Just had like the biggest brain realization about Astarion bear with me I think I'm onto something here. Spoilers ahead for those who don't know about his "condition" or haven't heard about his tragic backstory™
I think people generally overlook the bite scene in favor of focusing on how it reveals Astarion being a vampire, how it can benefit the player if you're trying to romance him, or find an easy way to get him out of your party. I would like to note that there’s nothing wrong with this response! I did the same in my play through because I already knew he was a vampire due to spoilers. I just saw the scene as Astarion looking for his equivalent of a sandwich when it happened.
But why does Astarion bite Tav of all people?
The obvious answer is because Tav's the protagonist. Any important character scenes will happen to or involve them because they're the player character. It's the nature of how RPG stories are told. However, Larian Studios has put a lot of thought into this game, so why not dig a bit deeper?
Assuming Tav has everyone in their camp when this scene is triggered, Lae'zel and Shadowheart are off the menu purely because if things go wrong they'd immediately kill Astarion. Not good! If things go wrong with Karlach he could possibly smooth talk his way out of it. After all, she's a very kind person who goes out of her way to help people. But she's also twice his size and could snap him like a twig, which is not a risk worth taking.
Wyll isn't nearly as much of a threat as the other three, if it came down to it, Astarion could probably take him in a fight. The main problem here is that Wyll happens to have a habit of killing monsters, which would make talking things out really difficult. Astarion's relied on skills like persuasion for the past 2 centuries so he'd probably want to have his best skills be viable options if things go awry. Halsin, much like Karlach, is twice his size and could kill him with ease. Hard pass on that! This leaves Gale as the last, and really only, viable option. I mean look at him, he's frail as hell, always having the lowest HP in the party, and his weapon is a stick. Worst thing that could happen to Astarion is a bonk on the head.
So then why Tav? Why are they the one Astarion bites?
Now Tavs come in a lot of varieties. The player could be doing a Dark Urge run, they could be playing as the embodiment of pure evil, the kindest soul that is second only to Jesus, or somewhere in between. However, the one thing that unites them all is their power. They're the leader of the party and the others (to varying degrees) respect them. Tav is the one that chooses where the party goes, who they help, who they kill, and even how they'll have the tadpoles removed. In a way, Tav controls the party.
Remind you of something that Astarion openly talks about wanting?
For two centuries Astarion hasn't had autonomy, respect, freedom, resources, or control. What he's learned from those centuries is that power always gets you what you want. If you want freedom you need the power to control others. So while biting Gale would be the easy answer, it doesn't have the perk that biting Tav does.
If Tav wakes up during his biting attempt, Astarion could smooth talk his way out of it. If things go okay and Astarion gets to keep his head, he'll have gained more of Tav's trust. This in turn would give Astarion greater power over them as they'd be easier to manipulate, which in turn gives him more control over the others. If he ends up killing Tav then that technically would open up a power vacuum in the party. Whoever fills it would have all the power and control that Tav has. I don't think any of the other characters would let that happen though. Astarion's the person who you don't want to be the leader because he's clearly performing this role for his own self-centered reasons. Also seeing as this scene generally happens early in the game, nobody likes him enough to just let him become the leader.
Now if Tav lets Astarion bite them things get more interesting. It's a possibility that never occurred to him, but he isn't going to turn it down. First of all, it establishes Tav as an easy food source. Astarion has a consenting snack that in the future, might let him bite again. If that happens then Astarion's food source becomes far more reliable and surviving becomes significantly easier. Tav's consent also reveals how much they trust Astarion. From his perspective Tav's shown too much of their hand. Astarion's simple plan to manipulate Tav for the sake of his security has become child's play at this point.
All this being said having Astarion choose to bite Tav over Gale reveals so much about his character. While Gale is the safest choice to make, Tav's position of leadership is what entices Astarion to bite them over Gale. After experiencing two hundred years of mental and physical abuse, Astarion values power so much he'd be willing to risk his ability to not become a mind flare, and his life, in order to gain it. All because this is what he learned from being Cazador's slave for 200 years.

Please bring out the Jotaro loving chubby bodies 💳💥💥💳💥💥💥💳💥
that will be 2 horny tokens, thank you for your purchase!
Jotaro Kujo + Chubby! S/O Headcanons
sfw
Joot usually doesn't go for physical attraction because it is just that hard to worm into his heart emotionally BUT:
He searches for warmth and comfort, especially after sdc because TRAUMA, and he find that people with chubbier bodies feel a lot warmer and give him comfort to hold - basically, you're a human teddy bear to him
He likes feeling how soft you are, in contrast to his calloused fingers and hard (and very muscular) body.
You may come to realize that you've also become his stress ball whenever he's next to you and doesn't realize he grabs at the inside of your thigh and starts squeezing repeatedly while doing something else
I wholeheartedly believe that Jotaro is an ass and thighs man, so he won't listen to you when you tell him that you're too heavy for a piggyback ride or something. He's strong, he picks you up faster than you can blink and now you're on his shoulders. As he walks around, he's just living the dream of feeling those soft thighs squished beside his head.
