larian please hire me, I wanna draw full issue ;u;
the way a romanced astarion unpacks everything when you get the good ending for his personal quest is lowkey funny tho
like. he basically sums up the entire point of his journey and confirms explicitly that you did, in fact, make the exact right choices to help him grow????
the writers really drive home this idea of just "that's it! you did it! you uncovered the secret to making him a good person, and it turns out the only requirements were to give a shit about him and believe he's capable of doing the right thing!! literally just those two things and nothing else!!"
first in the graveyard
side note, "you trusted me when that was an objectively stupid thing to do" is one of my favorite lines because it just sums up really the whole experience of his romance gfjdklgjdf
then later in casual conversation
[tav: you saved yourself, i just gave you a push]
it's all really sweet and lovely and emotional but also. REALLY funny to me. because there are all those people who go "astarion is an irredeemable piece of shit with no soul and everyone who likes him is in denial of how much he sucks"
meanwhile astarion's just out there like "thanks for keeping me from becoming the worst possible version of myself by exercising empathy instead of just writing me off as a hateful pile of garbage โค love u"
really incredible. absolute masterpiece
When Astarion says โI prayed to all the gods. They never answeredโ and Wyll says โthe only thing a godโs ever given me is a cold shoulderโ and when Minthara says โthere are no gods left for meโ
if you even get it.
i made a self indulgent astarion/tav comic because theres no option to comfort hug him every night
i put it on twitter might as well throw this here too
set after raiding cazador's palace
halsinโs pretty cool i guess
POV the last piece of your grand evil scheme walks into the room for the first time and they have โforeheadโ tattooed on their forehead
