“It was just a dream solider.”

Karlach x GN!Reader

Hurt-comfort

A/N: I love Karlach so much she is such baby girl anyways! I writing this for my soul and other Karlach lovers such as me :) this also takes place after you fix her infernal engine problem.

You and Karlach had been dating for a while now and after dealing with her infernal engine and she wouldn’t turn you to charcoal the second she touched you she loved being able to hold you. Holding your hand, giving you a simple hug, kissing you, she loves all of them she loves having someone else’s arms around her instead of just her own holding herself. That also came with cuddles at night which was normal and happened almost every night, except for tonight now you were known to have nightmares even before the parasite was in your head, you never really told anyone because most the time it wasn’t to bad. Sometimes though it was night terrors and those would cause you to wake up in a cold sweat, shaking, and looking around with your eyes filled with fear and worry for your own safety. Sadly tonight was one of these nights, you were peacefully sleeping in Karlach’s muscular arms feeling her body heat, when your dream suddenly did a transition to a nightmare your worst fears all surrounding you, tormenting you.

You woke up shaking and in a cold sweat this caused you to find comfort in your sleeping girlfriend, you cuddled closer, holding on to her tighter this woke Karlach up enough to feel you shaking.

“Solider?” She looked down a bit to see your face and saw the panic in your eyes.

“Mhm.”

“What happened solider? You need me to kick some asses?”

This caused you to chuckle at your girlfriend’s antics “No it’s fine it was just a nightmare scared me.”

“Ah! don’t worry solider you’re safe with me!” She hugged you from the position your were in which was undoubtedly comforting.

This made you smile and at least feel safe enough knowing you had someone to protect you if something did happen. You closed you eyes to go back into your peaceful slumber, the warmth of her body also bringing a source of comfort to you. You feel asleep not long after sleeping peacefully the rest of the night with Karlach by your side as it would stay. You knew the next morning you would wake up to a hyper Karlach ready to start whatever adventure came that day on your journey to get rid of the tadpoles in your heads. That could wait till the morning though right now you were enjoying peaceful sleep with no nightmares.

if those are your tavs not only you're good at virtual photography but also at character design

Aww thank you so much!

The only design that’s not entirely original (from my intro post) is Chappell Roan’s knight look from the VMAs. On the other hand, Decker’s design was for me to visualize him in one of my short stories, so he hasn’t been fully played yet. But hey— cowboys in Faerun don’t sound so far-fetched! 😂

Though, I’ll take this opportunity to present some more of my Tavs and their designs! I’ve been looking forward to sharing them, so hopefully they make a good first impression! 🤭

Vulgaris

he/him, Half Wood Elf, Ranger (Gloomstalker)/Rogue (Assassin), Astarion Romancer

god the first pic is the best one I’ve taken, I can’t stop fawning over him 😍

This is my very first Tav (and later Durge) when I first played the game last August! He is one where I’ve written his character arc as if he was a companion in the game, and I’m planning a separate post dedicated to him in the future!

Vulgaris is a quiet man that’s full of mystery, who has gone through some stuff he wishes to let go and forget. He is a ‘Marksman of Malar’, a specialized huntsman under contract with the lesser deity Malar. He’s not entirely a Malarite in worship, but doesn’t bother to correct anyone if it scares them (though his story ties similarly to the Durge, which I’ll write about later).

My favorite part of his design is actually the face tattoo, namely the Ivy Trellis tattoo seen in the base game. Paired with the Key of Ancients circlet, it’s become a significant feature to his story that’s similar to Gale’s orb.

Aimilios Vencoratere

she/her, Crinti (Half-Elf/Half-Drow), Fighter (Eldritch Knight)/Cleric (War Domain; Ilmater), Gale Romancer

My second Tav! She was the first playthrough where I was introduced to modding, and I do love making pretty women! One of my favorite parts was changing her hair and armor throughout all the Acts, as she isn’t used to much of the ‘outside world’ and has to adapt to it in some shape or form.

Aimilios (born Ilphadril Myndar) is a valiant woman, born and raised in Dambrath yet a former knight from Suzail in Cormyr. She bears a Spellscar that greatly affects her magic and overall health, claiming it to be an ill-fated curse. In contrast to her domain, she worships Ilmater and questions if her judgement to an enemy’s suffering are morally true.

