We're nearing Xmas - so here's your first piece of three for my this year's "under the mistletoe" thrive 🎄✌🏻😎

#Runaan and #Ethari from #TheDragonPrince. Yes, I also have a fancy for this beautiful assassin and his Smith-husband.

#fanart #mistletoe #elves
Ethari is kissing his beloved husband Runaan under a mistletoe, already eager to finally have that tradition again. Runaan had been imprisoned in a cursed coin for two years and Ethari had thought him dead, always seeing Runaan's ghost. Now his 'beloved phantom', his heart, finally has returned to him and Ethari knows, his husband only needs a little help and some hints to get cuddly.

Monday! New chapter online.
Curious about #Shae s birthday? It's a blasphemy! Shieldmeet! “Cinnaelos'Cor, the Day of Corellon's Peace" in the surface-elvish - the one who had betrayed Lady Lolth so miserably, the great deceiver.
#oc #dnd #drow #fanfic

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: He did not know of something like a birthday, was he not used to such, and none had told him anyway, therefore he did not know, his true birthdate lay very close, at the end of the seventh. If they had ever done so, his matron would have had to admit, her forcing of his birth had fallen upon a most unholy day for any Lolthian, the Shieldmeet. A day occurring only every four years but that wasn’t the blasphemy – Shieldmeet was dedicated to Corellon, “Cinnaelos'Cor, the Day of Corellon's Peace" in the surface-elvish and he, Corellon, after all, was the one who had betrayed Lady Lolth so miserably, the great deceiver.

Shae tilts his head, granting Ryld a closer look at his scarred ears. "House Nag'Thûr might have marked me as their good for a lifetime, yet I never was of their house. I intend on returning and ... Leaving no witnesses of their claims. They taught me well in their laws."

Shae would look up (though he himself is larger than average, 166 cm of frenzy) and say: "never let my former house notice you. Stay far away from Many Eyes Plaza, at best never come to Menzoberranzan again. They will lock you away in the Stockhandling. Wait, until I'm done with them..."

#Shae is thinking as Magtherian through & through: it has to be simple, fitting, practical & absolute no hindrance in his movements (he's hyper flexible). A shock it is for him at Figaro's, when #Astarion selects a "thong with benefits"... He strongly questions Astarion's sanity.

How to get away with murder in #Menzoberranzan? Easy - just follow the law of 'leaving no credible witnesses'

#Shae #drow #oc #dnd #fanfic

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: Laws in Menzoberranzan differ greatly from those of the surface, yet if you fullow them, you even get away with murder.

#Shae is immune to most naturally haunted poisons - he suffers some side-effects, but he won't die. But he's not used boozing so he drank like an idiot and was full to the brim 😂 (but proud as fuck he killed Tisobalt by boozing.... Until Shae barfed out his soul soon after...)

How #Shae learned swimming - #drow edition. Lake Donigarten not only provides a rothé herd but many more sensations for a boy just exploring #Menzoberranzan

#oc #fanfic #dnd

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: He frowned a little, when he thought about the lake again, for had made a rather unwilling acquaintance with it last month and it nearly had been a decision about life and death, had he never swum before. Near the lake now, close to Braeryn district, where the sick, the outlaw and the non-human inhabitants lived, guarded of course, he stopped for a moment, when could see the dark, silent lake from the little steep that would lead him further to the gates of House Hunzrin.

Summary: “If that is the best you can do, you better get yourself to the goblin-pack,” Estramon scolded him, after he had beaten the boy again onto the sands, “… you are rather servant than fighter.” The weapon’s master had a wide smirk on his face, striding over the sands, the early morning group that trained this day with him had made space, so the larger drow and their superior by rank had all the room to train with the little brat named Shae’Zar. Who was again eating dirt, as every day.

