Every day I wake up and cast Speak With Animals.
Devastating to have more evidence that done IS better than perfect
being self aware suuuucks like yeah this thought pattern/behavior is stupid and pointless and a symptom. i know this. [does it anyways
Chapter 16!!!! - The Bloodbath
Here I go getting into a writing frenzy for the exciting climatic boss fight chapter - and AO3 starts lagging just as I go to post it!
Teaches me for thinking I could get a chapter out so early and have everything go smoothly, I suppose. Ah well, I hope everyone enjoys it at least - when they get the chance to read it, that is!
And we’re off! Next story is up on AO3, and updates should come at least once every ten days as with previous (I just realised I’m working off a tenday-based schedule, this was not intentional), and I will try to post here in case of a delay.
I will always hold steadfast I don't care what people in my notes say: Astarion's pickup lines are very cringy, but they are really endearing when he's listing them off fully aware that they are cringy and bad during the tiefling party. Hence why I pick the "You're sweet, and sillier than I thought." option. He's just goofing around and having fun in that moment.
He made those lines up fully aware that they were going to be used on idiots in a bar and then Petras the Bitch stole them.
Like the whole "darling, I was just thinking about you" dialogue tree is 50% him believing that you are an idiot, and 50% him not realizing that people fell for his looks and not his stupid lines at the Elfsong.
The man's definition of poetry is "The Underdark's got it's upsides for a vampire. Or, undersides? Youibdjsja you know what I mean."
Chapter 15!!!!
Bit of an odd time in the day for posting, but I'm going to be busy later and I didn't want it to be delayed so SURPRISE!
You may have noticed the chapter count has gone up to 17 – I'm aware I said it would be 16 earlier but some things got shifted around, so. It may still go up to 18 depending on how long the final chapter gets, we shall see.

I'm sorry but I have one draft that I never finished but I laugh every time I see it
You couldn't take Astarion to see Nosferatu in the theater. Not because it'd be triggering for him or anything. But because every five minutes, he'd turn to you with the saddest eyes imaginable and hysterically ask, "I don't look like that, right?! Most vampires don't look like that!" And you'd have to reassure him through the whole 132 minutes run time.
I write BG3 fanfic about having a bad time and learning to carry on anyway! It's good fun! And also devastating!
