He didn't have a heart; not anymore, that is. But, in that moment, he could almost feel it thrum in sync with her strumming. Or perhaps, her performance--she--touched more than his phantom ache... Perhaps it was his soul.

For she sang to him like a harpy, yet it was his soul that called to her.

Utterly DIVINE artwork by the lovely @redreart ❣️ And don't mind me... Juuust practicing my writing for my upcoming Tavstarion/SunStar fic 👀

[xpao-bearx]

Alrighty, my fellow Astarion fangbangers!! I've got a 🔥SPAHCY🔥 oneshot idea~

This is an idea that's been a parasite in my teeny brain for a while now and at first, I didn't wanna share it cuz I wanted it to be a surprise for when I actually write and post it. But to those who follow me, y'all know I just LOVE to ramble so I couldn't keep it a secret anymore 😂

And sooo here it is: A smutty oneshot of Spawn Astarion x Fem!Reader x Ascended Astarion!

Now you might be thinking... How the HELLS would a threesome with Spawn Astarion and Ascended Astarion ever work??? O_o

Well, lemme ramble some more! 😆

AHEM

Throughout your adventure, Astarion ascended and made his lover (you, dear reader ❤️) into his dark consort. After saving Baldur's Gate, you go to live with Astarion in his palace and start anew with your life of immortality.

At first, everything was going well. Astarion relished in the power he's craved so much and you stood by his side as his most prized treasure. And yet... There was a suffocating emptiness in your heart.

You were happy. Or...you should be. You were going to spend a wonderful eternity with your lover and you only gave Astarion what he's always wanted...right?

But as time passes, Astarion changes more and more. You still loved him, you will never stop loving him, but you couldn't deny that his dominance and possessive nature over you...unsettled you a bit.

Anyhoe, long story short, while you are just wandering around the palace one night and rethinking all your life choices that led you to this very moment, some ✨️magic✨️ happens and Astarion appeared.

Only...this was Astarion from the past. Before he ascended.

This story is still a work in progress so forgive me that this is all a mess, but basically this other Astarion is spawn Astarion! Spawn Astarion comes from another dimension where he never ascended. In that dimension, Baldur's Gate has also been saved but at the cost of spawn Astarion's lover's life--your life.

Astarion couldn't handle the tragic loss of his one true love so he became obsessed in finding something--anything--to be with you again, even at the cost of his soul. I'm still working out the details, but Astarion ended up finding something which made him transport to where you are now!

You are obviously baffled by spawn Astarion and can't quite believe it, but he's just so fucking happy to see you--to be with you--again. And maybe...just maybe...

You wanted to be with him, too.

But of course... There's ascended Astarion.

Beautiful, foolish treasure... Did you really think you could ever forsake your master?

Expect quiiite a bit of angst with this oneshot but, OF COURSE, some real nasty smut too! 😉 I plan to hopefully write and post this story after I finish the game and have experienced both spawn and ascended routes!

Also, I REALLY hope this doesn't cause any discourse! I, personally, prefer spawn Astarion but I also ADORE ascended Astarion (✨️nothing✨️ will stop me from simping for this vamp dork)! I know everyone has their own thoughts and opinions for both and which one is "better", but for me I just live and let live! Let everyone be happy with their own preferences, please 🥰

And I hope no one steals this idea of mine! Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen anyone else have an Astarion fic like this so I would assume I would be the first to have this specific idea. If you were inspired by the premise and wanna write something similar, PLEASE credit me for the inspo but also tell me if you post it cuz I would absolutely read the SHIT out of it!! \(^o^)/ But yeah, just please don't copy the WHOLE thing cuz, like I said, I do plan on eventually writing this fic myself!

And hey, if ya wanna be tagged for when I post this fic, please don't hesitate to tell me! 💕

STUNNING artwork by the super incredible @ineed-to-sleep ❣️ This absolute masterpiece just makes my heart a c h e in the BEST way possible 😭❤️❤️❤️

[xpao-bearx]

I'm SCREECHING these are SUCH awesome questions!!! \(♡o♡)/

Also @kelandrin I absolutely ADORE your blog, just wanted to say 🥰

Anyhoe, I'm totally batshit OBSESSED with my Tav and I'm always down to find literally any excuse to ramble about her 😅 But sorry if this is all a mess (and some things may be missing as well)! I also try not to write TOO much cuz I do wanna save some more interesting shiz about her character and story for the fic I'm planning!

