Are you there tumblr gods? It’s me, Pickel 🥒
How did my longfic about where Astarion fell for a plus-size heroine take over my life? I may never have the answer, but the WIP is still gong strong.
Find it and me on AO3 ♥️

PICKEL PICKEL PICKEL i love u 5eva 🧡🧡
Seriously everyone should go check out pickel’s work because she is amazing and wonderful and i look up to her so much ((her writing is beautiful and i am in awe))
🌟 so I think my smile scene might be the clearing in chapter 27 because i love my babies and i swear I’ll get this flame burning one day ((eventually)) but the tension here makes me giddy
✍️ I think generally I’ve become a bit better at scene setting?? I think it’s still not a strong point but i promise I am trying!!
👀 i mean cursed is still the only thing i have written lmao so feel free to hit it up
Menny is such an amazing friend and natural story teller. If you haven’t read her bg3 isekai, definitely give it a gander!

FSBE 17 - Show You Mine
A nice, simple plan.
“You wanna see mine?” Astarion’s intrepid leader blurts out. And immediately jerks back and slaps a hand over her mouth, eyes wide as if she were a tavern wench who just spilled hot soup over his lap.
In a way…
“What?” he says.
I love this. I love this. And I’ll be thinking about it all day as I trudge through work

This is such a fun snd kind ask! 😭 I also got this from @obsessedwhyyes thank you so much!
🌟A scene that still gives me a giggle is Astarion trying to get rid of Scratch, who has come to camp for the first time on bite nite.
Thou shalt not partake of the blood of thinking creatures. It is forbidden. That was one of Cazador’s key tenants, compelled into each of his spawn.
He was still hungry. And she smelt... delectable. Scratch must have thought so too, because the mutt seemed determined to wake her by nosing at her shoulder. “Stop that!” He whispered, gesticulating wildy, as to scare the dog away. “Shoo!”
With a wag of his tail, the horrid beast grabbed his discarded rabbit and trotted off toward Astarion’s tent. He watched in horror, powerless to yell or flail lest he risk waking Tav as the dog disappeared into the flap.
✍️ I think if I had to pick one way I have improved, it would be in how to “show” and not “tell.” Having characters demonstrate their feelings with behaviors and actions is something I’m not sure if I understood as well in the beginning.
👀 I don’t know if I would say anything I’ve written deserves more love, but that is probably my inner saboteur 😅 but I will say I’m proud of my Bg3 Winter Big Bang fic, Cookies. It’s something I worked on for a really long time and sought to make my writing more than one-note fluff or smut, and I’ll probably be yelling about it for a while ❄️❄️

Every time I talk to Commander Lightfeather I remember he's voiced by the same guy that did Cazador and I find that very funny
Imagine that is the one time Astarion has the ability to talk to animals 😂

Rules: I'II give you five words. Find the word (or closest approximation you can in your works and post an excerpt. Tag others to play and give them new words too!
Ty for the tag @tragedybunny! I was given: Bite, Forever, Time, Stars, and Ice
Bite: Bite Nite flashback here
If he were to make the smallest puncture, run his fangs along her flesh just enough to break the skin, he could taste her and be sure that he was truly free of his master’s compulsion. Every fiber of his being was telling him to tear into her, to bite down and take. Leveraging all the willpower he could muster, he leaned down and lightly pressed his lips to that throbbing pulse.
Forever: From this chapter of my longfic at the Arcane tower
And just like that, the dam broke. The weight of the day came crashing down all at once. Wishing she had her father to comfort her, mourning for Lenore’s lover, forever in wait, and for the rest of her friends- none of them had asked for any of this either. It had been a long time since she’d felt so lost. So Tav just did as she was asked. She let go and sobbed into Bernard’s bronze shoulder.
Time: from my upcoming my longfic chapter!
She’d pulled away so quickly earlier, there’d been no time to win her back before the others pushed her out of his reach, and into the role of leader. Maybe this is how it would always be. Picking up the mantle meant she would often have her hands full, even if it meant pulling back one he was holding.
Stars: From rescuing Arabella after Gale praises Astarion
Astarion rolled his eyes. “Now just tell me I’m beautiful and we’ll call it a day,” he said as he waved him off.
“You’re beautiful,” said Arabella, stars in her eyes a blush on her cheeks.
Everyone laughed heartily, and Tav even snorted as Astarion looked positively mortified.
Ice: from my Winter Big Bang fic, Cookies
The night started with swift retribution for insulting the evening’s patron during a ritual. After weapons of all kinds were cast down and covered with flowers, he mumbled that it made more sense to hold a rite requiring florals sometime that wasn’t “colder than an Ice mephit’s tit.” The chaotic deity immediately changed Astarion's goblet of Thayan red into something much less pleasant.
This was a long one but I’d love to read more of everyone’s writing and I think this is such a cool idea!
Words are: Lie, Soft, Doubt, Heal, Tempt

I did a thing for @bg3-winter-big-bang
I worked with my lovely friend @pickel182 to illustrate a scene in her fic, which you can find here !
It's been a joy and mildly terrifying but I had so much fun and I'm so pleased with the result 😁
(the uncensored version can be found on my arty Bluesky account here 🫣)
Content warning for suggestive pose and mild choking. Art below cut, enjoy!
MJ is my cinnamon apple and the way she brought my sweet girl to life made my little gay heart so happy. When you have a fat OC, art collabs can be a unique struggle but there was none of that with MJ. I am forever grateful and I love this so much!!
❄️BG3 Winter Exchange❄️
A cozy night at home in their lower city home post-Absolute. Whatever will Astarion and Titania do to pass the time? Three guesses 😂
18+ explicit
He shifted downward so he could reach her mouth with his. She tasted of him, and a little of the cookies they’d had for dessert. He hummed with surprise and pleasure into her kiss.

Having internet friends is an experience. Did you eat today? I can’t believe your sister hasn’t apologized yet, what a bitch. Drink a glass of water right now. Want to see a cat picture? I love you. I know you better than your parents. I don’t know your name. I’m having a rough day, can you talk to me about your favorite videogame? I love you. Good morning means good night means good afternoon means go to sleep. Here’s a doodle I made in class. I’m stealing your clothes as we speak, they’re so pretty. I love you. I love your pet. What does your hair look like? I’d love to see that weird leaf. I love you. I’m making you your favorite food. Thank you for holding my secrets for me. I love you. We’re having a coffe date. I love you. I’m giving you a screen-sized hug. I love you. I love you. I love you.
