every time i draw them being cute together i have to also draw them being deeply irritating to maintain perspective and universal balance

#nox #astarion #bg3 #my art #my ocs #first one works either way bc i dont think either of them are big criers but they ARE both the type to tear up when things get emotional #and then immediately use it in an argument

Hot Take: Astarion does NOT hate flowers. You just missed a few subtle hints through Act 1 and early Act 3.

Astarion's negativity is directed toward just about anything remotely pleasant as you move through early act three, starting the moment you leave Wyrm's Rock. First thing after Gortash's coronation he marvels near tears at the colors of the city in daylight. If you ask if he's alright, it pisses him off.

There's other instances I can't quite remember but he's a straight crank throughout early Act 3 and it took me several hours of gameplay to have a lightbulb moment about his newly crappier attitude.

He just spent the last two hundred years seeing everything in the overwhelmingly warm dim tones of indoor lighting via sconces, rushlights, and braziers, or the dingy blue gray of moonlight outside. Daylight colors are something he had more than a lifetime to forget and now that he has a chance to remember that vibrancy in his own home town, he knows he's going to have to forget it all over again either by death or by remaining a vampire spawn forever. The worm isn't going to live rent free in his head forever, and killing Cazador to ascend in his place likely feels like an insurmountable and impossible fight against a literal titan who could stomp him flat without a corm of effort.

He doesn't hate flowers, he hates EVERYTHING right now because it's all going away very soon and if he convinces himself he hates everything then he won't miss it when it's all gone again. He was denied this for two hundred years and he's PISSED at what was stolen from him and PISSED it's all going away again.

He behaved similarly in Act 1 about anyone besides him enjoying physical intimacy. Some of this content was cut, to my best knowledge, but the overwhelming majority of his dialog addressing the PC romancing anyone but him are negative or backhanded. This is for two reasons, I think. A: his Simple Plan just dissolved right before his eyes when you chose someone else which in his mind means he has zero safety net, and EVERYONE gets to enjoy sex (key wording being ENJOY, not simply having) except him... And it pisses him off.

He also gleefully interrupts the bug bear and the ogress, I think for the same reason as the above paragraph, being: If he doesn't get to enjoy intimacy neither do they.

He reacts with anger and disgust at anything he's being unfairly denied. Which... That's fair. His feelings are valid, but his reaction to it is pretty shitty and meanspirited.

The other companions I tend to keep in my party, (that is Lae'zel, Halsin, Karlach, and Wyll) however, are actually appearing to behave pretty patiently with him in Act 3 which I find interesting.

In the instance with the flowers Karlach doesn't bother trying to convince him otherwise of his opinion, she just tells him how they make her feel instead and rather than getting snippy or doubling down he more or less agrees to disagree. I also don't recall anyone disagreeing with Astarion during Gale's last quest tasks when he mentioned that he quit praying to gods who wouldn't hear him a long time ago but to be fair, I think the gods did everybody in this crew dirty and they all know it. It seems like they're consciously giving him the space to be mad about things, is what I'm saying.

Everyone I know including myself who crawled out of a long-term hot garbage situation kinda went wild for a bit with freedom, spoke poorly, behaved strangely, had extreme emotional reactions to things, and made some particularly terrible choices. I think that's just a part of recalibrating yourself, healing and learning how to be okay again.

Point is, I wouldn't conflate too many of the turbo-negative things he says with how he actually feels about anything. We certainly know what he says and what he feels are two very different things.

Imagine leaving more and more stuff in Astarion’s tent as your relationship with him develops.

It starts small, maybe you just forget that shirt you usually wear at night. Astarion just picks it up and carries it with him in his pack, slightly irritated by your forgetfulness. It smells so pleasantly of you though. And the smile you give him when he hands it back to you gives him that weird warm feeling in his chest. You keep *forgetting* it on his bedroll in the mornings. But Astarion has stopped questioning it. Just takes in your lingering scent and then packs it time and again with a small smile on his lips.

Then suddenly you also keep forgetting your comb. Another time it's the book you've been reading recently. Adventure doing a thing to your focus, huh? The vampire just packs them up along with his stuff.

Implicitly, you both know that you're doing it on purpose, at least you do. But there's something about putting your finger on truths right under your nose. And you don't mention it to him.

Astarion still doesn't fully get why you're doing it. But he surely doesn't mind you having to come and *retrieve* your stuff all the time. Until it's your wholeass pillow and blanket and he can't keep quiet about it anymore.

Is he supposed to carry *your* pillow around now? What kind of weird thing you are trying to pull on him? But when you pout at him and argue that you have to drag it over to his tent every night anyway because you haven't used your own tent in weeks, it finally clicks for him.

Those things you leave with him just go to show what neither of you can't put fully into words yet: that there's a desperate desire in both of you to be close to each other, always.
