Someone asked about kidstarion wearing his nightie a lot- and him getting more clothes! The real reason is because I'm bad at clothes design. However, for a plot reason- maybe he insists because it's comfy and loose. And if you want some angst, maybe it's because it's the only thing he has from his home.

(the ask also mentioned gale and halsin spoiling him with nice clothes so i'm...gonna sit on that and maybe when I'm better at designing clothes I will come back to it haha)

Which Baldur's Gate Characters Know How To Lace Up Their Clothing - Camp Edition

I got this idea because I noticed Gortash's shirt isn't laced properly, and then noticed Astarion's shirt isn't laced properly, so now I need to look at as many characters as I can because I can't stop noticing. And I'm about to spend too much time on this for it to stay in my brain. Starting with all characters who appear at camp (main party + others.)

Shadowheart, Lae'zel, Gale, Withers, Aylin, Mizora, Duke Ravenguard, Emmaline, and Arnell don't have lacing on their camp outfits.

Starting with the default clothes for Tav. Yes, they know how to lace their shirt. Good job. This particular Tav is Durge, so it's good to know he didn't forget how when his brain got Swiss'd. However, it's not perfectly consistent because on the bottom 2 sets of eyelets he threads from the outside, but the third set he threads from the inside. Though this is probably intentional so the lacing doesn't hang on the inside of his shirt, so 9/10.

Astarion, baby boy, you were so close. But unfortunately there are two pairs of eyelets where he threads one side from the outside and one from the inside. For someone who wants to appear so put together, you think he could take the two extra braincells to lace his shirt consistently. 7/10.

Threaded consistently the whole way through...with one side. Why didn't you finish lacing your shirt? Why even lace one side if you weren't going to lace the other? Why isn't the lacing that you didn't finish shorter than the one that you did finish? All questions I can't answer because I cannot ask. 7/10 at least it's consistent.

I couldn't get a good in game screenshot of Karlach since her lacing is on her pants, but I found a texture rip so I can work with it. So the lacing here is the same all the way through, super consistent, *mwah*, but...it's sneakily unnecessarily complicated. Typically, the lacing that laces from the inside to outside would sit on top, but it's not that way on her pants. She pulls the lacing through the eyelet, then threads it under the other part of the cross, then threads it through the top of the next eyelet. And with as much lacing as her pants have, this must have taken forever for no extra benefit. It would have been easier to let it sit on top. 8/10 its pretty though.

Halsin. Beautiful. Gorgeous. I choose to believe the knots are hidden on the inside. No other notes. 10/10.

I've never actually recruited Minthara so I took a picture from the BG3 wiki. Just like Halsin, beautiful. Again, I choose to believe the ends are hidden on the inside. 10/10.

Jaheira's pants lace the same way Halsin's shirt does: perfectly. Though if the knot is hidden on the inside, I feel like that would be more uncomfortable, so I'm gonna headcannon that it ties at her waist under her shirt. Other than that, 10/10.

Minsc's shirt uses the same model as Wyll's so everything I said there applies here, though I feel like it makes more sense for Minsc. My real gripe here is that Minsc is a liar. Talking 'bout some thrice laced pants, but I didn't see any lacing on those pants. How dare he trick me in this way. 6/10 I don't like being lied to.

Yenna's mom may be dead, but she made sure her baby knew how to lace her shirt before she did. She may have gotten kidnapped by Orin, but she looked put together while doing it. Perfect 10/10. She deserves it after what she went through.

After being dead for 100 years, Isobel didn't forget how to lace her armor. Gotta be put together to see her girlfriend again. 10/10 Isobel can do no wrong.

Volo...I don't know what you've done to the front of your pants but it doesn't look good. Some of those crosses are missing. It looks sloppy. What is this. This is something I would do as a joke to see if anyone noticed. Well I noticed and I hate it. 2/10 it keeps your pants closed I guess.

That's it for the camp. I'll link other sets of characters below as I do them.

live yenna reaction

[autistichalsin]

Sometimes I think about the fact that if Orin-as-Lae'zel kills Yenna, there is an option for Halsin- and ONLY Halsin- where you can check in on him and see if he's okay after that. It just proves that he loves children the most of ALL the companions, because he, more than anyone else, needs to be checked on and consoled after this.

Player: Poor Yenna… How are you holding up?

Halsin: I thought we would be able to help her. I thought we would be able to keep her safe. No matter how long I live, I will never get used to the cruelties that infest our world. That such evil is allowed to breathe the same air as us is an abomination. There must be no more Yennas.

