Hey so like I know I asked recently, so you can just ignore this if you wish to– but could you possibly write about the BG3 companions with a reader who likes being spoiled but not in the traditionally materialistic sense? Like, think for example: reader that enjoys being fed by hand, likes having their hair played with, stuff like that. I know I asked something recently so you can put this on the back-burner until you feel like it but I'm in love with how you write Minthara so I'm back begging for more... Thank you if you do write this, though!!!! (´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`) (Again, I beg like the veggies beggar in all of begdom that Minthara is included in this)
Hiiii, sorry for the late response, it's been hectic, but here you go!
BG3 romanceables x affectionate/spoiled reader
warnings: Trauma mentions (Gale, Astarion), mentions of injuries/overexertion (Lae'zel, Shadowheart)
“What do you mean you want to cuddle? Have you gone mad, you K’chakhi!?” Lae’zel is very blunt and standoffish, so I doubt she will meet your needs at first, but as you both get closer, she will run her hands through your hair and scalp, looking for clumps of dirt and blood to clean out of it, or she’ll occasionally give you massages. Still, she most definitely keeps a hand on you at all times, from a hand on your waist to holding your hand she’ll get more touchy, I could see her letting you cuddle after long days and intimate sessions, but she’ll still be hesitant, she’ll carry you if you complaint about foot pain, last of all, DO NOT think about stealing food off her plate she will smite you down, that’s her drawing point. “K’chakhi” she mutters as she hauls you over her shoulder, you let out a weak protest but she ignores it carrying you back to camp, “What was that attack plan hm?” She scoffs but she secretly enjoys being able to hold you like this and that you need her.
“Come here, soldier, you look like you need a hug.” I think it depends on whether you have cooled her infernal engine down, but she’ll dote on you and spoil you, playing with your hair, holding hands, smooches on the forehead, hand, cheek, cuddling, whatever it is you desire, she’ll try to fulfill. She’ll feed you as much of her food as you’ll take just to make sure you’re fed properly. Her hands find your waist as she kisses you her hands warm against your skin as she warms you up, her lips slowly pull away as she tugs you to her tent, she lies down on top of you like a weighted blanket, her kisses continuing to your cheeks, forehead, neck, anywhere. “There you go soldier all toasty.”
“You want me to braid your hair like mine? I’m flattered.” Immediately, yes, she’ll spoil you, just don’t be too obvious about it, wouldn’t want to seem too eager. She’ll put braids in your hair, whether it’s long or short, if you request it. I can see her being touchy, holding your hand, or wrapping her arms around your waist. She is most definitely a cuddler, just she’ll probably pretend she doesn’t enjoy it, but the blush on her cheeks says otherwise. She’ll give a lot of kisses in private and spoil you with affection in the silence of her tent, she’ll let you try her food and spoon-feed you, especially when you get hurt she’ll be doing everything and won’t let you lift a finger. “Stop moving, you’re gonna make it worse.” She scolds, she gently pushes you back down so you don’t injure yourself further, she props your head up with her hand and helps you take a sip of water before she brushes sweat off your forehead before pressing her lips to it helping you relax.
“Yes, my love, how may I please you?” She’s a little awkward at first, it’s out of her culture to be so kind to your lover and kin, but I can see her being shy about it at times. When she does get used to it, she’ll help you with your armor, massage your muscles, feed you when you’re tired, and if you ask nicely, she’ll hold your hand. LOTS of kisses in private, but she’ll cater to your needs in publi,c depending on who’s around you all, if it’s the party she’ll openly kiss you, play with your hair, and be affectionate but if it’s somewhere not so safe she’ll keep it to hand holding, she needs to appear strong after all. “Look at you, you’re dragging dirt around, come here let me clean you.” She says patting the wooden tub she had filled with warm water from the pot over the fire, she watches as you slowly undress and step into the water, she grabs the rag and dips it in the water before gently massaging the water off your body, her off hand and your’s intertwining as she pulls you into a soft kiss.
“Good morning, beautiful, any sweet demands?” Depends on where your relationship is, if it’s still at the point he’s playing you he’ll act it up and not care much, just wants to make sure his hide will survive, but if you are established and stable he’ll probably ask the same in return, lot’s of hand holding, kisses, he’ll play with your hair if you play with his, he’ll help dress you, clean you, feed you, if you do the same in return, he’ll probably cuddle a lot and if anything be more needy for them than you are because he was deprived of affection and true compassion for two centuries, I think he would over all appreciate the affection as long as you are willing to reciprocate. “Darling?” He asks as you both wake up to the sun warming his tent, his hand slowly running through your hair as you trace patterns into his arm, he presses a fang-y smile to your forehead as you nuzzle into his chest kissing the skin peaking out of his collar.
“Anything I can do for you? - Consider it enthusiastically done.” Again, super affectionate, but he’s probably more doting in a more verbal way, compliments, flirting, whatnot, but he’s still touchy, kisses, hugs, cuddles, sharing snacks, he’d probably like you to touch his hair more, but he’ll try to bow down and meet all of your desires if he can, especially because you’re more reasonable than a certain someone, he would most definitely pamper a lot as well, even in ways you didn’t know about. He slowly massages your back in bed, your back to him while he has his face buried in your neck whispering sweet nothings and kissing behind your ear between each word “You” kiss “Are” kiss “My” kiss “Whole” kiss “World.”
“Speak to me, lover.” Another sweetheart, massage king, lots of kisses, perhaps too many even, he’ll hover over you ready for your next request, will snuggle you in either form, hand feeds you honey/food, you’re like a deity to him, he practically worships you, will style your hair and make you feel like royalty, never-ending hugs, carries you when your feet get sore, sweet talking/compliments 24/7 “You’re so sweet I could put you in my tea” shit like that. He’ll be covered in dirt, sweat, and whatnot while he sits beside you with a plate of honey, slowly feeding it to you until you’re full, then he’ll kiss your cheek and cuddle you into your food coma “Sleep well my dear.”
“Chivalry isn’t dead while I’m here.” (My favorite to torture in my play-throughs, he elicits something feral in me.) He will share his food, kisses, cuddles the whole nine yards, he’s our god of chivalry, but what I think he is the best at when it comes to your needs is he’ll do it so sincerely and without expectation of something returned, he’ll drop what he’s doing to give you kisses and his attention is on you when you demand it, he’ll cuddle you with your back on his chest and sitting between his legs while he mutli tasks, but his lips will brush over your cheek every so often, or he’ll come up and massage/touch you when you look like you need some preening, he’ll know your needs before you do because of how attentive he is, he takes pleasure from spoiling you and it energizes him. “Look at those birds over there.” He points out as he keeps you pressed against his chest, your head tilts and you see two cranes dancing below the cliff your party is sleeping on, his arms return to your waist as he rests his chin on yours. “They’re beautiful,” you whisper, and he kisses the top of your head in agreement.
