Kira | Warden-Commander Shepard

A screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3 featuring my Tav, Lynaea, kissing Astarion.

Only the one time and that was by accident. 😆 I still don't quite know how I managed it. Every time since he's had no interest in a relationship apart from friends with occasional juice box benefits. 😋

Unmodded first kiss for #DAFanFriday. 💙🤍

The truly sad thing was that I didn't do it to cheat or anything. 😅 I just used it to spawn clothes from a mod into my inventory. 😭 But I was using pre-EA App directions for enabling it, not knowing that it's actually built right in to said app now, ergo I unwittingly caused conflict.

Elaryn had her first modded kiss yesterday. Unfortunately I flew too close to the sun and my game was completely broken for a while after. 😭 After several reinstalls and painstaking troubleshooting to suss out the problem, I got everything back. Enable console commands at your own risk, indeed. 😅

Is Alistair now in Blackwall's casual clothes? Maaaaybe. 👀

Browsing for camp clothes mods and SO happy to see that people are still making mods for Origins. Most recent one on Nexus Mods is from late last month. 🥰

I suppose it's probably the aforementioned romance mod bumping up his approval faster than normal. Usually I have gift giving down to a science in order to get a slow burn romance. 😋 But hey, at least he approached Elaryn first, which is an essential part of my canon. ❤️

A screenshot from Dragon Age: Origins featuring Alistair Theirin and my Hero of Ferelden, Elaryn Cousland. They're standing opposite each other mid-conversation; Elaryn's back is to the camera. He's smiling with a hint of a smirk.

Poop. I somehow got Alistair's rose way faster than intended. 😅

Usually it's Redcliffe->Circle ->Denerim->Haven->Ostagar/Honnleath->🌹->Dalish->💏->Dwarves->💦->Keep->Denerim2->End.

This time it happened right after the Circle. I guess he's eager to get to the modded romance scenes. 😜

#DAO

I'm immensely privileged in that my husband takes care of household expenses while I try to pay down student loan debt. If that wasn't the case there's no chance in hell that I'd be taking this risk in this shitty market. 😅

Me and Ruya (and oh no this is so cute I have to do my other DA mains). 🥰

Halsin and my Tav, Lynaea, a female wood elf, naked at night. Lynaea's back is to the camera and Halsin looks over his very muscular shoulder at her like he's going to devour her in the best way.

Halsin and Lynaea again but this time Halsin is asleep and Lynaea is tenderly kissing his forehead.

Happy birthday to BG3! The game that I started determined to not romance the bear and then I met him and now it takes a huge amount of willpower to romance anyone else. 🐻💚

Lovely photos by @wildmagickatie.bsky.social 🥰

🥺 She is now and hopes you don't mind if she carries you piggyback style everywhere she goes

Post me to allow people to be unhinged about your characters

Ruya Laidir, a female Qunari warrior with dark blue skin and long dark hair. She has curled horns that sweep back and are adorned with gold rings at their base. She has purple eyes and wears gold eyeshadow around them. She has an assortment of abstract tattoos and decorative scars on her forehead and cheeks. She also has tattoos on her arms and is wearing a form fitting cream crop top and teal sash around her waist. There's a gold chain around her waist a gold bangle around her right bicep.

👀 Any takers for Ruya?

For some weird reason the collector's edition is the same price as just the game (although shipping was $20 even though it came from within the US), hence why he got that for me and not just the game. 🥰

A photo of the Baldur's Gate 3 collector's edition, including the PS5 version of the game, the original game soundtrack, a poster of BG3 maps done in the style of older BG games, two patches (Flaming Fists symbol and Cult of the Absolute symbol), 5 sticker sheets that are stacked with the top sheet featuring chibi heads for the companions in the game, and box designed to look like a big tome, all displayed on a folded BG3 poster that's a much larger version of the soundtrack case cover.

A few weeks ago I had an anxiety spiral where I worried about losing access to some of my favourite games because I only have them digitally.

My wonderful husband reassured me that if it happened it wouldn't be for a very long time, but then also bought me the collector's edition of BG3. 🥹🥰

Watercolor styled digital art of Alistair and Elaryn Cousland happily embracing. They're both in grey and blue Grey Warden armour.

A closeup of their smiling faces.

Happy #DAFanFriday! Here's the first piece I commissioned of Elaryn and Alistair from back when I forced her to have a blonde phase. 😅 This is their reunion at Weisshaupt after DAI. ♥️

You can't compete with me. I want you to win too.

✨I hope we all make it ✨

4 spots open for August, current wait time is about 2 weeks after being delayed by health issues.

I would be really keen to do a DA worldstate at a discount if interested! 👀

Any support or shares are super appreciated at this time!!! 🥹💖

Not sure if it's because I'm in a tank top without a bra but I was suddenly in Regency England and being given the cut direct while out watering flowers a minute ago. 😂 Usually I get a hello from passersby but these two old ladies couldn't look the other way fast enough when I offered a smile lmao.

@eirvherassan.bsky.social HOLD ON I'm an idiot. 🤣 OKAY so that was totally actually because of one of my mods. I missed the note where it restores cut content and doesn't just add new cutscenes. So good news! Everyone can be upset about the cut options, not just console players. Cheers. 😅😆💀

I KNOW. 😭 It makes me paranoid about needing to get DA2 on PC now. And ME Legendary. How much has been kept from us poor console peasants? 😭

And just for clarity since I mention my Alistair mods below, the lines from him were fully voiced, so unless the modders have an in with Steve Valentine, this didn't come up from those. 😝

But! On the plus side, that makes me look forward to continuing my PC play through even more, since it won't just be mods bringing me new Alistair content. 😁
