Summary
It's 1980-something and the eclectic band Astarion and The Misfits has enjoyed moderate success so far. But as the band heads out on their first national tour, lead singer/songwriter Astarion is falling apart.
His traumatic past is catching up to him and it's getting harder to hide his worsening cocaine habit from his band. The only time he feels something approaching okay is when he's writing music, or around his keyboardist and best friend, Gale.
Will Astarion be able to pull himself together enough to deal with his painful past and out-of-control present before it's too late to save his future? Or is he doomed to repeat the cycle and end up as just another tragic rock and roll cautionary tale?
~~ Step right up! Come one, come all! We've got: excessive use of the f-word! Shameless (fair) use of songs recorded after the 1980s, from many genres, that have been shoehorned in to fit the story (or vice versa)! Belly-flopping face down into all kinds of trauma like it's Scrooge McDuck's money bin! More flashbacks than an acid trip! Angst and longing! Romance and smut! A side of Halstarion! A side of Karheart! A main course of Bloodweave! A Spotify playlist, updated for each chapter! ~~

Will Karlach's band of scrappy underdogs be able to take on the evil kids and get their skate park back? Or will evil always triumph because good is dumb?

Gale has a foolproof idea to find a date for the Blackstaff Ball. Nothing goes as planned.
"Oh, you know how it goes," Tara said with a shrug. "Boy summons tressym, tressym is boy's best friend for ten years, boy turns tressym into girl, then boy won't turn tressym back until she goes to a dance with him."

Summary
Kish has spent a lot of time in Baldur’s Gate — at least 500 hours, according to Steam. So when she finds herself staring out over Grey Harbour Docks for real, a slightly impatient vampire elf at her side, a breakdown or coma is her only rational explanation. Unfortunately, her new friends don’t care too much for rational explanations.
Faerûn wants its hero back and there’s not a lot she can do about it.

I Will Wed You With A Delicate Veil by SpellSparkler for ImNotYourStar

Summary
Astarion likes to pretend that he hates Gale. He needles him constantly when he drops off Astarion’s fabric orders, he acts indifferent when Gale asks what his plans are for the weekend (his plans are always bridal appointments or fittings, conveniently scheduled for the whole day), he mocks the cardigans and sweater vests Gale wears.
It’s easier than admitting he is hopelessly in love with his draper.-
A modern AU where Astarion makes wedding dresses, Gale is his lacemaker and draper, and shameless smut ensues.
