I love the idea of meeting the infamous Halsin your friends boast about, and he’s just smitten with you
Everyone always described him as such a flirt- charming, handsome, the whole package so to speak. Granted you underestimated what they meant when describing how giant he truly is. But most of all, you didn’t expect him to be so.. wonderful.
You knew your friends keep good company, so you expected you’d get along, but you didn’t expect to be sitting next to the giant bear of a man enthralled in conversation for hours. Had it truly been hours? It’s easy to make friends, but more of a challenge to find others you truly connect with, and Halsin was checking off all of those boxes.
And of course, his looks and overall stature combined with this personality make it difficult not to swoon over, but at the moment, you’re too elated simply connecting so well with someone else again. Who else would let you ramble about cute critters for 45 minutes straight?
What you weren’t catching on to, however, was that Halsin was absolutely taken with you. His eyes would drink in your features when it was your turn to speak, a smile stuck on his face as he listened to your nonstop train of thought, rambling on about another fascination of yours. Others tend to find these conversations a bit goofy, laughing them off, but you were invested. Even about the silly little things. And he loves it. He truly feels that he could watch and listen to you for hours and he wouldn’t get tired of your company.
The way his cheeks would flush a warm pink when you laugh at a silly nature joke of his.
How he would feel his chest warm as you seem to unknowingly lean in closer to him, letting your knees touch his without moving away.
Let alone the way his heart would beat faster as you take his hand in both of yours, turning his palm to face upwards as you trace lines on his hands, “I’m serious- you have earth hands”
“earth hands?” he’d repeat with a slight chuckle
“well don’t laugh at me!” you’d reply with a taunting smile, “it’s all in the shape; broad, large, square hands. It’s positive, don’t worry. It means you have strong values, or something.”
“Does it? What else does it mean?”
You’d pause, holding his one (large..) hand in both of yours, “Responsible, practical.” you’d say, your thumb almost massaging his palm. “comfortable working with your hands,”
Halsin’s face would flush again, subtly. He’d notice the way yours does, too, which doesn’t help his ever growing infatuation. His eyes are locked on yours, he’d be happy if you held onto his hand forever. He is almost instinctively flirty, following up with “to put it lightly, I suppose.”
There would be a moment of shy silence. You, trying to hide your embarrassed smirk by staring at his palm longer.
Halsin would be the type to forget anyone else is in the room, lifting the palm from your hand to hook a finger under your chin to get you to look up at him. Even sitting down he’s still double your size. His thumb would graze your lower lip as his eyes gaze into yours.
Unfortunately, there are other people in the room, and they ruin the moment.
“Halsin, have you seen- of course.” your mutual friend would say, rolling their eyes with a laugh. “Stop flirting with my ride home!” They’d tease as they grab your arm and pull you away. You know he’d be wanting to chase after you like some silly romantic novel. Another mutual friend from the group would plop down next to him, smacking him on the back with a laugh. “Careful, your eyes are practically turning into hearts.” They’d taunt. “They’re great, right?”
“An understatement.” He’d say with a warm smile, watching you leave, already hoping for the next encounter.

My feelings about why people hate Halsin :
he is handsome
he is kind
he is not an "I will fix him" person, even if he has traumas
he is not needy
he knows what he wants and what he needs
he assumes his flaws and failures, he can speak openly about it
he is tall and strong but he is gentle
It is reasons to love him too but I noticed that people hates this kind of "adult" character.

That's not Halsin's blood-- fighting in wildshape can get messy
Clover is very catlike and hides physical injuries because it means vulnerability
But after some time I think he was also afraid of being seen as a liability and getting left behind.

I want to play with Halsin’s hair.
Imagine him sitting on the ground in front of you, and you’re on a couch/log of sorts right behind him. One of your legs is draped to the side of his shoulder, the other tucked underneath yourself half cross-legged as your fingers play with Halsin’s hair.
He sits quietly with his eyes closed, enjoying the sounds of nature and your gentle touch. You like to play with his hair- somehow so.. luscious, even when he’s been living as a bear. Makes you jealous, really.
“braids or bun?” you ask softly, waiting a moment as you realize he wasn’t paying attention. “…Hal.” You poke, tapping his shoulder, seemingly taking him out of a trance.
“Hm?”
“I’m asking what you want me to do with your hair, Halsin” you say, raking your fingers through his scalp again as you mindlessly part strands, debating on braiding or not.
“I have no preference other than for this to never end.” He’d coo, with a slight chuckle as he can feel you tense slightly. He’s not a fool, and he’s not the only one in camp aware of your crush. But, he is respectful first and foremost, as to not push your limits. Though, he hasn’t inquired.
“Hal, please” you’d say, thanking the gods that his back is turned to you so he cannot see your fight to contain a smile.
“Whatever you feel best, my heart.” Oh, he may not be facing you, but he knows the warmth rushed to your cheeks with that line. He’d reach his hand back somewhat, enough to rest on your thigh as he sits patiently.
..until you playfully smack his hand away, “Don’t distract me or you’ll end up in pigtails at best.”
If only you two would just confess and get on with it, you could have many more hair-braiding sessions to fix up the post.. shared-bed-roll-nights.

Baldur's Gate 3 (and, by extension, Larian Studios) has ruined gaming for me. Not only is Bg3 a well-crafted game with an excellent plot, fun mechanics, and realistic characters, but they actually listen to the community? People ask for Minthara to be a companion on a good playthrough and we get it. The community asks for an epilouge and what happens? We get a godamned reunion party. They literally went "You know what? We can do you one better." And over delivered.
Larian has really gone above and beyond with this game. How am I supposed to go back to soulless, triple AAA games that ignore their community (not to mention the well-being of their workers) after this?
