Summary
The stars, it seemed, stretched on for eternity. There long before Arthur's grandfather was born and there long after Arthur has been laid in the ground. They were beautiful. Constant. A reminder of how small he was in the face of the world.
Yet, the truth was that Dutch preached constellations where Arthur could only see dots of light.
---
Arthur can't sleep, so he stays up to watch the night sky. Hosea joins him and the two have a conversation about where the gang started, where it will end, and the mythology behind the stars. -

Summary
When she was a little girl, her mother warned her about people like Javier. “Never open your home to creatures of the night, mija. They will steal you away and take your heart for themselves.”
Honestly? That's kind of what she was hoping for.

So this is how he dies - at 15, over a stupid bag that he's not even sure has anything valuable. Arthur's fully expecting the man to kill him now that he's finally caught him; he's not expecting the man to laugh and offer him a job.

AKA, originally a chapter from a story that'll likely never be posted, 15 year old Arthur Morgan meets Dutch and Hosea for the first time and is surprised when he doesn't end up dead. -

all that is lost by sadnaps

Summary
After the fall of Xianle, Xie Lian is taken by Yong’an.
Crushed by guilt over the destruction of his kingdom and the loss of his last believer, he endures generations of cruelty at the hands of Yong’an’s kings. Again and again, his children are taken from him, until the current king and queen offer him a particularly vicious mercy: one of his sons is allowed to live.
Lang Qianqiu grows up as the beloved prince of Yong’an, never knowing that the precious guoshi who raised him is also the one who gave birth to him.
Content warning: the first few chapters are painful and deal with captivity, abuse, pregnancy loss, and trauma. After that, the fic becomes much softer, with a heavy focus on recovery, love, family, smut, and happy babies.

Summary
There was a locket around Astarion’s neck. It was a simple thing, made of sturdy gold, not too gaudy. It was also a gift from his master. Astarion doesn’t know his name. Only that he’s Astarion’s master, and sire.
But he’s all alone in this wilderness now, far from his master and anything he can remember, and no one yet has hurt him. No one yet has told him what to do, either.
***
Anoxic brain oxygen deprivation often lead to difficulty with memory and the ability to recall facts, informations, names, and the like. And to a dead boy who spent a whole night in a coffin before rising again, there’s nothing like the taste of dirt on the tongue to spin this tale.
