#also the game doesn't really give you much of a choice to advance astarion's romance without having sex and i don't like that :(

"you drew stars around my scars."
#astarion#baldur's gate 3#bg3#astarion x tav#astarion romance#tav#astarion ancunin#my screenshots#oc: kaelin#otp: you're not alone in this#had to get both of their scars in these screenshots :')#anyways here's a bit of backstory about this scene that no one asked for:#in my head this type of scene does NOT happen for a very long time and when it does it's actually genuine#i know some of you will say but that's not what's canon blah blah blah GUESS WHAT I DON'T CARE :')#that's how i like to imagine it for them because they start as rivals and it's a very long slowburn#and the actual canon forest scene doesn’t fit my character at all. he wouldn’t do that lol#it happens WAY too quickly and at that point they're still rivals and constantly bickering#also the game doesn't really give you much of a choice to advance astarion's romance without having sex and i don't like that :(#i still kept how astarion lies to try and manipulate kaelin in order to gain protection because that's a big part of the plot but +#there was no sex. he just suddenly became really friendly and apologetic and flirty#but when astarion admits he was just manipulating him to get closer to him kaelin is hurt and disappointed all over again#but astarion explains why he did it and kaelin starts to understand. he's still upset that his feelings were played with but he gets it#anyways i like to imagine they build trust and a friendship first and then it takes ages for them to realise their romantic feelings#the moment they officially start dating is after kaelin defends him in front of the drow & it's a huge turning point in their relationship#also when astarion opens up to kaelin about his trauma it brings them so much closer and i imagine there's lots of tears in that scene +#from both of them. also there is NEVER any pressure or rush when it comes to sex in their relationship. they don't focus on it#but i imagine the scene in this gifset happening in their relationship WAY later on when it's genuine and when they're both ready
