed when Karlach's around! She'd love to go on runs, or work out with you. And despite you being very strong yourself, she'd always want to pick you up and pepper you with kisses.
Whilst spending time out on walks together, Karlach would beg you to teach her about something... She loved listen to you talk about your interests - though sometimes she wouldn't really listen, she just loved seeing you light up with excitement as you talked about your passions.

One thing I love about Gale is that he is a middle-aged human. Actually truly human. In a world full of centuries-old elves and tieflings from hell and the children of literal gods, Gale is human. With greying hair and bad knees. I really appreciate that he is *not* a perfectly coiffed twenty-something with the bland appeal of a CW character. He's lived a life and survived his traumas and it shows. Unlike others in the party who for various heritage/ backstory/ magical reasons look forever 21, Gale looks his age. There's a maturity there which implies he's made his mistakes and had the chance to learn from them. I like that. I love that incongruity of a middle-aged level 1 wizard channeling the Weave with the finesse of a level 20 caster. I love the confidence with which Gale asserts that he is a good teacher- he *knows* this from lived experience, not just cocky confidence. I love the grey in his hair and the lines on his face and the creaks of his knees. He is human. And has lived long enough to be getting old. And it shows.
Hello hello!
Yes! This.
In a society that demonises getting old and looking even remotely over 25, I find Larianā€™s decision to make Gale look the way he does highly commendable.
As someone who is of a similar age to Gale and has made the conscious decision not to succumb to the pressure of getting Botox, fillers or cosmetic surgery in favour of aging gracefully (or, as Halsin would say, as nature intended), I find his wrinkles, his textured skin, the little streaks of grey in his hair, to be a breath of very fresh air (not to mention, extremely sexy).
I love that Larian have created a game whose message is to actively show that people can heal, find love, reinvent themselves, change careers, change their mind, and make life-long friends in later life. Because life certainly does not end the moment we get our first grey hair, or the moment we walk away from a long-term relationship, or the moment we decide that maybe we want something different than what we have become accustomed to. Because we can, and we have every right to want whatā€™s best for ourselves.
And I love that Gale, in his humanity ā€” in his being so much like one of us ā€” embodies all of these different aspects: not only does he recover from the failing of a major relationship, he also has the opportunity to find love again, change career, make new friends, heal from his trauma, rebuild his magical prowess, and generally find new purpose and happiness in life.
If this isnā€™t the best advertisement for second chances, I donā€™t know what is.

Together - (Halsin x Reader x Astarion) (18+)
šŸŒæ Please note that this is smut and intended for 18+!
Started writing this as Halsin smut, but somehow Astarion made his way here too.
Tumblr media
Halsin held both your hands in his as he guided you down the track.Ā It was dusk, the sun had long begun to set andĀ you were struggling to see the path from the trees. ā€œHal, where are we going?ā€ You whispered as you ducked beneath another branch. ā€œJust wait loveā€ he murmured softly with a chuckle, ā€œI promise it wonā€™t be far nowā€. Soon enough, the tall elf led you out into a break in the forest. The clearing here was mossy and fresh, lavender grew in areas where the tall dry grass did not. A small stream parted through the clearing, its soft noise filled your ears.Ā 
ā€œWowā€ you whispered. ā€œHmā€ Halsin smiled with a gentle nod, ā€œitā€™s beautiful isnā€™t it?ā€. You had to admit, in the dying light of such a warm summer day as this - it was almost magical. Halsin watched you fondly as you tucked a loose strand of her behind your ear. His green eyes skimmed over your parted lips and he smiled. ā€œI have something else for youā€. ā€œHm?ā€. The Druid smiled softly and gently guided you to sit on the mossy forest floor. His large warm hands ran over your shoulders for a brief moment, before running a finger up your neck to cup your jaw. Halsin gazed longingly into your eyes - god you were incredible. As you sat there in the orange light, he noticed every delicacy of your body - from your collarbones to the freckles on your shouldersā€¦ he wanted all of you.Ā 
After a moment of silence, Halsin asked ā€œDo you trust me?ā€. You furrowed your brows, perhaps not quite understanding the question, ā€œOf courseā€™. Halsin nodded and slowly raised to his feet. He pressed his lips to your forehead with a gentle hum before he began walking backwards into the trees. ā€œClose your eyesā€. You laughed as scrunched your nose up, ā€œWhat?ā€. You had obviously seen Halsinā€™s ursine form many times before, so you werenā€™t quite sure what he was getting at. The Druidā€™s green eyes seemed to shine amongst the dark trees. ā€œMy love, I promise itā€™ll be worth it. Keep them shut until I tell you to do otherwiseā€.
