Some ppl gotta remember game mechanics exist and the lack of some poly routes in bg3 is undoubtedly due to the complexity of additional scenes, dialogue and programming flags/checks it would cause

Friendly Rivalry
Oopsie... Astarion and Gale go for drinks, it goes about as well as you'd hope... for @silent-words
Astarion sprawled in a booth at the Elfsong and grinned at the wizard opposite him. Gale narrowed his eyes in good-natured suspicion. ‘What?’
‘Oh, nothing darling. I’m just thinking how unlikely this all is. Gods below, could you imagine if Tav knew about this? She’d have a heart attack, poor thing.’
‘We’re allowed to be friends, Astarion.’
‘Oh, where’s the fun in that.’ Astarion’s mouth quirked. ‘We must get drinks. I’ve never seen you drunk. What’ll it be?’
‘I can get my own,’ said Gale. ‘I’ve never had trouble with that sort of thing.’
Astarion tutted. ‘Hello, darling,’ he said, bringing his attention to the young tiefling bartender. ‘A bloody mary for me, would you please? And… hmm…’ he frowned, trying to sus Gale out. ‘A Cormyr 75.’
‘I prefer wine,’ muttered Gale, ‘but very well.’
‘Live a little.’
Gale frowned. When the barkeep handed over their drinks, he took a sip and then, apparently emboldened, said, ‘I live a lot. Tav comes to my bedroll each night, after all.’
Astarion’s expression changed subtly, no longer the open and big-eyed calm of happiness. Now he looked like a cat seeing an opportunity. ‘Most nights,’ he purred, taking a sip of his drink and licking his lips. ‘But it’s unbecoming to speak of the poor darling when she’s not here.’
‘I’m sure she’ll forgive a slip in decorum given the circumstances,’ said Gale tersely. ‘You’re lucky she’s so sweet or you’d starve. Just because she lets you bite her doesn’t mean she wants you.’
‘Hmm, yes she is very sweet,’ said Astarion, his eyes glittering. He sipped his drink, watching Gale’s barely contained rage. ‘But we’re all friends, of course. It’s not like she’s ever come when I’ve bitten her or anything…’
‘Enough,’ said Gale, holding his glass so tightly he looked like he might crush it. ‘You’re lucky I have the decency to cast silence. She screams for me like you wouldn’t believe.’
‘You’re right,’ drawled the vampire, ‘I don’t believe it.’ He leaned across the table, a lazy fanged smile on his lips. ‘Perhaps I would, if she hadn’t been whimpering so deliciously in my arms last night. Not that it means anything of course. She loves you so much it’s sickening.’
‘Jealous?’ said Gale in a low voice. He sipped his drink, watching.
‘Of course I am. Frankly, she deserves better.’
Gale privately agreed, though he would never tell Astarion that. He finished his drink, ordered two more and downed them. Astarion followed suit, slightly bemused but happy to keep pace with him, until Gale’s eyes widened at something over his shoulder.
‘What?’ he whispered.
‘We need to stop talking about Tav.’
‘Why? It’s surely all in fun, it’s not like she-’
‘Shut up, Astarion.’
Astarion’s nostrils flared in anger, but he peeked subtly behind him and seemed, somehow to go even paler. ‘Oh, no.’
‘Exactly.’
‘We can agree on this,’ Astarion breathed, hissing through his teeth in his urgency, ‘we have to protect her from him.’
‘We need to go.’
‘Agreed.’ They stood up to leave, gathering their things quickly, and were a few steps towards the door, when-
‘Such haste?’ Raphael regarded them with wide, expectant eyes. ‘It’s not like you two not to linger. You look as though you’ve seen something truly terrible.’
‘Not at all,’ said Astarion, spinning on his heel with a bright smile on his face. ‘We’re just a little tipsy, that’s all. Eager to go home to our friends and all that. Sleep off the headache.’
‘Come on,’ said Gale, grabbing Astarion by the wrist. ‘We need to go.’
‘Tav’s been looking for you,’ said the devil smoothly. ‘I daresay she gets bored, all alone. And being unable to leave camp currently, well…’ he flashed a smile.
How the hells did he know about that? Gale thought, his mind racing. She’d been incapacitated in the last fight, and he had insisted she stay in camp for her own safety. She hadn’t listened until Astarion gave her a withering look and said something about her needing enough blood to not die when he fed, thank you very much.
‘She can handle herself,’ said Astarion coolly. ‘She’s hardly some wallflower. Especially not in the face of the likes of you.’
‘I wonder,’ said Raphael, finishing his whiskey, ‘has she been reading my letters?’ As Astarion and Gale both tensed he laughed, waving a hand and disappearing in a haze of red.
‘What the fuck is he talking about?’ growled Astarion.
‘I don’t know,’ said Gale, shaking in anger, ‘but we have to get back. Now.’

Shadows of the Past

Unlike before, time seems to fast forward, seemingly leaping ahead with every blink as Aldous approaches. The dagger quakes in your grip, and chastise your body for being so wimpish.
A golden beam of light splits the tenebrosity, akin to the sun crowning over the horizon at the break of dawn, and you reflexively throw yourself over Astarion to shield him from it. The sheer brightness makes your eyes clamp closed.
When you open them again, darkness shrouds you like a thick cloak, but this darkness is not natural. It’s teeming with the vitality of the Weave. Somewhere, you can hear the metallic clashing of blades. Your fingers curl into Astarion’s armour, terrified that if you let go, you will lose him in this rayless depth.
Your ears twitch as you catch the quick patter of footsteps, and you bring the dagger back up. It’s difficult to discern which direction the sounds are coming from, and your eyes dart around in an attempt to catch any movement.
The slightest flicker of light is all the forewarning you get before a figure breaks through the fog. The dagger is poised and ready to strike when the icy blue aura of healing magic scintillates within the penumbra, and Shadowheart drops down on one knee beside you.