What is your character's Act 1 main story?

-When you recruit Mon'sun, at first she just seems like she's tagging along with you in order to get rid of the parasite once and for all and since there's strength in numbers. She makes no comments about her having other plans or whatever, so initially you may think that she's just here for the (chaotic) ride and that's it. She has no goals and she'll simply leave once the adventure's done.

But when you get to know her better, you'll notice more and more her apprehension towards Baldur's Gate. There's something in that city that just strikes her nerves. Something...or maybe someone?

Either way, she won't ✨️spill✨️ until you have a deep enough relationship.

The evil drow goddess, fucking LOLTH, also plays a HUGE role in Mon'sun's life--and struggles. Mon'sun is a very outgoing person, but there are...some times...where a darker, twisted part of her takes over. Something she so desperately tries to suppress, to hide.

To kill.

Will you find out what it is? Are you even willing to? And if you are, will you save her or will you condemn her?

How do you meet them?

-You will meet Mon'sun at the Emerald Grove. When you approach the tieflings that are training with weapons and then asked by Asharak if you can share a few words of encouragement with the kids, Mon'sun will appear and join in the conversation soon after. Depending on how you respond, Mon'sun's reaction will vary.

If you treat the children with kindness, Mon'sun will be happy and say something like "How rare! Someone with enough brain to have enough heart, too."

However, if you treat them badly, Mon'sun laughs wryly and makes a snide comment "Well! I can't imagine waking up everyday looking like THAT, so I can understand why putting others down would make you feel better."

Vicious Mockery K.O. 😂

But whatever way you treat the kids, it will trigger a short cutscene of Mon'sun pulling out her lyre and starting a beautiful performance that gets the kids pumped up. I can totally see her singing a song similar to something like Soldier, Poet, King! I also headcanon Mon'sun's voiceclaim to be the singer annapantsu so specifically I imagine Mon'sun singing that song covered by annapantsu ^_^

What do you learn about them in Act 1?

-Right off the bat you learn that Mon'sun is very cheerful. Even when she's upset or in a distressing situation, she still tries to stay upbeat with a bright smile and just brushes off whatever's bothering her. This is obviously not very healthy, but she does a pretty damn good job of hiding how she really feels a lot of the times (and she's quite a sneaky and manipulative lil shit with that!). When having important moments with her, you sometimes even have to roll a perception check in order to pry further into her true emotions and intentions. Additionally, Astarion would make a few comments here and there regarding this because he can see right through her (considering he's quite similar to her in that aspect! And don't mind me, just casually slipping my ship on here LMAO xD).

Mon'sun also aligns as a chaotic neutral. She leans more towards good, but her chaotic nature makes her to be quite an unconventional (and perhaps even unstable) character. Years of being a wandering bard has taught her to be a lone survivor and to look after her own interests. And to preserve her safety, she absolutely has no issue fleeing from any problems that may arise which may even make her be seen as a bit of a coward.

BUT she has a heart of gold. This is very apparent to whenever someone needs help in the game and you agree to help, you gain instant approval from Mon'sun and even some dialogue afterwards of her praising you and her being eager to assist in any way she can.

She also has a huge soft spot for animals (BIG approvals from her whenever you're kind to them) and throughout the game, you can see that she's formed quite a bond with Mol and the other tiefling children. She vibes easily with them and her troubled past plays a big role on why she understands and empathizes with them so well.

Her past is another thing you learn about her...or, rather, NOT learn. "I have lots of stories to tell, but mine is not one for the books" she would say if you ask to get to know her more. It takes quite a bit of pushing and some checks for her to reveal pieces of her childhood, but it's not until you progress to Acts 2 and 3 that you FINALLY learn her full story.

