I got this the other day and this just solidifies my idea that Astarion doesn't want to "share" you with anyone, he's fine with a poly with Halsin because he's desperate not to lose Tav due to the lack of sex he can provide....
You're right: he DOESN'T want to share. His hypersexuality (hedonism) is a masking of his trauma. And if you decide to pay for the services of the drow siblings, it basically tells you that he's dissociated. I think the narrator says something like he's putting on a masterful performance but the look on his face shows that he's miles away. I saw a clip of it and was like "Well, this is definitely not something I'll be trying."
@@yahyahyor if you do and you talk to either one of the twins about how you want to hire them, Astarion will be like "of cooourse, have your fun but i sincerely hope it's not because WE haven't in a while...hmm?" makes me die on the inside honestly, especially the sad hmm at the end
Now if only Karlach was down for a throuple 😂 I know Shadowheart is into it (or at least she is into it when it comes to having fun with the drow twins) but unfortunately Karlach is like Wyll and is a only-one-person kinda partner (if only we could couple Karlach and Wyll together in non origin playthroughs, and maybe couple Shadowheart and Laezel together too just to see if they try to murder each other haha)
@@elenalizabeth both shadowheart and karlach are open to allowing halsin in to the relationship. shadowheart is very enthusiastic about it while karlach is obviously pretty upset, but she wants tav to be happy so she lets them be with halsin too. i dunno why i can have a throuple with shadowheart and halsin but not shadowheart and karlach though when shadowheart definitely has a crush on karlach HAHA
@@serana.7462 urgh IKR I want my lesbian throuple 😑 and I think Karlach would actually be down for Shadowheart more than she is down for Halsin 🤔 like at least with Shadowheart she would gain a friend/companion and not just a f-buddy like Halsin would be
Regarding breaking it with someone to be with Astarion, I love when you initiate dualogue with HIM FIRST. And you say something like I want to be together with you not the other person. He then looks so suprpised when he says: "what? Why?" 😅
Awww, Shadow is so adorable. I’m going to load up my save and smooch her, then upload my other save and smooch Astarion. Both of them needs love and care. 🥰
@@JSXX23 is it true that Laezel leaves you bloody and bruised after a night with her? Her species is certainly… interesting… when it comes to mating if it is true 😂
No matter who you choose over her Shadowheart always takes it really well(even laezel!). Shes a real champ. Cant say the same for the rest of this crew of drama queens lol
Aww Shadowheart is such a sweet heart . . I notice that alot of people is saying Gale also took it like a champ? Im not sure if they updated it but after Patch 4 he was so upset when i break up with him for Astarion, like really really upset 😢 i feel so bad after it so i reload the save before i sleep with him and i avoided talking to him all together so the romance will not progress. I cant hurt him like that. Not when i know it’s always been Astarion for me
When in the game did this occur? I romanced Wyll and broke up with him in Act One near Last Light Inn, but Astarion’s reaction was completely different and a lot less sincere, even though I had Exceptional approval with him
Not sure what complications Astarion is talking about aside from the vampirism, tbh 😅 Sex is optional, and quite frankly, once you get down to it, he's damn good company
He has low self esteem, and like many survivors, he fears his trauma makes him too much trouble for what he's worth. It's actually so sad to me that he doesn't realize how lovable he is 😢
@@thearcanamodernau8130 hmm which do you think would be more interesting (or more murderous) Shadowheart x Astarion, or Shadowheart x Laezel 🤔🤔🤔 Wyll x Karlach are just perfect for each other (both very monogamous) especially as it seems she can’t burn him like she can others? 🤔 And Gale x Astarion is oddly cute and kinda work together I think. I just want to pair all my companions up and sit back and gossip with Withers, because he totally seems like the type to want to dish the tea 😂
I ship them so hard!! He flirts with her a lot in act one and she bites back, often unkindly but still teasing. Even Lae comments about how she blushes after he compliments her.lmao If I ever play as one of them I’ll romance the other for sure!
I actually like Karlach and Astarion together. She can't be touched, he doesn't know how to be in a relationship and tries to manipulate people with sex. They have time to get to know each other without being physical which Astarion doesn't mind because he doesn't want to be a sex object.
I know this isn’t what the video is about but HOW DO YOU GET ALL BLACK SPIDERSILK ARMOR is it a mod? I cannot find all black dye anywhere in the game 😅 and I’m desperate
@@breecegriffith5896 how's about this you don't ask about the non-binary character's birth gender and I won't ask why you're so interested in a baby's genitals, hmm?
