They all LITERALLY just met, would you murder for someone you just met without evaluating the situation fully? If so you may be qualified to be an American cop.
Bare in mind that for Karlach to be here, this is a Tav who at the VERY LEAST has already killed the fake group of Paladins that Karlach herself had trouble finishing off.
Love how Wyll immediately knows Astarion's a vampire because he's a monster hunter. Also Gale just being the classic d&d epitome of a "I don't care, I will cast fireball" wizard
Honestly, since she's a Tiefling he could have gone for some real dirty blows. Personally, I think he considered doing that during tge brief pause before going with "Fire Girl." Probably decided against it because she's VERY clearly a person you don't want to push too far...
Did you have your ears plugged up when Lae'zel stepped up to flirt/threaten him in your defense? If anything she was the most effective as she had him more distracted.
@@eslin2845 except she has NO other dialogue to support your head canon, but she has a ton of dialogue that shows that she wants/needs you alive. You're just yapping TBH.
@@michasokoowski6651What were the bugs? It's still pretty annoying he wants to eat magic items early in the game when magic items are hard to come by. I don't see that as a bug though, that's intentional, lol.
@@TeamLexana From giving him magic items you got too much affinity prettty much almost maxing it out, it made it so he was hitting on you almost instantly, then a bug where you rejecring him wasn't properly flagged, so he was pretty much hitting on you every few rests until all romance cutscenes were used up. And then people not understanding social cues and what he means by "showing you some magic in his tent"
@@michasokoowski6651 LOL. Magic moves in his tent. Gale is such a dork. I gotta get around to romancing him. I usually turn him down at the tiefling party. Can't stand the Mystra. Mystra. Mystra. routine for romance. Duuuude, I don't wanna talk about your Goddess ex girlfriend, AGAIN.
@@michasokoowski6651i played a wild magic sorcerer (like irl dnd) who loved fireball and well… it went about as well as one might imagine. not too much damage! no TPKs! 😭 i love the stupid wm sorcerer table lol it’s so funny. iirc she turned into a potted plant once 😅
I'd like to him try, hehe. I accidentally miss clicked during a combat encounter and had Astarion bite Karlack and.... he did NOT like it. I'm pretty sure Karlack laughed at him too. 😂😂😂
Gale: "But if you use that knife, I will incinerate you." Astarion: "And your friend with me? Hardly." Gale, specced as an evocation wizard with sculpt spells: "Try me."
Tav: Hey, Astarion. Remember that time you tried to kill me. Astarion: Oh...you still are sore about that? After all we have accomplished together? T: No. No. If I was in your place and needed answers I would have done the same but...why the damsel in distress routine? A: To distract you of course. T: I got that. But why the damsel? If you thought I worked with the ilithids, I wouldn't have bothered to help you. At all. A simple ambush would have been sufficient and more to your advantage.

I love how there's some measure of veiled threat to all of them, even if it's just long-winded... And then there's Karlach going fully Nic Cage. Astarion's retort would work better on just about anyone else in the world lol
I remember my first interaction with astarion. I head butted him and said he owed me more then an apology. He responded with sarcasm, and then months later he was the best man at my tavs wedding with karlach
Gale: but if you use that knife I will incinerate you. Astarion: And your friend with me? I mean said knife is currently at Tavs throat if you use it *properly,* Astarion, there wouldn't be much left to save anyway 💀
He's going to have more than just a chip tooth if he tries to eat her heart. Kind of hard to rip off somebody's face when it's burned to literal cinders.
This scene is always so goofy to me lmao. None of the companions adopting a combative stance, Astarion awkwardly craning his neck to look at them thanks to the weird decision to have this confrontation on the ground, it's just so silly. They've reworked a handful of other sequences in the game to give them some improved animations, I'm surprised this one still hasn't recieved the same treatment.
That I could forgive, but when he tries the same shit at camp his chances are up - staked through the heart, stripped naked and thrown in the middle of the goblin camp among the trash where he belongs 😎
I love how they’re just going around the table, failing intimidation check after intimidation check, and even the specifics of the dialogue is on point for how players would speak, and how the DM would respond. Really shows how much the developers know their audience and community, it’s really very heartwarming.
Gale and Shadowheart make me feel like “Aw they really do care… in their violently protective ways.” Also that little laugh as Astarion tackles has me rolling xD.
They’re not even standing to get ready for a fight, they’re just standing like they’re dissapointed at Tav for getting ambushed 😭
so sassy for people who DIDN'T WARN MEEEEEEE
This ambush was so obvious, I wish there was an option to be like "I can help you if we go together, lead on.", so that we won't turn our back on him.
They all LITERALLY just met, would you murder for someone you just met without evaluating the situation fully? If so you may be qualified to be an American cop.
@@Majin_Koolaid yeah but SHADOWHEART NEEDS US ALIVE IT MAKES SENSE TO PROTECT US SO WHY DOESNT THE BITCH GET UP AND HELP