Her hand nearly touches you before you drop the dagger, catch her wrist, and plant her hand on Astarion. The magic bathes him, flowing over his skin like a wave stroking the beach and fading out as it sinks into him.
Shadowheart’s hand searches through the gloom, finding your forearm. She fumbles around, shuffling on her feet until she can see you more clearly, and wraps her arms around you in a gentle, quick hug.
“Is he?” She gestures toward Astarion, trying once more to heal him. 
“I don’t know.”
The spell is dismissed and diminishes within a split second to reveal Gale and Hecat. Gale breathes heavily, his eyes still glowing with the Weave, and Hecat’s sword is still poised in a defensive position. A thick river of blood drips from a wound in her bicep, off her elbow, and to the ground. You scan the area, but Aldous is nowhere to be seen.
“He’s gone, my friend.” Gale confirms with more spite in his voice than you can recall he ever had, even when he was talking about Mystra. “His master must have tugged his leash.”
Gale and Hecat’s eyes sink to Astarion’s body, which still lies at rest in your arms, and you follow their line of sight with your head hung low over him.
“I tried,” you mutter. “He can’t be. He can’t… He…” You trail off, unable to even think of the word, or you’re positive that you will fall apart and never get up.
Hecat’s sword slumps down, the tip burying itself in the ground, and it strikes you that the woman is crying.
“We should go,” Gale says, kneeling and placing his hand on your shoulder gently. “There is no telling when he might return with greater forces.”
“I won’t leave him here,” you choke out between sobs. “I won’t.”
“Nor will I.” Hecat adds with a sombre intonation, her voice shaking.
Her stalwart loyalty to someone she doesn’t truly know strikes you as strange, but in this moment, you’re thankful for it.
“Of course we won’t leave him.” Shadowheart assures, wrapping her arms around you once more.
“He was our friend, too,” Gale weeps, rubbing the tears that are starting to form in the corners of his eyes.
Was our friend.
Was.
“Was your friend?” Astarion coughs hard, his eyes cracking open slightly. “So lovely to know what you’ve written me off already, my friends,” he groans satirically.
Your arms wrap around him, and for whatever reason, you cry harder with the overwhelming relief. Shadowheart’s arms encircle him as well, her tears leaving tracks down her rosy cheeks. Then Gale and Hecat join.
Astarion bemoans it. You worry it’s making him uncomfortable, but when your eyes meet his, there’s a small smile on his face. You think he’s finally realizing that he has people who truly care about him — much more than he thought.
“Let’s get you two back to camp,” Gale says, hooking his arm around Astarion and helping him to his feet. “Dinner should be ready when we return.”
You groan out loud even though you didn’t mean to, and Shadowheart stifles her giggling. “Kamena is quite injured,” she offers as an excuse to Gale.
“Yes, I’m sure that was it.” Gale scoffs.
“Good Gods,” Astarion barks. “Is no one going to tell him?”
“Tell me what?” Gale asks, brows arched curiously.
Astarion, ever truthful, ignores all of your frantically shaking heads and states the truth that everyone else is too nice to say. “They all hate your cooking, Gale.”
Gale shakes his head with a genial laugh and a Cheshire smile. “Oh, I’ve known that for quite some time. Yet they continue to eat it without complaint, too afraid to hurt my feelings. I wanted to see how long it would go on.”
“So, you’ve been feeding us food we don’t like on purpose?” Shadowheart’s eyes are wide, and her expression is stunned.
“Oh-yes,” Gale chuckles.
Tumblr media
You lay with Astarion in the tent, but once he’s deep in his trance, you sneak away to sit by the fire. You’re exhausted, but your mind refuses to oblige your command to trance. It seems the others are in the same predicament, and one by one, Shadowheart comes to join you, then Hecat, and then Gale.
The three of you sit around the fire in silence for a while, each of you contesting with your own inward thoughts on the days events.
“How did you know to come?” You finally ask, staring at your fingers.
“It was Hecat, actually,” Shadowheart answers, and there is a lilt of surprise in her voice. “She said that you had been gone too long, and she was going to look for you.”
“Naturally, we couldn’t leave her to do it on her own,” Gale adds. “So, we joined.”
“And it was a godsdamned good thing we did!” Shadowheart’s voice borders on scolding. “You nearly got yourself killed, Kamena! What the Hells happened?!”
“Aldous happened.” You don’t have the energy to recite the entire story right now.
Hecat? She is the one who prompted them to come to look for you and possibly saved both of you and Astarion’s lives. Guilt sinks into your bones. You have not treated the woman very well. When you glance at her, she shrugs and offers you a warm smile.
Getting up, you awkwardly make your way over to where she sits and wrap your arms around her. “Thank you, Hecat. By the Gods. Thank you.”
“Don’t sweat it, Kamena!” She says warmly. “Did you find what you’re looking for or just trouble?”
“Just trouble.” You sigh and drop back onto the ground, rubbing your tired eyes.
“You seem to be a magnet for it,” Hecat assesses.
“She is.” Shadowheart and Gale confirm unanimously.
They snicker, and you narrow your eyes at the pair. “It was your great misfortunate that I ended up in your prison cell.”
“I would say the opposite.” Hecat retorts, her flame-filled eyes cast to the ground. “I’ve been an outcast most of my life, and friends were a foreign concept to me until I met all of you. I know you don’t like me much, but you still have my gratitude, even if being here has put my life in mortal danger.”
“I…” You trail off while the guilt makes your heart squeeze in your chest. “It’s not that I don’t like you…”
Hecat waves her hand flippantly with a small, sad smile. “You don’t have to lie. I know I say stupid things. I’m aware that I have a hard time filtering my thoughts before speaking and only realize I shouldn’t have said something or worded it differently when it’s much too late.”
