i love astarion’s voice acting just in general like he’s so much fun to listen to 100% of the time but while his post-cazador scene is breathtaking i feel like karlach’s voice actor while more understated in the general gameplay has the most insane powerhouse monologues in the game. her post-gortash scenes, the dock scene… UNMATCHED. incredible. “is this all there is??” and “goodbye sun, goodbye sea” and all of it lives in my head forever
prompt: “dont get up– i’ll do it.” or reader gets home late and just wants to go to bed.
a/n: first time writing for leon!!! also i think leon’s love language is acts of service and quality time (just for a little bit of context lol) this is an incredibly self indulgent and super short piece
“leon! i’m home!” you call into your shared apartment as you enter the front door. you lock the door behind you and start heading towards your bedroom, dropping your bag off on the kitchen counter.
“hi love,” leon says softly with a gentle smile, “you look exhausted.”
“i am,” you admit with a small giggle.
you quickly get ready to go to bed; taking a quick shower, changing into pjs, brushing your teeth, and your skincare routine (of course!!). you finally walk back into the bedroom and get cozy in bed, cuddling with your bf.
all of a sudden, you let out a defeated groan, “i forgot to turn the fan onnn.”
as you go to rip the covers off of you, leon stops you, “don’t get up– i’ll do it.” he gives you a small peck on the cheek and goes and quickly turns the fan on. you return the small peck onto his cheek and quietly thanking him before drifting off into a peaceful sleep.
listen normally im like i dont think i could ever ascend astarion in my game, its such a sad ending i dont want him to kill all those people and get absorbed by power and lose his sense of self and all his character growth and repeat the same cycles of abuse that were inflicted on him, etc etc, but then i read this post
and when i tell you my eyes bugged out of my head. the way i Lit Up and went holy shit for real?? reading “16-36 damage bite”. basically
