other than bg3, what games would you rec for an astarion stan?
THIS IS A TRICKY QUESTION! Do you mean as a fan of an astarion romance, so something that has similar themes? Or in general games that are more similar to BG3?
In my rpg blog we post sometimes summaries of what to expect from different games and random recs!
In general this question is so interesting because I could read it completely different : D you could be asking "what games have romance that start with a lot of flirting and seductive guys" and I am definitely hearing "what videogames have blorbos you can romance, blorbos who are angsty and will LIE TO YOU and you can help fulfill their quest until they feel a tiny bit better"
If you are asking about the second case then, I can definitely recommend:
Dragon Age series (especially DA:O for Zevran and Morrigan, DA2 for Fenris, and DA:I for Blakwall)
Pathfinder Kingmaker (Octavia and Regongar, but also Tristian)
Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous (Wendy)
Sorcery! (Flanker)
Divinity original sin 2, pretty much everyone! But probably Fane
In general these ones have good romance and are amazing games!

yeah I finished Survivor again so I’m back writing my worsties <3
Cal Kestis lay battered and unconscious in the dirt at her feet, his hand outstretched to where her lightsaber rested mere inches from his desperate reach. Imogen’s fingers twitched to call the weapon back into her hand, but she hesitated as she stared down at her old adversary. There would never be a better opportunity to end him than this. The echoes of battle sounded off in the distance, reminding her that the Empire could very well have the compass within their clutches soon. If she did not act, her path to Tanalorr will be lost.
Imogen’s teeth scraped together as her jaw set in a hard line. With her cybernetic leg, she firmly kicked Cal in his side. The impact made him flinch and blink awake in a daze. Imogen had little patience. She uttered a stern command. “Get up, Jedi.”
COME AS YOU ARE by BLAKWALL
Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend
As an old
Memoria, memoria
Memoria, memoria
note: I just really love this cover and it has been an Imogen/Cal song for ages. Them just constantly going back and forth from allies to enemies and the deep history they share from being a part of the Order but their upbringings were so vastly different.

saw this at @hawkhills and couldn't help but share a bunch of uncalled for information yay!
tea, coffee, or soda? Water! If I don't drink water I am dead! But I used to drink a LOT of coffee, and still kinda do, so yeah.
dogs or cats? Dogs, because a) I'm allergic to cats b) I have very rarely encountered a cat I liked. Dogs though? Pure love ❤
can you play an instrument? Not anymore. I used to play piano because music school blabla, but even then I wasn't good.
what's your sun sign? Virgo.
first song lyrics that pop into your head?
Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend,
As an old enemy
BUT the Blakwall rendition because earlier today I watched a TLOU2 fan video where it was used
do you have any tattoos? Yes, one. Three birds of Rhiannon in a circle, touching wings, kinda between the collarbone and le boob because Stevie Nicks, Rhiannon, witchy magic legends etc, huge fan. Also the birds were believed to soothe the pain with their song and I think it's beautiful
favorite place you traveled? Wales. My sister's family and I took a trip to Snowdonia and MAN the mountains, the air, the snow, the thick forests, everything ughhhh I wanna grow into earth and become a tree there
what's the last movie you watched? The Whale bc my friend and I were doing an Oscar movies' run and softing over Brendan Fraser. The movie was great, I fucking sobbed
what languages do you speak? Russian (native), English, bits of French and Italian
do you have any hobbies? Vinyl records! I don't have too many, but I love those. The dustier and shaggier, the better. I've got a pretty good collection of Fleetwood Mac & Stevie, and started collecting me some of my fave jazz ladies recently besides all the rest
you can hang out with one fictional character for an hour, who do you choose? Oh god. Probably Patroclus from "The Song of Achilles" (that being the retelling of the Iliad but okay let's consider him fictional) because he'd know the best places around ancient Greece and I LOVE ancient Greece
compliment yourself: Honey babeyy you're doing alright, you're trying, you're caring, that is enough for now.
I'm always shy about tagging anyone, so if you see this and you wanna do this, this is me tagging you with a kiss on a forehead and a blessing 🌱

The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Saturday, June 11th
ANGEL: You're not gonna win.
HOLLAND: Well - *no*. Of course we aren't. We have no intention of doing anything so prosaic as 'winning.'
ANGEL: Then why?
HOLLAND: Hmm? I'm sorry? Why what?
ANGEL: Why fight?
HOLLAND: That's really the question you should be asking yourself, isn't it? See, for us, there is no fight. Which is why winning doesn't enter into it. We - go on - no matter what. Our firm has always been here. In one form or another. The Inquisition. The Khmer Rouge. We were there when the very first cave man clubbed his neighbor. See, we're in the hearts and minds of every single living being. And *that* - friend - is what's making things so difficult for you. See, the world doesn't work in spite of evil, Angel. It works with us. It works because of us.
