Unironically, this is why I like to pair Durge with Shadowheart. They're just so damn similar. Spoilers, if you haven't beat the game. They both serve a dark god trying to use them to their own ends against their nature (if you play redemption Durge) Shadowheart would also be awake through the night for prayers, and I imagine Durge would stay up to exhaust himself so he can't possibly bring harm to his friends. They also both need to make a major sacrifice against their own dark god to ever truly be free from them, and free to forge their own path.
@@adrianrandom3448 Agreed, most romancable companions in BG 3 have something to tie in with Durge, something that makes them understand each other better or something else.

@@TamTroll that is the character I gravitated to first. I can admit out of all potential choices, I saw him and went "Yep I want that" immediately and never looked back.
Eventually, Astarion came to the logical conclusion that he'd have the easiest time sleeping next to the GOAT Halsin, who is unironically sleeping like a log outside wildshaped as a bear. He never slept more soundly.
And that's when he discovered to his horror that Halsin is a cuddler. Not only could Astarion not sleep, he couldn't even move, pinned underneath the arm of a literal bear
If you go a night with Durge and the worst thing he did was scream you got off lightly cause chances are he just saved your life from the intrusive thoughts of his dad’s murderboner.
This goes even more true if you romance Astarion as a Durge and the butler appears to tell you, you have to kill the one you hold most dear due to not killing Isobel. Who was just at the back of this conversation, chilling with Aylin with me 😂
He told my bard he wanted a romance the way us bards tell them. I was like, "Sir, it's a fantasy for entertainment. I'm not doing that Disney princess shit," and immediately assured Astarion that yes, I would be sticking with him. Keep your toxic purity culture to yourself, Wyll.
@@tiph3802 Wyll lost me when he proposed to my friend's Tav the same day that we killed Gortash. Sir, you claim to care about Karlach, who's working through some sh*t right now, and you've got nothing better to do than to make this evening about yourself?! That's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family! Dishonor on you, dishonor on your father, dishonor on your dead mom! He lost me even more when he said the 7000 spawn deserved a chance, because gods forbid Astarion did the responsible thing for once in his unlife, even if it's not the easy choice.
Best part is that since elves only meditate for 4 hours, this could be canon. While everyone's still sleeping Astarion, Halsin, and Minthara would just be sitting wide awake and wondering what they did to deserve this.
I love how they all fit so well Especially durge, he's the biggest compared to everyone (except for Halsin), and he'd probably scream in his sleep too with all the horrors he's been through.
It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize: of course Astarion doesn't sleep. I know everyone else has already said it, but it didn't hit me until I saw his hands in the trance position.
Pretty sure both Wyll and Gale snore cause they're human and I'm certain elves can't. Boy howdy I hear 'em from across camp when they aren't in the party.
fun fact, in DnD elves don't sleep! they "trance" instead, which is a sort of meditative state, and only need to do that for half as long as a non-elf would need to sleep to get a full rest.
Meanwhile, in the other room, Lae’zel and Shadowheart were up half the night arguing because one or the other of them shifted positions and very slightly infringed on the other one’s side of the bed, only for them to eventually wear themselves out, fall asleep, and wake up snuggling. Karlach had to sleep in the bathtub, both to get away from Shadowheart and Lae’zel’s squabbling and to minimize the damage she’d do if she happened to combust in her sleep.
This is just canon as far as I'm concerned. Astarion just does not sleep, he tries to do his elven reverie meditation stuff after hunting/sucking Durge and is just subjected to this skull numbing choir of sleeping problems. Doesn't even touch on the ladies, because I'm sure they'd also have their share of *problems*. Lae'zel: Issues with her circadian rhythm on account of not being from "this grassy pebble". She stays up way later than she should, and needs to be kicked awake in the morning. Perpetually runs on 4-5 hours of sleep. Shadowheart: Pounds down the wine, sleeps like absolute shit, and wakes up with a red wine hangover. Will she stop? No. Karlach: Sleep talker, but not the fun kind. She prolly just mumbles incoherently. Is the most tolerable for Astarion.
karlach might also be a sleep hugger (hence the cute lttle plushy in her camp) ... which is TERRIFYING if a) she's on fucking fire half the time and b) you're a vampire
So I had the no party limit mod installed and while resting it bugged sometimes and showed me the characters while they slept/snored. I could click on their portraits and they’d say nothing. Except Karlach. Karlach said some nightmare fuel shit. I mean, she was probably having nightmares from her time in the hells
You have no idea how this fits too well and I think the creator knows it too. Gale with the orb in his chest, Wyll with his connection to his patron, and Durge with his bloody dreams.
i can get behind wyll moaning in his sleep honestly. i've heard audio compilations of the companions snoring and most of them make some questionable noises.
if you romance gale, you will hear banters where the other characters mention that he talks in his sleeps... and he is confident that whatever he talks about is educational so people should listen to his sleep talks also... halsin... he transformed into a bear when he lost focus during sexy times... i assume he lost focus as well when he sleeps (extra: this is also the reason why there is a theory where halsin is not an elf druid that wildshape into a bear, but a bear druid that wildhshape into an elf... additional supporting information includes his "wildshape: cave bear" skill is unique, from the part that its a cave bear while normal wild shape is just bear, and that this is a bonus action while normal wildshape is an action, and finally he has this skills from lvl1 (normal druid gets wildshapes at lvl 2))
Me, cozying up to the most final boss I could find and thinking I’ll have the best sleep of my life by his side, only to find out that he gets the night screams, too, and that we both have to go to therapy. We’ll fix this together, if it’s the last thing I do, big man ❤
I imagine Shadowheart’s the sleepwalker; since she’s a half-elf. Elves don’t sleep, but humans do, so a half-elf would probably sleep, but be extra prone to sleepwalking, sleeptalking, and/or randomly waking up in the middle of the night.
Tag yourself!! Im Gale in this, had 2 nights in my life where the moment i fell asleep my brain forgot to breathe and i woke up GASPING for air like my life depended on it haha. Brains are funny.
The night terrors for the Dark Urge is so fucking accurate Im crying