You’re usually a master with responses. You can twist letters and syllables into a tidy little package to persuade, intimidate, deceive, or placate at your whim, but your silver tongue stalls, and you cannot think of a response to save your life.
Shadowheart clasps your shoulder, interjecting to rescue you. “You should get some rest.”
You swallow hard, eyes pouring over the little camp. “Aldous might return—”
“Shadowheart and I will stay up to keep watch.” Hecat reassures, grabbing her sword and laying it across her lap to polish. “You look worse than I did when I escaped the Hells. Get some sleep, or whatever you elves do.”
You look to Gale in hopes that he might come to your aid and tell the others that you don’t need babysitting, but his bourbon brown eyes gaze at you with a hint of melancholy you were not expecting to see.
“They are correct, my friend. You require rest. We can regroup after and determine what our next move will be,” he says cajolingly, as if he were trying to persuade a rebellious child.
Being spoken to in such a way makes you cringe, and the voices in your head chant, broken, broken, broken. Much like a wilful youth, your first reaction is to be obstinate, to berate them for treating you in such a way that makes you feel small, but their intentions are good and they are not wrong.
You offer them a curt nod, not trusting your tongue to keep its remarks to itself, and shuffle toward the tent. Once you’re safely inside, you nearly collapse onto the furs and bring your knees to your chest while resting your head on them. How could you possibly sleep when every time you close your eyes you hear the clattering of boots, see the flash of chrome, and hear Astarion tell you he would have liked to marry you?
“So, you fly now?” Astarion’s groggy timbre surprises you, and your head jerks up to see flashes of crimson eyes peeking from behind thick lashes. “You have wings? Literal wings? I am not easily impressed by people, but you are quite a good person to know should I be thrown from a building... again.”
Before you can think better of it, you’re an ungainly mess of arms tangling around his neck with your hands twisting into his hair and grabbing handfuls of the silver-spun silk.
Astarion wraps his arms around you, pressing you into himself with an almost bruising strength. “I’m okay,” he soothes, his fingers stroking your hair. “I’m here.”
“You should be resting,” you murmur, still angling your body so that every part of you is pressed against some part of him.
“I can rest when I’m dead.”
You jerk upwards and glare at him with narrow eyes. “Not. Funny,” you scold in a sotto voice.
He smiles, brushing your hair back and taking your face in his hands. “Come now. It’s a little funny.”
You try to wrangle enough residual anger to chastise him for his ill-timed jokes, but as you just learned, time is a precious commodity. You never know when the last tick of a second marks the end, and you will not spend such a priceless asset on anger.
“You’re insufferable.” It’s a struggle to keep your expression serious.
“Aren’t I just?” He snickers, using his thumbs to pull your lips up in the smile they wish to curl into anyway. It breaks your composure, and you smile, silly and girlish. “There’s my girl.”
He pulls you back down to lay on his chest, curling his fingers into your hair. It’s quiet for a spell as you revel in the embrace you nearly lost.
“When did you learn that?” He asks in a low rumbling voice.
“Learn what?”
He pulls away only a little to arch a brow at you as if you’ve asked an immensely stupid question. “To fly?”
“When I jumped off the tower, I felt a weird feeling, like instinct, and—”
“I’m sorry, but hold that thought for just a moment. What?!” He cuts you off with a snap of cold in his voice. “You didn’t know you could do that before you jumped off the damn tower?”
“Well, no, but—“
“Have you lost your godsdamned mind, Kamena?” You can’t quite make out if it’s anger you hear in his voice, chastisement, or astonishment. Perhaps it’s an amalgamation of all three. “What in the Hells were you thinking? Jumping off like that! What a bloody stupid thing to do!”
His anger is similar to that of when you accidentally dropped a building on him, and although you probably shouldn’t, you’ve always found it humorous.
“Stop giggling!” Astarion scolds with a huff. “Can you not see that I’m angry with you?”
You cover your mouth to try and stifle your ill-timed laughter. “I’m sorry,” you manage to choke out. Clearing your throat, you steel yourself back into some semblance of poise, though you cannot wipe the smile from your face. “Sorry. Of course, I can see you’re angry.”
Astarion’s brows furrow while he searches your face. He rolls his eyes exasperatedly. “You still want to giggle like a merry school girl, don't you?”
You curl your lips inward, pressing them together, and nod.
“Hells below,” Astarion groans, racking a hand over his face. “You’re terrible. You know that?”
You nod again, not trusting your mouth to open lest you continue your undignified and improper laughter.
“Well, what are you waiting for, darling? Astarion tosses the furs back. “Get in here before I drag you in here.”
The red gash and dark bruising around it stand out garishly against the rest of Astarion’s pristine alabaster skin, and you suck in a sharp breath, poising your hands over the wound as if you might be able to heal it through sheer willpower alone.
“I’m fine, love.” He coos, slipping his fingers under your chin and guiding your eyes to his. “I’m fine, thanks to you.”
“You should feed,” you murmur, already pulling your hair away from your neck.
“As much as I do appreciate the offer,” he pokes your bruised forehead to bring attention to the fact that you are wounded as well, making you mouth “ouch” to him silently. “I will have to decline for tonight.”
“Fine,” you concede with a pout. “Tomorrow then. You know you always heal faster when you’re full.”
“Remember that, do you?” Astarion muses with a canted head, wrapping an arm around you as you sidle up next to him. “I’m not sure how much I liked this being known thing. It takes away from my intriguing mysteriousness.”
“Pardon me,” you quip, gesturing to yourself as if scandalized. “Allow me a moment to forget all things vampire so you can continue to bewitch me with your enigmatic charms.”
Astarion shakes his head, smiling boyishly, but it transforms into something more sombre and serious. “You could have died today, Kamena. If you hadn’t been able to fly...” he trails off, shaking his head. “Gods. I dare not think about it. Do not throw your life away so readily for me.”