WIP "Linger in the dark"
Where there is darkness, there most likely also is a drow... Especially with a damsel like #Astarion around. #Shae teaches them all, why dark elves are feared - his own kin does since he's decided to face them, whenever they dare peeking out of Menzoberranzan

Monday! Another chapter online! #Shae for the first time meets a surface-elf, mortal enemy to the drow, and he immediately learned, why they are.
#fanfic #dnd #drow #menzoberranzan

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: “See, that’s why you need to know how to use a weapon so early. Any weapon,” Raghallee had turned to Shae’Zar, who was in the middle of the corridor out of reach for any other prisoner, breathing hard, still sorting out what just had happened, his lips smeared with blood, his eyes in a mix of horror and anger. “He is a surface-elf, darthiir, a light-liver, a surface-dweller, Shae’Zar. Mortal enemy to us drow.”

"Is it one of those nights, love?"

With staying among his friends and his love, there come days when #Shae struggles with his past in Menzoberranzan, now that he knows, what they have done to him. #Astarion of course is there for him, trying together to find a way of coping.
#oc #bg3 #drow
Astarion stands behind Shae, has his arms gently wrapped around the drow, one hand placed over Shae's heart, the other onto his belly. The vampire knows, it's 'one of those nights' where the dark elf struggles on disassociating with memories from his past in Menzoberranzan. Tears are trickling down the stone-coloured face and all they can do now, is being close each other, skin on skin, silent, just breathing, feeling the embrace.

#TavQOTD #Shae dead-staring #Astarion for quite a while, after teasing mockery, then growls to "One day, Fae, I'll be bold enough to return everything, shackle you up for three days neigh & have it all my way with you..." . The vampire's grin tells him, something's off. Had he said that aloud?

#Shae explores for the first time his direct surroundings, which means: House Nag'Thûr in #Menzoberranzan. The boy knows nothing about his home, the city, her inhabitants & the fate that looms around him
#drow #oc #dnd #fanfic

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: Would there be more drow, maybe someone as small as him, another ‘little shit’ as high priestess Maralyll used to address him? Would Shae’Zar once look similar to Estramon, when he ‘got older’, ‘grew up’, as Raghallee had named that process? Would his hair be that long? Would he even wear such weapons once? There were so many questions floating around in his head now and kept up with each other, with every new corridor, every step he walked down behind her, with every new sound and every new face he saw. Could he explore all of this now and go everywhere then with another just as small … as young as him? One who most likely would understand him better, who must have the same thoughts?

Happy #Halloween to all who celebrate it.

I think, these three would nail any trick or treat run - and our famous Starmage would also do it with style 😏

#thedragonprince #thedragonking #aaravos #leola #claudia #startouch
Claudia showing up with a witches hat and a pumpkin basket to on onto some truck and treat, greeting Aaravos and her taken-on little sister Claudia's eyes have grown wide, when she discovers, Aaravos and Leola have put their costumes on in the wrong way: the holes in them are not where they are supposed to be. Aaravos stands there, Leola up his arm to his left side. Both are covered in ghostly blankets but Aaravos had used the holes from the eyes for their horns to peek through. Leola has the advantage of only having one horn, therefore she can use the second hole for an eye to look out. Aaravos asks Claudia then, where their horns have to go, when the holes are not fit their horns. Leola whispers, she has told him, those holes were not for horns and suggests, he should use his magic now and become creative Aaravos snaps his fingers and creates more holes: now he can have both horns and both eyes peeking through the blanket and Leola's fit is now corrected to one horn and two eyes. She also now has a pumpkin basket and calls or for trick or treat

Monday! Another chapter online: Shae's early years at House Nâg'Thûr in #Menzoberranzan. Not a pleasure to grow up, especially when you're a male #drow.

#Shae #oc #drowlore #fanfic

archiveofourown.org/works/705336...
Summary: He just stood there, head lowered again, holding the book in his little hands, now that she gave it back to him but otherwise ignored the little boy while talking to Raghallee and Maralyll. He did not understand, he just had delivered himself into her hands by simply not being fragile and helpless anymore. He soon would be of use within her house – speaking and at best truly reading soon would help him find his place among the lowest in house Nag’Thûr. The time of restraint passed involuntarily with every year that little maggot grew up.

As a Magtherian, #Shae faced his first abuse at his Graduation, not knowing this also is a very vile tradition in #Menzoberranzan. Heavily drugged under ritual chants and incense his matron had of course a hand in the deals made with four graduating priestesses. Traditions are holy.