Syvne Nasadra

she/they, Drow (Szarkai), Monk (Way of Shadow), Karlach Romancer

Fun fact, I created Syvne for a Discord server called “Waterdeep Connections”, where Tavs/Durges can be set up with companions via matchmaking, kinda like using a Faerunian dating app! I haven’t gone far for her gameplay, but hopefully I can return after she was paired with Karlach.

Syvne is a seductive dancer by day, and a hidden spy at night. She fled her home of Ched Nasad upon its destruction, and travelled throughout Western Faerun to re-build her career from scratch. She eventually settled in Sharess’ Caress where Nym and Sorn became her sibling-figures, and she holds quite the reputation under her alias Sangris Virago.

I definitely have more Tavs and Durges that will eventually get the spotlight, but I’ve worked with these three in particular during every hyperfixated opportunity 😂. Other than my plan for Vulgaris, I’d love to make dedicated posts for each of my characters if there’s an interest!

Thank you! 🥄

hii! i'd like to request a one shot, if this prompt is interesting to you: when tav (he/him) romances karlach, there's a period before they can get her engine under control and they can finally touch. i feel like they would still get intimate before that--maybe with some mutual masturbation and heavy dirty talk?

thank you!

Of course this prompt is interesting to me!!!! I am a whore!!!!!

“Being with Karlach is not… easy. 

There’s a mutual understanding between the two of you; you’ve never said it out loud, and you probably never will, but you think you’re both on the same page: top priority – arguably even above removing the tadpoles – is fixing her engine as quickly as possible so you can finally get the relief you both crave so desperately.”

alternatively: you and karlach sneak off into the woods to do naughty stuff that involves a lot of words and a magical hand 🥴

Being with Karlach is not… easy. 

It’s not her fault, of course, the relationship you have with her is wonderful, but you can’t help the desperation you feel just being around her. It’s only made worse by the fact that you can’t fucking touch her.

There’s a mutual understanding between the two of you. You’ve never said it out loud and you probably never will, but you think you’re both on the same page: top priority – arguably even above removing the tadpoles – is fixing her engine as quickly as possible so you can finally get the relief you both crave so desperately.

You’re not actively thinking of this when Karlach approaches you, but it does cross your mind briefly as you look up at her from your position on the ground.

“Hey, soldier,” she says, the affection in her voice heavy, “What are you up to?”

You can’t help but admire the way she looks from this angle. The sharp, toned curves of her body are accentuated by the moonlight shining bright behind her, the ends of her dark hair barely tracing the lines of her shoulders, her arms crossed against her chest, which is glowing a soft red. You smile widely up at her.

You hold up the metal piece of armor in your hand, along with the damp rag you’ve been using to clean it, and Karlach lets out a small, “oh,” before sitting down on the ground next to you. She’s as close as she can be without touching you, so much so that you can feel the warmth radiating off of her arm and onto yours, causing your skin to tingle.

You do your best to push away the unhelpful thoughts fighting their way to your attention.

“You wanna talk?” You ask, sitting down the armor and turning yourself to face the tiefling. She smiles, nodding her head and crossing her legs. You admire the way the muscles in her arms tense as she leans back on her hands.

Now really isn’t the time, you think, and you force your eyes upwards.

You sit there, in silence, for a moment just watching the way Karlach’s chest rises and falls as she looks up at the sky. It’s a humid night, and you can see the slight glisten on the skin of her neck from the sweat. You feel yourself twitch in your pants.

Fuck.

“Do you think if I asked Gale nicely he’d do that thing again?” You’re pulled out of your thoughts by the question, and you furrow your brows in confusion.

“Thing?” You ask, “what thing?”

“The thing he did with the sky. Where he made it all wavy and colorful.” She keeps speaking, but your attention is placed firmly on the strap of her sleep shirt and where it meets her collarbone, dipping against the skin, a dull red glow showing through it. Your eyes travel along the bend of her sternum, down her stomach, tracing each and every individual indent and line.

You feel a heat build up in your stomach, and it pools for a moment before it travels downwards to your cock. Your breath catches in your throat.

