Julian: [Leaning over the counter] Hey beautiful, come here often?
MC: Is this the part where I remind you we’ve been married for 6 years or do I play along?
Julian: Play along!
MC: Alright. Sorry, I’m not interested, I’m married.

Silly question maybe but self publishing stuff confuses me. I was just wondering what you did for the barcodes on your book. Is it one you paid for or did you just go with the one Amazon gives you? Sorry if this was random! I just see you as self-pub goals so I was wondering.
DO NOT BUY BARCODES !!! DO NOT BUY BARCODES!!!!!!!!!!
So when you're setting up to self-publish, youre going to need an ISBN. If you're in the US, you need to buy these (from Bowker.com typically), or you can get a free one from your publishing platform — Amazon KDP, Draft2Digital, Ingram, or any of the others.
(The only issue with the free ISBNS that you get Locked to this printer, so if you get an Amazon ISBN, then you can only sell your book through Amazon or through Amazon's "expanded distribution") (I do not recommend Amazon's expanded distribution, really).
When you set up the cover and input the ISBN, the platform will generate the barcode and attach it.
For ex., here's me inputting the ISBN for (the old) Angels Before Man and then uploading the cover. Because I didn't check the box, it generated and added the bar code for me.
Something you should take into account when you get/make a cover is actually that the barcode is going to be slapped on and could potentially cover some lettering.
Before anything, you should generate a template for the cover using the cover generator that the platform you're using provides. If you're working with an artist, I really recommend sending this file to them, as well. This is how it looks:
I hope this is helpful! But yes, do not buy bar codes. Your ISBN, whether its free or not, will generate the bar for you. Good luck!!!!

We all know at this point that Astarion's name means "little star".
But Larian decided that they wanted to go all in with the details and they delivered!
The flower you can place on his tomb in the final romance scene (which I think is such a cute and tender gesture and I love his reaction to it), seems to be an Ornithogalum umbellatum, a star-shaped white flower with six petals. Among the plant's many common names, there are summer snowflake, starflower, and star-of-Bethlehem.
Moreover, in the language of flowers, its meanings are related to trauma, mourning, and welcoming pain without repressing it.
According to Doctor Edward Bach (1886 – 1936), these flowers are "For those who find themselves in a state of great anguish due to situations that, in a given period, have caused so much unhappiness", and can be used to help with the aftermath of a trauma, the alleviation of pain and the mourning process.

Can't stop thinking about that scene in twilight where Bella was dying and in desperation Edward starts biting her, infecting her with his blood in hopes that she'll wake up alive. THAT BUT WITH ASTARION, LIKE YOU'RE ON THE BRINK OF DEATH AND HE DOES THE ONE THING HE COULD THINK OF TO SAVE YOU WHICH WAS MAKE YOU A VAMPIRE. Astarion brain rot is no joke 😭 may or may not write this into a fanfic.