She's also quite a chaos gremlin! She does try to stay out of trouble as much as possible, but a bit of fun mischief (and maaaybe a bit of theft) never hurt anyone! Well, maybe it did, but it certainly never hurt her since she always got away in time~

Do any special scenes trigger for them?

-For me, one of the first things that instantly comes to mind and something that I find very important for Mon'sun's character is the whole interaction with Minthara. When you first meet Minthara at the goblin camp, Minthara will notice Mon'sun if you have her in your party and make some kind of derogatory comment about half-drows. This IMMEDIATELY pisses Mon'sun off and this will be one of the first few times where you'll see Mon'sun completely devoid of her usual smile, instead replaced by a cold hard glare towards Minthara. Mon'sun will then respond with something like "What about you, then? Counting the days for when your precious Absolute will shit trash like you out just like your ex spider bitch?"

Obviously, this interaction between them causes a LOT of tension and it's up to you if you wanna try to defuse it by passing a check OR siding with Mon'sun and battling immediately with Minthara.

If you kill or knock out Minthara, a short cutscene triggers where Mon'sun notices something on Minthara's body. She slowly approaches Minthara and finds the Spider's Lyre on Minthara, which surprises Mon'sun. Mon'sun has the exact same lyre and she's never met anyone else with the same one since it's so distinct, but now it's making Mon'sun question how and why Minthara has it. And does the lyre have any further meaning..?

Another "special scene" I have imagined for Mon'sun (which is a bit of a smaller scene) is the morning after you have your first encounter with your Dream Visitor. When you go to ask Mon'sun about any similar dreams, Mon'sun acts a bit distant and says something like "Dreams... Heh, I have 'em, alright." If you pass a check to use the tadpole to probe into Mon'sun's mind, you will discover that she did have a dream, but not with any Dream Visitor. Rather, from the veeery small fragments you can gather, you can actually make out Lolth.

This shocks Mon'sun and she quickly breaks off the connection, and she is mad. Pass a check to calm her down and if you succeed, she'll apologize then her red right eye will start to hurt. If you try to ask more questions, she'll reveal that her red eye always hurts whenever Lolth is involved in something.

If you ask her what this "something" is, she'll apologize again and say that she can't say. She's only asking you to trust her and that everything will be okay, to which you'll then be presented with options where you can react negatively or positively to her.

Aaand that's it!! Obviously there's a LOT more, but this was just a fun lil taste~ 😉 I hope y'all liked it! ❤️

Tav Question

Pretend for a minute your Tav is an origin character. Origin characters have a main story with scenes in each of the three acts, as well as a three act romance structure (usually with check points in the form of their main story scenes but sometimes with affinity). I will be doing questions for each act, both the main story and the romance story.

What is your character’s ACT ONE main story? How do you meet them? What do you learn about them in act one? Do any special scenes trigger for them?

"The truth is... I've always wanted to reach you."

"And the truth is, I've always been waiting for you."

Absolutely GORGEOUS artwork by the immensely talented @afraid-of-thunder ❣️ I seriously CANNOT stop obsessing over this, mah lil black heart is just BURSTING and I'm sooo fooken excited to write what the context of this particular scene is in my upcoming fic!!! \(♡o♡)/

[xpao-bearx]

Probably no one cares, but I just edited my pinned post where I introduce myself! I've been wanting to do it for a while now and I FINALLY got off mah lazy ass and I think it looks a lot better ^_^ New year, better me~

I also added a writing masterlist to my pinned post! My blog is disorganized as f u c k but at least this way, it would be much easier to find my stories! It's empty right now, but I'll add and link my stories to the masterlist when...I'm not feeling lazy 🙃

Hey, I said better me, not NEW me 😂

Also, I know I've been a bit (a LOT) behind on replies and stoofs and I'm so sorry about that!! Life's been crazy but I'll do my best to respond when I can ❤️

[xpao-bearx]

Y'ALL I'M LITERALLY FREAKING THE F U C K OUT AOAKDJENDKDKLSK!!!!!!