It barely registers when Karlach stops speaking. You’re too focused on the exposed crease of her thigh, the way the meat of them spread against the dirt beneath her, skin deep red and fucking flawless.

You’re straining against the soft fabric of your pants, and you can feel the redness in your face making its way down your neck. Your hands itch with the urge to reach out and grab, to run your hands all over her and feel the heat of her skin against your palms. You stay completely still, fingers twitching at the thought. 

Your eyes flick up to meet hers, and there’s something different manifesting in them now. You have no idea how long the silence has been surrounding you, but it’s obvious by the look she’s giving you that she knows exactly what kind of depraved thoughts are making themselves at home in your brain right now.

You and Karlach have spoken about sex a couple of times before. Nothing in depth, but wishful conversations in one of your tents, discussing each other's likes and dislikes, what each of you were into, what you were absolutely not into. You’d had the occasional teasing while out adventuring – a stray comment with a little too much seriousness behind it, or a look after battle that made you feel like prey in the eyes of a predator – but you never actually did anything about it.

“Fuck,” she says, shifting against the ground uncomfortably, “if you keep looking at me like that, I’m going to do something stupid.”

You let out a dry laugh at the comment, eyes still trained on hers, and an idea flashes across your mind. It’s not well thought or considered, you’ve never done anything like it before, and you’d probably even be embarrassed at the idea if you weren’t so overwhelmed with your need for something right now.

“What if,” you start, voice soft and all breath, “what if we tried something?”

Karlach’s brows furrow, “we can’t, I’ll burn you-”

“No, I mean,” you lean closer to her, so close you can practically feel the hairs on her arm brushing against your skin, “what if we, um, touched ourselves…together?”

You wince at the inelegance of the sentence, but the look that spreads across Karlach’s face wipes away any and all doubts that may have been inhabiting your mind. Her eyes are wide, her pupils blown so wide you can barely see their usual orange glow, and the skin on her cheeks is tinted a dark red, a color that travels all the way up to the pointed tips of her ears.

She bites her lip, her eyes flickering up and down the length of your body. Her hands are fisted in the dirt beneath her, and her chest is heaving as she breathes. 

“Yeah,” her voice is quiet, but you can feel the excitement dripping off her words, “yeah, okay.”

You smile wide, teeth scraping against the soft skin of your bottom lip as you pull yourself up onto your feet. You instinctively hold your hand out to Karlach, offering to help her up, and she rolls her eyes, a humorous smile spreading across her face. 

She pushes herself up into a standing position, and motions towards you, “lead the way, soldier.”

You can barely stop yourself from straight up running into the nearby forest, your excitement pounding in your chest – and pulsating in your pants. The feeling is uncomfortable, but you push through knowing that relief is right around the corner.

You lead Karlach into the forest, weaving your way between the dense trees until you come to a clearing.

It’s very dark, the only light coming from the moon shining through the leaves above you. You turn and face Karlach, and chest illuminates the area surrounding her. She looks ecstatic, her face plastered with a large smile, her body nearly bouncing with the excitement running through her. 

You approach her slowly, pushing yourself as close to her body as you can without touching, and you ghost your hand over the exposed skin of her arm. Karlach watches your hand intently, following it up along the curve of her shoulder. 

“Gods, I wish I could touch you,” your voice is desperate, a mix of pure lust and just a tinge of sadness. She smiles up at you, eyes shimmering against the blue hue of the moon.

“Shut up,” she says, voice joking – though, you can see the same desperation mirrored in her eyes. She takes a step back and begins unlacing her sleep shirt slowly, “take your clothes off.”

You snap back into reality and immediately do as you’re told, pulling off your shirt and pants rather clumsily before staring back at Karlach.

She really is fucking beautiful, you think as your eyes scan over her naked body. Karlach is all curve and muscle, her stomach flat and taut, her thighs thick, her arms toned. Her breasts fall in the perfect way against her torso, full and round and the perfect size for her. 

You let out a shaky breath at the sight, overwhelmed at the feeling that’s settling in the core of your stomach. Your cock twitches underneath your underwear, and, at this point, it’s almost painful how hard you are. All of the thoughts flowing in your head, the sight of Karlach naked in front of you, the promise of what’s to come; it’s almost too much. You feel like you’re going to explode.