“Don’t jump off any more buildings, and I won’t have to.”
“Kamena,” he starts with a sigh.
“No!” You shout a little louder than you had meant to, cutting him off and glaring at him with enough intensity to make him swallow thickly. “No.” You repeat more hushed. “I don’t need you to tell me what to do with my life, Astarion. It’s my choice. Do not take that from me. Please.”
Astarion nods, though you can tell he’s a little vexed, and you’ve likely not heard the last of his objections.
“I would also like to point out that I did not jump; I fell.” Astarion huffs dramatically in an attempt to ease the overbearing tension.
You lean in close to him and press a lingering kiss to his cheek. When your lips ghost his ear, Astarion shudders with a breathy whimper, and you whisper, “If I were you, I would go with the jumping story. Falling off a building is incredibly embarrassing, don’t you think?”
“Bloody Hells, darling,” Astarion groans, twisting his head to catch your lips. “Get some rest.”
Tumblr media
Astarion wakes to a familiar smell, though not one he wishes to be reminded of, and a discordance of gruff voices that are trying to stay hushed. He glances at Kamena, who is still pressed up against him with her eyes closed, seemingly deep in her trance. An amalgamation of purple, blue, and yellow bruises extends down her forehead around a laceration that glares at him like he’s the guilty party.
He shifts Kamena slowly and carefully until she lays on the pillow and pulls the fur blankets up around her. She murmurs in her sleep, hands incoherently grasping for him, but soon settles. He tugs on his clothes, grabs his weapons, and marches out of the tent, prepared to see Aldous invading their camp.
When his eyes fall onto Aurelia and Leon, he nearly drops his dagger in numbed shock. Leon, he spent countless years with. The man was always striving to be Cazador’s favourite, and oh, how Astarion loathed it. Looking at Leon now, he pities the poor foul. He appears emaciated, hungry, and covered in filth from head to toe.
Aurelia is in much the same condition. Her clothes are darkly stained from sleeping in the dirt, her red skin appears sallow and wan from hunger, and one of her horns is broken off near her skull.
It’s clear that the Underdark has not been kind to his siblings, but anything is better than living in Cazador’s primitive hell.
Gale, Shadowheart, and Hecat are already speaking to them in low tones, but as soon as Astarion is visible, all eyes snap to him.
“Astarion?” Leon says. “Is it truly you, brother?”
Astarion nearly cringes at being called “brother,” but schools his expression into one of near indifference.
“Leon, Aurelia,” Astarion says levelly. “A pleasure.”
“You have siblings, Astarion?” Hecat asks, and he only nods his affirmation.
“You’re… alive.” Aurelia says almost as if confused. “They haven’t caught you yet.”
“Are you truly surprised, sister?” Leon remarks. “He always was the wiliest out of all of us, to his own determinant. It’s the reason Cazador favoured his pain over ours.”
“Cazador preferred my screams because they were far more becoming than all of your croaking,” Astarion quips to hide his discomfort at the mention of his old master’s preoccupation with him.
His siblings do not know the truth, of course. He may have given up trying to escape, but he instigated Cazador to save the rest of them from his torments. Well, that and because it was dreadful fun to piss him off even if it did get him flayed.
“Why have you come, brother?” Aurelia asks.
“We came looking for you.” He states indifferently. “It seems you may have landed yourself in a spot of trouble.”
“That’s an understatement.” Leon says, glancing at Aurelia. “Someone has been hunting us and the spawn you released. We know not who they are—”
Astarion puts a hand up and shakes his head. “Yes, we are aware of the situation. It appears another vampire lord has caught wind of the Black Mass. They need our scars to complete the contract.”
“Can another vampire lord do that?” Aurelia asks, fear permeating her eyes. “Complete the rite?”
“It makes sense,” Leon sighs, coasting his fingers through his dirty hair. “They’ve been rounding up the feral spawn and our brother’s and sisters.”
“And Cazador was not exactly subtle,” Astarion adds quickly. “When Kamena and I were there, we found correspondence between him and other lords boasting about the power he was about to acquire.”
Leon and Aurelia sigh at the same time, obviously bone-weary and at their wits end. Astarion holds little love for his “siblings.” Cazador called them a family but did not refrain from pitting them against each other to create animosity between their ranks. It’s far safer to pit the spawn against each other over who gets to stay in the lavish, preferred spawn quarters, then run the risk of them conspiring against their master.
Astarion had caught onto that little plan straight away, but his siblings were too embroiled in their competition against one another to give a damn what he said.
Imbeciles.
“Where are the other spawn?” Shadowheart asks. “The feral ones.”
“Gone,” Leon answers immediately. “Those of them that were not killed by the dangers lurking in the Underdark were swiftly rounded up.”
“I told you to take care of them,” Astarion nearly snarls, but he manages to keep most of the animosity from his tone.
“We tried, Astarion!” Aurelia fumes with her fists balling up at her sides. “They were too far gone. Many of them had been starved and rotting down there for centuries!”
A flush of guilt labours through him. He had feared as much when he saw them, but he thought they deserved a chance like he had.
Then again, they did not have someone like Kamena at their side to love them through their bloodlust, pain, and misery.
“I should have killed them,” Astarion states with his eyes cast down at his shoes. “Selfishly, I did not want anymore blood on my hands than I was already drowning in.”
“You couldn’t have known, my friend.” Gale reassured quickly, his expressions sullen.
A placation, at best. Astarion had known. He had been lucky to come back from the year he spent in solitude, starved and alone with only silence and darkness as his company. When he had been released, he had long abandoned the abilities for speech and reason. If it had not been for Cazador’s compulsion, he would have tore through Baldur's Gate like a rabid animal.
