people who complain about gale yapping too much don’t understand the sixth secret love language: infodumping

#like if i’m not telling you everything about smth i love… we are not tight #i fell for him immediately bc i was like OH!!! HES DOING WHAT I DO TO EVERYONE I LOVE!!! SHUT UP!!’ #also character who is so ready to fall first and harder… how could i resist #gale dekarios #gale of waterdeep #baldurs gate 3 #bg3

I truly wonder if white fans are even capable of understanding how hard it is just being in a fandom space when you're not white. How alienated you feel every other day. How often you're told "it's not that big a deal" or "it's just a fantasy game get over it" or "it doesn't matter" or "go save the rainforest instead of crying over a game" or etc. etc. etc. to the point where you yourself start to question if there's something wrong with you... that it's your fault for being hurt all the time. Because it's never just about one racist mod, or one piece of whitewashed art, or one offensive post... it's all of it. Together. All the time. It's so fucking exhausting and it's why POC quit fandom spaces a lot.

#had a hard time deciding if i should post this on my main or here #ended up with this one cause i'm specifically thinking about bg3 fandom at this time #but it's certainly not unique to bg3 #anyway i'll shut up now

lae'zel said the realest thing about the gale/mystra situation when she said "mystra demands absolute faith from gale but has no faith in him" like 🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌🤌 i wish there was more of lae'zel and gale losing their religion in a corner together

#bg3 spoilers #bg3 #sorry i am not shutting up about gale today

[recents]

so we all know astarion was named after the minotaur of greek myth, who, despite widely known as the minotaur (“bull of minos”), was named astarion/asterion (“starry one”) by his mother at birth. asterion the minotaur was trapped in a labyrinth and cursed to devour virginal men and women thrown in there as sacrifices.

”The House of Asterion” is a 1947 short story by Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges that retells the story of the minotaur from the minotaur’s point of view. it’s one of his best early short stories and it’s very short, only 3 pages long. you can read it here.

borges is in my top 3 favorite writers of all time, and “The House of Asterion” obviously deserves to be considered on its own merits, so i feel slightly irreverent connecting this text to a recent video game. but i reread this short story today and there was much to think about, there were many more seeds planted in my mind in terms of interpretations of the minotaur myth and how asterion the minotaur relates to the story of astarion the vampire. i think it will for you, too.

anyway. if you don’t click through and read it, please at least read how it ends, remembering, of course, that the speaker is asterion the minotaur:

CRY WITH ME. #maybe im the only person openly weeping abt this in *connection* to astarion bg #the story itself is more than enough to make you weep #god theres something about #I hope he will take me to a place with fewer galleries and fewer doors. #also like. obviously. tav as the redeemer. #‘will he be like me?’ (full of trembling hope) makes me think of durge tav ok shut up #the way ‘my loneliness no longer bothers me’ is so clearly not true from the rest of the pragraph #OKAY

so let me get this straight. one of the main bad guys in bg3 is a burly goth with his tits out, who is voiced by Jason Isaacs, and who offers you an alliance that sounds an awful lot like a marriage proposal if you don't immediately try to fight him, AND also implies the two of you were *very* close pre-amnesia and just generally gets a big smile on his face when other npcs talk about you if you play as a specific premade character...and you CAN'T fuck him???

til there's an oathbreaker dialogue when you meet aylin with balthazar

#the oathbreaker stance of pursuing your own freedom and autonomy is saur interesting considering that the oathbreaker is like #the 'evil' paladin route #but for shri'iia she's doing more good deeds and being much more honorable when she's an oathbreaker paladin than she was #when she was still following lolth lool but then again she was an ideal paladin in like lolth society standards #so when she's unexpectedly brought in an environment where they dont share the same ideals and sentiments she becomes the worst paladin eve #but like down there she was really good tbf lool #shut up about bg3. #bg3 spoilers

[beaft]

every time i think i've made progress in teaching astarion how to behave like a regular person he does something absolutely unhinged and i have to get out the water spritzer again. truly one step forward five steps back

#*psh psh* SHUT UP ABOUT THE ASCENSION RITUAL #bg3

[forcedhesitation]

astarion origin playthrough worth it just for all the extra moments where he does the "sad wet cat" face

#bg3 #bg3 spoilers #thoughts about media #astarion #*kisses his forehead* my awful little bastard man... i love you and your big sad watery eyes. #IT'S SO FUCKING QUIET THOUGH IF YOU YOURSELF ARE PLAYING HIM GOOD LORD #I'M SO USE TO HIM COMPLAINING TO MY TAV!!!! #OR BANTERING WITH HIM OR KARLACH OR WYLL!!! #I MISS HIS THEATRICS!!!!!!! #not that it's ENTIRELY quiet. until i found karlach i was travelling with shadowheart lae'zel and gale. #and let me tell you. gale and lae'zel do NOT shut the fuck up if they are together. #they were literally having an entire tinder date while we were trecking through the woods to go get karlach. #i NEVER knew they talk so much because while i've travelled with them individually in past saves... #...i've NEVER had them in my party at the same time! #gale is actually pretty nice to lae'zel! he asks a lot of questions but doesn't condescend her as he does others sometimes. #that's probably because he's afraid of her though. I would be too were I nothing more than a wizard with 8 strength. #I do like how you can look at pretty much any two companions and get a well written and generally enjoyable dynamic! #It feels like they considered that a lot of people would want to maybe pair off the companions they didn't romance with each other! #and wanted it to be easy for really any pairing to work... if a person just paid attention to their shared interactions.

[glyphes]

they added new dialogue in astarions origin for when gale talks about the sunrise and his response is so 😭

#bg3 #bloodweave #baldur's gate 3 #gale dekarios #astarion ancunin #vid #vg #im so glad they did bc before i was like uh ok kinda rude why can’t i say anything about that #classic gale… #he’s always running his mouth in a doozy astarion needs to shut him up with a kiss #ouuggghh tho he loves him so much im slurping this new content up #my post

[sauronpilled]

we really need to be a lot more critical to larian and put pressure on them. wyll have been ignored 6 patches deep into the update, and he still lack the variety unlike the other core companions. no new greetings if you romance him, lack of independent choices, etc. don't use "but he lack content :(((" as an excuse to dismiss the disparity both in game and fandom. this will just enable the bias further.

#baldurs gate 3 #bg3 #wyll ravengard #wyll bg3 #wyllposting #larian critical #bg3 critical #fandom critical #idgaf i won't shut up about this until people GET IT.
