I do not rp with anyone under the age of 18. Not smut, not anything.Ā
I am exclusive to mutuals, and OC friendly. I will follow back regularly.Ā
That said, please donāt assume our characters know each other unless itās canon that they do. If youāre an OC (besides Tav), our characters must be introduced first. If you want a pre-established relationship, you must speak to me about it first.Ā
I do not rp with personal blogs BUT as this is also an ask blog, so anyone, non-rp blogs included, can always send Astarion comments or questions about anything. All this one means is that I wonāt carry a thread with a non-rp blog, and I will not respond to non-rp blogs that like or reblog starter calls.
I work in multiverses, so duplicates of characters are totally okay.Ā But I will not interact with another Astarion, itās nothing personal.Ā
Please no godmodding.Ā
Shipping/Smut
Both mun and muse are 21+. Smut will happen here.Ā
I ship chemistry only.Ā Unless you can make a really good case for it, I will not accept pre-established relationships. That said, people have made really good cases to me before. If you have something in mind, please donāt be afraid to let me know!Ā
Replies
I will always respond to things in past tense, with minimized text, and no icons. I prefer matching styles, because I reaaalllllyy don't like icons, but I will not push it on you.. So If you post a starter with an icon, or respond to me with one, I will not respond in kind. Itās not the end of the world if you want to use your icons, butĀ :(
If we are mutuals, youāve liked a starter call, and have not received a starter after a few days, itās almost definitely because I missed the notification or I simply forgot. Please remind me.Ā
You may absolutely turn an ask into a starter, in fact I encourage it. I only ask that you repost it in a newā¦ post. This is true even if we have other threads going on, I am always here for multiple threads.Ā
Astarion
The default verse Iāll write in will be one where Astarion is pre-ascension quest, unromanced, andĀ with a neutral affinity toward whomever he is speaking to (unless otherwise planned), this is so any potential platonic or romantic relationships can grow naturally, and the decision to ascend can be flexible.Ā
I really like the storyline of Ascended Astarion, so bonus points if you wish to write in that verse with me.Ā

Just A Warning if you use character.ai or especially Chai that their ToS over content rights is like, crazy.
I mean ngl, I expected for anything created on the chatbot apps to have usage rights go fully to those app creators. It's sadly pretty standard. Like of course they're gonna want rights over all the content, why wouldn't they? But just in case you didn't already know that, just be aware that they are pretty damn aggressive.
HOWEVER.
"Pretty damn aggressive" doesn't even begin to cover what's in Chai's ToS. Look at this shit
Tl;dr: if you LINK any of your social media (this includes Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, all of which the app encourages you to link) then any content on those sites that you create, THEY ALSO CAN CLAIM FULL IRREVOKABLE, PERPETUAL, WORLDWIDE RIGHTS TO, AND THEY DONT HAVE TO TELL YOU OR PAY YOU OR ANYTHING.
THEY HAVE FULL RIGHTS TO CONTENT ON YOUR OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA SITES.
Anyway that's fucking wild, so definitely don't link any of your accounts to that service and if you already have, I'm pretty sure you're screwed, probably even if you unlink your account, but you should probably do that anyway. Also not to put too fine a point on it, but character.ai's ToS are essentially identical in terms of them owning rights forever to any characters and chats you create or generate, just without that whole social media nonsense. In case anyone using it didn't know. So like, I probably wouldn't create or rp as any original character you created, especially if you're ever planning on creating and publishing anything with those characters.
oh and I forgot to mention that they also claim rights over your image and VOICE. Even through publications made through the aforementioned linked social media.
Gale chuckled. "Alright, if I must explode I promise to do it far away from you, then." It surprised him when Astarion lent him further assistance, but he certainly wasn't going to complain. While the health potion had helped, he was still definitely worse for wear.
"I can walk, there's no need to debase both of us." He let Astarion take a little of his weight, but tried not to lean too heavily on the other. "Although I certainly appreciate the assistance." He didn't think they were too far from camp. Hopefully close enough that they wouldn't run into anymore trouble.
Astarion let out a soft sigh. He started walking, carefully protective of Gale's wound as he made sure not to cause too much distress with his movements. "Perhaps I'm growing soft, what with all this heroism," he murmured, almost to himself.
"Or, suppose we strategize our little adventures a bit more skillfully, hm?" He continued, his voice returning to normal volume. "Keeping you in one piece is becoming a rather time-consuming hobby of mine."
He smirked as he considered his own words. The thought crossed his mind that, perhaps, there was some merit in keeping Gale wellāafter all, someone had to appreciate his efforts.

