I like drawing hands on my pieces, this is something that I (hope) is something that carries across in my art in general, but when I'm drawing astarion and emyr I really think about where I'm putting their hands.

emyr and astarion don't have sex. this feels like a very natural part of their relationship to me. and personally the idea that sex is the ONLY intimacy that can exist in a relationship, or that it is something that "solidifies" a relationship / makes it "official " feels really... silly.

I really love drawing emyr and astarion because of the hand placements. when I'm drawing them, I'm imagining this like really deep trust between them - emyr touches astarions chest, astarion touches emyrs neck - - there is this understanding and security they both have that emyr will not ask astarion for sex. just, point blank. and that means there's like this atmosphere of "oh, okay, I can experience this kind of closeness or cuddling or human touch with an understanding thst nothing else is coming".

this is just my opinion and I wanted to share! but I just had thoughts about them, and I know it's a big topic right now with ascended/non-ascended astarion. play the game how you want, but I hope when you see my art of astarion and his bf, you can see the intimacy and love there and know that they both have a healthy and happy relationship without having sex with each other

[forystr]

Can we get screenshots of your BG3 player characters pwease

EEEEE yes! i have loads of tavs because i love the character creator but the main ones in play right now are:

some emyr close ups... he was my first play through! a half-drow oathbreaker paladin/fighter

my partner and i are currently playing through as eris! she's a light domain cleric of selune, and emyrs younger half sibling!

and my gale romance, oleander....wood elf monk who's just a cat personified !

I wish I could do comics because oh I wanna do a comic abt astarion and emyr navigating intimacy together!!!! either a pre cazador scene where they're discussing boundaries (now there is emotion involved I don't know if I can do this and feel safe enough to say so) OR a post cazador scene with Astarion wanting to try again but understanding that getting closure on one aspect of trauma doesn't negate it as a whole and somethings aren't as simple as that

or something
