Summary
Humans can go weeks without food. As long as they have access to water, some can even last months without biting into a hamburger or tasting the sweetness of strawberry jam on a biscuit hot out of the oven. There are drawbacks, of course, to skipping meals. Dizziness, fainting, weight loss too quick for the body to adapt to.
It’s Astarion's first table of the day. The dull, slow thump of his heartbeat rushes past his ears. His knees buckle with every step. He’s falling apart, he knows this, but with ten cents in the bank and another few days to wait until his paycheck comes in, all Astarion can do is keep putting one foot in front of the other and hope he doesn’t collapse. There’s no time to think about the metaphorical hand tightening around his stomach and throat.

They Say Some Species Mate for Life by number1trashenthusiast

Summary
After Charlie gets that fateful call from her mother, she embarks on a mission more harrowing than redeeming lost souls, fighting overlords, or challenging the forces of Heaven.
She’s going to help her dad get his groove back so he can win her mom's heart all over again!
Alternate Summary:
“You’re going to be fine,” Alastor drawls in Lucifer’s ear.
Lucifer is not FINE. He’s literally in over his head. The line to the club, which they’re currently standing in, is a MOB of unknown, sweaty, disgusting bodies. There are sinners EVERYWHERE. It’s like driving through a valley lined with sneering, toothy, hungry-looking trees with dozens of beady, glowing eyes.
He's going to DIE.
“This is going to be so amazing,” Charlie gushes. She makes eye contact with him over her shoulder and grins wide.
Lucifer tries to muster a return grin that looks enthusiastic and not as if he’s a single social interaction from developing stress fractures in his jaw.

The Last Will and Testament of Cazador Szarr by AbigailMoment

Summary
"First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."
As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.
"Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.
"Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.
"Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."
Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.
"A what?" he asked.

Summary
Astarion is near the docks when he feels Cazador's compulsion on him snap. He doesn't think twice. He just takes the next available ship out of Baldur's Gate. Its destination: The City of Splendors. Waterdeep.
*
Gale takes back the glass, now empty, and then seems to fidget a little. “There is something I wanted to get your opinion on- but it can wait until you’ve recovered. You don’t look well at all- no offense meant, of course.”
“None taken,” Astarion says sweetly. “Please go on. Tell me exactly what it is about my appearance that you find lacking.”