“None of us did.” Leon acknowledges and offers Astarion a small smile. “What you did was admirable. It is a shame it turned out this way.”
“So, do you have a plan? Aurelia’s voice is high with anxiety, and her eyes run amok over the land.
Astarion observes her demeanour. She had never been the most courageous of the bunch of them, but this level of restlessness was rare even when Cazador was hunting her through the hallways.
“Find the vampire. Stop the vampire. Kill the vampire.” Astarion drawls in a devil-may-care fashion. “We are workshopping the details as we go.”
“They won’t stop, Astarion.” Aurelia sputters. “We’ve just spent Gods know how long hiding with fish.”
Astarion nearly chuckles. “Ah, the Kuo-Toa, yes? Fascinating creatures, are they not?”
“You could say that,” Leon groans. “So another vampire lord is looking to complete the Black Mass. Where does that leave us?”
“Targets obviously,” Astarion concludes briskly.
“Yes, we get that, Astarion. Thank you.” Leon remarks vexed. It makes Astarion smirk that he’s still able to get under their skin. “But where do we go from here?”
“We’ll take you to our home.” Kamena’s voice is flat, weighed down by the lingering traces of her trance.
All eyes jerk to her as she rubs her eyes and yawns. Kamena winces, and her fingers prod the bruises and cut on her forehead, testing the tenderness. She moves stiffly toward them, and though she manages to hide it well, he can tell she’s still in pain.
How could she not be? She leapt off a fucking building.
For him.
Him.
Try as Astarion might, he cannot fathom why anyone would put themselves in harm's way for him.
“It’s nice to see you again, Kamena.” Leon says with an awkward smile. “I’m happy to see you recovered.”
Kamena smiles politely, but it does not reach her eyes, and she refuses to look at him. He’s still not quite sure what happened down here. All his attempts to get her to open up are met with reluctance. He is trying, in the only way he knows how, and he knows he shouldn’t resent her for the problems he caused partially, but a small part of him does all the same.
She just has it so easy. Kamena can pick and choose when and what to open up about at her whim, but it’s clear that she doesn’t fully trust him. He will admit, he’s made mistakes—more than a few at that, but he has been trying, hasn’t he? He forces himself to open up to her even when it feels like he’s tearing apart his ribs to show her his heart and stitching himself back up.
But his openness is met with reserve, and it hurts him—a constant, blunt ache in his chest where his heart should beat.
In spite of the pain, Astarion sweeps the festering wounds to the wayside once more. What is pain to him anyway? After centuries under Cazador, pain is an old friend, although this pain is new to him.
Physical pain he can handle. It is known. It is predictable. This pain, though, he’s not quite sure how to traverse.
He can see that she is trying. He just wishes it was faster, so that they can luxuriate in the warmth of it for as long as possible before Kamena leaves him alone to forget how to love once again.
“What do you mean, take us to your house?” Aurelia asks uncertainly.
“It’s somewhere you will be safe.” Kamena morphs her tenor into something resembling a summer breeze — soft, warm, and welcome. She must have recognized his sister's unease. “You don’t have to go. The choice remains yours. If you want to stay with the Kuo-Toa, you’re welcome to.”
Astarion is still not very delighted with the idea of having his siblings in his home, using their bed, hunting in his woods, but leaving them here is a worse option.
“Does it have things to eat?” Leon asks hopefully, the pang of starvation in his tone.
He watches his brother and sister carefully. They should be nearly as practiced at controlling their bloodlust as he is, but he would be a fool to trust them completely. That kind of hunger can drive even the sanest souls mad.
“Animals,” Astarion confirms, and gives them both a pointed look. “Only animals. Is that clear?”
Both the spawn nod their acknowledgment.
“Lovely,” Astarion exclaims with terribly mimicked mirth. “Now, do any of you know Prestidigitation by any chance? They smell rank.”
Tumblr media
Astarion and Kamena jog toward the Elfsong, with dawn threatening the horizon. Escorting his siblings to his house had taken longer than they had estimated, and staying the night there was out of the godsdamned question.
“Hurry up, Astarion!” Kamena urges him, placing her hands on his back and pushing him to run quicker. Panic infects her voice like a pathogen. “You can run much quicker than me. Go. I’ll catch up.”
He glances at the sky. They are pushing it close, but there is a little room to be had. Astarion has to choke back a scant chuckle. Kamena is more terrified of the sun touching him than he is, and it baffles him. She has seen the sun touch him on several occasions. It hurts like a bitch, but it’s not a death sentence.
“We’re fine, love.” He tries to reassure, but it’s of little use to calm her. “We’re nearly there.”
Kamena gives him a firm swat on the ass, but her face is adorned with the most ambrosial, angelic smile. “I wasn’t asking, Astarion. Get this very charming ass moving!”
“Well, when you put it that way,” he purrs carnally, and then switches his demeanour on a dime. “It’s still a no, I’m afraid.”
"Corellon, grant me patience,” Kamena groans.
Kamena darts into the Elfsong, pushing the sweaty strands of her hair behind her ears, and placing a bag of coin on the counter. “We need a room for two nights.”
The barkeep meanders over slowly, and Kamena shifts on her feet, her eyes darting to the windows that are beginning to brighten. He remains unconcerned about the sun. His concern is for her. Fear has a musky, sour aroma that numbs his tongue. Then there is terror, and it smells like absinthal, burning metals that numb his entire body.
Kamena smells like terror.
“Sure thing,” The man dumps the bag of coins out onto the counter to count them.
“You can have the whole bag if you tell me the room number right now,” Kamena blurts out.
Astarion’s eyes bulge. That pouch held far more coin than what was necessary for a room. He takes a deep breath to calm himself. No matter. He will just steal it back for her later.
“Room three,” the man says, cupping his hand at the counter's lip and sweeping the excess coin into it.
