listen I don't believe in redeemed gortash as in doing a 180 and helping puppies and orphans bc his eyes have been opened to the badness of his actions but I DO believe in redeemed gortash as in seeing durge tadpoled, realizing that the only way to save his love is by giving up his plans and going against his god to help destroy the brain, and being ever so slightly tempered by a redeemed durge who is far too tired of doing atrocities at someone else's bidding and only wants to Exist Neutrally now. still a politician still power hungry but reformed banite whose only motivation to not hurt people is not seeing that hurt and disappointed look on his beloved's face after everything he (indirectly) put them thru

oh god oh god. i was NOT prepared for the surprise of "Shadowheart's Mom has early stage Alzheimer's/Dementia" She literally gets you confused for Shadowheart/Jen if playing a fem durge/tav (apparently she confuses you for her HUSBAND if you're playing dude) and she's at that stage where she KNOWS she's slipping and will get worse and not better and holy shit this is so heartbreaking and hits way, way too close to home (lost my grandma to it, and my aunt that was basically my mother died from a brain tumor that...caused issues) JFC this is brutal, hits close to home, was a total surprise on my 2nd run, and I can't remember seeing it depicted in games (esp. fantasy games) very often.

Good Love Beside Me
Reader x Astarion x Halsin dynamic Word count: 18,129 across (probably) 11 chapters Status: Ongoing, currently on chapter 8 Rating: Explicit. Violence, gore, etc. Standard durge run shit. Halsin nods along, and when you express your dismay at sounding too much like the elders you must have been raised by, all gloom and disappointment at the state of the world, he laughs again. "Call me an old man, but I've seen enough changes in the last few centuries to know that it will continue shifting whether anyone likes it or not. And people get along and survive these changes every day-- it's just a matter of luck and a will to live." "Do you think I'm lucky?" You ask as you're returning the pipe to him. He accepts it with a coy smile. "I think you want to live." A Tav with more than just the parasite's affliction navigates love and impulse.

as someone with ocd there was nothing more stomach churningly frustrating* than the companions responding to the dark urge confessing their “dark thoughts” with “oh don’t we all!”
i’ve talked about it before, but on discord a group of us kind of talked about like figuring things out about ourselves through this game or REALLY relating to aspects of characters and such and one that’s really stuck out was redeemed!durge and OCD.
it’s one that just fits so so well and i think is a great testament to how OCD is viewed as just “the cleaning disorder!! just something everyone deals with!!” when it isn’t!
sure, astarion may have dark thoughts of killing people. lae’zel, too. hell, even wyll! but it’s so much more than that.
ough. i won’t go on but relating to durge through my own OCD is something so special to me
*the part of frustration comes from the recipient of the conversation not understanding, not how the lines were written

Chosen
Decided that I wanted to make a less gory portrait of my main BG3 lad between working on more gore-pieces with him. Watch me make his ears floppier for each piece.

Reformed Durge has one little quirk that just CAN'T get rid of because they CAN'T understand why it's wrong
Cannabalism
Because the people are already dead, people would only be a little grossed out if a wild animal ate it so why is it wrong when a reformed scion of Bhaal wants to snack on some dwarf??? Stop looking at me like that Gale, I didn't kill them for meat it was for adventuring purposes!! They're gunna get eaten by bugs anyways!!

i love this screenshot so much. i imagine that rather than only one of these choices being what she wants to say, she simultaneously thinks them all. she’s exhausted. she’s happy to be alive. she doesn’t think she deserves to be alive. she’s grateful. she’s depleted. she’s terrified. she wants to know how the fuck her camp’s resident skeleton just brought her back from the dead

Rhyleth worships every single inch of Enver Gortash- his crow's feet, his pock-marks, his chubby belly, his burly arms, his smile lines, his scars, his round, plump butt, his hairy chest and hairy butt. Especially after he rejects Bhaal he becomes a more gentle lover. There had always been thorns and claws attached to the way in which the Drow had touched him before.
I think that they had some gentle, soft moments before, but their dynamic is definitely healthier. Whatever it was that precisely happened at the temple after Rhyleth came back from the dead, Enver almost missed the old Rhyleth. Yet the newfound tenderness that his lover had offered to him was something that the tyrant had desperately missed. Maybe he'd grow to like the softer touch.
There had always been a highly sexual element to their relationship, and at first it was based around sex. The attraction had been immediate and brutally carnal. As a Banite, Enver had been used to a touch of pain from a partner. There was something utterly enthralling about the Drow assassin born from the essence of Bhaal himself.
He'd always admired the cruelty of his mind and how he turned it into an art. Unlike Orin, Rhyleth's artful cruelty always had a purpose to it. He didn't even mind it when the Drow held a blade to his throat as he thrust into him on top of a blood-stained altar. Enver hungered for the feeling of the other man's teeth bearing into his flesh.
But, a gentler Rhyleth? He could get used to that. The part of him that he'd suppressed and set aside after being denied love in his childhood, he could see himself accepting tenderness and affection.

if i had a nickel for every sapphic couple in baldur's gate 3 featuring a buff daughter of a god absolutely obsessed with their small selunite cleric gf helping to save the world i'd have two nickels
which isn't a lot of nickels but love that it happens twice in my game (dame aylin / isobel, redeemed dark urge / shadowheart)
(and yes, my character flat out converted to selune near the end of act 3 lol)

Full list of tags on the fic itself.
