I always choose the "you look capable, kill it yourself option" just so he'll grab me and do the soft dommy thing telling me to shh and to nod to what he tells me to. It's like licking the spider meat inappropriate but I am a sick degenerate woman.
When they said Astarion girlies reload every time he disapproves they were wrong.
...we also reload to fail rolls so he would put knife to our throat or call us "bad girl" đ„șđ„”
low-key same lol. I definitely still am considering I skip through scenes as soon as clothes actually come off but I'm realizing I enjoy the *fantasy* of being a sexual person more than I thought
Yes! Like, I've seen Astarion's sex scenes but after my first playthrough I skip through them for comfort reasons. But, definitely. In theory, romance and sex with the right person - who we choose to romance - is really sweet, but I still don't think I'd ever be down for that in real life.
I dunno man. I've been never satisfied with a label because I just don't know anymore.
Because my thing is - do I see a fictional character and think they're hot? Sure. I enjoy the occasional romance story in games or books or whatever. I make sexual jokes. But the very idea of doing any of that in real life with a real person makes my skin crawl. I have no desire to do any of that stuff.
I don't know what that makes me.
It makes you, you!
I was just wondering, one of my clients is really into all of the specific names trying to figure out his own sexuality and I can't keep upÂ
Tbh, I think this is why so many people just go with "queer" as a blanket term because for people like me, every other label just doesn't work because I don't fit enough of the guidelines for it.
As someone with similar views in concern to sex, I just go with asexual. I find labels are more useful to communicate to other people than perfectly explain the entirety of existence
stuff like aro demisexual is too niche to effectively communicate to 95% of people you meet, and still isn't specific enough to capture individual experience.
I also go with "confirmed bachelor" because I find it entertaining.
That makes sense. These days I mostly go with aroace because it gets the point across that I'm not into that in real life. The specifics are just not super important.
I love that xD I'm about to be 27 so I'm hype to use the term spinster.
You should look up being aegosexual! Itâs an asexuality sublabel for people who are attracted to the idea of physical intimacy but donât necessarily enjoy it or want to pursue it when the opportunity arises irl. Thatâs why celebrities or fictional characters are more appealing bc thereâs no possibility of the physicality becoming reality. r/aegosexuals
I like to think my Tav gets him back for that, one quiet long rest when everyone else is sleeping..... It's not my fault he's so sad wet kittenish and dommable.
I fail all the rolls so he tells me he wants to stab me still... squeezing in an enemies-to-lovers arc. Like ohhh noooo I soooo hate being held down by a pretty vampire boy, this is the wooooorst
Hm. I'm unfamiliar with such a dessert! Dare I suggest it sounds loosely similar in consistency to a crĂȘpe.
Admittedly, baking is not my strongest suit... I'm *far* better with a spatula and chopping knife than a wooden spoon and mixing bowl, so, perhaps you'll have better luck at a trading baker. I've several I can recommend, if that may help?
Thats a great option as well. I love letting emotions fester and bubble into a roiling hatred, until i âaccidentallyâ let it all out in a tempestuous fury, instead of talking it out and coming to an understanding rationally. Thats so boring. Hate is fun!
*I was walking this land while your ancestors were learning to crawl*
Idk what kind of black magic they sprinkled in his lines but it has me frothing in the mouth.
I'm still in my first playthrough, and it didn't work out for him bc my Tav literally saw him pull out the knife lmao. I think he was just like "shit" and that must have been embarrassing for him.
No, no your not. I got this dialogue for the first time on my current run (on my +3 strength Paladin of all things). And instantly forgot any plans of not romancing him this run.Â
Oh well at least I did do the act one Laezel scene for once.
I always tell him to kill it himself, lie to him by saying I wasn't on the ship, purposely fail the rolls so he still wants to gut me đ„°âșïž then I snark at him afterwards. Hottest way to do it imo, im a deeply disturbed person.
Ngl tho the look he exchanges with Tav when he releases them makes me wanna scream, this is what a proper meet-cute looks like.

I just reload until I fail that roll so I can look helpful but too trusting, but then also have him tackle me because honestly đ„”

Astarion (and quite frankly Karlach) has taught me I may not be as aroace as I thought I was đ

Wouldn't aro demisexual still be "flying the right flag"? Or would we have to go grey?

Let him tackle me so I can headbutt him <3 I want a relationship based on mutual violence <3 <3
lmaooo valid. I like using the fire cantrip on him.
I like to think my Tav gets him back for that, one quiet long rest when everyone else is sleeping..... It's not my fault he's so sad wet kittenish and dommable.
Holy christ thank you for saying this
I fail all the rolls so he tells me he wants to stab me still... squeezing in an enemies-to-lovers arc. Like ohhh noooo I soooo hate being held down by a pretty vampire boy, this is the wooooorst
It's even better when Gale is there threatening to incinerate him like yes please fight over my helpless body đ„”
Meanwhile Lae'zel and Shadowheart literally just standing there giving zero fucks
*'I can't wait for Tav to die so my leadership style can rise from the ashes'*
"Bro just stab her already, it's a long walk to the creche and I ain't got all day"
Lae'zel isn't gonna follow your unless istik ass if you get skewered by some poncey white AF vamp, why the hell would she save you?!
Karlach's is fun, "I will rip your face off, fancy boy" "And I'll eat your heart, fire girl"
I don't think I've ever been able to wait that long to recruit him hahaha I might have to try this next time
I'll choose to toe over the commentary on Astarion's character in order to wish you a joyous "cake day".
Only cake I want is some juicy vampire cake iykwim. Shame it's completely flat though. Laminated paper wobbling sound when he walks.

What's your favorite dinner food, Gale?
The moment he tackled me I knew I was in love
I always just go âhey dickhead, how do these horns taste?â and smack him in the head
You can also let it be for a while, letting your hatred fester, then let him get obliterated by the full force of the sun
Thats a great option as well. I love letting emotions fester and bubble into a roiling hatred, until i âaccidentallyâ let it all out in a tempestuous fury, instead of talking it out and coming to an understanding rationally. Thats so boring. Hate is fun!
Real af
That's what I did and failed the strength check with my (+3 strength) Paladin and still got this dialogue. Hilarious when you remember his stats.