She grabs him by the wrist and tugs him upstairs. Unfortunately for him, the upper-floor windows are not shielded from the sun by the other buildings, and he has to dodge through it quickly to get across the hallway. A hiss of pain whispers through his lips when the rays dawdle over his arm.
Kamena bursts into the room, pulling all the drapery closed in a rush while he stands off to the side in a shaded corner until the room is cloaked in darkness. She snaps her fingers, and he watches little orbs, like infant suns, float through the air and land on the candle wicks.
She rushes over to him, grabbing his arm gently to get a look at the burn. “Are you okay?”
Astarion glances at the small patch of cracked, matte skin. “It’s a piddling injury, darling.”
Her brows pinch, and her eyes squeeze closed as she takes a deep breath. Astarion cocks his head, trying to read her. Sometimes he finds that he actually misses the worms in their heads that allowed them to link minds.
“Okay. If you’re sure.”
“I am,” he reassures, his hands finding her upper arms and squeezing while his thumbs gently rub. “A little sun is not going to be my end.”
“I know. It’s just…” She trails off, looking askance.
Astarion’s heart feels like it leaps, even though he knows it remains gripped by death. Is she finally going to open up to him? Is she finally going to let him in?
“Nevermind,” she sighs, and his heart stings with yet another dismissal.
They are both tired, dirty, and wounded. Astarion knows this conversation needs to be had, but he cannot bring himself to inflict any further pain right now.
“You forgot the fire, sweetheart.”
Kamena’s fingers snap once more, and the fire crackles and pops, flames gnawing at the kindling. They settle in, each having a bath and shedding the Underdark’s grime.
Kamena towels off and runs a comb through her hair. “Are you tired?”
“No,” he admits. “The last couple of days have been a lot.”
“Good. I’m going to go downstairs and fetch us some wine.” Kamena rummages through their bag, finding a pair of clean trousers and a shirt to toss on. “Any particular vintage I should ask for, snob?”
“Snob!” Astarion huffs false indignation, puffing his chest out. “It is not my fault you lack a refined palate.”
“Says the vampire,” she smirks. “I’ll ask them for their most expensive bottles.”
“It’ll likely still be plonk.”
“Probably, but not to worry. You can make merry with my vintage wine later,” she winks.
Just before she’s about to shut the door, he calls out to her. “Do make sure to get yourself some food as well.”
Kamena pokes her head back in to shoot him a pointed look and sticks her tongue out at him petulantly, shutting the door behind her.
Astarion settles in front of the fire and gets lost in the dance of the leaping flames. What will it take for her to start unwrapping the fragile, broken parts of her and trust that he will hold even the smallest slivers with care? Vulnerability does not come to him easily; not after emotions had been systematically squeezed out of him, but he swallowed his pride, fear, and bitterness for her.
It hadn’t been easy. Giving her access to his heart and having to trust that she would hold it gently had been the most difficult thing he’s ever done. Day after day, he’s placing his heart in her hands, but she’s unable or unwilling to put that same trust in him.
She loves him; he has no doubts about that, but he still feels like he’s swimming in a lake, and she’s standing on the sidelines, picking and choosing when to dip her toes in. Is that what their relationship has been reduced to?
He was her sanctuary once, where she ran to find peace when the pandemonium of their tribulation got a little too loud. Now she retreats. Less often these days, but still often enough for it to pain him.
What else can he do?
The creak of the door breaks him from his rumination, and he blinks, his eyes dry from staring off into the void of his mind. Kamena uncorks a bottle and sits with him. To his great delight, she carries a plate of food, which she nibbles on slowly. They speak idly about nothing in particular, passing the wine back and forth between them. A permanent blush stains her cheeks pink from the wine, and Astarion drinks in sight of her with a tipsy grin.
“Do you remember...” Astarion stops, trying to recall the name, and takes another sip of wine. “Gods. What was his name? Ah, yes! Kar’niss.”
Kamena visibly shudders. “The Drider? Gods. Why would you bring that up, Astarion?” She giggles unreserved. “I still have nightmares about him.”
“You threw the Lyre at him as soon as he popped up from the shadows, and do you remember what you did, darling?”
Kamena snorts out a small laugh. “I ran behind you. You make a very good shield.”
“Ran? Darling,” Astarion chuckles, shaking his head, “you yelped, scrambled behind me all flailing limbs, and forced me to talk to the damn abomination!”
She shrugs. “It was time you started pulling your damn weight!”
“All the locks I picked and traps I stopped you from barrelling into were not enough? You would have blown yourself up in that godsdamned ruined temple had I not been there to stop you from pressing buttons and walking over pressure plates.”
“My morally questionable, very pale hero!” She simpers and giggles delightfully.
“Don’t forget beautiful,” he quips.
Kamena places her wine down and approaches him. He grabs her waist and pulls her into his lap to straddle him.
“My morally questionable, very pale, devastatingly beautiful hero,” she amends, kissing his face between every word. He gathers her hair, sweeping it away from her neck to press unhurried kisses down the column. His fingers ruck up the hem of her shirt, and she takes it off, throwing it off to the side unceremoniously. Astarion takes a moment to take her in, his hand cradling her face and his thumb stroking her cheek. He dips his head to catch her lips. Astarion groans with the heat of her breath in his mouth, and he allows himself to get lost in his love for her.
Kamena undoes the buttons of his chemise with clumsy fingers. Once it’s undone, she smooths her hands with her palms slightly heated from her magic up his abdomen and chest, leaving a trail of heat in their wake, almost as if the sun’s rays were warming him.
His cock is already throbbing. “I want to lead,” he says huskily. “Like we used to.”
If he can get her to trust him in this, maybe, just maybe, she can start to trust him outside of intimacy. She requested he stop being so gentle with her, and maybe that is part of the problem. He’s too gentle, too affable, too meek, scared that one wrong move will send her spiralling — running.
