BEAUTIFUL I’LL TAKE 100

Okay I LOVE

are you KIDDING me with this LIGHTING

not enough people are into shadowheart/nocturne and it makes me feel insane. like what do you MEAN shadowheart used to beat up people who deadnamed nocturne. what do you MEAN shadowheart would frequently have her memories wiped, but nocturne could get her to remember nocturne in a matter of HOURS if not minutes, and would write on her diary about how happy it'd make her to see the expression on shadowheart's face when she remembered? what do you MEAN that if you give shadowheart the noblestalk, a mushroom so rare and potent there is only ONE of them in the entire game, she doesn't remember her parents or the day with the wolves or the mother superior's name but just nocturne? what do you MEAN nocturne was the one who did shadowheart's hair, and she kept at it until her arms were sore, and even without remembering that at all shadowheart still kept the same canonically hard to redo hairstyle? did shadowheart even like night orchids before their hideout, or did they become her favorite flowers because they were there? were they even actually her favorite flowers, or did she just mix up her attachment to nocturne with attachment to the flowers after forgetting her? hello? hello? can anybody hear me????

Okay wait but why have I never thought of this?? IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

I love her

Welp. What do we call the stage where you start shipping a character with basically every other character.

that one astarion dialogue (when you romance wyll) abt how wyll is the kinda prince charming guy he would've dreamt of marrying as a kid fucking kills me. like 1) yeah same but also 2) do you realize how cute that is. do you realize how cute you sound right now mr brooding asshole vampire. you accidentally just said the most adorable and embarrassing thing ever and tried to make it sound like a jab at ME. oooooooooooo you're crushing on himmmmmmmm 🫵🫵🫵

My favorite thing in fic and fanart right now is when Astarion gets to be so soft. And there’s no world where loving Wyll Ravengard doesn’t absolutely melt that man.

I don’t think I will ever get over @velnna’s Astarion. His big eyes, his razor-sharp angles, his expressive posture — just his whole physicality. So beautifully done.

Ughhhh his lil forehead wrinkles of concentration in the top two!! I love this take on him.

ugh I'm ruined

and they were ROOMMATES

another reason I love these two together: literally no one is better equipped to inflict laser-precision psychic damage on someone's morally rigid military-hero dad than Astarion Ancunín with a rock (acorn) on his finger.

i love them so