I can fully believe Gale would have sleep apnea and die several times a night temporarily because he's got a big fucking orb in his chest.
Yeah the orb eats his magic so maybe he dies temporarily because he's asleep and not on his guard
I can imagine Tav constantly trying to wake him up before he blows himself up 🤣

He feels canon honestly
@@patyluna821If we ever get a BG4, I feel like he’ll be the avatar character that carries over given how important his role in the 3rd game is.
In her videos the Narrator has dubbed him Gary, and I approve of this.

💥 (the cannon exploded)
Head cannon accepted
They are not large-bore artillery - they're people!
The delivery on Durge, with "I don't know what he's scared of - because he's bigger than everything," had me cackling.
"What are your nightmares about"
Durge: Has internal montage of all the things he did in his past. ".....I can never recall."
That's the thing, Astarion: he's scared BECAUSE he's bigger than everything.
It’s cannon now, Durge doesn’t say “good night sweet dreams”.
He now says “sweet terrors, rest well”
that's actually perfect I'm going to start using that thank you
It's Durge, it's not "rest well", it's "rest okay".
@@emeralddragon2980 "I hope I haven't killed you come morning."

Bro got 4 Inspirations that night
If not for the fact you meet most of the companions at level 1, I bet some of them would be multiclassed, and Astarion would be Rogue/Bard
Eventually, Astarion came to the logical conclusion that he'd have the easiest time sleeping next to the GOAT Halsin, who is unironically sleeping like a log outside wildshaped as a bear. He never slept more soundly.
The first time I read this, I thought you meant he was wildshaped into a goat. Then I read "wildshaped as a bear" and went "Hold up-"

He slept on Halsin
Nah, UNDER. Best bear hugs. ❤️
And that's when he discovered to his horror that Halsin is a cuddler. Not only could Astarion not sleep, he couldn't even move, pinned underneath the arm of a literal bear
Minsc is sleepwalking, and fights with the air, trying to hit whatever is scaring Durge
Everytime Durge screams, Minsc springs out of bed with the sword he definitely sleeps with and starts slicing the air 😂
And winning

Nah man, I would not be surprised if Wyll snored like a tunneling bulette.
someone on tumblr extracted the snoring sound files and wyll is definitely a loud snorer
Wyll is just to perfekt! he needs to have at least on anoying Flaw.

I love how they all fit so well
Especially durge, he's the biggest compared to everyone (except for Halsin), and he'd probably scream in his sleep too with all the horrors he's been through.
Durge is either screaming in his sleep or cackling, and Astarion doesn't know which one is worse

Elves don't sleep, so Astarion having insomnia makes sense.
Meanwhile Withers is quietly awake, observing the party, contemplating, or reading. He slept long enough that he doesn't need to again for a while.

As someone with all these sleeping disorders, there is a reason I live alone.

Gale eats your magical items in his sleep.
Karlach, Lae’zel, and Shadwoheart having a “sleepover” in their own tent is def cannon
if they all didnt make noises Id want to see what sleeping with 3 large guys is like
OMG! This is pure gold
we need to get gale a Fantasy Cpap
Fun fact, every character in the game (except shadowheart) has audio files for their snoring, and they're all fucking ridiculous.
I was not expecting it, but this was the Josh Johnson x BG3 crossover I never knew I needed. Great stuff, thank you!
God this is so incredibly on brand for all the characters, I love this so much
Josh Johnson x Baldurs gate 3. Thank you!

I love that. Josh has got some good ones, a lot of good ones.
I would stand some screaming if it meant I'd be able to sleep with Dragonborn Durge ;)
Then you'd be the one screaming at that point, not Durge ;)
i must have watched this like 30 times already- i love it so much
What a strange crossover... I like it!
NOTHING COULD HAVE PREPARED ME FOR THE ENDING PUNCHLINE
I love you this is so amazing lol
Coming across this again while suffering through my own insomnia 😂
i'm surprised wyll can even sleep in the first place with those big ass horns
This is hilarious 🤣 also love Josh Johnson
This is the best video of all time 😂😂😂😂
love how you picked gale who is one of the smallest companions
If I had a penny for the amount of times I fell out of my chair, I would have at least a dollar
