isadora visits her father's grave, despite the fact that she told herself she'd never set foot within neverwinter again, because she's not really sure what else to do in the wake of learning he died. the dirt is still freshly-churned, his body barley cooled six feet under - she missed the funeral by two days. astarion goes with her, because of course he does, wrapped head-to-toe in armour to save his skin from crumbling to dust under the blaring sun. on their way back to the tavern where they'd rented a room for the night, isa unconsciously finds herself walking by her childhood home, with the arched doorway and her father's merchant symbol engraved on the front steps. too late, she realises. too late, and her mother is opening the front door.
#oc tag#ch: isadora#they hardly talk#just stare at each other for long enough that astarion makes to awkardly interject#but then her mother calls her 'dora' and the nickname is like a slap to the face and astarion is suddenly bow string taut at isa's elbow#she holds it together for the conversation - spits out 'hello mother' and acts as if the whole thing is beneath her#because she wants her mum to know that she won! that she made a name for herself! that she's worth something now!#she and astarion make it back to the tavern and it's only once they're securely locked in their room that she just fucking .... breaks down#astarion hugs her to sleep and fights the urge to go back to that pretty two-story townhouse and burn it to the fucking ground#it strikes him though at how similar isa and her mother looked#horns and tail and isa's pink skin tone aside .... she may as well have been a younger mirror of her mother#if you really looked#something about hating the thing staring right back at you#idk i'm kinda self conscious about my ocs at the moment but ive also been thinking about them So Much#isa in particular