You laughed and squeezed your eyes shut. Upon closing your eyes, you noticed your ears twitch as they readjusted to the world around you. You heard the soft sound of the gentle breeze rushing through the leavesā€¦ you could hear the gushing of the streamā€¦ in fact, if you tuned in enough, you could almost hear the distant crackle of the campfire a few hundred meters away. Then footsteps. You heard footsteps walking across the moss and dry grass as they made their way towards you. ā€œIā€™m keeping them shutā€ you giggled as you felt the warmth of Halsinā€™s body as he sat down behind you. You felt the heat radiate off his bare skin and you shuddered. His hands slowly made their way across your body. His fingertips gently skimmed over your jaw and next as Halsin made his way down to your chest.Ā 
A soft kiss was planted into the nape of your neck and you shuddered. Halsin ran a thumb over your nipple, which was dangerously hard beneath your thin nightdress. ā€œMay I?ā€ He growled softly. You nodded and lifted your arms above your head as Halsin made quick work of effortlessly removing your dress. You suddenly felt very exposed, what with being fully naked out in the elements - but Halsin was warm. He groaned softly and gently brought a fist full of your hair to his nose. He inhaled your scent and buckled his hips against you. You bit your lip and leant against him. You followed the rhythm of his rolling hips and went to turn to face him - but Halsin took hold of your hips and kept you firmly in place.Ā  He stifled a soft moan and whispered into your hair, ā€œYou may open your eyes now, little oneā€.Ā 
Your eyes took a few seconds to readjust to the darkness - but what you saw made your heart leap. There, emerging from the shadows of the forest, stood Astarion. His pale chest looked almost porcelain in the setting light. His eyes flickered a dangerous red as they honed in on your naked body. From behind you, Halsin slowly reached around and squeezed ones of your thighs as he continued bucking his hips. ā€œSurpriseā€ Astarion smirked as he paced slowly, but deliberately towards you. His eyes dropped down to your wet cunt. ā€œHm.. how deliciousā€ he muttered.Ā 
You bit your lip and shuddered, pressing your knees together to hide your embarrassment. ā€œYou neednā€™t hide your beauty, my loveā€ Halsin murmured into your hair as he wrapped both his strong, thick arms around you. Delight flashed in Astarionā€™s eyes. He bit his own lip softly as he gazed down at you both from where you sat on the forest floor. The vampire dropped to his knees and took hold of your ankle in a cold grasp. He pressed his lips against the inner of your calf. His tongue flickered on your skin as his eyes remained locked on you. Slowly, Astarion dropped onto all fours and lowered his body all but a few inches off the ground. His lips trailed slowly up your legs, nibbling and biting the tender parts of your flesh as he made his way to the middle of your legs.Ā 
Astarion gasped at the heat radiating from your quivering pussy. The scent made him heady with glee. ā€œMy, how beautifulā€ he purred, tracing a finger up and down your dripping slit. Halsin growled and grazed your shoulder with his teeth. The sight of Astarion poised between your soft thighs drove him insane. The feeling of your little body quivering and shaking beneath his grasp made his head fog with lust. He also loved the way Astarionā€™s lean body was poised like a mountain lion, ready to strike on both of your desires at any moment.Ā 
You whimpered as Halsin took hold of both your thighs and slowly spread them for Astarion. His hot breath on your pussy made your toes curl. ā€œFf.. uckā€ you muttered as you clung onto Halsinā€™s arms. Astarion chuckled as his eyelids dropped slightly, ā€œOh, arenā€™t you hungry?ā€. You shuddered and nodded. You buckled your hips impatiently. ā€œP..leaseā€ you managed to murmur. Without any words uttered, men caught each otherā€™s gaze. Halsin gave a soft nod and to Astarionā€™s delight, he pressed his mouth against your clit and shuddered.Ā 
His tongue lapped against your clit hungrily and you mewled. Your back arched against Halsin as you gasped from the sudden impact. Astarion dug his fingers into your thighs and held them firmly against the ground. The taste of your cum was intoxicating, he felt as if he were growing drunk of the taste. Halsinā€™s shuddered as he grounded his hard cock against your back. He inhaled the sweet smell on the nape of your neck and hissed. You groaned from the pressure building in between your legs - fuck, Astarionā€™s touch was driving you to the edge. His pointed tongue flickered across your clit, picking up speed until Halsin had to hold your hips from bucking so much.