You push down your underwear, your cock springing up, relieved to finally be free of its restraints, and you kick them off into the pile of clothes next to you. Karlach makes an audible noise that sends shockwaves through you at the sight of you completely exposed.

Karlach sits herself down on the forest floor, spreading her legs open – dear Gods, you’re going to have a heart attack – and patting the space between them, beckoning for you to join her.

You don’t hesitate, rushing over and falling to your knees between her legs. You can see how wet she is, the moisture reflecting the moonlight, and you can’t help the deep desire you have to just shove your dick in her and make her feel as good as possible, burns be damned. She deserves it.

You don't, though, in favor of keeping the feeling in your member, and instead opt to admire her without touch. 

“You’re so big,” she says, voice deep, words almost unintelligible. She spreads her legs apart wider, hands resting on her lower stomach, as she maintains eye contact with you. Her eyes are lidded, pupils consuming the entirety of her iris’, and her bottom lip is kept firmly between her teeth.

“I bet you would fill me up in the best of ways, lover,” her eyes shut, her head falling back against the ground, and her hair makes a halo around her head as it spreads across the dirt. Some of it gets caught against her horns and brushes across her face in a way that frames it perfectly.

Her voice dances through your ears, causing goosebumps to rise on your skin, and you just can’t help yourself anymore. You reach down, wrapping your hand around your shaft, and begin moving in a slow, oscillating pattern. You exhale, not even realizing that you had been holding your breath, as you begin to build a rhythm.

“Gods, I would,” you stop, catching your breath before restarting, “I would fuck you until you couldn’t think of anything but me.”

Karlach lets out a soft noise, one of her hands moving from its position on her stomach downward. You follow it with your eyes, watching as she begins to rub small circles against her clit, quiet moans building up into something more real as she does so. 

“I’d like to think I’d be slow with it,” you continue, the sight of Karlach pleasuring herself only spurring you on, “I would kiss every inch of your body to make up for when I couldn’t. I would, – fuck – I would taste you until I suffocated.”

Karlach interrupts you with a loud moan, fingers moving faster against the bundle of nerves. Her back arches into her own touch, and her other arm flings up and over her face, hiding her eyes. Your grip around your cock tightens, and the pace of the strokes quicken at the sight. The dark red blush that originally flattered her face has spread down to her chest, speckling her shoulders, and every moment you stare at her just urges you closer to touch, touch, touch.

“I couldn’t control myself, though,” your voice is rough, more of a groan than anything, words slurring together, “I’d probably just fuck into you the first chance I got, have you screaming on my cock, begging for more and more of me until you just couldn’t take it anymore.”

Karlach is completely blissed out beneath you, hand jutting clumsily back and forth against herself, her other balled in a tight fist near her head. You can tell, quite obviously, that she is really enjoying this. She’s breathing heavily, moaning and gasping, her muscles in her legs and stomach flexed tight.

A thought crosses your mind, and it catches you so off guard that you let out a sudden, loud laugh. The idea is silly, sure, but something about it causes the pleasure in your stomach to build.

You could make Karlach feel good.

Karlach’s arm moves from over her eyes, her hand faltering a bit as she looks up at you, confused at the sudden noise. You give her a large smile, removing your hand from your dick and focusing your intent for a moment, eyes shut, before a life-sized blue hand manifests in-between the two of you.

Karlach’s mouth falls open in realization, her hand stopping completely. She stares for a moment, dumbstruck, before opening her mouth to speak. Before she can get a single word out, you will the hand towards her, its fingers gently caressing the inner portion of her thigh.

The wind is knocked out of her at this, and she lets out a desperate sound at the sudden touch. You can’t help the self-assured smirk that settles on your face as you move the hand in, brushing it’s fingers against hers before pressing two of it’s fingertips teasingly against her entrance.

Her whole body burns red.

“Would you like that, sweetheart?” Your hand finds its way back to your cock, tugging in slow strokes. You let your body fall forward, putting your weight on your free hand as you hover close over Karlach, careful not to touch her. Your face is so close to hers, you can feel the heat emanating from her skin, and it sends shivers down your spine.

Karlach’s hand resumes rubbing small, rough circles against her clit, her eyes locked. 

