Anyway Gale bg3 is demisexual and astarion bg3 is some flavor of aroace they’re ours now sorry not sorry

#Gale doesn’t even kiss you for the longest time - he’s building an emotional bond #his sex scene is less about sex and more about using physicality to express his emotions #astarion takes the whole game to be interested in sex with you for sex #he starts out using you for protection #then explicitly says he doesn’t want anyone to think of him in terms of sex #and has been sex averse for the last 200 years #it has been 200 odd years since he’s been actually sexually interested in someone #and if he’s ascended he’s back to using sex to manipulate #if he’s rejected the ritual he’s interested in sex for intimacy and outside of that appears to disassociate #and he’s definitely some flavor of aromantic #his romantic life lines up with his sex life - it’s been a tool for the last 200 years and you are the first person he’s had feelings for
