happy to surrender
Pairing: Astarion/m!Tav | Rating: T | Words: 1,208 | Tags: Established Relationship, Romance, Banter, Fluff, Humor, sorcery as a replacement for the tadpole mindlink, no beta we die like Dribbles
Summary: A snowflake lands on Tav’s lips, and Astarion melts it with a kiss. “My love.” Astarion’s gaze is so tender, his voice so fragile Tav fears that it may break. “These last six months of happy memories are a counterweight to two hundred years of misery.”
A/N: inspired by a bunch of things: Astarion's epilogue confession ofc, @snowyarts' post contrasting it with his earlier much more grim dialogue, and when I finally started on the New Beginnings prompt for the BG3 Winter Holiday Challenge, I ended up with this🥺 Hope you enjoy💙

The canvas of the night stretches wide above them. Astarion watches it, entranced, ever in awe of each new starscape of Faerûn they uncover during their travels.
Tav is mesmerized in turn by the subtle play of moonlight on Astarion’s skin, in his eyes. The light snowfall grazes his hair, the flakes lingering just a bit longer than usual before melting away. Tav leans closer into the one-armed embrace, pressing his lips against Astarion's neck.
“Any new constellations you can show me?” Tav follows his lover’s gaze to a messy cluster of stars.
Astarion chuckles. “Of course, my sweet. If you remember all the ones from before.”
@snowyarts I'm so happy you liked it!💙💙💙 Also this:

✨A halo for Tav’s favorite little hellion✨

Made a few doodles of Little Star.
"Stop spilling your food on the floor it's wasteful!"
"What food? I'm bleeding from a grievous wound?!"
"I stand by what I said" -Astarion
gale: Hey can i talk to you about somethi
my tav & astarion in the middle of 2am snacktime which he must have had some inkling of given that he came to astarion’s tent specifically:
the way i know astarion would be like By all means. Come on in and say what you need to say to him. Not that you need the invitation. and gale would just be like :) Okay awesome ! then plop down and immediately start talking like it’s nothing. beautiful picture
#he pulls up a chair and sits and puts a throw pillow on his lap and puts his elbows on his knees #and just starts with ‘so i was thinking about our battle earlier-‘ #astarion cuts him off like ‘hey real quick do you mind if i-‘ #‘no no please don’t mind me. anyway when we were fighting i think-‘ #like are you kidding me. like it’s so normal to him. he’s just like Yeah Whatever. #Tav nods to Gale mid convo and astarion’s like ‘don’t do that i’m gonna spill’ #so tav keeps hittin gale with a 👌 so he knows he’s listening. #insanity. #there’s something so *clenches fist* #about gale being tav and astarion’s best friend. third wheeling but it’s their whole dynamic.
Delicious
I found files where, Elder Brain showing illusions to our companions with their deepest fears. I'll try to dig deeper and find more information, maybe some illusion description.
Astarion: Just leave me alone, please, I beg you. No more!
Random companion/Player: The Netherbrain is trying to get to us. Hold yourself together!
Astarion: Why will no one let me be! I can't, no more!
Elder Brain: Always vulnrable...
...always bent to the will of others...
Pathetic
Astarion: No no no NO!
hiya! for the Very Secret Santa =) would love anything fluffy and sweet with just Astarion or Astarion/Tav enjoying a starry night outside. Thank you in advance!
Hope you enjoy this gift! Very special thank you to @satanicspinosaurus for the lovely beta work.
All the Wonders Of the Night - Astarion x GN!Tav
It was the middle of the night, and you were trekking outside of Baldur’s Gate like someone who either didn’t know or didn’t care about the possible dangers outside the walls. Being outside those walls was an important part of your plans though
You’d spent the night in Rivington, and now you left the last road, and plodded south through the open fields.
“Where in the hells are you dragging me,” your companion fussed behind you, causing you to smile. Astarion had made strides in the last couple of weeks, but he was still somewhat the irritable vampire you had met on the beach that day. It also seemed that he wasn’t exactly fond of surprises, but this would be worth it, and he must have trusted in that to agree to come with.
“Not too much further my Love,” you called back behind you, as you navigated your way forward.
AH!! My prompt!! This is so so fucking sweet and lovely THANK YOU SO MUCH💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 exactly what I envisioned😭💙😭💙😭💙😭💙💙💙
Batstarion needs some pampering after a very long day of being a little guy
Rough concepts for a masquerade ball in the upper city with subterfuge missions and a dance with your companion. One can dream 🥹
who should i draw next for the ball? XD