This is my first ever Cameo request and a lil birthday gift for myself and I STILL can't believe NEIL FUCKING NEWBON ACTUALLY DID IT AHHHHHHH!!!!!

I'm soooooo happy ajsjsks my year is fucking MADE 🙌 Neil is SUCH a lovely man and, for context, I work in a daycare so the "little devils" Astarion is referring to are my kids 😂

Also I can't get over the way he says my name LMAO it's so funny but I really appreciate it cuz most people tend to pronounce it wrong! xD

[xpao-bearx]

Love at first bite 🦷

IMPECCABLE artwork by the magnificent @basketobread ❣️ Truly a huge honour to receive such a hilarious and beautiful comm from one of my fave artists EVER!! Like, they just got the chaos gremlins down SO RIGHT xD Definitely be sure to check 'em out!! 🙌

Also... FIC FOR MY TAV AND ASTARION COMING hopefully SOON!!!

[xpao-bearx]

Thanks so much to @galesdevoteewife for le tag!! \(^o^)/ Definitely check her and her AMAZING Tav, Zilvera, out! 💖

Anyhoe, here's my Tav~

Name: Mon'sun

Nickname: My sun (from her childhood by her adoptive mother and later on by Astarion), Mon-Mon (again from her childhood by her adoptive little brother), and spiderling (by Lolth)

Height: 5'5"

Gender: Female

Orientation: She identifies as straight, but she could be bi. She's only ever had flings with men, but she finds that she wouldn't really mind being with a woman if they have a connection. But, honestly, however someone identifies doesn't matter as long as everyone is happy and comfortable!

Nationality/Identity: Baldurian

Favourite Fruit: As long as it's edible, then she'll eat ANYTHING. Years of being a wandering bard has taught her to make the most out of very little and that includes food. She's just happy to have something in her stomach and she's down to try out new things, too!

Favourite Season: Spring, the season of rebirth!

Favourite Flower: Hmm... She hasn't really thought about that. Do ALL flowers count? She likes to collect random flowers throughout her journey and put them inside her favourite books to preserve them as cute little bookmarks.

Coffee, Tea, or Hot Chocolate?: ALCOHOL. Ahem! I mean, similar to food, she's down for anything!

Avg. Hours of Sleep: Always being on the move (even before embarking on her grand parasite-filled adventure) can drastically affect her sleep. She typically is able to sleep for about 5 hours (or less), sometimes 6 if she's lucky.

Dogs or Cats?: YES. She's a HUGE animal lover (has no preference) but she might be a bit too much. Just take a look at camp and all the different animals she's adopted throughout the journey... Astarion hated it at first until swarms of adorable cats started appearing one day!

Dream Trip: Anywhere that's not Faerûn. She loves her homeland, don't get her wrong, but one day she dreams of getting out of the continent and far away where she's never been before (should she be brave enough). Perhaps travelling to all the wondrous destinations she's read about in books and even to places where heroes of old have trod, discovering for herself if they're merely myths or not.

Number of Blankets: One, two, three, four... Wait. Why are you asking? Are you cold? Don't worry, Mon'sun's got plenty of blankets to spare and it's toootally not because she has a hoarding problem!

Random Fact: Mon'sun has a lot of calluses on her fingers from years of playing the Spider's Lyre as well as scars due to its sharp strings. They're her pride as a musician.

This was sooo much fun!! I hope y'all liked it and if anyone ever wants to talk about my baby Mon'sun, I'd be very happy and honoured to! 🥰

I'm tagging @basketobread for this but no pressure of course, lovely! 💕

The Tav Ask Game

Thanks @hotnerdywizard for the tag!!💜💜💜

Name: Zilvera Nickname: Drow, Zil, Spider Height: 5′ 2" Gender: Female

Orientation: Affair with her ex-mistress. Had a myconid, think Emperor is hot, fall in love with Gale. Not sure what's the proper term to phrase this lol

Nationality/identity: Menzoberranzan

Favourite fruit: Not a picky eater. Whatever juicy, sour and sweet, like pomegranate or berries.

