the thing about indie perfume descriptions is that every single of one of them sounds like it should end with "roll initiative"

[utilitycaster]

"One breath and you are at the hive’s threshold, where smoke, wax, and honey conspire into alchemy. A fragrance of sun-baked wood and warm beeswax, buttery, gold, and dense with the ghost of a hundred flowers. The bees’ own musk rises in the air, intimate and unmistakably alive. Honey follows in a deep glow that transcends simple sweetness. Soft puffs of smoke curl in, dry and calming, turning the air velvety and strange. Roll initiative."

being a bg3 fan is so annoying because on one hand astarion's companion story really is that good and i actually do really like him as a character and especially as a nuanced portrayal of an abuse survivor using questionable-at-best coping mechanisms to deal with his trauma. but on the other hand oh my god stop talking about him. please. please stop talking about him. at some point It Simply Gets To A Point.

everyone in wyll ravengard's life is perpetually trying to steer him towards the path of a greek tragedy protagonist and he's hanging onto his morality with everything he has and he was exiled by his own father for doing everything right and he's spent seven years unable to go home with only the woman who ruined his life for company and THAT'S not a good enough hook for a prequel novel? you're doing one about astarion first?? astarion the companion who's personal story barely even overlaps with the main plot???? sorry i know the news about the prequel novel is months old atp im just perpetually in shambles

[thegreatyin]

i'll be the first to admit that wyll didn't start out as my favorite companion but with every passing day i grow more vocal about him. three years and multiple huge post-launch patches and the amount of content he has is still multiple hours behind every other origin character. we've had Every Opportunity to throw him bones. a dedicated prequel would've been so perfect for him. and you're ignoring his backstory for the guy who's Pivotal Life Moment is spending 200 years being depressingly tortured without end. every wyll fan should start killing and every bg3 player should become a wyll fan NOW!!!!!!!!

[thegreatyin]

no yeah exactly. like don't get me wrong. im saying this as a guy who also genuinely loves all the companions. i think all of them are worthwhile additions to bg3's story and every single one of them elevate its themes in interesting and fun ways and im thankful we're still getting anything bg3 related in the year of our lord 2026. astarion really does deserve all the hype he gets. but man it really stings when he gets that hype at the expense of other characters who could use this opportunity way more than him

I bet it feels good as fuck to be a ghoul and have your head roll off your body and you walk over and pick it up and put it back on your head

secretary birds look pretty normal but for some reason people have collectively decided to photograph them like they're [takes a moment to find an acceptable way to say this] women

Getting dumped really puts children's cartoon villains into perspective. Like dude you're SO right, love and caring ARE disgusting and we SHOULD cast a spell to drain all human emotion into your amulet.

Friend breakups are how you get lines like "Your friends? You think your friends are coming to save you? Don't make me laugh."