It’s a long shot, but he’s running out of ideas. It does idly cross his mind if this is a manipulation tactic, but he doesn’t mean it to be so. He just needs to gain her trust, and this is as good a place as any to start.
There’s a small flicker of uncertainty before she nods. “Okay. You lead.”
“Do you remember what word you use if you need to stop?”
“…Astarion,” she says warily.
“I shan’t push too far, my love.” He comforts, lowering his voice into warmed honey so that its timbre sticks to her skin. “And you have only but to say the word if you want to stop.”
The look of wariness slowly ebbs and is replaced with determination. “Orchid.”
“Correct. Good girl.” Astarion pats her leg, picking at her trousers. “Stand and take these off.”
While she does that, he slips out of his pants, his cock finally relieved of that too tight hug of his leather trousers. He settles back on the chair, legs spread wide, and grabs her hips.
“Come.” He turns her around. “Sit. Yes. Like that.”
Kamena settles herself on his lap, her back pressed against his chest. His cock is stiff and yearning against her heated sex, and it takes him considerable effort to thwart the temptation to sink into her.
Astarion draws her in close, wrapping his arm around her waist and kissing down the back of her neck to the base of her spine. He settles his chin on her shoulder, making sure to position himself in a way that he can see down her body, and his breath fans her ear.
He trails the backs of his fingers down, lightly brushing them against the hardened peaks of her nipples, and she sucks in a sharp breath at the stimulation. He proceeds and feels her tremble in anticipation, but he stops short and traces his fingertips featherlight around her belly.
“Tell me what you want me to do,” he whispers into her ear. “Tell me exactly what you want, when you want it, how you want it. Where. Harder. Faster. Slower. Tell me everything.”
Kamena leans back into him. “I thought you wanted to lead?”
“I am. Just not in the way you were expecting.” He grins mischievously. “I await my instructions, my dear.”
“Touch me,” she mutters under her breath.
“Where?” Astarion plays stupid, bringing his finger to rest on the tip of her nose. “Here?”
She laughs, grabbing his hand and placing it exactly where she wants it. Her clit pulses against his fingertips.
“Okay, now what?” He asks.
“Play with my clit, gently at first.” Kamena’s legs jitter when he starts swirling circles around the border, and to his delight, she gets a little more brazen. “Faster with more pressure.”
Her cheek presses into him, her back arching, and she whimpers. Astarion slides his fingers down, parting her folds, spreading her open for him to admire.
“So wet for me, aren’t you, my sweet?” He nips her ear, a graze of his fang along it, and then he sucks gently. Kamena whimpers, and her fingers grasp any part of him available as her hips buck. “So needy.”
“Fuck.” She groans. “Fuck me with your fingers.”
A low, delighted growl rumbles in Astarion’s chest. There is his Kamena, unashamed to tell him exactly what she wants from him. His fingers skate around her entrance, veiling them in her silky desire, before he pushes his cock to the side slightly and slips them in. He starts slow, dipping in and out in the smallest increments to tease out her pleasure.
“Open your eyes, love.” Astarion instructs smooth as velvet. “Watch me fuck your pretty little pussy. You look positively divine with my fingers inside you.”
He smirks when he sees her face flush red, with an amalgamation of desire and embarrassment. Though she likes it, Kamena does not have much experience with vulgar dirty talk, despite the fact that he’s heard some downright obscene things drop off her tongue.
With his fingers sliding against his shaft on every pump, groans escape him unbidden. Kamena clenches around his fingers at the sound, answering him with whimpers. The fact that Kamena is aroused further by the sound of his need exhilarates him.
“My clit,” she pants with her eyes anchored on his fingers. “You can do both at the same damn time. Don’t be so lazy.”
He growls into her ear approvingly. “As you wish.”
His thumb presses against her clit, sweeping across in a regular rhythm, and her hips jerk and roll thoughtlessly. He increases his pace, driving his fingers deep and fast, curling them up with every pass. Kamena’s fingernails dig into the meat of his thighs as she gasps and jerks, sweat starting to coat both of their bodies.
Precum dribbles from his cock, and his hips start to buck involuntarily as it begs him for the attention he so desperately craves.
“A- Gods! Astarion,” she sputters. “Fuck me. Please. Fuck me.”
He would have liked to make her cum like this, but he cannot deny that he much prefers to feel her walls spasming around his cock, begging him to fill her with his spend.
“Lean in me,” he barks, and she relaxes into him straight away. He hooks his forearms under her knees, spreading her wider for him. “A hand, if you would be so kind, love.”
Kamena grasps his cock, swirling her thumb over his precum soaked tip and giving it a slow stroke before she aligns him at her entrance.
“Hard or soft tonight?”
“Bite me and fuck me hard,” she growls at him, sweeping her hair to the side and exposing her neck.
A shot of pure, unmitigated desire shoots straight through him at the words, and he buries himself to the hilt with one smooth snap of his hips. His eyes fall shut, revelling in the sensation of being sheathed in her — so tight, so wet, so warm, so perfect.
Astarion opens his eyes, watching himself pull out almost all the way and slamming back into her again and again.
He kisses her neck, moaning against her. “Gods above. You look magnificent on my cock. Do you like to watch me fuck you, Kamena?”
A desperate whine comes from her. “Gods, yes.”
“Good girl,” he purrs. “Play with your clit.”
Kamena’s hand reaches down shakily, skimming across her tender flesh. Astarion moans once more at the divine sight before he bites, quick and accurate, knowing exactly where and how to illicit the correct response. His fangs sink into her tender flesh, and her blood surges into his mouth.
His eyes roll back as the sanguine nectar skips across his tongue. If heaven has a taste, he’s positive that this is it. Astarion centres his attention on the push and pull of her walls, the ridges dragging against his hard length.
