#Halsin thoughts

[carmsgarms]

I just can't get Halsins confession scene out of my head. The way his voice is so quiet and soothing, the sound of the crickets in the background, his big eyes round and full of fear but he's pushing through it because tav is worth it.

He's travelled everywhere and seen things it would take lifetimes for other people to see but you - you helped him find himself again. A third (or more) of his life has been spent dealing with politics and curses, defending nature and currying favor with Silvanus to protect his childhood friend - you're the first person who truly gave him the freedom he wanted, you're the one who helps him find a purpose after *350 years* of wandering and dealing with other people's problems.

And he is *terrified* of fucking this up. Every word he speaks has been practiced carefully, recited, every angle considered, he is upfront, honest, and forward.

Halsin isn't a risk taker, he has a history of waiting for things to happen, biding his time until the right moment. It's how he wound up in captivity for 3 years, got captured by goblins (likely also planning on biding his time until the right opportunity) because he doesn't really feel time moving the way others do. What's a few months or years of captivity?

Until he meets you. You're a risk he's willing to take. He doesn't want to wait anymore. He wants to know now if he can dare ask for more. You have quite literally changed his life and turned it upside down, and for the first time in literal centuries, he can make choices for himself and this is the choice he wants to make.

He doesn't fall in love easily but he has fallen and he's fallen HARD

i want jealous Halsin

this man's whole world gets flipped when you help him. he can live again, he's worry free. he's attracted to you at first, but if you help with his childhood-fey-friend, he falls hard for you.

give me oak daddy breaking the gifts others gave you, he'll play coy like he doesn't know how that happened. he spoils you with the ones he made. he wants to see you light up over his gifts only.

give me oak daddy who throws things around because you smell like someone else. he obsesses over you liking anyone else, he wants to be your world. he craves the attention you give him, please don't share yourself with others. he mounts you a little too rough that night, his heart torn that you might love another.

give me oak daddy who got a little too rough with anyone touching you. he loves nature, not people and he's not afraid to hurt someone. if he sees anyone get a little too close, a little too comfortable? run. he shows his aggressive side in front of you and of course you're the only one who can calm him.

he would plead on his knees for your forgiveness. please don't see him as anything but the loving archdruid you fell for. he can't take losing you because you saved him.

U ever just think about Halsin's slutty little waist

[girlwithadragonheart]

I think if Halsin called me perfect and beautiful I would have no choice but to believe him

[violet-starlings-blog]

When I was little, like 3, and I was on a walk with my mom, and people were coming she would put her hand behind her open and close her hand and say “be little ducks” so that me and my brother would hold hands and walk behind her.

Halsin likes ducks.

I think about that a lot.

[waterdeep-weavemoss]

you know. on reflection, halsin is great, right. he's a champion for the downtrodden, he's kind, etc. i have romanced him once. his kiss animations are very cute. and i keep waiting to think 'damn he's really attractive actually' and i just don't. idk what it is. his voice is the best thing about him (thanks dave you legend.) idk. i can take him or leave him i guess.

Bro… look… I have a thing about Forget-Me-Nots, and they are also something I associate with Halsin. So… now I can’t stop thinking about my Druid/Bard Tav Alice, stopping and picking wildflowers and giving them to different companions, and then she finds those Forget-Me-Nots and gives them to Halsin because 1.) they’re pretty and 2.) she just thinks Halsin would like Forget-Me-Nots. Like she gives him the flowers and he smiles at her and like maybe ten minutes later she looks at him again and she sees he put the flowers in one of his little braids and she gets a little blushy and it’s so cute in my brain 😭😭

Halsin when Mizora says Wylls pact will be broken in 6 months: eh that's not that long 🤷‍♀️

Halsin when he hasn't seen you in six months: these past six months have seemed ENDLESS without you

In all seriousness, it genuinely just breaks me that Halsin doesn't really perceive or feel time because he's a very long-lived race. 6 months passes by in a blink for him. Until he makes friends and falls in love, of course.