He likes it when you lay on top of him to sleep, its like a weighted blanket except he can kiss it
When y'all sleep, he affectionately puts a hand on your ass
He also likes laying on top of you, you're a squishy mattress and he'll snuggle his face into your chest as he's dead asleep
He holds tha thigh for comfort without realizing it: at the dinner table? Thigh. In a car? Thigh. Visiting your parents' house? Thigh. Wanting sex? T H I G H
Think you're going out wearing them shorts or the skirt that show off the ass and thighs? Not without him.
Gives you the back hugs, his hands sometimes reach around to give your tummy a small squish. He just thinks its cute
Think you look fat in that outfit? Joot doesn't.
"I don't know, Jotaro-" "I don't care what you look like. If someone wants to talk shit about you in front of me, I won't hesitate to knock them out"
If you have a stand, star platinum is just jotaro but more honest and affectionate about his love for you but with your stand. You suddenly feel squishes at your tummy and you turn around to see Star lovingly doing the thing to your stand. You feel heavy all of the sudden and Star is unapologetically face-first into your stands chest with happy oras while your stand blushes and calls out it stand cry. Jotaro is very embarrassed when you see these and you tease him for it.
"Oh? Star Platinum really likes touching my stand~" "Shut your trap before I make you."
Fair warning, he's like a cat - biting you and then kissing where he bit out of affection - especially since you feel so soft under his teeth
Passes out on your body - hope you don't like moving
nsfw
Now the moment you've been waiting for
His hands like to wander, grabbing and pull at your ass, smacking it whenever he feels like it when it's just the two of you, all that good shit
Body worshipper? Hell yea. Pressing you into the mattress, he'll press kisses all over your body: from your lips, your cheeks, down your neck, to your chest, pressing loving kisses at your tummy, down to your thighs.
And then he eats your pussy/sucks your cock
He gives your thighs the little teasing kisses in between right before going back to giving you oral
He wants you to be squirming in agony as he pleasures you, he wants you to slam your thighs around his head - that was his whole goal before going down town
Sit👏on👏his👏face
Idk how much i have to stress this. This man can take it, he wants to be smothered with a that ass and all those thighs smushing him as he goes to town at your hole. His hands WILL keep you there for as long as he likes. He will make you grind on his face to feel more smothered, if he dies he will die a happy man

I’ve been looking for other jojo headcannon blogs and I think this is my 15th question.
Jojo’s cuddling naked with their s/o (u can skip/ age up some of them if u want) please :)
Jonathan:
he’s a gentleman, he wouldn’t just sleep with any woman willy-nilly.
it’s the victorian times, you gotta be hitched first.
there’s only one time this can happen, and it’s after the act of coitus.
laying on his bare tiddies is a gift
tbh, he wouldn’t sleep totally naked because he thinks its rude to have his thing out next to you while you sleep or you’re next to him. But sometimes that fuckin’ really getting him too tired to put underwear back on.
good-ole traditionally cuddling with you laying on his arm and spooning his side while he’s on his side with his hand on you.
will get extremely embarrassed when he realized that he fell asleep naked.
for more cuddling headcanons, see my cuddling ranking list.
Joseph:
this fucker
complete opposite of his grandfather
sleeps nude whenever he fuckin’ wants and you can’t stop him.
after coitus or just him going to bed bc he had dirty clothes on and didn’t feel like putting more clothes on.
Generates SO MUCH HEAT
clammy and sweaty all the time, no matter the day.
usually spooning with him being the big spoon is the go-to
also likes to rest his head on your tiddies and wrap his arms around your waist.
will rub his thing on your butt
kinda a restless sleeper, sometimes you’ll wake up cold and find him on the floor with the blanket.
Will partake in light somnophilia with your consent beforehand, you just wake up and find a load of cum in you.
"Put some damn clothes on, Jojo!"
"Don't wanna~ Too tired! Let's just cuddle!"
"You're sweaty as hell! Get off me!"
smells like the sun and musk
sometimes sweat

the daddy issues are loud tonight but please, sfw & nsfw for them sexy jojo dilfs 💅✨(feminine reader pls 💕)
I am reading this ask disrespectfully as my daddy issues activate 😔
Jojo DILFs Headcanons (Female Reader)
Old Joseph
sfw
Now thats what i call a daddy
Ugh grizzly buff men with beards do make me weak
Ngl, you probably started the relationship off as a one-night fling from the bar: but that joestar cock got your running back
He's got this gentlemanly charm and suave to him you've never seen from guys your age, and he's certainly funnier than the men you've dated.
He doesn't have to do much to get you laughing, he loves that big grin on your face when he throws out cheesy jokes
Because he's a father and generally experienced life for more years, you come to him for adult problems: like how to do something on your taxes, how to put money in a 401k, insurances, how to finance, etc.
He's also very gentle with you, his strong muscular arms keep you feeling safe and how he softly dominates you for stupid things like reaching things for you and etc. makes butterflies appear in your stomach
"Here, let me get it. You're too little to reach that." 😩
Or when he teases you.