On the verge of release, you cried out when suddenly Astarion sat up. You panted and pressed your thighs together, desperate for the pressure down there. Astarion wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and smirked at Halsin - beat that.Ā 
A challenge.Ā 
Halsin snarled softly. He was not usually a competitive man - but in this moment he felt an overwhelming animalistic drive building in the bottom of his stomach.Ā  Halsin pulled you away from the smirking vampire. He lifted you up so that you perched on one of his thighs. He felt how wet you were and his heart skipped a beat. Leaning back onto his elbows, Halsinā€™s softly tapped his chest. His lips curled up into a smile and his eyes were glazed with an animalistic lust. You knew what that signal meant. Quickly, you climbed over Halsinā€™s broad chest to sit with either knee on either side of Halsinā€™s face. Holding your up by the back of your thighs, Halsin slowly lowered your clit onto his mouth.Ā 
You cried out and tilted your head up to face the sky. Halsin pressed his large tongue into your tight clit, which caused you to buck your hips rhythmically. By the gods, he adored the taste of your sweet cum - and you were ever so tantalisingly wet.Ā  Astarionā€™s cock twitched as he watched this display unravel before him. He purred and slowly stood up. The sight of Halsinā€™s behemoth hands digging into your soft ass was certainly a sight for sore eyes. Circling the pair of you, he watched as your tits bounced with each buck of your hips - and how Halsinā€™s muscular body rocked like a ship at sea under your lithe form. The vampire smirked as he stopped before you. Stepping closer, he leant to take your face in his hands. He gently brushed the hair out of your eyes to get a better look at youā€¦ and by gods, you were beautifulā€¦ especially whilst panting and mewling as Halsin brought you closer and closer to orgasm.
Astarion ran his thumb across your bottom lip and tilted his head. Slowly, he parted your lips and pressed the pad of his thumb against your tongue. Instinctively, you swirled your tongue over his thumb and Astarion caught his breath. ā€œFuckā€.Ā 
You gasped as you shook violently with pleasure - the building sensation in the pit of your stomach was almost unbearable now. You screamed softly and Astarion ran his hands down your heck. He tightened his hands around your neck softly, which caused you to gasp. He could feel the rush of your blood beneath your skin and he then knew he had to step back. Astarion flung himself down to the ground and watched as your body shook in pleasure from where you sat on Halsinā€™s face. The vampireā€™s chest rose up and down as he attempted to compose himself.Ā 
The pressure was building in your stomach, whereas your body began to twitch uncontrollably. ā€œH..Halsinā€™ you whimpered, soft tears forming in the corner of your eyes as you stared at your lover. Halsin stared up at you. Without warning, he carefully flipped you on your back - but he was careful to catch you, so you did not hit the ground too hard. Halsin leant over you and began kissing your neck. ā€œNot yet little oneā€, he whispered as he edged his cock towards you, pressing at your entrance. ā€œBreatheā€™ he murmured as he took in your blush-stained face. Slowly, he entered you - which caused you to cry out, but Hasin waited for your body to adjust to his great size. Once he could tell you were comfortable, he gently rocked his hips against you and pushed his cock further inside you. The pleasure was immense, your back arched as you gasped. Your fingers took up fistfuls of the mossy floor around you. Halsinā€™s breathing grew heavy as his thrusts grew harder, heavier, and more ravenous with each movement.Ā 
