I'm a millennial female. I like nerdy things. I have a lot of thoughts that no one really cares about so I decided to make a blog so I can put them out in the world, while sparing my Facebook friends my pointless rambles.
Been busy doing other stuff finally sat down to try and finish one of the three play throughs I have going right now. Did not finish, but we fucked up Cazador so that’s cool.
My husband commissioned this painting of the beautiful Pale Elf from one of our very talented artist friends. I love him so much. (My husband and the portrait)
Since no one asked, these are my thoughts and why I don’t like him. In no particular order.
My first character was a draconic bloodline sorcerer drow (based on my irl DnD character) and having some wizard mansplain magic to me like I hadn’t been born with it really pissed me off and kind of set the tone for the rest of my relationship with him in subsequent playthroughs
Our “first date” was basically him letting me drive his car past his ex girlfriend’s house.
His attempt at flirting was telling me I remind him of his (albeit very cool) notcat.
When I turned him down he basically said “fine, guess you won’t even care when I kill myself” which is hardcore manipulative and very close to something said to me by my actual real life abusive ex which made my skin crawl.
“I question the wisdom in that” bitch, don’t question me. Fuck you.
I will say how he responded to my ilithid character in the new epilogue was actually rather sweet and really made me warm up to him. But I’m not sure I’ll ever be more than friends with him. It took everything to romance Karlach instead of Astarion for one playthrough, I just don’t think I have it in me to romance Gale.
I do appreciate the art though and I don’t think any less of any one who does like him.
