Karlach, seeing Aylin for the first time:

[fermentedrice]

Do you have a favorite NPC from bg3?

Oooh, I don’t think I can choose! My fav would probably be Raphael, but Aylin reduced me to my knees in her 10 seconds of cutscene screentime (sorry i love women…) I haven’t played to the point where the party meets Harleep yet, but from all the fanart I feel like they’d become my favourite real quick too!

Edit: I didn’t know Harleep used they/them!!! thank u random person they’ve become 120% more fuckable now

the homosexual blorbos…

I don't know why, but inspiration always seems to strike me at such inconvenient times... Like when I have a headache/migraine...

So enjoy this little Part 2 of sorts to a post I made like two months ago!

Headache Help

Underfell: feat. Crimson (Sans), Scar (Papyrus, I previously called him Scarlet), & Violet (Reader)

The sound of the front door closing startled you awake but the bony hand on your back helped ground you in the moment again.

"Ugh, Did You Two Seriously Laze Around The Whole Time? I Was Gone For More Than Five Hours!" Scar huffed as he strode over to your spot on the couch.

You hissed and recoiled further into Crimson's arms as the volume of the taller brother's voice sent a painful throb through your head.

Crimson tisked and rubbed soothing circles into your shoulders with his knuckles. "keep it down, will ya bro? sweetheart had a rough night and has had a headache all day."

"Oh." Scar's expression softened and he crouched down to be a bit more on your level. "You Should Have Told Me During Breakfast. I Would Have Helped If I Could, Violet." He smiled and lightly stroked your forehead with his thumb.

"I thought it would go away," you murmured. "It was worse before Crimson started helping..."

The aforementioned skeleton chuckled and leaned over to press a kiss against your cheek. " 's a great excuse to laze around all day with my favorite human..."

"Well... I Suppose I Can Let It Slide This Time," Scar started to say. "But Only Because I Care For Both Of You."

You couldn't help but giggle, although you immediately regretted it. Scar just looked so funny when he tried to act like he was letting you get away with being lazy. It was too bad that even smiling too much hurt right now.

"if ya want to help, why don't ya make her some more tea?" Crimson suggested.

"Fine, So Long As You Make Room On The Couch For Me."

"sure."

You quietly watched Scar disappear into the kitchen. It looked like you wouldn't be getting up anytime soon now that both brothers knew you weren't feeling well. It was a bit embarrassing to be doted over but you had to admit that the extra attention was nice.

Crimson shifted over towards the armrest and set you in the middle of the couch. You knew he was just keeping his end of the deal, but that didn't stop you from letting out a quiet whimper of protest when his arms left you.

He chuckled as he snaked his arm around your waist and nuzzled against your scalp. " 'm not goin' anywhere, sweetheart..." he purred.

You felt your cheeks heat up, especially when he gave your thigh a slight squeeze. While they slightly pressed into your skin, you knew he was being especially careful with his claws so as to not hurt you. It was kind of sweet that a big, scary guy like him could be so gentle.

The Nightmare of Apathy: feat. Nightmare, Baggs, and Aylin

"you seem out of sorts today. what's bothering you?"

You grumbled and forced yourself to raise your head from where you'd been resting it in your arms on the dining table.

"I'm dealing with a headache," you muttered. It was hard to actually look at the doctor for longer than a few seconds without squinting from the light in the room.

Baggs made a tisk sound and rolled his eyelights. "tell me about it... has killer been pestering you as well?"

You rubbed at your eyes with one hand and waved him off with the other. "No, no more than usual..."

"you sure? cause i'll have a few words with him if you want me to. wait... you meant you have an actual headache, right?"

You nodded wordlessly.

His bonebrows pinched together with concern. "oh darling, i'm sorry to hear that. if you can eat, i can get you something for the pain if you like."

"Please...it feels like my head's gonna explode," you hissed.

"Now wouldn't that be a shame~"

You almost jumped at the sound of Nightmare's velvety voice in your ear. When you glanced over your shoulder at him, he pressed a gentle kiss against your forehead.

"I was starting to wonder where you were. Are you alright, dear?" he asked.

You sighed and shook your head. "Sorry, I stayed up too late and now I'm suffering the consequences..."

Baggs made a sound of clearing his throat. "i'm sure Horror wouldn't mind whipping up something for you. i'll go find him and be back in a bit, okay?"

You nodded and went back to burying your face in your arms.

Nightmare pulled out a chair and sat down next to you. "Would you like me to help you feel better?" he asked in a soft voice.

