Demagh "Dem" Tav @joasakura wanted in on the wing situation too - in context of this adventure setting, he not only takes on the wings of his gold draconic bloodline, but the horns and tail too. He also may be a bit scalier than usual. Where Karlach and Tav's wings reflect their shared human and infernal heritage, Dem's are shaped much directly by the dragon in him. Despite the unusual wing plan, he is still flight capable, although finding pants might be troublesome.

Modern AU - Tav and Karlach care for Dem's (@joasakura) "Cat" Lester (a rescue Gremiska) while he's away doing emergency rescue dive training up in Waterdeep. Tav may have forgotten that he's not actually a cat, but they have a good week regardless. Tav is willing to be patient letting him settle, but Karlach is eager to play and plies Lester with treats as per Dem's instructions. He is an extremely spoiled boy, and warms up pretty quickly (and is allowed to destroy some things at his leisure - though his favorite is Dem's old boot.)

Also, Tav and Karlach know Dem is a very protective dad, threaten to tattoo Lester, and get Astarion to work a little photoshop magic to send him this:

Dem absolutely flips out that "the tieflings have defaced my cat!!!" however, Astarion already gave Dem's brothers the heads up that this is a prank AND it was Tav and Karlach's idea (Astarion is already on thin ice with Dem.)

T&K send a bunch of photos to assure Dem Lester is fine, as he was threatening to hop back to Baulder's Gate and rescue his pet. They didn't mean to make his week more stressful but they couldn't help their nonsense.

(Also, being a vocal mimic, Lester learns some INTERESTING new sounds during the week - although Tav and Karlach swear they locked him out of the bedroom. It's only fair though, he's demonstrated some... interesting sounds himself to them already;

Tav "Huh, never knew Dem was a screamer. Should have figured."

You can't tell me Modern AU Baulder's Gate doesn't have haunted houses (I'm sure there's some autumnal inversion festival... everyone loves some sort of autumnal inversion festival) - Tav, Karlach, Dem (@joasakura), and Halsin are on a double date and having a... good time?

Tav is very hair trigger on the punching and has already been banned from several haunted houses (she was very very sorry, and forked over a lot of cash in apology) so Karlach is holding down her arms in this one. This doesn't mean she still didn't try to climb Dem with just her legs. Poor Halsin is having to wrangle his boyfriend and these idiots.
