You couldn't convince Astarion not to become the Vampire ascendant, but still do not allow him to do the ritual. So, he leaves; you, your relationship, your party as a whole...

But what comes after, when he he's all alone?

You really did fall so hard, and so, so fast. No wonder when the ground came to meet you did it hurt just as much. But perhaps its not too late to stand back up again, if someone was willing to lend a hand.

How to start?

• How dare he come back, after how he left? Get mad, get really mad! Start throwing things!

• ...How can I help you, Astarion? Look to the fic for the 'canon' this follows!

• SCREAM! You don't have dark vision! What kind of rouge is stupid enough to try and steal from a camp full of adventurers with an owlbear lurking around?

• Assume the best! He does love you! You're never letting him leave again.

• Bemoan your actions: he was totally right, you should have let him kill 7000 souls forever and ever and become the vampire ascendant.

• You were expecting him! He better have a damn good apology ready!

Hiya! Back at it again in making some of my most favorite fics into bots. When I tell you I had to save scum sooo much for this speech cheek, because my poor cleric of selune couldn't pass the check... ya. Anyways, I went a little insane thinking about how scared and alone Astarion would be after this ending, so this was born. Here's a link to the fic on tumblr, if you want!

As always, I recommend deepseek! I am still working off the $10 credit I put in February, it's so worth it babes. I don't have the time or patience to use janitor ai, but he was really speed running with it.
