Summary
Ven's a curious man by nature, and this invites hubris on a semi-regular basis. This hubris is apparently called "Grunch Sr".
Basically summoning goes wrong, this summoning attempt was not for the sake of creating his very own sous chef, despite what he may claim.

Summary
Following a uniquely awful time, Veneficus Puritas seeks solace. Estinien, dull and yet so very smart both, deigns to wrangle these feelings out of Ven, to which the latter responds predictably poorly.
Ven doesn't mean to fight with such intent, doesn't intend to lunge with such force; following this, he feels the need to explain himself, and yet something bubbles under the surface, a maelstrom of feeling threatening to overtake him.

Summary
Another trial ends, and Barok is left well alone to wallow in his feelings, but Ryunosuke Naruhodo is never one to let sleeping dogs lie. Some people would accuse him of caring too much, to which he'd digress--he cares just the right amount.

Roman asked James on a date.
He asked him on a date, and by some utter gods-given miracle, he accepted.

Summary
Veneficus and Emet-Selch have a fairly amicable chat in the Pendants, Ven airs some fairly candid feelings about his quest, and Emet cannot stop himself from meddling in affairs.
(Rated for candid discussion of mental health, and bad language, since apparently my WoL swears like a sailor.)

Summary
"I have to admit, this possessiveness of yours is rather enticing.”
“I should hope thou dost not take this weakness as opportunity for mischief,” Urianger frowned.
“Tempting,” Thancred grinned and pecked him on the lips. “I’m thinking of a potential remedy to this jealous tendency of yours.”
“’Tis plain I need not ask thee to share thine thoughts.” Silvery, long lashes lowered over an alluring gaze as lips ghosted over his own.
“I suppose you’ll need to show everyone I’m yours, hm? Take out your apprehensions on me?”
Urianger’s eyes widened. He recognized this rare mood. The beguiling words sent bawdy imaginings running through his head. Did he dare consider the deeper implications of such an invitation? Though he had taken the reins from time to time, he still often deferred to Thancred’s experience, more than happy to be swept into his pace. Yet now, a newfound curiosity— hunger— sparked in him.

It’s worse.

Summary
“This is not a negotiation.” Deirta Thelyss’s voice cracked the air like a thunderclap, sharp enough that even her ever-bustling flock of attendants twitched. “You will agree to this marriage, or I will have you cast from Den Thelyss for dereliction of duty. Is that clear?”
Essek held himself stiffly, his shoulders rising in affront. A dangerous lapse of control, considering the woman standing before him, and one he would berate himself for later in the privacy of his tower, but he couldn’t help it. To be bartered off as—as a diplomatic representative of all things. It was absurd, insulting. Was the prestige his accomplishments brought to the den not enough? The Bright Queen herself had awarded him the title of Shadowhand for the advancements he’d made to the field of dunamancy, advancements that had secured countless victories in the war. Why should he have to upend his entire life to accommodate some human he’d never even met?

Summary
When it came right down to negotiating the terms of the contract for the Orphic Hammer, warlock Losson Wright had bigger plans. Until he heard rumor that a certain cambion wasn't exactly the best when it came to his performance in the bedroom.
Now he's made it his personal mission to ensure that whoever winds up holding the Crown of Karsus at the end of it all is, at the very least, a competent lover.
Too bad Losson's having second thoughts about who to hand it off to: Raphael or his Patron - Mephistopheles.

Summary
“I am not eager to throw myself upon another altar for naught but scraps in return.” Gale steels himself with a deep breath. He speaks his peace to the wilds and the cosmos rather than his lover's face. “And yet. Marble skin, silver tongue... eyes like Moonsea rubies. Oh, you cast a fine altar, Astarion.”
With two discerning appetites, a deal to keep each other fed is the one thing that ties Astarion and Gale together. But the proverbial collar slips all too easily around Gale's throat, the lead feels right in Astarion's unchained hands, and both men think they've bested the other in a game neither should be playing.
In any case. As the greats say in lanceboard: there is no shame in losing to a stronger foe.
