Act I Asterion to Tav: Fuck you. Why do you wanna know so much about me? give me 20 dollars and a litre of blood or fuck off

Act I Asterion to Dark Urge: Are you okay baby? do you need a little murder? You're so valid. *kisses forehead*

Me and the bad bitch I pulled by acting evil

My character got downed in bg3 and Astarion shouted "No you cant die get up damn you!" In such a torn tone i had to pause and take a minute

"Ah, fine. I'll be here eating dirt or whatever."

Rare scene of Astarion confessing vampirism to Tav w/o the bite

Haven't seen this video before as pretty much everyone gets the vampire bite scene and finds out that way (or, you know, by looking at him for more than 3 seconds). Nyloth has somehow managed to not trigger the bite, so eventually Astarion broke the "news" himself.

I rather like all the exchanges, but it's particularly entertaining to see Astarion "cashing in" on his seduction plan. Tav gets a chance to send him away after "the reveal", and Astarion is immediately like "Did our night together mean nothing to you???"

The bit where Astarion swears he'll behave after Tav expresses some distrust cracks me up too (1:40)

sir stop flirting I'm already spread-eagled on the bedroll

Seeing people swoon and love Astarion from Baldur's Gate 3 on this website is so fun to me, like yeah, I'm a Elfy-Vampire girlie too but watching this website fall more and more in love with this guy feels like watching the birth of another Tumblr Sexyman (I mean that in the most affectionate way btw) and like...just nature is healing.

“I thought I smelled something delicious." 🩸

NEW WIFE JUST DROPPED

I'll be his wife if he wants me too

Gosh I love Astarion's story and his romance. The idea of him reclaiming ownership of his body and of sex and it not having to be a performative act or something he has to do all the time because someone else wants it and being something he chooses to do because he cares about someone and wants to rather than because he feels it is something he has to do for various reasons. I love that we have this character who comes across so sexual and yet actually, has an arc that sees him finally having bodily autonomy and using it and utilising it.

Apparently people have complained about the fade to black in the scene after his quest if you convince him he's better than Cazador, the graveyard scene. Apparently, 'dark Astarion' scene is not a fade to black. But I had no problems with it. It's very symbolic of sex no longer being performative for him and I think, a character like Astarion actually benefits from that. You can write all the smut you want with him in your free time, but the reality is that it fits with his character arc, it makes sense for him to move away from performative sexual acts in the view of the audience, under a gaze, and move towards private acts which are wanted by him and which reflect his feelings towards the MC. I mean that whole entire scene is him talking about how he doesn't really know who he was or who he is and how he wants to move forward and grow.

Astarion can be sexy and hot and also not simply a sexual object for your MC and you to gawk at. I like the depth to him, I adored his story of taking ownership of his body. I adore that he loves the MC because they are kind to him and respect his boundaries and give him choice. I love him and I love him growing and discovering himself and taking back autonomy and I think if you care about a character and their arc and if your MC cares about that character then that character saying 'hey, I actually don't want to just have sex with you', shouldn't be something you whine and complain about, you should feel a sense of respect towards that. I think a sexy vampire actually caring more about you than sex or your blood is actually a great take for once, vampires are so symbolic of a lack of control, of uncontrollable lust and thirst and whims. So to see him have that sense of self and also sense of control about him is actually refreshing. He is in control, and he is learning what he wants and what he deserves.

Idk, I just really love his story and I fell so head over heels for the sassy vampire spawn and how he actually really cares and is deeply scared of so many things. I adore him and I think we should respect his storyline and enjoy it because how many times do we actually get a storyline like that?

I love his gestures are so affected but they suit him so well😌

looool I hadn't noticed this in game before but Astarion looking at her like 'damn gurl, you're more openly thirsty than I am right now'
