Hey I Saw You Across The Room At The Devil's Sacrament And Loved Your Vibe

“But Tav/Durge, what’s worse - kidnapping Astarion or destroying the muppets?”

Had so much fun puppet-ifying everyone else in the origins crew. And if there ever were a muppet-ified BG3 movie, Astarion would make a fantastic non muppet. He’d probably have a stroke or something.

trying to be a writer is so scary. like what if I’m actually a Wronger

Now, planning my own post-game narrative without the structure of the game as a guide may be tricky to make complete and satisfying but, honestly, I am just so glad to be out of realm of writing Act 3 that I barely even feel it.

Act 3 is definitely my least favourite in a lot of ways, especially when it comes to trying to make a narrative out of it. There's so much going on that it just feels impossible to cover it all, so I had to resort to time skips and just covering the bits that'll be relevant later for my own sanity, but then it felt like I was glossing over things and worrying that would make everything feel all disjointed and, ugh.

And act 3 is so loud as well, I got so overstimulated all the time, there's all these people endlessly milling about everywhere and everyone's talking constantly - and those bloody magicians outside Sorcerous Sundries, oh my god, don't even get me started. That's probably why I like Act 2 so much, come to think of it. It's nice and dark and quiet out there, there's no one around but you and your friends unless you intentionally go to a population centre like Last Light. I find it very soothing for an area that was definitely intended to be horrific.

So, yeah, glad to be out of there.

Anyway, back to planning.

Slight delay on the next chapter, but should hopefully only be a one (maybe two) day delay like the last one, fingers crossed.

Crazy how many people want characters in fiction to speak and act like they’ve had 20 hours of intensive therapy. Could NOT be me I want these bitches fucked up insane

where it's at!!

Chapter 4!! Time for Wyll to learn quite how far Turmeric's extended breakdown has taken her! Yay!

And also a lot of surname talk. Does Jaheria have a surname? It feels like she should but I couldn't find one, so. So, that's the end of the sentence. I don't know why I put so there like I'd have something to add.

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.

Just when you thought you were safe, here I come to hit you with the old one-two!

As in, TWO CHAPTERS- though you probably will want to read the one in Wings Outstretched first - but they might work the other way round now I think on it. Up to you, I guess.
