Why did I just realize this is a fictional representation of American healthcare?

Lae'zel's character and her entire situation at the beginning of the game becomes so much more funny when you find out she's 22. It makes so much sense. Imagine you're 22 and you're exposed to this dangerous toxin or chemical or something - but not to worry, you learnt that this can be easily fixed, you just need to dial 911 real quick. Common knowledge. Everyone knows that. You learnt that in kindergarten, it's up there with fire alarm drills.

But the people you're stuck with have no concept of modern medicine and when you say "let's go to the hospital" they will say shit like "i think they kill people at the hospital" and "we should ask this swamp lady" or "this guy over there told me about this homoeopathic healer kind of guy but he got abducted" or "this random bard wants to help" and "I'm not going to dial 911 because I don't want the government to know my home address" or "maybe we should consider a deal with Satan". And then a bunch of them KEEP consuming the chemical because it makes them "stronger". One guy might explode for unrelated reasons. You have a few days before this situation is getting critical and suddenly they're solving crime and doing general charity for the community.

And FOR SOME REASON you still try to help these idiots and you STILL want to help them get the cure even though they all keep insisting the "doctors" at the "hospital" might try to "kill them" and they don't have insurance. And you keep telling them to just. go. to. the. hospital. before the time runs out and you all die very horribly of a very treatable condition.

And also you're 22 in a foreign country and you're responsible for shepherding this gaggle of idiots who are all ranging anywhere from 24 to 240 years old.

Still in the mood to paint :)) and playing this fucking game everyday- (Please don't spoil me, I haven't finished act 1 yet and I know *nothing*, and I haven't done the githyanki quests yet either)

[COMMISSIONS]

she's mean, she's a freak, she's cringe, she's so cool, she's kinda ugly, she sucks so bad and I love her fjfkfk a bit sad my character is also a fighter so I don't have her on my team a lot :(( but she *did* ask me if she could lick my sweat fjdkdk and she's right, I rejected her but I've been thinking what could have been ever since-

[1] - [2] -

Sketch and more yapping below vvv

also I have to say that all the lines where she asks others to sleep with her and gets rejected everytime makes me sad :(( babygirl I promise I'm romancing you next run.... But *sometimes*, she'll say something to Shadowheart and 👀👀 girl ? Ladies 🏳️‍🌈 ? Ennemies to lovers 100k words ??

This portrait beat my ass btw it was so hard- between her face proportions her armor her sword and the colors.... my personal hell fbgjhbgdvj but I'm really proud of the final result ;w;

I am planning on doing all six main companions :) of course in order from my favorite to the one I feel most neutral about. Don't get me wrong I like them all (for now), but one had to be last-

PS : big sovereign Glut fan ! Until, you know.... The Betrayal ..................

OH my GOD. This is incredible!!! I love every single element of it!!!! Stunning and perfectly detailed work!

Started playing bg3 again. Love this game so much. Here's some art i made

[bg3womenconfessions]

What if I don't want to save Baldurs Gate and the Absolute, what if I just want to spend all my time in a huge orgy with Karlach, Shadowheart, Lae'zel, Jaheira, Minthara, Korilla, Alfira and Lakrissa

[fannish-jam]

I gotta say that I think the Baldur's Gate 3 fandom has some amazing ship names.

I have to hand it to the Astarion enjoyers because you are all very creative with them:

Bloodweave, Hellspawn (shout out to someone naming Astarion x Karlach IcyHot in the tags), Bloodpact, Bloodbear

Are great shipnames!

I would like to make a chart of all the names in the fandom for my own reference, but I would love to share it with you all when I'm done!

And yes I stripped down to get that extra buff HA He didnt do shit for damage to Mark… boy got hp for daaaays and this was doin noooothin’… Don’t know if me bein disappointed was a good thing XD

Better yet. I met people who claimed he is not mean, that he actually respects you and that you have I quote "adult consenting relationship with him" and maybe he does after the changes devs made after all those Ascended Astarion girlies complained, but it doesn't change the fact that he is not himself anymore, that he sacrificed himself for the power and that any relationship you have with him is just an illusion of equality. You will never be his equal and he will always see you as his possession rather than the person who is an equal partner to him. If that was removed then maybe I'd believe that you can have an evil x evil ending with him, but otherwise you are just his favourite toy.

And it's not just Astarion.

Gale, Shadowheart, Lae'zel and hell even Wyll. All of them can make a bad choice that they think they need to make until you show them it's not the case. Three first need to reject themselves for the sake of the power and security that is offered to them, while the last (Wyll) needs to lean into his prejudices and misguided notions in order to reject his own values for the sake of fulfilling the contract with his patron and not only gaining power but becoming the fake hero who condemns rather than listens, that he never wanted to be. If not for you Karlach would be dead as Wyll would not question and just assumed Karlach was evil. Same for Shadowheart and Lae'zel. Without you neither of them questions Shar / Vlaakith making them play into their abuser's hands. While Gale without you would just simply blow himself up just as Mystra told him to at first opportunity, or just like Astarion he'd just reject himself in favor of something that will never be him - a God.

Still Bad versus Good ending is not necesarily about morality.

In dating games this is simply a distinction between outcomes. The character in question may even enjoy the outcome despite it being virtually worse than the Good Ending version they would get instead. Still, it doesn't mean that people can simply just say that Bad Ending is actually a Good Ending simply because they say it's a better choice because no matter how happy or fulfilled character may seem, at the end of the day it is a bad outcome for them. The one that often ends with them harming themselves deeply in a way that can't be healed.

And player is often the one who let that happen.

The lack of media literacy in the baldurs gate fandom is astounding. There's a good ending for Astarion and a bad ending for him and people keep picking the bad ending for him and being shocked when he's mean to them LMAO.

“Lae’zel’s hand wraps around her wrist and pulls her forward. Foolishly, Shadowheart can hardly think about the risk of the bomb; only that Lae’zel is finally holding her hand. They make it out the door just in time.”

drew a scene from @isolatedratkings awesome fanfic!!!

[serendipizzy79]

Amazing

A little game to strip a wizard or whatever the hell is going on here? I don't know.

Can you tell?

I spent an insane amount of time working on this render, so I'm going to spam it so hard it's not even real