Astarion couldn't suppress the instinctual scowl her words provoked, and when he spoke, it was as if tasting something foul. "And, is that a good thing? I mean," he gestured vaguely in front of him. "Look at what it's gotten you. None of us are exactly what I would call... thriving." He paused, considering what he'd just said. If he were honest, he did prefer his current state in lifeātadpole and allāto the curse that was his time before being lost. But, he owed nothing of his path to any deity, and yet there he stood, same as her. He could not help but question the quality of any god who would claim this path was for the betterment of their follower, rather than for some twisted amusement or personal gain.
"How do you know that you wouldn't have been better off without your faith?" he challenged, his tone guarded but for a slight, reflexive sense of pity for her.

"How very noble of you," Astarion murmured. Though meant to be sarcastic, his tone came out subdued, the sting of his wounds tempering him. "But I'm..." he tried to get up, and the makeshift bandage crafted from the remnants of his shredded shirt pulled tightly around the wound in his side. The pain tore harshly at the strength of his muscles, causing him to falter almost immediately. Unable to complete the move, he only sat up slightly straighter, a meager consolation for the failed effort.
"Clearly fine." He finished with a wry smile, a cold sweat slicking his skin. He knew he wasn't fine, but he also knew he probably would be. The comfort she offered warmed him, but there was a part of him that felt almost guilty about worrying her, and he felt it at least enough to try to pretend that the pain wasn't as intolerable as it was.
"Funny how that works isn't it?" he asked rhetorically, smiling mirthlessly. He lifted his chin, his gaze drifting thoughtfully into the distance as he continued. "How it implies that people are actually reasonable when they aren't trapped. And yet most still manage to be utterly brainless, even in the best of circumstances." He paused to consider his own thoughts, only now hearing them out loud for the first time.
"Or do you think maybe we're all trapped, all the time?" He had certainly felt like that before, and perhaps he still did, despite the drastic changes in his life over the past few months. He was still settling into his new circumstances, still deciding how he felt about much of his current life. "Maybe we're all stupid, witless sheep, fumbling our way through the chute for slaughter. But when one catches on...? He starts thrashing. And all the rest think he's the one who's lost it, but really, he's the only one actually awake."
as a bisexual man, i was talking to my coworker (gay man) today about male friendships, and as it turns out neither of us had really ever had a friend who was a cishet male. This surprised me bc i thought my lack of male friendships was something more unique to me, and that other lgbt men were bros with the cishet men just like u see in the movies. but he and i don't even actually know very many straight men to begin with...
like i know of them. but personally? I actually don't.. really even encounter straight cis men in my personal life. like yes i'll see all of them out in the wild when i go to the grocery store or something, but aside from family, no one who interacts with me on a personal level is a cishet man, they never really have and i wouldn't know where to go about finding them if i wanted to interact with them.
one really interesting (and perhaps very telling) part of this is that the same is NOT true for cishet women. I have PLENTY of friends who are cishet women and so did my coworker. in fact probably most of my friends are cishet, and a smaller, but not insignificant amount of them are other lgbt+ people, still mainly women though.

With an exaggerated eye roll, Astarion let out a disappointed sigh, having hoped for something a bit more exciting. "Apparently, it's not in your nature to be fun either." he quipped, sounding bored.
"Don't tell me you've never willfully done anything... less than moral?" Leaning in closer to Wyll as if to share a secret, he probed further, hoping to coax out even a single instance of wrongdoing. "Not even once?" His voice held a note of disbelief, questioning if this was just an attempt to keep up a heroic image, or if there truly were no such stories.
"You can tell me, you know. I certainly won't judge you." Given the many instances he could recall in his own life, he was convinced Wyll could say nothing to shock him, if he said anything at all.
