      Alright so spoilers here for Act...2? 1-2?
      But you know when you save Arabella? The little girl that was going to be offed by that horrible druid woman and her snake? Arabella's mom gives the player a locket after we save Arabella.
      Now...I had to abandon a playthrough in the beginning of act 3 for embarrassing reasons, so when I started my new game, I was trying to go through as fast as I could while still making all my good aligned choices because...I'm autistic with hyper empathy and will cry if I make the pixels sad.
      But when Gale first asked for an item...I didn't have any except for the locket that Arabella's mom gave us, but the thing is that I know what happens to Arabella's mom and dad later in the game, so I literally sat at my computer for like 20-30 minutes just debating with myself if I should give Gale the locket or not.
      I really didn't want to because in my head it was like, "Oh but Arabella doesn't have her parents anymore and she might want the locket back to have something of her mom" (I do not think this is possible in game, this was literally just in my brain)
      At first I told him no, but then he yelled at me! 😂 And I didn't want the pixels to hate me so I went back and sat at my computer again for a while before painstakingly giving up the locket that I had grown sentimental about. Lol
      Then Gale told Tav, "Your kindness truly knows no bounds" and I remember feeling like I just let Tav and I get gaslighted a little bit by Gale. 😂

Not only is he physically abusive, he's also emotionally abusive. Under certain circumstances he's literally Cazador 2.0 -- not sure why people can't see that....

      @@charlotteblossom3408 never romanced him. And it isn’t victim blaming remotely, although he will only bite you again if you ascend him and if you do he will and always will treat you like trash. You are a spawn you are not his equal anymore you are his lesser. Better off just shoving a piece of wood in his head and replacing him with drow dommy mommy. Or just don’t romance him and have the best brother relationship with durge and astarion. Or having an actual meaningful relationship with lazel who straight up is probably the most wholesome relationship next to shadowheart. Even minthara is pretty sweet when you get past her fortress of walls.

      @@retro3856 This is false. He treats you nicely if not ascended and on a romance route you get the opportunity to feed him your blood even if you tell him he can feed on enemies. (Or at least that's what happened to me)
      Though obviously this can't turn you into a vampire unless you ascend him (which turns him into the worst version of himself and a copy of his abuser so of course he'd be a dick to you what did you expect?) but being a spawn sucks anyway (pun intended).
      If you romance an unascended Astarion and don't be a dick to him the experience is rather pleasant. Though bittersweet, because he'll lose his immunity to sunlight. In the epilogue he says he'd understand if you don't wanna spend your entire life in the dark. (My character happened to be a Drow so they didn't care lmao)

    I agree on the girls who are into horoscopes thing. They're all bad news. I've never met a girl who was into horoscopes who didn't low-key (or high-key) treat it like a new way to discriminate against people. All of them swear to whatever God they claim to believe in that they're not like that and that they don't do that, and then they turn around and do exactly that. It's like a new form of socially acceptable (even though it shouldn't be) discrimination and it's annoying. Anytime I hear a girl ask me about my horoscope, I nope right out of that conversation, and dodge when they try to ask me when I was born. And sadly, it's a shockingly large portion of women I've met. Wouldn't be caught dead on a date with one of them. Tried it once, never again. Avoid it, boys, it's just not worth it.
