[ Astarion feels prickles of cold sweat on the back of his neck again, and he reaches up to wipe them away. There are plenty of reasons a handsome tiefling could be looking for him. Maybe because he's a handsome elf, and it's completely reasonable to follow someone this good-looking back to his inn in the hopes of having a crumb of attention thrown your way. Or maybe, the paranoid part of himself thinks, because he has ill intentions. There's a godsdamned vampire lord in town, after all. Who knows how many spawn or thralls or, hell, just hired mercenaries he has? Cazador had his spindly fingers in every pie, so why would his, ugh, penpal be any different? ]