You locked your legs around Halsinā€™s waist as he pushed you further and further into the mossy bed. The heat was unavoidable now, the quivering feeling in your belly burnt. Quivering like a leaf, you legs shook violently as you cried out. Picking up the pace, Halsinā€™s hips slammed against yours until finally - release. Halsin arched his body over you and panted heavily - his hair dropped down around his face as he shut his eyes and focused himself. You breathed slowly and stared up at the sky, which somehow managed to turn to an inky black whilst your mind was elsewhere. Halsin lowered himself beside you and ran his fingers through his hair. He stretched an arm out to you, which you took as an invitation to bury your face in his chest. Satisfied and exhausted, you closed your eyes and listened to your heartbeats amongst the sounds of the forest.Ā 
Picking himself up, Astarion made his was over to you both. The vampire knelt by your side and swept the hair out of your face. He ran his fingers through it and neatly tucked it on your back. With a soft hum, he lay down to wrap his body against yours. A cold hand snaked around your waist and you sighed happily.Ā

Chapter 2
Astarion stared out across the harbour. The sea was slightly dappled in the moonlight, but it didnā€™t shimmer that much for it was a still evening. He almost wished it had been stormy night - for he would have quite enjoyed watching the waves swell as the skies thundered above. At least then it would have matched his thoughts - as dramatic as that must have seemed. The high-elf rested his chin in his hand and exhaled a lengthy sigh. He hadnā€™t felt quite this wayā€¦ well, as far as he could remember, not for at least two hundred years. He hadnā€™t felt worryā€™s hands clawing at his very being in quite this way for a long time. When Tav had fallen out of the sky earlierā€¦ well, she had refused to look at him for some odd reason. And that was even considering the fact that he had carried her back the way to camp - despite Karlachā€™s pleas to ā€˜have a turn to helpā€™ as she so put it. No, instead her eyes had been shut or fixated on the ground below. Whatā€™s more, she wouldnā€™t speakā€¦ not at all. It was as if she were lifeless in his armsā€¦ and it reminded him of the victims he had brought back for Cazador. The very comparison made his stomach churn. He couldnā€™t even bear to contemplate the thought of ever hurting her - no, heā€™d rather throw himself onto an open fire. He felt sick.
ā€œIsā€¦ Astarion alright?ā€ Shadowheart asked softly from where she sat beside the campfire. She had been watching Astarion for a little while and she noticed that her rogue comrade hadnā€™t moved from the shore for a few hours now. Gale sighed and glanced up from his book. He had been enjoying refamiliarising himself with various rare cantrips and potions - that was before he had been interrupted, of course. Regardless, he too observed Astarionā€™s figure in the distance for a few moments.
Both the wizard and cleric watched on in horror as Astarion suddenly haunched over and started to vomit. After composing himself, Astarion glared towards the campfire, causing both Gale and Shadowheart to quickly look away. ā€œI didnā€™t know vampires could be sickā€ Shadowheart muttered after a few minutes of silence. ā€œOh yes,ā€ Gale replied softly, ā€œUnlike what folk law may suggest, vampires arenā€™t too dissimilar to you and Iā€¦ Although, Iā€™ve never sunk my teeth into a woman in quite such a literal wayā€. Shadowheartā€™s nose curled up in disgust, ā€œGale. That isnā€™t funnyā€. Gale chuckled and closed his book, before carefully placing it on the ground beside him. ā€œIā€™m kidding! Well, kind of, but letā€™s not forget that Astarion isnā€™t quite a vampireā€¦ heā€™s sort of a half-mortal, being a vampire spawn after allā€. Shadowheart cautiously picked at the bread in her lap, ā€œI know that, but stillā€¦ heā€™s not being his usual narcissistic selfā€. Gale raised a wily brow, ā€œā€¦Is that such a bad thing?ā€. ā€œNoā€¦ I suppose not. I was just wondering if his odd behaviour had anything to do with Tav falling from the sky earlierā€.