"What's wrong? Cat's got your tongue, little girl?" "I'm older than most guys, but I have no problem powering through tasks, doll. I’ll show ya." 😩😩
Smells like musky and spicy cologne and that tasty older man smell.
Ngl his kisses taste like whisky and cigars
His beard will tickle you every time he kisses you, and he would laugh when you would.
"My beard bother you that much, darling?" With a deep chuckle.
He'd take you out to high end parties he needs to attend or take you out shopping. He wont say no.
Sometimes gets insecure when you want him to meet your friends or family. "Don't you think they'll find it strange that their daughter is dating someone older than her dad?"
But then he somehow makes friends with your family instantly, singing merrily drunk with your dad and or friends.
Definitely does classic 50s dates: roller skating rinks, drive thru movies and restaurants, share milkshakes together, etc.
Nicknames: Darling, Doll, Hun
Boomer, but he still laughs and plays along when you do younger generation stuff
Hoo boy, it was award trying to explain to his 20+ year old grandson and 40+ year old daughter, that Joseph was in a relationship with someone significantly younger than him
You can’t see stands, but Joot definitely called out Star Platinum to choke out his grandfather while he tried to use Hermit Purple to get him off
He’ll be more than happy to show you old photos of him in his prime
He’s still hot younger wtf
He’ll show you baby pictures of Holly and Jotaro without a doubt while gushing over it.
He lives his life like the traditional old-school gangster, of course his home life would consist of old-school western traditions
He'd like it if you were alongside these traditions as well: being his little housewife and taking care of the home while he's out at work.
He would adore it if you would act like you didn't know much about his work or much of anything outside of housework, cooking, or stereotypical women things - his cute little wife doesn't need to worry her pretty head about troublesome things like the mafia
After a long day of work, he'll soften at the sight of you coming towards him in an apron with flour stains after baking, giving him a big kiss on his lips and welcoming home.
Wear vintage dresses: like 40's or 50's dresses with your hair done up, wearing makeup (if you'd like), and wearing the jewels he buys you. He'll think you're the most attractive woman in the world
He buys you whatever you'd like, especially if you butter him up first: making him his favorite dinner, setting up his favorite record on the record player, pouring him a glass of whiskey, and fetching his cigars. Then sitting with him as he relaxes for the night like a pretty little thing.
"Prosciutto?" "Yes, dear?" "There's these shoes I saw in the catalog earlier today and they're to die for...I think they would go lovely with that purple dress you bought me." "Hm...I see. Give me the catalog and I'll order it for you."
Really play up the whole wife act and he'll go nuts.
"Prosciutto, my darling husband." "Welcome back, dear. Do you want to eat first or do you want me to set the bath up?" "Of course I can do this for you, I'm your wife. I would do anything for you, my husband."
Especially if you talk about your past and prefer your life now than before: "I would never go back to the way I was! I'm happier with you. The only thing I need to worry about is how my dear husband is doing and how to make you happy."
That's it, you're getting some tonight
Prosciutto will pick you up bridal style from whatever you were doing and carry you off to the bedroom, laying you down and crawling on top of you: "You know what would make me happy right now? Making a baby with you."
He'll wrap his hand around your throat affectionately: "I think this necklace is the prettiest of them all, what do you think?"
His a bit more feral in bed because of that wife act you play up, trying to undo all of your buttons of your dress in record time while messily kissing you and getting your lipstick smeared onto his lips
As he's thrusting into you, he'll see your face twisted in pleasure. He'll chuckle and cup your face affectionately.
"Oh, is this too much for you? You can't think straight because your husband is fucking you so good? Oh, poor baby. Mia Moglie's pretty little head is full of nothing but her husband's cock."
When you cum, he'll kiss you on the top of your head and say: "Mia Moglie is so perfect, cumming so cutely on my dick. You don't have to worry about a single thing when I'm here, all you have to do is sit pretty and cum for me."
There are times where Prosciutto comes home stressed after another meeting with La Squadra and having a reduced pay from the boss. You know exactly what to do to ease the tension.
You get on your knees in front of him and start undoing his pants, servicing him and helping him forget work for just a moment.
He'll be silent, a way to telling you he's not interested. But the more you palm at the mound in his pants and look up at him with those perfectly mascaraed eyes and those plump lips painted with his favorite color of pink lipstick so kissable. He can't refuse.
"Go ahead."
His hands will be laced in your perfectly curled hair while you sucked on his cock, bobbing your head up and down as he grunted.
Oh, he will dirty-talk you the whole damn time.
"I'm so lucky to have you, there's no one else who can get on their knees and suck my cock like you do."
"You're doing so well, I'm getting so hard for you."
"You're gonna be a good troia and deepthroat your husband's cock, yeah? Mm, good girl."
"Tell me, is your pussy getting wet from this? Pleasuring your husband after he's had a bad day? Oh, I'll have to reward you for this later, Amore."
