Sing, Muse! (yet another raunchy BG3 fic from me)

The post-Absolute reunion party is a joyous occasion, and Kestrel and Halsin know exactly how to celebrate: seducing the bard.

(happy kinktober this is the most shameless thing I've ever written and I hope you all love it so so much)

Round 1 — Match 36 / 77 — Nettie vs. Milil

Nettie is a dwarven druid in the Circle of the Emerald Grove in Act One. Nettie is a student under First Druid Halsin. In his absence, she is the primary healer in the Emerald Grove.

"i think nettie gets unfairly dunked on because people act like she’s being evil, and it’s more like… she’s living in a grove that’s already on the edge, everyone’s stressed, there’s goblins outside, halsin is missing, and suddenly you show up with the single worst piece of information a healer can hear (“there’s a mind flayer parasite in my head”). she’s not doing this because she’s power tripping, she’s doing it because she’s terrified of what you could become in the middle of their home. and the part that sticks with me is how it can go a bunch of ways—if you lie, she panics harder and tries to dose you; if you’re straight with her, she still can’t fix it, but she gives you that awful “last resort” option and makes you swear. it’s such a believable little moment of “good intentions + fear + limited resources” colliding. also, bonus: if you handle it without murdering her, it makes the grove feel more real to me - like there are people here trying to do medicine and harm reduction while everyone else is arguing about rites and borders. nettie’s just… in the trenches."

vs.

Milil is a divine entity encountered in the Epilogue. He is a dour bard who plays a Lute and supplements his music with a band of spiritual instruments.

"i’m obsessed with the idea that milil is a whole deity and still got basically yoinked into the function by withers like “you owe me.” and he’s just there, doing his divine performance, with the floating spirit instruments backing him up like a magical one-man band, and he looks SO over it?? not in a “i hate music” way, in a “i’m an ancient entity and i cannot believe this is how my evening is going” way. it’s the most “gods are real but they’re still employees” moment in the entire game."

Vote!

This took me three days to finish and I just about lost my mind. I really like the idea of Aiden exploring his faith/religion and eventually doing so alongside Gale. Also he has his own cat alongside Tara, who is just my irl cat Bowser.

Transcript and close ups will be below the cut!

"To follow a God is to devote your life to them for a better afterlife. What happens to the Godless, then, is less than ideal."

"Then the question becomes... What God is worthy of my devotion, my life?"

"Some are easy for me to rule out"

"Shar, a deity taking advantage of sadness and grief to manipulate her followers, to make escape impossible,"

"and I fucking hate the 'mother of all magic' Mystra."

"I want to be with Gale in this life and the next, though. I'll talk to him about researching more Gods with me. His faith in Mystra has wavered- I'm happy to see him recognize his own worth. Either way he would likely enjoy the learning."

"Some of the deities aren't so bad..."

"Ilmater, for example. Perseverance through suffering, helping others during hard times. That means something to me. I understand it."

"Of course the Dragon God of Justice, Bahamut, speaks to me too."

"There's Bahamut's humanoid counterpart, Tyr, the Maimed God of Justice."

"or Selûne, who's daughter brought light back to the shadow-cursed lands."

"Lathander, who's blood empowered a mace we used during our journey to defeating the brain. (The mace should have been a morningstar though.*)"

"If Milil hadn't been ejected from the pantheon this decision would be simpler. Musical prayer sounds right up my alley."

"I can think about death tomorrow, today is simply about living."

* Its a mace. right. it's classified as that in the game but they're really similar things

Bowser, by the way

Am I the only one out here lusting after Milil?? You tell that cutie you know his name and he looks at you like he’s ready & willing to stick his flute into whatever orifice you want

Hello, Will. I hope you're doing well! I was too shy to write you a direct message, so I decided to send here a small gift from a humble artist in my person.😄 Thanks to these characters, I discovered such a wonderful and talented actor like you. Keep up the good work!❤

I'm sorry, WHAT!?

You have a) no right to be this talented, and b) no right to make me feel so loved on a Sunday evening.

Thank you Nika. I hope you have a wonderful week. X
