I’m watching a video that’s explaining that Lore Olympus is actually about and IM GONNA FUCKING SCREAM

#I heard nothing but bad things about that comic and the art is atrocious imo #so I was never interested in it given how naturally wary I am of Greek retellings anyway #but they did WHAT TO DEMETER #TELL ME YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE MYTH THST WAS THE BASIS FOR THE MOST IMPORTANT AND POPULAR GREEK MYSTERY CULT #WITHOUT TELLING ME YOU DONT UNDERSTAND IT #FUCK

[moghedien]

She only likes priests of other gods when they beat me 😭

#Shadowheart #first playthrough the only time I got both Shadowheart and Lae’zel approval #was when I did shit like this and inflicted pain on myself #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

I’m obsessed with her even if her hair is red because of all the blood half the time

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #durge #the dark urge #I’m not doing an evil durge playthrough with her #but sometimes you gotta be big and scary at people #and sometimes you wake up covered in tiefling blood and guts #it happens

[moghedien]

GIRL IM NOT DOING THAT

#Shadowheart #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #last playthrough Lae’zel was like ‘YOU BETTER NOT’ #and now this playthrough Shadowheart is like ‘Do it bitch’

[moghedien]

mom I frew up

#durge #dark urge #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

Anytime I take a half-orc intimidation option (which there are a lot of), Shadowheart approves of it no matter who it’s against

girl is literally just watching my big orc lady be a big orc lady like 👉👈

#I am big like Karlach and green like Lae’zel so I guess I accidentally made her exact fetish #shadowheart #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

She says this while absentmindedly petting my giant wolf

#GIRL #I must have not broken open that box last time because I didn’t remember seeing the paper that describes the rite Shart went through #but I broke the seal and she was like ‘don’t open it I’m Sharran 🥺’ #and I was like ‘thank you for telling me I will not judge you’ and opened it #shadowheart #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

The way to assert dominance with Lae’zel really is just to stare lovingly back at her when she’s trying to stare are you while you’re sleeping.

She’ll get too overwhelmed and start monologuing

#at the end of the monoglue she’s like ‘anyway back in bed I need to fuck you some more’ #lae'zel #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

Anyway….

#her name is Bug

[moghedien]

Did I pick this subclass to give Shadowheart wolf trauma when I romance her?

Yes.

#she did not comment on the giant wolf nor did I really think she would #still gotta do it

[moghedien]

also just know that the outcome of that poll will likely not affect me at all and my decision will be like whatever I feel in CC but I'm giving people the chance to give me brain worms one way or another before I sit down to play

[moghedien]

#playing a girl either way #i imagine keeping oaths as a paladin would be like #a challege #partially why i wanna do it #but also I feel like there is less fun in playing a human usually #and I could get a wolf companion and traumatize Shart it would be romantic

[moghedien]

so when I was finishing the game last night, I did both possible endings with Lae'zel and saved right when I could make the choice so that I could reload if I wanted, and I was like "you pick" the first time and so got the dragon rider ending with her and part of me was immediately unsure because the immediate vibes were kinda weird and whatnot but the thing that actually made me reload was that KARLACH FUCKING DIED AFTER WE LEFT AND I TOLD HER I WOULD STAY WITH HER

anyway just from a vibes standpoint I rather the "stay in Faerun" ending with Lae'zel because it does feel less like she's going from one extreme to another and just taking a fucking break for the first time ever. like she could theoretically get back to kicking Vlaakith's ass at some point in the future but like let my girl have a little snooze and hatch an egg first. and also her tone when she was staying felt more like her choosing her freedom than her "this is my glorious duty" tone she had before. like her act 3 romance scene tone vs her like talking about githyanki propaganda tone. but also Karlach isn't fucking dead now

basically I just know now not to let my companions ever make their own choices because I'm still regretting letting Shadowheart choose what she wanted to do and she KILLED HER PARENTS

#but also like damn why is it that I can let Shadowheart and Lae'zel choose their crazy decisions #but I get absolutely no option to let Wyll make his own decisions when it comes to what to do about Mizora? #like what the fuck was that why was I the one deciding for him? #like there wasn't even an option to let him make his own decision #lae'zel #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

It’s actually kinda so fucking sad that Minthara thinks that everyone hates her still but she still showed up when she was invited (just assumed there were multiple times when she wasn’t)

#maam I had extremely high approval with you and Lae’zel ans you were like sick and twisted besties #what do you mean #minthara #minthara baenre #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

[moghedien]

Obsessed with her big ol’ peepers

#bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #lae'zel

[moghedien]

I love my wife, even if she growls at me every time I stop kissing her.

#why does she growl every time 😭 #Lae’zel we gotta stop kissing at some point or the tadpoles will win #lae'zel #baldur's gate 3 #bg3

if you raise the egg with Lae'zel and stay in Faerun, she'll mention to you in the epilogue that he's being watched by "your newest allies" who she "trusts completely" tonight and just immediately wondering who that could possibly be that Lae'zel would trust completely to watch your son.

and it just made me think, that if you're playing a Tav who isn't an orphan, maybe has some siblings and somewhat of an extended family who they might want to get back in touch with now that they don't have a tadpole threatening them and everyone around them and also they have a githyanki wife and child that they want to introduce people to, Lae'zel would have absolutely no vocabulary for even just most of Tav's familial relations but she'd defintely have no concept of "in-laws."

She thought parents were made up and fake until like a week after you started traveling together and she admits that her "cousins" she mentions didn't indicate a familial relationship in like a societal standpoint and just indicated that they hatched from the same clutch as her. So if Tav started throwing parents, grandparents, siblings, nieces, nephews, actual cousins at her? she wouldn't understand it. So like assuming they're all on good terms with Tav, I could absolutely see her being like "These people seem strangely devoted to you. They have many stories of your past that indicate that they have protected you, but could also bring you to ruin and humiliation should some of these tales be spread. We will form a powerful alliance with them."

like just imagining the epilogue, someone asking Lae'zel and Tav where their son is and Lae'zel being like "He is being watched by our newest allies who are utterly devoted to protecting and keeping him from harm" while Tav just simultaneously goes "He's with my parents"

#if Lae'zel is with you and meets your parents and they aren't dicks #you KNOW she would be like completely ride or die for her in-laws despite having absolutely no context for what in-laws mean #all because they just seem to really like you a lot #'in laws? yes our alliance will be so strong it will be as if it is etched in slate. the highest and most unbreakable of laws' #lae'zel #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #lae'zel x tav
