#Been feeling bad mentally- Needed this tbh

[smiledtothedog]

Some of you don’t want to hear this but Mathias hasn’t always been uwu baby protect at all costs 🥹, in seasons 1 and 2 he actually did some heinous shit just like every other character in this show, because that’s the point. They’re teenagers and they’re imperfect and they fuck stuff up. I’m not really vibing with the collective forgetting of everything Mathias did to Sara in regards to outing her mental illness/breakdown and literal stint in a psych ward to the whole town, basically, out of spite and without her consent, and then never apologizing or taking accountability for that. The fact that she was able to forgive him for that without any sort of apology is kind of a miracle tbh. Anyway the fact that we now see Mathias in a different light and feel the need to *gently hold* is a testament to character development and seeing him as a whole person with his own serious issues that are worthy of attention, and I think some other characters deserve that same grace.

The point being that no matter how bad you think Erik and Olivia sleeping together is, that doesn’t mean that either of those characters are going to be completely irredeemable because of it.

tl;dr none of these characters are supposed to be fully “good” or “bad” they’re just human teenagers except Felix, he fully sucks and can go die in a hole

Hey I loved loved loved your fanfiction as I’m sure everyone here did but now I, going through withdrawals I can’t find anything similar or as good as yours. So I’m curious what your favourite bg3 fanfiction are?

Hey there!! Awww, thank you ☺️ I sort of got super focused on writing PS for a while there, so I can't say I know of all The GreatsTM in this fandom. I will share what I have enjoyed/am currently reading though (almost all of it involving Astarion), but anyone else should feel free to add your favs in the comments!!

As always, please check tags and read at your own discretion!

Finished ones I've enjoyed:

Seducere by Tlon ~ Astarion/nb!Tav ~ Astarion doesn’t need a reflection to know himself – two hundred years of servitude has shown him exactly what he’s good for. Odd that his new partner seems to disagree.

Nothing is safe by foxflowering ~ Wyll/Astarion ~ "Wyll's the sort of prince-type I would have once dreamed of marrying. When I was about thirteen."

Carving through the dark by skitter ~ Astarion/f!Tav ~ Wren and Astarion descend into the Underdark in search of a new purpose, and learn a few things along the way. Namely, that healing isn't linear and sometimes love takes the long way round.

Astarion Origin Party Nonsense by starkraving ~ Astarion/Karlach; Astarion/Cazador, sort of Astarion/Wyll? ~ A collection of things that ostensibly happen in the same little mental universe. Loosely based on the events of an Origin Astarion run and the various questions it inspired. (All but one in the series is finished so I'm counting it, lol!)

All Our Missing Parts by Viraaja ~ Astarion/Halsin ~ Halsin discovers Astarion was turned before his maturity and all the sacred elven rites that come along with it. Including the sex one.

Friday Nights by SadinaSaphrite ~ Astarion/Gale ~ Professor Gale Dakarios loses his research, his magic, and his lover Mystra all at once and only has himself to blame. When he goes to drown his sorrows, he meets a pale stranger with mysteries of his own.

visions of your love by LargeOctahedron, notyournoise ~ Shadowheart/f!Tav ~ Shadowheart is tired of doubting - of feeling her heart twist whenever she looks at Tav without knowing whether they feel the same. One night, tired of sitting and hoping Tav will approach, she tries to read their mind, only to find them in a rather compromising position.

WIPs I'm following:

Palmarosa by thespectaclesofthor ~ Astarion/Raphael ~ Astarion is stuck in the darkness once more, yearning for sunlight with every fibre of his being, while bitterly reflecting on all the things that were denied to him. Raphael knows Astarion's desperate, and comes to him with not one, but two horrid contract offers that Astarion loathes and dreads in equal measure - but the prize at the end of both are too good to turn down.

To Defy the Gods by ~ Shadowheart/Tav ~ Dark Justiciar. Mother Superior. Shar's Voice Made Flesh. Her Chosen. Shadowheart had emptied her heart of falsehoods, of the illusion of life and love, and accepted the inevitability of loss. Almost.

A Dog's Retreat by ~ Halsin & Astarion, past Astarion/Cazador ~ For most, it was just the end of the Absolute. For Astarion, it was the end of two hundred years of agony. And the transition is steep and slippery. Now, all he can do is hope that there are enough pieces of him left for him to pick up and somehow put back together. Too bad hope has never been Astarion’s poison of choice.

A Warm House, A Ruddy Fire by DepravedJJJSchmidt ~ trans!Astarion/Cazador, trans!Astarion/m!Tav ~ Mr. and Mrs. Cazador Szarr have an ideal marriage. Astarion doesn't know if he will be able to survive another year of it. (And I don't know if I'll survive another chapter tbh, but like a burning building I can't look away 😬)

Alright, that's all I can think of! I'm a bit distracted all over again thanks to the original novel I'm working on now, but hopefully you find something new on this list you end up enjoying 🩵 this fandom is full of so many talented people!!

Motivated~

ships: Adam Sackler x Kaden Reese Words: 520 (v. small, I needed a pick me no pun intended! ehehe) cw: non-detailed suggestive joke.

Summary: Kaden is proud and so is Sackler!