[nightowlqueen]

Astarion's wildly oscillating feelings towards Yenna are a sight to behold.

First he gives approval twice when we help her, but when she wants to stay at camp with us he's a bitch about it and says we have our quota of "mangy strays", but then either mere hours or days later in-game he FREAKS OUT if she's kidnapped by Orin and is like we need to save her NOW!

"AsTaRiOn HaTeS cHiLdReN hE wOuLd NeVeR WaNt Be A dAd! He ApPrOveS oF tElLiNg YeNnA tO gEt LoSt!"

Let's get this straight because I have seen people use Astarion approving of telling Yenna to get lost as proof of him hating kids. It is not.

Okay so yes Astarion does approve of telling Yenna to bugger off.

But he also fucking approves of giving her food or money.

(Durge is grabbing something out of her pack btw)

If anything this kinda shows how the player has influence on Astarion. Astarion has had no autonomy for the past 200 years. He literally says in his good romanced ending that he has to find out who he is and what he wants. There really is no way to tell if he wants to be a dad or not in game because there is no option to bring up the prospect of having children with him. But I still personally feel like if Tav wants kids he'll warm up to the idea.

Also after taking Yenna in he becomes protective of her, albeit in a somewhat tsundere way. Pretty on brand for him I suppose.

So shut up about Astarion hating kids or how it's stealing traits from Wyll and Shadowheart, it isn't.

Went to end the day and Yurgir was just...standing there. Ten feet away from Yenna.

HUZZAH

[phaedrinthefaire]

I saw a post recently about what could’ve happened to Arabella post-game, but what I need to know is what happened to Yenna.

tldr Larian tell me what happened to my girl wait nvm ik what’s canon to me

Did she stay safe in the Elfsong during the Netherbrain’s attack? How did she feel when all of her heroes left the inn one last time? Whose care did they leave her in?

And then once the dust settles and the fractured remains of the party come back to celebrate, what then?

Maybe after weeks of her helping in the kitchen, the Elfsong’s chef finally begrudgingly admits he’s impressed and takes her on as an apprentice, and she becomes Baldur’s Gate’s finest. She grows up as the gate grows back.

Maybe Rion meets her in the midst of celebration and sees a companion for Fig in her, and asks if she wants a quieter place to sleep. Elerrathin’s Home finds a new balance as she settles in. Slowly, she has a family again. A home.

The companions might have something in mind for her. In awe of Tav’s magic, she could admit she wants to learn, and Gale enrolls her in the finest wizarding classes in Waterdeep. Shadowheart decides a little extra help on the farm wouldn’t hurt. (Dad)Astarion, longing for rest, suggests quietly that she can come with him, just for a while. If she wants! That on the road they might find a little peace, if not a little adventure too. (In my hc he’d only be brave enough to suggest it if he’s with Tav but I digress.)

Maybe her path only crosses with the companions again once she’s a little older. Minsc meets her in the city and recruits her good heart in his quest to change the Guild. Wyll and Karlach or Lae’zel return to the gate and find she’s become a young adventurer, a Baldurian through and through.

My favorite of her potential fates ironically is what’s most likely to be canon—Halsin sees her after their celebrations. She’s so tired. Their fellowship is breaking, and so is her something of a family. He knows the exhaustion hovering over fear in her eyes all too well. He wants to see light in them again.

So he takes her with him. Back in nature, she learns how to be a child again.

Brb going to go cry over Yenna. I love that little girl.

(I know we’re not getting a BG4 from Larian at least, but imagine a little sequel where you play as Yenna a few years later. Or any of the kids—Mol, Arabella, Fig. That would be so special.)

Calamari - BG3 comic, Astarion, Gale

I wanted to draw about the canon that astarion remembers the calamari from the elfsong tavern

Why does he remember the calamari? We will never know. Also, I want to draw more Gale. I love their dynamic. Personally I think Astarion once was someone who was a lot like Gale. In his own twisted way. He just lost a lot of it. Maybe Gale knows that. Wouldn't that be fun? We will never know~

Camp cooks :) decided to color this pic

[alicelufenia]

Literally everyone else: *phew* that was quite the unpleasant experience, but I'm no worse for wear 8D Thank you kindly! Cordial character-appropriate snark!

Minthara: My only fear in this life was falling into her clutches again and then I DID and I thought this time I would not survive her. She hurt me in ways I may NEVER recover. And the worst part is I can't even dismiss her as a unknowable monster because deep down I'm JUST LIKE HER and still would be if not for being shown this one random act of mercy by you.

FFFFFFUUUCK