Or you know "all bark no bite" is just a very common saying
@@akumukami5527he says he's all BITE no BARK.
he's literally implying that Astarion is a vampire.
@@Takapon218 and afterwards he used said that he likely messes up that line. Use your brain
@akumukami5527 he's making a joke, he clearly knows Astarion bites as in he's a vampire
@@sirgwan5768Add to that that Astarion is only upset/taunted by Wyll out of all of them, he suspects Wyll is onto him.
“I'll eat your heart, fire girl”
Karlach: “I would LOVE to see you try”
Yeah...pretty boy ain't got a snowballs chance in hell there.
"Why is it spicy?!"
"Can you swim, Astarion?"
Jokes on you! I’m missing a heart!
"going to go to the hells to find it?"
The glasses on Astarion make him look like an old man tending to his library 😂 I absolutely love it
Any idea what is the outfit Tav is wearing?
Is "library" codeword for "Tav"? 😘
@@aaayyygender 😂😍
@loneliberation3483 looks like the Ocean dress from the Basket full of camp clothes mod. Probably dyed from its original color to baby blue.
A cross between Rupert Giles & William the Bloody [Spike]
"companions trying to protect you"
The companions in question: 🧍🏻♀️🧍🏾♂️🧍🏻♂️
His comeback to Karlach was so weeeeeaaak LMAO "Fire Girl" 💀💀💀
Trying to eat her infernal iron heart is not going to be as easy or fun as he thinks.
He makes up for that one with his rejections to Tav
“It’s not you it’s me..I’ve got standards”😢
He's trying his best okay 😭
Honestly, since she's a Tiefling he could have gone for some real dirty blows. Personally, I think he considered doing that during tge brief pause before going with "Fire Girl." Probably decided against it because she's VERY clearly a person you don't want to push too far...
So Karlach, Gale, and Shadowheart are the most protective of Tav, even only 5 minutes after meeting them. Good to know (:
this is the trio i always keep as my party
Did you have your ears plugged up when Lae'zel stepped up to flirt/threaten him in your defense? If anything she was the most effective as she had him more distracted.
Yeah, one of the many reasons why they are THE "base" of my party composition.
@@Majin_Koolaidwell Lae’zel sounds more like she wants to murder astarion, regardless of tav being captured or not

I like how Gale sounds like an automated defense bot:
"Attention citzen, unhand Tav or you will be incinerated"
I love how they're just standing back all chill like "Ah shit, Tavs gonna kill this guy"
Honestly... you don't want to rush in hostage situations
TBH I think nobody was taking Astarion all that seriously.

Astarion regreted it
@@Loryplayz no doubts about it ahaha
"And I'll eat your heart, fire girl."
Yeah, uh, good luck with that.

Hahaha the giggle at the beginning tho 😂
What was with the giggle hahaha
It sounds funnier after looping this clip and it goes Astsrion being head butted to his weird little giggle right after.
his giggle is damn near contagious 🤭
Was that inserted? Or does he actually giggle like that before ambushing tav? Lmao
@@patheticallyy he giggles doing damn near everything, it’s addictive

for real, don’t tempt him Astarion haha.
I would have yelled, "Do it, Gale!", if I didn't know Astarion.
If you use that knife, I won't have a friend left to worry about incinerating with you...
@@BattlesnyLol I thought that too. If Astarion kills Tav he shouldn’t worry about giving me a cremation.
Me on my first run, playing a Tiefling: "Pretty sure I can take it. Can you?"
That Wyll hair mod is amazing, he looks so good 👀
Being able to use the appearance editor on companions makes every playthrough feel fresh. Let's you change every aspect.
Wyll looks like a beautiful prince (very on-character)
Right!
do you know the mod for shadowhearts clothes here
@@theviolinjester532 I don't, sorry.

She wants to take his face…off!
Asterion: "And I'll eat your heart, fire girl. ...
What's so funny? Why are you laughing?"
Wyll's hair is amazing ❤❤
FR I LOVE IT SM
I want Wyll with Jerry curls
Wonder what mod they used for it
I remember my first interaction with astarion.
I head butted him and said he owed me more then an apology. He responded with sarcasm, and then months later he was the best man at my tavs wedding with karlach
Of all people to call a flirt, wouldn’t expect Lae’zel.
Yes, but Lae'zel's love language is fist to cuffs... LMAO
Asterion in glasses looks like if somebody walked up and slapped him on the arm he would start crying

Astarion: And I’ll eat your heart, fire girl.
Karlach: Sure, *just tell me if you can find it.*
“Hahaha :c “
"All bite and no bark". Well...
"Fire girl" was fucking weak
listen it's been a stressful day for him
He wanted to say some racist shit about tieflings but then saw how big she was, and on fire. So he played it safe.
But consider that they're all ganged up on him hahah 😭😭
Exactly like him

wyll has some serious DRIP with that hair mod! it looks so good on him!
That laugh in the beginning tho 😂😂
It's Stewie Griffin. Everything Astarion says is either Stewie Griffin or Dr. Frankenfurter.
And now you can never unhear it. :)
damn Wyll really clocked him immediately lmao
Jokes on you, Gale is an evocation wizard!
Fancy boy 😂
Wyll looking fresh with that hair option
Gale: but if you use that knife I will incinerate you.