It's just got me thinking about the loneliness of trauma and how responsibilities, taking care of others, being laser-focused on a goal he might never meet, has probably passed his time faster than he would have liked.

Being in survival mode for so long I have to wonder how much time Halsin spends just decompressing after the events of the game. It's also made me think that maybe the first act he's so distant because it's the first time in a century he has hope and doesn't have the grove to worry about, the poor man is just Processing everything.

Anyway I'm just having feelings about this. Idk if this is anything.

I know you’re really into Veilguard right now but do you have any headcanons for how Halsin would be with a teenager or young adult person he took under his wing?

Hi Anon! Sorry I didn't have time to get around to this as fast as I wanted to!

I know Halsin would take anyone in who needed someone or needed a home. He's just that kind of person. I know a couple people like that in real life, my mom being one of them.

When Halsin first takes you in, you're dealing with a lot, and you want to be grateful, really, but everything is so hard and it's so loud, and he's doing his best to just make you comfortable but it's all too much. He's very understanding of course, he doesn't expect you to be just fine the minute you're away from everything.

That being said, he makes sure you have your own space where you can make it yours and be comfortable if you want to be alone. He gives you free reign so long as you're not hurting anyone.

Whatever you brought with you, you make that space yours putting your things around the room and putting your clothes away. Halsin offers to help you with your clothes and things because he doesn't want you to be overwhelmed. It's up to you whether to accept it or not.

Halsin talks to you about your favorite foods and then goes out to get the right ingredients to make them for you.

You might be struggling a lot or a little and you might eventually open up to him in a way, showing the way you're really feeling, whether that's through anger or sadness, or just plain depression.

Halsin has battled all these feelings in his long life, and there's no one better equipped to handle them with you than he is. Bro has the coping skills of three different centuries

What are your favorite things? He'll make sure you have access to them.

Homemade gifts. He'll carve things for you, including little figures, but also maybe a bow. He'll teach you to hunt properly and do the things your parents neglected to teach you. He doesn't want to think about what happens when he's not there, but he also wants to know you'll be capable when that day comes.

*the gang steps into baldur’s gate*

halsin: they’re making people pay for flowers?? for fruit?? things that silvanus gave to us for free?!

astarion: omg why are you yelling at me? i didnt make the system

astarion: wait

[carmsgarms]

I genuinely DO NOT understand what there is to dislike about him.

If this man was real I'd worship the ground he walked on

Maybe it's just my proximity to middle age, but for my money, Halsin is the most attractive romanceable character in BG3 by a mile. He's kind. He's courteous. He takes responsibility for his mistakes and undertakes to fix them without roping you into a bunch of drama about it and then goes on to help you save the world just because he likes you. He's a leader with a healthy ambivalence about leadership. He's effectively an eco-socialist with deep and abiding convictions about the treatment of the underprivileged, especially children. He is passionately romantic about you while also decrying the constraints and jealousies compulsory monogamy. AND he's built like a brick shithouse and will fuck your brains out. I'm just not seeing what's not to love about this man.

[daichouno]

Theres good reason Halsin never got Tadpoled

[carmsgarms]

I fucking HATE the Facebook girlies sometimes.

Ripped this from the comments of a post in a Gortash simp group that was talking about which of them smelled better/worse

The amount of people who think he's creepy TRULY confuses me. Like where do you get this from, who hurt you????

He's an autistic man who loves animals and nature and has a soft spot for orphaned children????? If you romance him, he is the most loving, comforting, and supportive character in the game and is ALL ABOUT CONSENT????? And you think he's A CREEPY PREDATOR????

[daughter-lilith]

When you ask him for a kiss, one of his lines is "I live to serve" like it can't get any clearer!

I feel like a lot of Halsin smut makes him too serious. Halsin isn’t a daddy dom, that’s a man who makes the worst puns imaginable while his dick is inside u. silly dom
