i've talked before about how astarion doesnt feed from roz a lot because they basically agreed that he could do whatever and left it in his capable hands. and im thinking about the shadow cursed lands and how there's nothing for him to eat.
and now im thinking about him starving and going to their tent in the middle of the night to ask them if they'd be willing to let him feed from them again, and how the last time he fed from them when he needed to he took and took and took and they died and he didn't care.
but now he cares so much more than he ever thought he would, and is he sure he'll be able to stop this time? would they even trust him to try?
(of course. they tell him to take what he needs, but he doesn't even know how to begin to ask for what he needs, so he settles for a meal.)
