#astarion and shadowheart judging everyone's outfits

More modern BG3 au head cannons! How they would all react to being at a party.

Gale: Goes out of being polite. In his head he pictured dinner party, not loud music and this much dancing. Attempts conversation, goes on tangents about his latest research. Loiters around the food when his friends are off dancing. Either leaves early or is the designated driver (basically me at any event).

Astarion: Stands to one side and judges people's fashion choices, and you stand with him, he will gossip with you. If asked to dance he says no unless it's Tav, than he dances flawlessly. (This is spawn Astarion, Ascended Astarion would be the one hosting, and would not go to someone else's poor excuse for a party)

Shadowheart: Stands with Astarion drinking wine and sharing gossip. Goes to dance after a few drinks, and Gale has to drive her home.

Wyll: Middle of the freaking dance floor all night! Loves it, talks to people, very social and bubbly.

Lae'zel: Her friends made her come. She does not socialize with people. If forced she will display some battle moves that people interpret as dancing.

Karlach: Happy. Just radiating happiness, she sees someone standing alone is with drag either figuratively or literally into the party. No one is going to be left out and not having fun on Karlach's watch.

Halsin: Either Found a cat, followed cat into a quiet area and stays there all night. Or stayed home watching bluey.

Jaheria: Actually has fun once she gets a bit tipsy. Convinced by either Minsc or Wyll to start dancing, and blows everyone's minds with how freaking good she is at it.

Minsc: Hamster pictures all night. Loves to listen to people and share his thoughts, and joins in any games or dancing going on regardless of if he understands the rules.

Durge: Likes corners and likes to lurk in them. Is very nice when you talk to them, but then they say the strangest things unprompted like you spill wine on your outfit, "Oh, just use this! I get's out waaay worse things then red wine. Haha" And just pulls a spray bottle of homemade stain treater from their bag. Likes to say intrusive thoughts out loud, "Do you ever wonder what would happen if you fell and busted your head on the table? Like who would care? Who would help?"

tbh I can’t see a romance between shadowheart and astarion. i see them as the queer besties judging everyone’s outfit choices behind their backs