Favourite season: Winter

Favourite flower: Sussur bloom

Coffee, tea or hot chocolate: Poisonous herbal tea

Avg hours of sleep: 4 hours trance but always vigilant.

Dogs or cats: Dogs, cats, owlbears, lizards, dolphins... in a distance

Dream trip: Sigil, the city of infinite possibilities! And Astral Plane, she dreams of seeing the astral whales.

Number of blankets: 1, but she has a full set of towels for all kind of purpose.

Random fact: Super flexible. Stretch in weird poses when she's alone and pondering things.

Like, very weird poses lol

No pressure, only if you are in the mood to play! <3 I would like to tag @xpao-bearx @linaartss @thetavolution💜💜

[xpao-bearx]

This is dedicated to the absolutely beautiful hooman bean @basketobread 💕 They are truly one of the best people I've EVER met and has such a kind, wonderful heart!!! Furthermore, all of their artworks are literal ✨️MASTERPIECES✨️ They and their works are a constant source of joy for me and I just got inspired to write this very short, very simple fic of my BG3 Tav and their much beloved character Lunara meeting 🥰 It's not much, but I hope y'all like it and I hope even more that I did Lunara's amazing character justice! This is also my first time writing my Tav in a story format so it's great practice and an opportunity to flesh her out more before I post my fic of her and Astarion :)

More about my Tav here + this is the song she's singing in this story (and fun fact: I headcanon the singer to be my Tav's voiceclaim!) ❤️

Fic is under the cut and thanks sooo much for reading!! \(^o^)/

Darkness consumed the drow cleric's entire visage. A darkness that reminded her of her past in the Underdark; a waking nightmare she miraculously escaped, forging a path of her own, under the light and guidance of her Lady of Silver.

But this time, she feared that this smothering darkness would be...permanent. She could feel herself blinking, yet only blackest black and the stinging prick of her tears greeted her. She felt the ground beneath her and she doesn't think she broke any bones--or so she hopes--but she couldn't move. There was a looming heaviness in her chest and ice gripping at her heart.

Is she...dying? Eyes fluttering shut, she's resigned to her paralysis, but has not given up hope.

Because fuck that, she's most definitely not a quitter.

"M-My Lady of S-Silver..." She murmured, weak in physique but ever strong in her faith. "P-Please watch o-over me, h-help me overcome..."

She hasn't the faintest clue how long she stayed like that, strengthening herself in prayer, though eventually her ears perked up at the sound of...footsteps?

Something--or, rather, someone--sat next to her. She heard some shuffling then the soft strum of a lyre being played and a beautiful, soothing voice reverberating in her head.

"Flower, gleam and glow

Let your power shine

Make the clock reverse

Bring back what once was mine"

As the mystery songstress continued, she could feel power coursing through her veins, slowly but surely. She blinked once more and faint spots of light danced amidst the shadows.

"Heal what has been hurt

Change the Fates' design

Save what has been lost

Bring back what once was mine

What once was mine"

She felt her fingers twitching, toes wiggling; and, like a flower blossoming, she rose. She let out a sharp gasp as she sat up, chest still heavy but not as excruciating as it was before.

She's alive.

She blinked rapidly, perfect vision returning. She had hardly a moment to gather her bearings when someone's voice rang excitedly.

"Holy hells! I'm so glad you weren't, like, completely dead! Good thing I saw you just in time!"

Her gaze landed on the young woman before her. A half-drow with a smile as bright as the sun and mismatched eyes (one, she noticed, being a rather unusual blood red with a prominent scar across it). She was pretty--ahem, very pretty, might she add--but looked worse for wear. Something she was sure she looked, too.

Before either of them could say anything else, a migraine hit them both like a spiked club. They both cradled their heads in their hands, fragments of a hellish nautiloid swirling in their minds, waiting for the pain to pass and their eyes meeting in recognition.

When it finally did, the stranger piped up once more.

"Oh, wow, we're parasite pals!"

Despite the situation of it all, she laughed. A welcoming warmth radiated from the strange stranger, enveloping her and easing the tension of all of today's utter bullshit. From being kidnapped by godsdamned Mind Flayers to being infected by a disgusting parasite, she laughed and felt comforted that, at the very least, she was not alone.

