hi hun! a quick heads up for you and anyone else reading this, but there be (light) spoilers in this here reply <3

so i finished my first playthrough two days ago, and romanced Astarion with a chaotic good tiefling lore bard, Rhapsody. i took him EVERYWHERE, and only left him in camp once because i needed three of the others at the same time, and i hated every second he wasn't in my party xD

i found it surprisingly easy to get his approval up, and never had to deviate from the actions my goody two shoes 'please let me help you' tav would take. his disapporval hits were never more than 1 out of 100, so in the grand scheme of things it really didn't make too much difference. there was a section in act 1 where it felt like Rhaps was immediately losing every step of ground she made with him, but by the time i got to act 2 and got the post-Araj Oblodra scene, he was sitting at mid 70s approval, and once i hit act 3 he was at max 100. the more you get into the story and the more opportunities you're given to listen to him, learn about his past, and help him, the more he warms up to you and begins to see things from your side

Mainly, thank you kindly, I was genuinely anxious about that one back when I did it, because RUTH was a bit overused as it was, but I couldn't find a more fitting song.

i’m every woman <3 ivbe Never smoked an apple bong but i would love to be that type of person

Babe �� that’s truly horrible Not to scare u, but persistent lower-back pain that keeps getting worse COULD be a sign of a kidney infection. This happened to a close friend of mine this year: xir waited almost two weeks to go to the doctor, immediately got sent to inpatient for advanced kidney infection, then went septic on them + almost died... xir’s fine now, and I don’t mean to scare u unnecessarily— I’ve just seen firsthand how important it is to get lower back pain checked out