He can feel every squeeze of that slick, warm grip sending him reeling into mind-numbing pleasure. Kamena’s hips undulate in time to meet his hard thrusts, her fingers working her clit at a frantic pace.
Astarion drives into her, harder and deeper, making her take all of him with every thrust. Kamena whimpers and moans his name in an almost prayer-like chant, and every time it sends another wave of affection coursing through him.
She cries out, her cunt spasming and clamping down on him. The tightness, the way her walls squeeze him, makes it too hard for him to stave off his orgasm. He has to withdraw his fangs from her neck when he comes, the pleasure so intense that his toes curl and a sonorous whine erupts from his throat.
Astarion’s fingers dig into the meat of her thighs, holding on for dear life. His hips stutter, dipping his cock into her again and again and again, coaxing out every bit of his release and flooding her. His being narrows down into nothing but an impossibly compressed point of white-hot bliss as his hips buck, riding out his own shockwaves until they finally abate.
Kamena sags into him once he unhooks his arms from her legs and lets them relax. He presses a kiss to her temple, burying his nose in her hair with his own satisfied sigh.
“We might have ruined this chair.” Kamena shifts to look down at the evidence of their enjoyment. “We definitely ruined this chair.”
Astarion barks out an abrupt laugh in response. “Possibly,” he concurs with a rakish grin. “To Hells with them. You gave them enough bloody coin to furnish this room twice over.”
She turns to face him, draping herself over him with her arms around his neck. “You’re just going to steal it back for me anyhow.”
He grins at that, his chest feeling lighter. It feels good to be seen, known. “You know me too well.”
Kamena rests her head in the crook of his neck, her eyelashes fluttering against his skin as her eyes fall shut. “That was... fun. We haven’t done that in a while. You are okay?”
A typical question after they make love, but he finds it hard to answer this time. It’s not the physical intimacy that troubles him, but her lack of emotional intimacy is another matter entirely.
“Yes, my love,” he purrs. There will be a time and place for that discussion, but this isn’t it. “I’m fine. I would tell you if I wasn’t. Shall we clean up and go to bed? We have a long night ahead of us.”
She leans back, quirking her brow at him. “A long night?”
“Oh yes,” he smiles cunningly. “I believe I owe you a hot date, and I intend to deliver before we leave the city.”

This is not a headcanon. It's true. Astarion cannot eat neatly. I'll give him a rag.

Hello!! Is it okay if I request Astarion and Shadowheart with dark urge reader ට ̫ට ;just like what they think of them and stuff!! Feel free to ignore!! ( ・`ω・´)✨
Tumblr media
Dark Urge-BG3
Hello!! Thank you sm for requesting! You have officially become my first Baldurs Gate request 🤭 I was actually wanting to write something like this, so if anyone wants a part 2 with other characters I’m very happy to respond!
Before reading: Angst(if you squint)/comfort, Mentions of blood and death (It’s dark urge, so…), Astarion x reader, Shadowheart x reader (separate)
Astarion:
Tumblr media
Probably the most understanding of all of the companions
He knows what it’s like, to have a hunger for bloodshed, and to be forced to take lives without your own will
Depending on how you fair, his reaction to your unwilling murders and bloodlust will change
If you wish to embrace this curse of yours, he’s right beside you, desperate to become the most merciful and powerful couple in all of Faerun
But if you wish to resist it, he’s there every step of the way
He cannot help but pity you, seeing his own fears and years of being controlled in your eyes
You find he’s one of the only people able to calm your killing frenzies and unconscious killings
He’s more than willing to stay up all night, watching your form, making sure you don’t act off when the others are asleep
He knows you’re more than this, he knows you are more than your desire to kill
So no matter what you say or choose to do,
he’s going to continue supporting you
Shadowheart:
Tumblr media
As much as I adore Shadowheart
Miss maam is definitely not as understand as Astarion would be
At least, not at first
Perhaps I’m being a bit too harsh, because she definitely understands the urge to kill
The urge for revenge on those who have wronged you
So when it comes to that, she cannot help but support you
Like I said, at first she becomes extremely cautious around you,
She finds herself struggling to sleep in your company, the idea of you awaking and unknowingly slaughtering her or someone else haunting her
But when she sees your sadness around the situation, your yearning to be rid of this bloodthirsty curse
She pities you, and she wishes she could do something to help you
So she swears upon herself and her goddess that she shall work with you to find the cure for this curse
That she shall forever stay by your side, no matter the cost
Even if it takes her life away
Tumblr media
Thanks for reading!!

HALP.
My lovely Baldurs gate peeps. I need you to answer me something.
So in my recent replays of the game I never seem to trigger stations simple plan speech. It is always the you are a complication I never saw. Speech. The one where he says thank you after telling that drow he is his own person.
Now I think it’s down to 2 things. When I do the shadow cursed lands I always go to the house of healing first (for the lute) and I kill malis. Then I do the bar and then the roll collector. After that I go to the mausoleum to prompt Raphael’s cut scene regarding the orthon. Then o do not go in.
I infiltrate moonrise. Do everything in them. Saving the prisoners the very last thing before I leave. Then I take the boat to last light with them and then long rest. Which prompts the thank you scene with our favourite vampire.
I will then speak to gallon and do the shadow not cursed thingy then finally move into general thos tomb and do all the lady shad stuffs Orthon Included.
Now my question is. Should I kill the orthon first when I originally prompt Raphael’s cut scene. Then leave the mausoleum once Yurgir is dead and then do everything else?
Or has that simple plan cut scene just been written over because my approval rating with Astarion is always exceptional by this point?
Please can someone clarify this. Because o do like that nice simple plan/can we talk scene.
@roguishcat @shewhowas39 @slothquisitor @loquaciousquark @asweetlovesong
Any help would be grateful.