I mean said knife is currently at Tavs throat if you use it *properly,* Astarion, there wouldn't be much left to save anyway 💀
Right? I never understood that comeback.
He's not a details person.
The fact that Karlach didn't respond to him saying "and I'll eat your heart." Was a missed opportunity. Lol
You might chip a tooth if you try. 😏
gosh, a vampire with a broken canine... 😂

It's a bit funny though xD
i mean gale is definetly ready to use a fire bolt on him.
About Gale-
He did say *if you use that knife* so it doesnt.matter if he incinerates both lol
Astarion laughed at beginning. Got me. 🫢 LMAO 😂
The aHAHAHA in the backgrounf to Astarian wearing those itty glasses got me and WII MUSIC into the simple headbutt is so funny
The all bark no bite then turn around, he knew and no one can convince me otherwise.
oh 100% but wylls no snitch
Everybody loves the glasses mod.... Except for me
these outfits suck too way too unimmersive
@@artturisiikanen3843 that’s also very fair
Decking him in the face at the end has me dying. 😭 😂
Gale is great. "I'm down to play ball, but if you kill her I will make that the last thing you ever do."
Good luck with karlachs heard asterion
"Ill eat your heart" "Hope you like the taste of metal dumbass"
Tav: *dying*
Wyll: The time for jokes has come
Karlach is like jokes on you if you can find it. 😂
Wyll absolutely knows, right? Theres no way he doesnt.
Also Asatrion's reaction to Karlach is literally made for second playthroughs its so perfect
“I’ll eat your heart”
Astarion, buddy, she doesn’t have one
The adventures of pretty boy and fire girl
Can we just say how well Astarion looks in glasses
That Wyll haircut is much better than his default imo 😐
You mean the locs? Yeah much better lol
He looks very handsome, and less prim and proper scout boy. Much more interesting!
He looks sooo good. Gonna start a new save to romance him with locks now 😂
The glasses are a nice touch...just awkward in this scene 😆
I appreciate that everyone shows Astarion the respect he deserves.
None
Gale : 'I will incenerate you'
Me : Holy f*
It's cute that he thinks he can take Karlach.
I just burst into laughter when Astarion told Karlach he’d eat her heart and tossed in a little “GOOD LUCK WITH THAT” before laughing even harder
Astarion with glasses is giving off heavy Bayonetta vibes and I'm 100% here for it lol.
What was that fecking laugh at the beginning? 😆
I love this game so much.
The fucking line up at the beginning is so funny for no reason.
I love how he has a smart comeback for each of them
Karlach sitting there like, I’d like to see him try to eat a nuclear reactor
Damn, Wyll thinks he's a comedian 😭
The glasses mod is getting overused as fuuuuu
all these outfits ruin the immersion
Oh great the glasses make him more handsome
Tav at the end be like "Good job gang! You kept him busy just long enough for me to get a headbutt in!"
Wait… I wasn’t supposed to kill him?
Bro he is one of the most important characters in the game hahaha
@@natra4480 look…. He held a knife to my throat and I aint like that

*internal screaming*
On my first run, I killed all companions accept for shadowheart cuz I didn’t know they were major characters lmao
Sthap putting wyll in his vacation auntie hairdo please
same with the glasses and present day clothes.
All of their responses are funny as hell but Gale, Laezel and Karlach are my fave
having karlach in your play thru before astarion is quite a feat in itself
The insane giggle after knocking Tav down just gets me every time XD
I love how they’re just going around the table, failing intimidation check after intimidation check, and even the specifics of the dialogue is on point for how players would speak, and how the DM would respond. Really shows how much the developers know their audience and community, it’s really very heartwarming.
He looks like he's finally lost it after people kept loudly talking in the library.
All the companions dressed like they’re going to COMPLETELY different events
The giggle at the start and the headbutt at the end is just too funny.
I love how calm Gale is when he says he’ll incinerate Astarion. I believe he means it.
What mod did shadowheart’s dress come from? It’s so cute!
Wtf was that stewie griffin laugh at the beginning 😂
That's just Astarion being Astarion
When Astarion was talking to Kharlak: “Guess he needs more infernal iron in his diet” 😂
Shadowheart really just standing there like a disappointed mom
Everyone having a witty line and karlach is just straight to the point "Ill rip your face off" and i lover her for it
Those glasses really add a lot to the character. Fits his appearance, fits his voice!
Gale "I didn't ask how close they were. I said I cast fireball"
I wanna see him Karlachs heart...
This is always funny to me, Astarion you do know if anything happens to me, you aren’t walking out of this alive right?
Astarion is in grandpa glasses and Lae’zel is in a fancy gown😂 this mod is is weird I love it
love this gay little librarian look you got goin on for him
Also i love the little chaotic giggle he gives as he tackles tav lol
Ph my god, Wyll with long Hair looks gorgeos!
I really love his giggle 😂
On both my playthroughs, none of my companions said ANYTHING. Not a word, they just stand there like "eh, whatever".
Gale and Shadowheart make me feel like “Aw they really do care… in their violently protective ways.”
Also that little laugh as Astarion tackles has me rolling xD.
“I’ll eat your heart” good luck with that should’ve been a follow up line from Karlach 😂