“Would you like being so full of me you can’t think of anything else?” You can feel the heat building in your stomach as you listen and watch the pleasure completely take over your lover, climbing towards your climax abruptly. You do your best to hold back, and the hand pushes its fingers inside of Karlach. Her eyes fall shut and her head tips back, mouth hanging open at the feeling.

The fingers begin a slow pace, pumping in and out of her, causing her to arch further upward. Her hand quickens its assault against her core, and her breath hastens, blowing warm against your face. The fingers speed up inside her, curling upwards against a spot that makes her practically purr beneath you, and you can feel your climax approaching rapidly.

You take in the sight, the animalistic nature of Karlach completely enraptured by pleasure beneath you, her body shaking. You look down, between the two of you, and you admire the glowing, blue hand fucking into her relentlessly, her body pressing down to meet it’s thrusts, and you just can’t take it anymore.

You nearly burst apart as you cum, your arm trembling under the weight of your body, and your seed shooting across the plane of Karlach’s stomach up onto her chest. The mage hand falters a bit inside her at the lack of concentration, and she pouts, a deep whine resonating in her chest. You quickly resume the persistent rhythm, your eyes flickering back up to watch her face as it twists with pleasure.

Every moan that falls out of her mouth is more intense than the last, every thrust bringing her closer and closer to her peak. Her eyes are screwed shut, her brows furrowed deeply, her mouth hanging slightly open, and you are just in awe. Everything about her is calling to you: the way she looks, her sounds, her heat.

She opens her eyes and looks at you, a desperate “don’t you dare fucking stop,” falls from her mouth, muddled between moans and sharp breaths. She’s close, you can tell by the way she’s breathing, by the way her hand clumsily slides against her soaking wet crux, desperate for relief.

You don’t know what comes over you, maybe your brain is completely clouded by the ethereal sight beneath you, or maybe it’s the weeks of desperation that have built up finally overflowing, but you lean in, pressing your lips against Karlach’s intensely as she reaches her apex.

Her lips burn against yours, but you can’t bring yourself to pull away, relishing in the feeling of finally – fucking finally – being able to kiss her properly. The kiss is sloppy, the way your tongue slides against hers is messy and awkward, but you don’t even care. She cries into your mouth as she comes, the fire in her chest the brightest you’ve ever seen it, and you concentrate as well as you can on stopping the motions of the mage hand.

You stay there for a moment, Karlach breathing heavily against you, mouths pressed together in a perfect moment that’s been a long time coming. You want to hold her, to reach out and feel every part of her against the palms of your hands, but before you can commit to it, she pushes at your shoulder, the fire burning into your skin.

You pull away, immediately feeling the aching burn in your lips, and sit back on your knees. Karlach’s chest is rising and falling heavily, and despite the pain, you take a moment to fully appreciate how utterly fucked out she looks.

“That was,” her voice is barely a whisper, “really good. The ending was stupid on your part but… fuck. Thank you.” 

She smiles up at you, wide and happy, her eyes full of affection.

Your heart skips a beat.

This woman is going to kill you.

Ayyyy my anon ask! *Kiss of perfection*

Recently started play BG3, only on act 2 right now lol. I found your blog because this shit is my current hyper fixation and I love your writing. I was wondering if you could write how the BG3 cast would react to Tav haveing hanahaki disease.

Love you're writing!

Astarion

Oh, when he notices, he feels an odd lurch in his chest.

You’re in love with someone? Who? It had better be him, he’s put effort into seducing you.

When he works out that he’s the object of your desire he’s over the moon! And then… ah. But it is a disease after all.

A lot of intense emotions flow through him. Of course he loves you, he’d be a fool not to. But can he admit that to you? Open his heart enough to let you in?

He sees you hacking up blood red roses and thinks, gods, if a few simple words are all this will take to solve it, why wouldn’t he?

He sits down next to you as you wipe your mouth, all awkward angles and longing gazes. Not his usual suave self at all. You go to ask him what’s wrong, and he blurts out that he loves you like he’s under duress.

You blink, amazed if slightly mortified by his tone, but then your lips curl into a smile. When you kiss him your mouth tastes of rosewater. Never does another petal pass your lips, and never does Astarion regret his confession.

Gale

When he sees you bringing up Sussur petals, he panics. It’s affecting your magic after all. Slowing your spells and causing lethargy in your casting.