Before you could properly answer, he wrapped his arms around your shoulders in a warm hug. He even added one of his tendrils to the embrace, letting it coil around your waist. He didn't do this very often, but almost instantaneously, you felt the negativity begin to ebb away.

It was kind of handy actually, dating a god who was so attentive to your emotions and could fix things in a matter of moments. Although, it was a good thing that he also knew how to do it subtly, to avoid the numbness that followed whenever he siphoned off your emotions like this.

Hi, I'm Barbie!

I can't remember much of my life before now, but that's okay! I made a whole bunch of new friends, and they're here to help me find out who I am. Murdering with friends is so much fun!

I have mods and cannot be stopped. Here's my newest take on our Origin Companions:

[funeralprocessor]

I've said my piece about Halsin but he's still better than Jaheira and Minsc. Like it's neat seeing them but I didn't need them as party members when there are so many characters that would have been so much better. Dame Aylin, Isobel, Sazza, Alfira, maybe like Khaga if she gets demoted? Maybe Nere or Aradin. It just feels like there are a lot of characters that would fit way more organically and would be more interesting than the bg fan service duo

[jahiera]

I kind of want to just restart emrys so I can play her again more perfectly this time... kill even MORE fiends and such. but also I speedran grymforge a bit & the thing is that. emrys rolls up to moonrise towers already have a deep-seated and intense paladin-specific beef with ketheric. babygirl heard that he was 1. an evil paladin 2. broke his paladin vow to TWO gods prior 3. was like That and decided Actually, I'm going to project All of my own personal issues and insecurities onto you. And then I'm going to kill you. and then she still offered to spare him. so I need the buildup to that from grymforge. you see.

Daughter of the moon

[vvanessaives]

btw friends i have a question: what's the order for the main quests in the shadow cursed lands? should i go first to moonrise and then to find the nightsong or find the nightsong and then moonrise i have no idea

[5mcsinatrenchcoat]

I am taking back everything I said about Aylin giving Vice a worried side-eye when her sleep-deprived ass starts looking kinda Ketheric-ish over Karlach dying.

I've just seen what happens if Aylin gets captured in Act 3 and Isobel dies trying to save her.

I'm now sufficiently convinced that if Vice honestly told her "You know I think if she dies I might go full apeshit on this world" Aylin would say "Yeah I get that" with her full chest.

[optiwashere]

YO!!!!!

I was cowering SCRAPING through the Aylin x Isobel tag on AO3 and struck GOLD when I found your kinktober fics and subsequently the rest of your fanfiction.

No to be so honest........I was an Astarion girlie🧛‍♀️🩸💉and I've never played the game thinking Shadowheart was just goth girl bait

But after 2 almost all nighters with eyes TAPED OPEN WITH GLEE I can safely say I am ride and die for Shadowheart. RIDE AND DIE!!!!!

Full 180

That's so super flattering, anon! 💜 Thank you so much! Shadowheart at first blush is pretty much goth girl bait, but she's so much more and that's what makes her compelling. She's a secret sad girl cottagecore fantasy under the eyeliner. So strong yet more fragile than she cares to admit.

I'm super flattered to hear you were reading my fics so hardcore!!! And that it all came from looking for Aylin/Isobel stories, oh my heart. That's even better.

And I appreciate the honesty, though there's nothing wrong with having faves. Clearly I've got a favorite lmao.

Plus, I love Astarion in the game and really enjoyed his story. It's just not a character I personally have interest in expanding upon in fics too much.

Anywho.

Loved to hear from you!! Thanks for these sweet words. I hope you'll enjoy some of the fun that's to come soon... very soon!

[maegalkarven]

Me, giving June more psychological damage: but what if you weren't enough for TWO gods? What if you were a failed chosen of both Bhaal and Selûne? Too good to the one, too corrupted to the other. What if at the end of the lane all gods abandoned you and withdrew their powers?

What if the cost of your freedom was being alone?

[deer-with-a-stick]

on one hand, if larian gave us raw rules for revivify/raise dead, you could do things like save Duke Ravengard without Mizora (ignore her, go to Iron Throne where he's going to be dead for some stupid reason, cast Raise Dead with a diamonds and boom. you can't tell me that he's been dead for more than 10 days when you find him) or just revive random NPCs for fun but on the other hand dear god the chaos

[slverblood]

looking at the dialogue for summoning Aylin in the final battle. first off —

Summoning Dame Aylin (Nightsong, but don't call her that)

Correct. Second off, Jaheira and Minsc have the best ones.

Jaheira: Dame Aylin - there are some here who don't yet fear your name! Minsc: DAME AYLIN! WE HAVE NEED OF HEAVEN'S BOOT!

[lixbf]
