astarion is grumpy because he thought there would be more naked twinks and debauchery based on the complaints in the editorial section of the baldur’s mouth gazette

jaheira and minsc are on the side doing that tiktok “talk valentina!”/“ally!” bit

The concept of imagining the actuality of long marches or difficult terrain with the tadfools is hilarious. The party really is

- Wyll (24, infamous adventurer, used to living in the wild)

- Lae’zel (age unknown bc of the Astral Plane, but likely Wyll’s age or younger, a prime gith warrior), and

- Karlach (Zariel’s best soldier, infernally modified, used to strenuous work).

Followed immediately by:

- Astarion (250 year old vampire who’s been starving for 200 years and hasn’t left Baldur’s Gate in about that long)

- Shadowheart (40 year old half elf who’s lived in Baldur’s Gate in a cloistered religious order), and

- Gale (35 year old human wizard with creaking knees).

Wyll is having the time of his life and probably jogs for fun. Astarion is sunburned and fucking furious. Half of them are thriving. Half of them are dying. How long do you think it takes them to get anywhere

I wish BG3 companions could use their loot to buy stuff of their own volition.

They have the ability to carry the gold and can use (some) stuff if it's left in their inventory. So why not?

I'd pay for a dlc or mod that added that function so fast... just to see what these dopes would spend their gold on if given free reign.

Just finding the most random shit in their inventory/tents when you go back to long rest.

Like imagine you come back from the lower cities on the first day and everyone's broke.

Gale's encumbered by every book he could find plus he bought a bunch of fancy tea/coffee and a very nice silver percolator.

Astarion's digging through all the shiny stuff he bought/swipped while sipping expensive wine in his new threads and smelling like 1k cause he hit the perfume joint.

Wyll's sneaking away with his latest monster romance novel and a BIG bag of the most fried, salty junk food type snacks faerun has to offer.

Shadowhearts got 17 boxes of hair dye, the latest gossip mags and her own 6 bottles of expensive wine.

Karlach keeps buying fireworks and accidentally seeting em off at inappropriate times and has almost set her own giant bag of snacks on fire several times already.

Lae'zel bought a sword and an elaborate dragon statue she refuses to let anyone touch.

yknow what would've been cool? the romance scenes with all the companions but make it platonic.

learning magic with gale, dancing with wyll, teaching shadowheart how to swim, cuddling with karlach, sparring with lae'zel. like i dont get why these scenes have to be romance exclusive?? with high enough friendship i think these scenes should've been possible to get.

Halsin and Jaheira watching the rest of the Tadfools have a psychic conversation and waiting for Tav to drop a context clue to what’s going on

the funny thing to me about wyll being described as the most normal guy in the party of tadfools is that he is only “normal” in a comparative sense. of course he looks like the most sensible, trustworthy individual here, look at the batshit insane people he surrounds himself with. it’s easy to come off as sane at first glance when everyone he knows is pissing off gods and violating the faerûn equivalent of the geneva convention left right and center. then he drops his own wild lore out of left field— like that time he attempted grand larceny at eight years old, or that he has fond memories of reading mermaid porn his father kept hidden and can recite them from memory, and you remember that he should not, in fact, be trusted to make wise decisions if left unattended.