He throws himself into research. Night and day he’s in his books looking for a cure. He rarely sleeps any more. Not until he comes up with a solution for you.

You’re getting worse and he’s being driven mad by it. If he could find out who you love he could help, but he simply has no idea…

Silly wizard has no idea the solution is right under his nose. Always has been. Because of course he loves you too, wants nothing more than to hold you and have you as his.

It takes the rest of the camp pointing it out to him before he realises, and doesn’t know how he could be so dense… but he knows he’s the luckiest man in the world if you love him.

He confesses in the middle of your coughing fit. The petals stop immediately. He would seal the look of adoration you give him into his heart forever.

No more Sussur. No more problems. Just joy.

Wyll

He’s seen this a dozen times in his youth. Time and time again people have perished from their courtly love in a flurry of flowers.

When he sees it happening with you? Oh, he knows immediately what is happening.

Doesn’t believe you’d be in love with him… but then he sees the loving looks you give him, the softness in your eyes. It clicks into place rather quickly.

And when he realises, you best bet he’s making a move to cure you.

An immediate embrace. A kiss where he tastes the petals on your lips. Your eyes are wide, but your throat is clear.

“I love you,” he states, no hesitations, just facts. There will be time for great romance later, but right now he just needs to make sure you’re safe.

When he’s certain your condition is cleared, no more coughing, he embraces you long and lovingly. Tells you what you mean to him. And when you plan your wedding… there will be no flowers.

Karlach

Panics when she finds you coughing petals. She might have been in Avernus for the past decade, but she knows hanahaki when she sees it.

Corners you one night and begs you to tell her who you’ve fallen for. She’ll help you confess!! After all, how could anyone not feel the same about you? Anything is better than this, this purgatory of petals where love is being kept secret.

Your smile is wobbly when you tell her there might be a time span on this person’s love. She thinks, oh, Gale? Because of the orb?

It takes a moment for things to fall into place. The way you look at her. Like she hung the stars.

“Oh, fuck. It’s me isn’t it?”

You go to leave, she grabs you and holds you back. Pulls you into a kiss. Only stops to tell you that she loves you. Goes right back to kissing.

It’s then she decides not to die. To find a way to live with you, even if it means returning to hell. How could she abandon you, when you love her so much?

Lae’zel

She is so utterly confused when you start hacking up petals. Is it a disease? Some sign of weakness? It is certainly nothing that a gith has ever experienced, nor would fall foul of. They are too strong.

Lae’zel mocks you at first, like she mocks everything, but it’s in order to hide how much seeing you suffer hurts her. She is a fool to have affections for someone so weak.

… isn’t she?

One night she corners Gale (quite intimidatingly) and gets him to inform her of your condition. He tells her all about hanahaki, and she says she must find out who you are in love with and get them to return your affections.

Gale blinks. “Lae’zel… it’s you.”

Oh.

It takes her a moment to digest this. She leaves Gale abruptly (“goodbye then?”), finds you, and drags you to privacy.

“I have been told to cure your disease you need a confession of love. This is my confession.”

The petals do not stop as you cough. With a small smile, a little smug, you tell her she has to be more specific. She huffs and you laugh.

She tells you she loves you in every language she knows. It works.

Shadowheart

The most perceptive of the bunch, Shadowheart knows you are in love with her from the moment you cough up Night Orchid petals.

It’s not subtle that you’re sweet on her. But she doesn’t say anything in return - she’s a sharran, after all, and doesn’t know how you fit with her future of being a dark justiciar.

And then… she finds selûne, and it changes. All of it. Especially her view of you. She can open her heart without fear now and she wants to welcome you in it.

She takes you aside one night. Sets up dinner. A bottle of the wine you shared on that first night by the cliff. Takes your hand and tells you she loves you, as easily as if she’s commenting on the weather.

You stop coughing. The petals cease. Your face lights up. She knows she wouldn’t change this for the world.

I am promoting my fanfiction because I like it and you might also like it if you enjoy a healthy lesbian relationship that is only weighed down by their circumstances. Anyway I love Karlach so much but her story hurts me and it would also hurt my Tav. Not being able to really address it up until the point where she is like about to explode is a lot.