"Indeed we are!" She grinned before holding her hand out. "Thank you so, so much for saving me! My name is Lunara and you are..?"

The stranger beamed, shaking Lunara's hand and her other hand making a theatrical waving gesture. "Mon'sun, at your service, fair maiden! Perhaps you've heard of me, perhaps not. The tale of my titillating life is still being written, you see~"

'Ehe. TIT-illating.' Lunara thought to herself, letting out a small chuckle before clearing her throat. She was a toootally mature adult, after all.

"Well, Mon'sun, Selûne's blessings upon you!" Lunara did a half bow, mimicking Mon'sun's theatrics which Mon'sun definitely approved of. "Besides your incredibly kind and gracious act of saving me, I'm positive my Lady of Silver led you here for a reason. What say you we band together and find a cure for this parasite?"

"Oho, asking to team up so fast? I would say take me out to dinner first, but I'm pretty easy sooo..." She joked, making a show of thinking before gasping dramatically, pretending to cry tears of joy. "Yes! A thousand times yes!"

Lunara just as dramatically placed a hand over her heart, sniffling. "Thank you! I promise to make you a happy woman!"

As they both stood up chattering and laughing away, preparing for the thrill of adventure ahead, Lunara noticed she was missing her coin pouch.

"Have you seen my coin pouch? I could've sworn I had it tied tightly around my waist, so there's no way it could've fallen off after the nautiloid crash." Lunara questioned as her purple eyes darted around their surroundings, ash and smoke rising from all the debris.

"Perhaps it burned away from the flames of the crash." Mon'sun replied smoothly, helping Lunara seek for her humble riches.

(Pssst, Mon'sun is lying and has Lunara's pouch in her pack, but she rolled a Nat 20 on ✨️deception✨️ sooo...)

"Well, nevermind then!" Lunara shrugged, smiling. "I'm sure our Lady of Silver will grant us great blessings for our journey. In fact, she has already bestowed upon me a most wonderful blessing in the form of a kind, trustworthy new friend!"

Narrator: *As the two drow kin embark on their perilous quest to free themselves of their parasites, a haunting voice echoes deep within the recesses of Mon'sun's mind; her own parasite. One of a different, godly breed taunting her--tormenting her.*

"Do you wish to find comfort in the presence of another inferior god, spiderling?" Lolth cackled, cruel music flooding Mon'sun's ears, vicious mockery only she can hear. "Such foolishness will only bring about disappointment...much like your new companion. But I am here, spiderling. Always watching. It is only a matter of TIME for you to bathe in her blood."

Mon'sun abruptly stopped in her tracks, shutting her eyes tight, nails digging into the palms of her hands that nearly drew blood as she willed the spider goddess to not so kindly fuck off. She was used to this by now, the lure of Lolth's appalling temptations always merciless, sickening, and...gratifying.

But no. She will never ever give in. Absolutely fucking NOT!

"Are you alright, Mon'sun?"

Mon'sun's eyes snapped open, sweat beading down her temple and wide, frantic eyes landing on Lunara, a few feet in front of her staring at her in concern.

"...I forgot!" A beat too late, a beat too nervous. But thankfully, Lunara didn't seem to notice it, only watching in curiousity as Mon'sun rummaged through her pack that was literally ripping off the seams.

Mon'sun then procured a small purple pouch, smiling sheepishly as she handed it to Lunara.

"Apologies, friend. I stole picked this up earlier and just remembered it now. This must be yours, yes?"

Lunara caught Mon'sun completely off guard when she launched herself at the other girl, wrapping her arms around Mon'sun.

"Oh, our Lady of Silver truly blesses me! Thank you, friend, your kindness knows no bounds!" Lunara giggled.

Mon'sun was still for a few moments before returning the embrace, laying her head against Lunara's chest. Her bardic ear listened close, the faint thrum of Lunara's heartbeat--as lovely as its owner--lulling her to a wonderful sense of security.

No matter how temporary.

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it and I'm so happy that you enjoy my story 🥰
