#astarion is a high profile lawyer

[weaving-blood]

Gale Dekarios, a 20 something year old is a broke college student. He just got dumped by his long term girlfriend. Along with that he lost his decent paying job, love having your ex gf as your boss.

After losing his job, Gale is struggling to keep up with rent for his tiny apartment and barely scraping by. Being desperate for cash he's about to resort to unsavory means.

Luckily well winding down from a long day of job searching and dead end interviews. Well he was reading the news paper, he finds a job posting too good to be true.

It's a simple pet sitting job offering way more money than his last job.

He mulls over his options for a few days before he caves, he really need the money

He calls the number listed. He's informed he's the only person who's called and that if he'd like the job they'd have to meet. A small meet and greet if you will. Apparently Mr. Ancunin cat is extremely moody and picky with his sitters.

They scheduled a time and Gale still think this is too good to be true. He looks up the address given and his jaw drops, it's in the richer side of the city and he's 100% convinced he's going to get mugged!!

Still being curious he also looks up 'ancunin', however nothing comes up but a few articles about an old crime case that doesn't sound interesting.

A few days later, Gale got ready for the meet and greet, he was a bit miffed, he had to ask his mother for some money, getting to the other side of the city isn't easy and he's not walking the entire way there.

Gale arrives at a grand house, it's beautiful! It has white picket fence and the whole nine yards. Gale showed up early and lingers outside the residents, nosy neighbors poking their heads from door and glancing through their windows really put Gale off from doing what he came to do. After about 15 minutes of pacing he finally knocks on the front door of the house.

He waits and waits and waits until he heard a loud shout and yowling. The door opened and there sat a sphynx cat, in what looks to be an expensive lil sweater.

Gale stares at the cat before hearing grumbling and muffled swears coming closer. A man with silver-white hair and the loveliest grey-blue eyes appears

BG3 headcanons (modern AU)

My brain is full of headcanons and I need to get them out!

Shadowheart: She’s an English teacher. Always advocates for her queer students, who see her as a refuge. Loves sweets and pastries and is always carrying a snack in her backpack. Dyes her hair once a month, different colour every time. Chronically online, Tumblr and Twitter user, has the best taste in memes out of all the gang. Writes poetry and fan fiction. Grew up in a cult and lives with religious trauma, but she goes to therapy and does her very best.

Astarion: He’s a lawyer, of course. Has an impeccable aesthetic in his instagram profile, with a defined palette. Very good taste in clothing. He was physically and emotionally abused by his stepfather when he was a kid and hasn’t really worked through this trauma (Shadowheart always encourages him to go to therapy). Very close friends with Shadowheart.

Minthara: Lawyer, but has specialised in finance and has rapidly climbed the financial ladder via questionable methods. CEO of a major company. Impeccable taste in fashion. Vegan. Has a section in her closet filled with BDSM paraphernalia. Everything she owns is expensive. She’s the daughter of a powerful senator who was very emotionally abusive to her growing up. Staunch defender of capitalism. Wakes up naturally at 5 am. Does yoga and tai chi.

Lae’zel: She’s in the air force, has wanted to be since she was a girl. She’s in the spectrum and has only recently realised. Her special interests are planes and meteorology. Wakes up very early to run 10k. Extremely mindful about her eating, every meal is perfectly balanced for her specific nutritional needs.

Karlach: Non-binary. P.E teacher, works at the same school as Shadowheart and that’s how they met and started dating. Loves large dogs. They are a personal trainer on the side. Loves going to the gym and is very supportive of new people. Friends with Wyll since high school.

Jaheira: Anthropologist, environmental and anti-gentrification activist. Has lived in her neighbourhood forever and hates that it’s getting gentrified. Being a local icon and leader, a few political parties have tried to get her to run for office but she always refuses because she doesn’t trust the establishment. Has been arrested multiple times at demonstrations. She’s so devoted to her activism that she has neglected her children at times. Chain smoker.

Halsin: Environmental lawyer. Has worked in multiple NGOs. Has been to therapy. Single, not for a lack of suitors, but because he wants to find a life partner. Has been a vegetarian for decades. Has a bear tattoo.

Wyll: Entrepreneur. Devoted to The Grind™. Has taken classes on gender politics. Goes to the gym with Karlach and uploads mirror selfies. Has asked Minthara to be his mentor but she keeps refusing. Has also been to therapy.

Gale: Successful academic. Has been going through a terrible divorce with another famous and powerful academic. Excellent cook, makes his own sourdough bread. Likes the finer things in life.

Bonus: My OC, Ramona

Literature major but has no academic ambition whatsoever. She does know a lot about it and runs a literature club for troubled teenagers with Shadowheart.

Was working as a barista when she met Minthara and was immediately enthralled.

Has shared a flat with Shadowheart since uni, and they’re best friends.

She’s easily the funniest one in the gang.

Always manages to get free stuff or discounts just because of how nice and persuasive she is.

Excellent liar (white lies, mostly).

Wears recycled clothing almost exclusively, which Minthara hates.

Everyone hated Minthara when they first started dating but over time, as she changed, they managed to put up with her, even growing fond of her (most of them).

I’ve been trying to write some fics but I can’t seem to find the courage to. I enjoy coming up with headcanons more