The wizardā€™s eyes slowly flickered across at Halsinā€™s tent on the other side of camp. The druid had been talking to Tav for a little while now - apparently he was testing out her reflexes and whatnot after the fight earlier. ā€œI imagine heā€™s just worried about herā€. Shadowheart furrowed her brow, ā€œHeā€™s not the only one who is you know.ā€. Gale smiled softly. He was almost taken aback by Shadowheartā€™s open affection for their friend. ā€œShadowheartā€ he spoke gently ā€œYou know thatā€™s not what I meantā€¦ We all care about Tav, she means a great lot to us all. But you know how she and Astarion are togetherā€¦ā€. Shadowheart sighed and tossed her bread onto the open fire. ā€œI knowā€.
You blearily watched Halsin as he ground up a few herbs in a pestle and mortar. Candlelight flickered softly within Halsinā€™s tent and whilst it would have normally been comforting, you couldnā€™t help but see Astarionā€™s face in every shadow. You had spent the entire evening retelling your vision to Halsin and now your eyes throbbed in pain from all the crying you had done. ā€œIā€™m sorry Halsinā€ you whimpered as you wrapped his blanket around your shoulders. The aroma of lavender calmed your senses as Halsin continued to grind the herbs in front of you. You watched as the mixture slowly turned from a gritty paste into a silvery liquid. Halsin reached for a small cup, which he had obviously carved out of pine at some point. He slowly poured the liquid into the cup. Once it was full, he raised his palm above the mixture and ran his index finger clockwise along the ring. ā€œSomnus angĆ©lusā€. Halsin had murmured so faintly that it was only just about audible to your ears. Orange droplets fell from his palm as he repeated the charm. These droplets slowly trickled into the cup, which shone brightly with magic. ā€œHereā€ he leaned forward to pass you the cup, ā€œItā€™s not much, but it should keep the dreams at bay for tonightā€. You took the cup and cautiously watched as the orange droplets glimmered from within the liquid. ā€œThank you Halsin, but I donā€™t think I can drink thisā€¦ What if Othim needs to talk to me?ā€.
Halsin stared at you. He took in each inch of your frameā€¦ your shoulders seemed to carry the weight of the world, and now your eyes were equally as heavy with worry. Despite previously telling him about your encounters with Othim over the past few months, Halsin had his doubts about how much this dream visitor of yours was to be trusted. ā€œFriend, please drinkā€¦ Heā€™s already proven that you donā€™t have to be asleep for him to reach youā€. You frowned and slowly nodded. Yes, that seemed to be the truth as you had learnt from today. You were so incredibly exhaustedā€¦ not only from the day of physical excursion but also from how you had tortured yourself withā€¦ well, the image of Astartion killing all those peo - no, stop! You squeezed your eyes shut and quickly took a swig of the liquid. Thankfully, it tasted not unlike peppermint tea. With a sigh you placed the little wooden cup down, ā€œThank you Halsinā€¦ I.. thank youā€. Halsin nodded and smiled softly. He readjusted himself to sit beside you and gently wrapped an arm around you. You felt your eyes grow wearier. You could feel the warmth of the potion as it slowly made its way down your throatā€¦ and as it went, it was as if all the pain was lifted from your physical body. ā€œItā€™s okayā€ Halsin murmured as you leant your body against his. He rested his chin on top of your head as you dozed off to sleep. He vowed to himself that he would stay awake all night if you needed him to. The wood-elf had a tremendous amount of respect for you, not only as a leader but as a friend tooā€¦ and through all the months of knowing you, he had never seen you in so much pain.
As such, he wanted to help you in any way he could.
