16+17, 28, 44, 64 for both of them <3 ✨

aaah thank you so much, bb!!! ❤️ this got way longer than anticipated IM SORRY IN ADVANCE

16. Which of the companions does your Tav trust most?  17. Which of the companions does your Tav distrust most?

The way I'm thinking about the bg3 story, both Rosio and Lucis were simultaneously completing parts of the quests, adventuring with only half of the companions, never running into each other (maybe at the end.. big avengers assemble moment.. except it's your ex that kinda ruined your life.. a classic), so from the pool of companions Rosio knows very well - Lae'zel, Shadowheart, Astarion, Jaheira and Halsin - he basically trusts Jaheira the most and almost instantly lol. She reminds him too much of his mother 🥲 Halsin is probably right there with her, he's the main voice of reason, Rosio trusts him to not let him and Astarion die during their gremlin shenanigans 😭 He kinda trusts Lae'zel and Shadowheart too, but only after their "fuck our goddesses" phase, he doesn't generally trust people too attached to their gods.

Funnily enough it took him the longest to trust Astarion 💀 Rosio was convinced he was the object of his manipulation basically till the "I love you" moment (and even more funnily enough, Rosio was willingly subjecting himself to that manipulation, being the self sabotaging, masochistic idiot that he is).

If Rosio knew Wyll, he wouldn't buy into his whole good boy hero shtick. He doesn't believe there are this kind-hearted people out there 😔 (But he's absolutely self projecting lol, the whole "how could you turn so kind when people wronged you so... and why I wasn't capable of it")

Lucis, on the other hand, fucking loves Karlach and Wyll. He trusts them with his life, considers them his best friends. Maybe he's a bit naive, but he actually finds their strong moral compasses admirable.

He trusts Gale too, but considering he's his lover, it's a tad more complicated 💀 It means the absolute world for Lucis that Gale would basically move mountains for him, but there's also.. Mystra 💀 That would be the source of his insecurities and a bit of trust issues (which, tbh, is pretty selfish, boy!!!! It's not like you're completely over your ex lmfaooo 😭)

(And if Lucis traveled with Astarion, it wouldn't even be a case of distrust, that would be a wholeass circus-level hatred... They're two peacocks, and in certain ways dangerously similar... Kill bill sirens blasting in the distance... And that's without the current-lover/ex-lover of Rosio dynamic 💀)

28. What is your Tav’s guilty pleasure?

Oh HMMM. The most typical one being food, I'd say. This man would run out of shape so fast if he wasn't leading an active life lmao. But if we're talking more Deep guilty pleasures, then it's being cared for, not having control, getting attention and feeling small (and yes, this is mostly about sex ahjkdajkds). He doesn't get to feel this way often nor does he even usually allow himself all this.. bc Issues and Trauma :)

For Lucis it's probably getting spoiled lol. He hates it about himself tho (being a spoiled kid, getting harshly criticized for it, wanting to be different, really cutting ties with the way he used to be).

But from more serious point of view, you can apply literal Guilty Pleasures to him. Lucis has such bad body autonomy and sex issues that he hasn't been able to have sex sober for like 20 years, he freaks out so bad and it got so mentally draining that it led to an addiction. Which leads to a constant guilt and pretty damaged confidence. (Turns out being a sweetheart of Athkatlan high society for like a decade really corrupts!!)

44. What song best represents your Tav?

WELL THANKS TO YOU AND YOUR BIG BRAIN MUSIC TASTE, ZEAL, Take This Lonely Heart will always be THE Rosio song. Can't believe Nothing but thieves created a song about my oc, so thankful to them, they really didn't have to 🙏

Now cue to Maneskin brainrot, you can apply so much of their songs to Lucis, bc. Medicated, horny, party animal lifestyle. But honorary mention to After Dark bc sad synthwave/retrowave would be so much his style (and it's what imbued thunder/lightning magic into a bardic instrument is for, right ??)

64. What Tarot Card best represents your Tav?

My only knowledge about tarot cards comes from jojo's bizarre adventure (😭) so literally anyone could correct me on this and my 5 minutes long research aaaa.

Tbh probably Death for Rosio (end of a cycle, change, beginning ??) and I think there would be something very poetic about The Lovers

Aaaa The Devil literally fits so well for Lucis' worse past (addiction???) but I think deep down he's The Fool (innocence, but mainly new beginnings, aww)

✏ 16 & 28!

🥺🥺🥺 hiiiiii thank U for the asks 🥺🥺🥺

16. favorite place to write

Honestly the best place to write is outside + away from people. Get that nature sounds going. The calming breeze rustling the leaves.... so my favorite place to write is on a bench in the middle of the woods ☺️. I went out there today tho unfortunately the bugs were too thick out today and I. Could not concentrate on anything. (The inverse danger of being out in nature)

28. your least favorite part of the writing process

I'm sure a lot of ppl would put like "editing" or w/e which yea that sucks. But Honestly. The thing that always trips me up the most is *starting*. Once I've got myself going I can just go and go and go (in theory), but many times (including rn) I end up stuck at the start of a scene bc I just Can't think about how to actually start it... my forever curse!!!!!! Horrible

oooh if you're still doing that wip ask game: 💔☀️👤

💔 Share your most heartbreaking line.

Nico didn’t want to go home.

There wasn’t an alternative. That was another problem. In the dead of winter, there was no way a kid like him would survive by himself. He couldn’t go back home, but if he stayed out here, he would die. He was sure about it.

The messed-up thing was that he wasn’t even sure if that was a bad thing.

☀️ Share a line with figurative language.

The shock of cold overrode the pain of the fall and forced an inhalation. The cold was immediately forgotten as his lungs exploded in intense, burning pain. It alone almost made him gasp again, but he clasped both of his hands stubbornly over his mouth and nose to prevent it.

His entire body seemed to scream at him with the pain in his lungs and the stinging of his scrapes in the saltwater. His eyes burned when he opened them to look around. The sight that met them forced panic into his heart. There was nothing around him besides a deep, endless blue. He had no idea which way was up, as his fall had disoriented him.

His lungs were desperate for air, but he kept his hands plastered to his face. He knew that if he let go, he would only inhale more of that terrible, icy lava.

👤 Share a line that shows a character’s personality.

He laughed mockingly. “Oh, is that what this is? I see now.” Nico sneered. “You’re jealous, aren’t you? Your dear Elena decided to stop caring about you and picked me instead! No time for a crusty old man when her Piccolo Nico was there. And y’know what? I can’t say I blame her!”
