#thoughts about media
#bg3 spoilers
#(in tags- not the post)
#astarion’s...performance. early act 3 lives in my mind rent free
#it’s delightfully dramatic. but it also tells you a LOT about him.
#that’s one thing I truly and honestly REALLY love about astarion’s character.
#he’s charismatic in his own way- his dramatics are silly and charming.
#and to some- they may be distracting. which is somewhat the point.
#I say somewhat because I don’t think ALL of his drama is meant to be a distraction/performance.
#he’s genuinely Like That.
#but in this case it at least partially is.
#to cover up his fear. because it’s very clear the driving force behind everything astarion does is fear and self-preservation.
#he’s more honest with you here. he tells you outright that what cazador did was wrong because he did it to astarion himself.
#not because cazador’s actions are objectively wrong no matter who the victim is. and that all the other spawn suffered too.
#not that astarion knows about the 7k living spawn in cazador’s basement though. just his own siblings.
#which he views as necessary sacrifice for his own freedom.
#which again. says sooo much about him.
#I won’t say he only cares about himself at this point anymore though. it’s clear he DOES truthfully love tav.
#and he does care about the other companions too. his reactions to their individual predicaments suggest as much.
#and he does care for yenna- even if complains that there’s no room in the camp for any more ‘mangy strays’
#*cough cough* pot and kettle. anyways. he does approve of you helping her and is upset if she is kidnapped by orin.
#but all that. the way he speaks of his siblings. the way he speaks of yenna. the way he still thinks he needs cazador’s power...
#he thinks so little of himself. even if he acts like the world revolves around him and his suffering.
#deep down- he still believes everything cazador’s literally beat and cut into him.
#which makes the moment where he tells cazador that he’s so much more than what cazador did to him- so much more satisfying and rewarding.
