Just wanted to say that I've had nothing but wonderful experiences with guest comments and it makes me sad that a few, annoying people with nothing better to do ruin it for others. To those who can't leave comments anymore, know that I appreciate you reading my work even if you can't leave a comment right now. :) <3

I just want to know what kind of comments people were getting for AO3 to disable them for guest????

What level of delulu is it when you look at Astarion and say: "Gosh, you're so pretty covered in blood?"

“Caught”

Finding out that Swen Vincke reads BG3 Reddit posts filled me with hilarity and fear for his sanity.

My thoughts exactly. Like I'm proud of Larian for calling it and wanting to move on. As a creator nothing is worse than being forced to work on something JUST BECAUSE, ya know.

But...WOTC... I'm not optimistic that they're going to handle the characters with the same amount of care that Larian did...

Mixed feelings.

I respect Larian for not releasing dlc just for the sake of milking the game that brought them so much succes, but I'm not convinced BG3 won't be milked to death anyway.

The thing is, the rights belong to WOTC, and considering the obscene amount of money this game has made them, I will not be surprised to see them try to milk the story/characters with less than stellar additions to it.

Kinda hope WOTC doesn't want to lose more goodwill and will leave this story and characters alone, but I don't feel confident at all.

I don't normally post stuff like this, but as someone who eventually wanted to make NSFW comics, and nearly every single platform for creators is starting to say, "NO" I'm really starting to get annoyed.

I'm honestly so sick of these companies bowing to this "protect the kids" BS. Like, has anyone considered that maybe kids shouldn't be roaming the internet without parental supervision. If your kids are on adult sites (not that Gumroad was ever advertised as one, but it's a shop for creators, and NSFW creators shouldn't be banned from it), then that's because YOU'RE not watching them. It's not anyone else's job to police your children, it's YOUR job as their parents.

Stop being lazy.

Stop giving your kids a tablet so you don't have to deal with them.

Parent your kids and leave adult spaces alone.

No, the durge doesn’t count as an origin character they’re customizable. No, I will not be accepting criticism.

what if i draw them kiss,,,,, what if i don't stop drawing them kiss, what then

I have no idea when I drew this…. But here’s a portrait of Qyunn (tav) to brighten your day. No wonder Astarion’s smitten. Look at his wittle face. :)

As an end of year present (and because I won't be able to bring u anything new until next week), have that one comic I posted for the VIPs a while back

after months and hours of sketching I’m finally starting to figure out his stupid face and hair TT A TT

tumblr has an AI toggle you should turn on to prevent your work being shared with training models/etc! it's under settings (gear icon) & then visibility.

Qyunn. The love of Astarion’s life everyone. He’s a certainly not immature in the least…

He was so hot for that fr fr

BG3 is a R O L E P L A Y I N G GAME...

Okay, time to be a bit controversial but I need to get this off my chest. Mainly because I've been seeing it everywhere. Instagram. Here. Youtube. Even the cursed site that is Reddit. I doubt this will reach many people, but I'll feel better having gotten it out of my head.

I think that a lot of people who play/played BG3 have forgotten that it is of ROLEPLAYING game. Let me repeat that. ROLEPLAYING. That means, that your game is based off of YOUR choices and YOUR choices alone. Meaning that the things you choose to do in this game are based on YOUR interpretation of the media. There is NO canonical interpretation of the game because it is YOUR campaign based on how YOU play. The plotline, the romances, and everything that happens is based on YOUR choices and how YOU decide to ROLEPLAY it.

Why am I putting so much emphasis on this? Well, because with the new patch, some additions were made to Durge's storyline. Mainly regarding Gortash. Nothing major at all, honestly. But, as we know, durgtash is quite a popular ship in the fandom. There was an added line during Gortash's coronation when Gortash expressed that he "liked" the Dark Urge in comparison to his sibling. A line has been added where the Durge can reply "I think I liked you too." That's it. That's what all the fuss is about. Because oh boy, did some people interpret that as Larian forcing durgetash on the players. First...what? How--

Let me preface this by saying I'm NOT a durgetash shipper AT ALL. I don't even like Gortash. Believe me, I've tried to see what people see in it (and him). I went and found all the journals and letters trying to see the romantic connection, and I just couldn't. It seems more like admiration and respect than love for me, but hey...guess what...that's MY interpretation. That's not what those who love this ship feel and that's perfectly okay because it's THEIR Campaign.

My point is, in no way is Larian FORCING a romantic relationship between Gortash and the Durge UNLESS you interpret it that way. Gortash says he "liked" you. Okay, That can mean many things. He respected you as his partner in this whole scheme. He enjoyed your company in comparison to Orin. Or, he saw you as a true friend. Or if you want--and only if you want it--he liked you romantically. And this is vice versa for the new line that was added to further differentiate the Durge from a Tav. It is such a vague line and can be interpreted in so many ways, that I truly don't understand what all the fuss is about. If you don't see Gortash as a previous romantic partner...then don't.

The Dark Urge is in many ways a blank slate. Yes, they have a bloody past when it comes to murder, but you don't have to add personal relationships to it if you don't want to. Hell, in my latest playthrough, my durge was a virgin when this whole mess began lol (They, of course, didn't know that, but it's what I roleplayed). They also never fully recover their memory outside of what's shown in the game. They're a complete blank slate at the start and the end. The durge has no personal background so you can make your own. So you can ROLEPLAY.

If you don't like the idea of Durge and Gortash being a thing...don't roleplay it that way. And, if you interpret that line as romantic DON'T click it. But there is no reason to be going around saying something is being forced on you when it isn't.

(If you want to be mad about something, be mad about Wyll constantly being sidelined compared to every other companion, but that's another post in itself.)

Anyway, if you read this thanks and have fun with whatever headcanon you carry.

I love the camp gossip but do wish companions would interact with each other more... so I'm gonna draw it!!! I think Karlach and Astarion gotta have the most contrasts between their characters but one bit I like especially is touch starved vs touched out.
