Bloodweave but Astarion is very cat like
Instead of using his words to say his feelings for gale, he leaves dead animals in front of his tent after he drains their blood so gale can cook with it. Gale was horrified when he walked out and there was a dead rabbit until he looked up and saw Astarion going like :3 in the distance.

Astarion will be arguing with anyone AND everyone, but will willingly stand next to gale ONLY. Or karlach bc she’s really toasty and he loves that toastiness. Maybe Halsin on a good day and if Halsin lures him out.

Cats HATE IT when u rub or touch their belly. For Astarion, it’s his back (go figure).
BUT Astarion loves it when Gale scratches his ears, or strokes his hair. (Gale is using all his Tara knowledge rn)
———
Does it make sense for Astarion to make biscuits? No. But I do think it’ll be funny if he and Gale are cuddling, and Gale all of a sudden feels Astarion’s claws go in and out of his sleep shirt absentmindedly and he goes “u making biscuits” and astarion is like “no wtf??” (As he continues to make biscuits)
NSFW WARNING!!!!
(astarion DOES leave claws on Gale’s back though)

Yes vampires purr bc i think its really fucking cute and you cant stop me. Astarion, trancing while Gale reads, and Gale just absentmindedly scratches his ears and Astarion starts fucking PURRING. Gale is cooing internally.
(Also was late to making dinner bc thats the rule of cats - if they sleep on u YOU STAY STILL)

Astarion’s ears are also very expressive bc I Said So, and they’ll go in Airplane mode right before he pounces when he’s hunting. Or when he’s about to sneak attack in battle.
(act 1) Astarion: “yeah idgaf abt Gale who cares abt that annoying wizard”
Shadowheart: “mhmmm… sure”
*Gale’s voice is heard amongst the party returning*
Astarion, unaware his ears just perked up comically: “i cannot stand him”