Notes: Not a part of the chronological storyline~ an in between the fics type of drabble so read away! <3

A thin sheen of sweat crossed their forehead, the stray strands of their bangs stuck to their face as their chest heaved heavily up and down, uneven and trembling, their calves and thighs burning as they wobbled into the apartment. They plopped down onto the couch, their breath loud and heavy as their eyes closed, focused on steadying their breath.

Their relaxation on the couch, however, was cut short when Adam waltzed in and with ease swooped Kaden up into his arms, causing them to let out a loud breathless yelp to which Adam only responded with a cheeky grin and soft chuckle.

"Put me down!!" Kaden protested "I'm all sticky and sweaty and gross!!"

"I like you sticky and sweaty though~" Adam grinned with a wink.

Kaden's expression went flat as they dead stared at him, playfully slapping his shoulder. "You're disgusting-" They finally broke into a small giggle.

"How many today?" He hummed, setting Kaden back down onto their feet.

"six and a half" Kaden smiled triumphantly.

Every morning Kaden decides to skip out on the elevator ride and take the trek up the starwell. Kaden decided a few weeks ago that every morning they would walk up nine flights of stairs. The first day was horrible, Kaden couldn't even get up three without having to keel over and rapidly catch their breath, every day they got a little better and better and now they could walk up six and a half stairs before needing to stop and catch their breath. Kaden's legs always burned afterwards but it was a good thing, or at least that's what Kaden thinks, feeling the burn!

"Great job babe! you'll have all nine concurred in no time at all~!" Adam smiled, leaning down to press a soft peck to their lips.

That was one thing Kaden absolutely adored about Sackler, no matter what Kaden decided to do he was always supportive of whatever they did. Kaden has been wanting to find ways to work out that wouldn't make them feel self-conscious, gyms were out of the question, the whole culture with gyms was very off-putting, not to mention the cost was always high, there were plenty of ways for Kaden to get their heart rate up without having to feel like they were standing under a microscope and Adam was all for it! Yeah- he did crack a few suggestive jokes here and there about fun ways to get the heart rate up…

"No, I need to show-AHH" Kaden hollered as Adam once again effortlessly picked up Kaden, swooping them up from the back of their knee. "Adam Sackler you put me down right now!!!!" Kaden squirmed, the tone in their voice authoritative but also had a hint of playfulness in it but he kept his grip firm.

"What!? I'm heeelllpiiiing~" He grinned. "Don't your legs hurt and feel like jelly? I'll take you to the shower. I need to shower too!"

"It's literally 3 feet away from us-"

"Well it's 3 fewer feet you have to walk~ Just accept your fate, I'm carrying you, babe."

Kaden let out a sigh of defeat. Despite their protests, they did like all the attention and praise they received after each little workout they did in the morning. They were actually thankful to Adam. He inspired them and motivated them, not that they would say it out loud- wouldn't want his head inflating too much~

EMPATHY GLAMORIZATION IS NOT ABOUT EMPATHY BUT SUPERIORITY TORWARDS APATHETIC PEOPLE BIGOTRY TORWARDS THEM TYPICAL BIGOT EVIL. SIMPLE AS THAT. IF YOU SEE THEM AS LEFTIST YOU'RE NO LEFTIST YOURSELF. HORRIBLE. THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE ONLY EMPATHY AND BAD TO THINK EVERYTHING YOU DO IS SUCH ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE CLEARLY BEING APATHETIC IF ANYTHING WHEN THEY DO THIS...

COMES TO SHOW BIGOTRY TORWARDS CRAZY AND DISABLED PEOPLE ASWELL AS PARAPHILIA PEOPLE ISN'T TAKEN AT ALL THE SAME AS SEXISM RACISM AND QUEERPHOBIA... OR PERHAPS... LIKELY... THEY ARE ALL THE BIGOTED THINGS EVIL AND TAKE NONE THAT SERIOUSLY... BELITTLING DOWN THEIR PAIN AND DAMAGE...

The childhood magical race of people with wings I made up after the first time I watched Osmosis Jones were called Margins (exactly like the margins of a book) and it took me way too long to remember that but I didn’t feel particularly sad because I self-imposed a rule basically from the start that said you can’t be one after you turn 18 (because you’re not a kid anymore) so I’ve basically already mourned the death of the concept.

They were just a magical race of mostly girls who would go into worlds (books and shows) and fix the bad things that happened to people or just be friends with them without telling them they were Margins. It’s no surprise that I write fanfiction now. Honestly, I should have seen that coming.

The planet you had to portal to was called Domino and only one city was in the bubble of habitability because some Margin (maybe me? I don’t think I ever decided.) destroyed the place in a big damn magic burst and now nothing grows there. I think maybe sometimes we had to fight off black vines or something but I can’t be sure.

There was also a preliminary period before you became a Margin where you were just a fairy/pixie and had to use a wand. But I got really bored with that quickly cause it was just magic school for rules I was making up so I just made it part of my character lore that I had been too strong for wands and they exploded whenever I tried to use them.

Also my mentor figure was the statue of Zeus from Disney’s Hercules and Domino was somewhere near Mars because I decided Martians were cool and wanted to be their friend thanks to that one Tom and Jerry movie.
