Intrusive Thoughts

Astarion knows full well what he's doing.

#bg3 #bg3 tav #baldur's gate 3 #astarion ancunin #viceposting #act 1 vice is a fucking mess I think until the grove is saved hes just having a manic episode #but there are little moments. #starmax art

love is stored in the cubicle

Burning Hands

#astarion ancunin #bg3 #astarion x tav #viceposting #starmax art #look your BF says 'i want you to make these scars unusable' you Gotta give him a hand #or two #on Fire #I think they are a Little toxic for eachother in that they dont really know how to express love quite properly #whoopse forgot to enable the freckle layer its fixed now

Why can you answer this question like this as durge

like discovering that you're an ex cultist is the same thing as being laid off from a 9 to 5

OKAY I think Ive finally settled on his gear at least until act 3

#viceposting #starmax art #bg3 #bg3 tav #the strap across his chest is supposed to be a harness for like a dagger under his arm #he adventures light #he looks more his age here which was the main goal

[star-max]

MORE of me being a freak about the coronation because i shopped around with different choices, also finally got the parsed dialogue html to work

Infamous fucking italicized "liked"

The way jason issacs delivers this its really like Gortash is trying not to kiss and tell in front of your party. Sadly theres no devnote for this

But also he cant help himself with using "we" and "our" and "us"

its so good hes being 100% sincere and honest, even if you read his mind like he is not fucking with you. I know you can trigger like, him saying he doesnt trust you in his head but I have no clue what does that, because in my 3 playthroughs hes just been happy to have me lmao

The fact that he can be like this with a normal tav too, I think this bitch is just sorta...lonely without durge (which i guess makes perfect sense considering what I vaguely know about his past)

also one of the responses you can give him after he asks you to join him

I have something very wrong with me

I think i would of been like this my first go around w Astarion if I remembered that I could take screenshots earlier

Ill make it up to him at the graveyard scene, still i still havent actually seen it in full because normal Vice was not about to get down and dirty in actual Dirt

Gortash

#This really says a lot about our society. #Boyfriend list even contains potential women #maybe. #Vice's tastes are my tastes but also #what the fuck is wrong with you Vice #viceposting #like Halsin and Gale are not on here #but 2 random npcs are #Which i do find gale Boyfriend but Vice doesnt #Its also really funny with like zevlor and mr hallowleaf is that vice is probably around their age gljdkjsfg #wait mr hallowleaf is an elf nevermind

[freakquarantine]

finally romancing wyll on a multiplayer playthrough and ouhgh this man is too sweet and kind and im not even halfway through act 2 and his approval just Maxes with you

He loves you so much....

But also wyll we are taking dancing lessons when we get back to the gate. the style you were taught as a kid I dont think is Quite how adults at balls really dance

#My friend pointed out that NO ONE records or talks about his romance dialogue and its so true #bc i had no idea going in if you could even like ask to kiss him like some of the others #but you can! #and when you ask him about what the two of you are he just...starts reciting the most sappy love prose at you and its fucking #ooughhghhh i will not survive #its even funnier bc im doing it with Vice bc uh this is probably the most healthy relationship hes going to have Ever #I dont think these two would move as fast as how the game presents it #its very much a ''and they were both bottoms'' type situation. #its also so funny bc vice/wyll is Parent Issues #they really have a lot in common with all the self sacrifice and itd take vice a Huuuge amount of time to admit he likes wyll #bc then hed have to admit he likes himself to a degree #viceposting

[freakquarantine]

Its very much the "Its rotten work, but no one else would give these people the chance- so we have to step up"

#like gale and shadowheart probably help to a degree but still #4 people VS that many people who may just wanna eat you or kill you for other reasons #tough stuff #even at level 12 #sure vice could have Mass Suggestion but then theyre just sorta stepping back into cult of the absolute territory again #its hard doing the right thing #itll probably be something they dedicate a large part of their lives to #if this was a real tabletop game I feel like letting the spawn go and dealing with the aftermath is very much the goal until level 20 #unless some crazy shit happens #viceposting #bg3 spoilers

[star-max]

getting there, i just need to actually do his texture edits in substance now and locate the wrinkle map textures (???Im not even sure if the engine uses them but it feels like it does)

I always feel Bad touching realistically styled stuff but this doesn't feel Too Off I hope

#viceposting #I might need to make the scales smallerish to match more with the default texture #and then just stick to drawing his scales more simplified like that #hmm #anyway im off to bring astarion into blender hoo hoo

[star-max]

wish i knew how to draw scars better, I really want him to look like hes been through a blender twice

#the freckles will come LATER i swear #viceposting

It also lets me flesh out the "Coworker who is a whole bitch" rival idea that's been rattling around in my head.

Vice is in a competitive career where one wrong step means you're like in jail forever, or worse. You have to be the Best, but not too good, otherwise the council is going to rethink their relationship with you.

If you're not under their thumb then you're just a threat to the state

So I imagine that he has this coworker, same rank but jealous of him because he gets more leeway, cause the Iltarch knows hes a pushover and is too scared to step out of line.

So once Vice goes missing she jumps at the chance to take his place, eventually he get's declared an enemy of the state cause uhhhh

something like

the council is wrapped up in the cult of the absolute stuff? I don't think anyone that far south would be infected, but there's probably rumblings of the cult and the council wants a piece of that pie. Vice is originally sent to make contact on behalf of the council and thats how he gets Nabbed

Act 3 Vice throws his career away, cause FUCK THAT. He's fallen in love, is going to fight an elder brain, and general has found the zest for living that he didnt have before. Being some yes-man isnt what hes about anymore.

But hes also become WAY more powerful, and the iltarch is not happy with that, and the fact that he fucked up a great opportunity for power

cue post game, said coworker who I should really give a name too, comes to collect him, or arrest him if he doesn't cooperate.

He doesn't

#viceposting #bg3 spoilers #LIKE i imagine this was the closest thing he had to an actual friend even though im being uncharitable to her personality #like it is Very much a rival type thing #also I do like the idea of him being taken like a princess and astarion having to come rescue him #hes just picturing vice locked in some tower when in reality they gotta chain that mother fucker down #muzzle him!! FUCK
