Saw an Astarion post on Facebook that was literally like "Wow I wish Astarion was a woman because that would make it even easier for me to sexualize his trauma" and I honestly can't believe some people will just go online and tell on themselves like that
Didn't get a screencap because I was too shocked
@coriander i was watching a pokemon scarlet let's play recently where eventually the youtuber started talking about the massive sadboy of a rival arven like "oh yes please trauma dump at me, i love sadboys"
@coriander i do love his arc but he is definitely not my type (i purroject way too much into traumatized characters and i Don’t Like It)
@aescling I didn't play S/V myself, just watched a streamer play it so I'm definitely biased by her takes but I honestly just don't see it lol
@coriander @aescling oh i like arven i think he's cute
however i think i'd like him a lot less in violet; him having mommy issues is ok but daddy issues would be a very different vibe
@Lady @coriander when the game revealed he had serious mommy issues this had the unintended effect of making me extremely sussed out on him because at the time the last time i’d been trying to be friends with somebody in real life who had serious trauma she’d kinda fucked me up a lot and i was worried he was also gonna turn out to be a poorly adjusted little shit
@Lady @coriander on a replay i did like him though

@aescling I don't understand how anyone could like Arven lmao
