photos inspired by dealbreaker chapters ♥️ — chapter 22: wrong

one of my favorites, because it's sad, and then it's smut. yay ♥️🦇 #BloodDancerBG3 #GGGBFics #bg3vp

Willow and Astarion embrace in formal clothing inside a bedroom. The implication is that it is his bedroom, because it looks elegant. Willow and Astarion kiss on top of a bed in the same scene as the other photo. It is gentle and romantic. “I’m sorry, Astarion, for everything,” she says, quieting herself as she stares into his eyes. “I’m sorry for whatever I thought going into this. If you don’t hate me, I promise to take this seriously, and to really, really try with you.”

Silence. Unlike the Elfsong, there is no bustling undercurrent of noise, or cat snoring in a corner when Astarion stares back at her, his face unreadable. There is only the sound of Willow’s own pulse, banging much too loudly within her head as she waits for his response.

wanted to take some photos using the new 💐 ballet des fleurs 💐 poses ♥️ because BloodDancer, duh.

(and because two very cool people made the poses)

#BloodDancerBG3 #bg3vp #virtualphotography

Willow and Astarion are dancing in formal attire; Astarion is holding Willow by the waste while she throws her arms up in the air. Same scene, Astarion is embracing Willow while she leans backward and holds onto the back of his head. Willow poses by herself. This photo highlights the dramatic draped sleeves of her dress, covered in stars. Astarion dips Willow into the frame and they stare into each other's eyes. This is a close-up because if I backed up any further the dress started to get realllly wonky in this pose, I'll be real.

kisses in the corn maze are good for the heart ‪‪❤︎‬

#bg3vp #virtualphotography #BloodDancerBG3

Astarion reaches out for Willow's hand. He is leaning against a haystack in a corn maze (they are surrounded by hay). Willow and Astarion embrace, staring at each other lovingly. Willow and Astarion kiss in the corn maze. On Willow's left hand you can tell she is wearing a wedding ring.

okay okay get this one... how to train your husband 🦇

the cat is their daughter, Juniper. it's been my HC for a while that she's a bit of a druid (+ multiclass rogue if we're putting it in those terms) which is really funny because... nvm ❤️🥰

#BloodDancerBG3 ❤️ #bg3vp #ascendedastarion

Willow sits on a bench with her arm held out so that Astarion, in bat form, can perch on her hand. A white cat, Juniper, sits in front of them. Same scene with Astarion in a slightly different pose (like he's flying) and Willow looks as if she's speaking. The mood is warm and autumnal.

one of my favorite things when writing about 🦇 ascended Astarion 🦇 is thinking about how he would experience a newly beating heart ❤️‍🩹 especially when he’s… pining.

part 12 (out of 100) of my Dealbreaker cliffs notes ♥️
#BloodDancerBG3 #GGGBfics #AscendedAstarion

Story snippet with a light blue background 

Dealbreaker Ch. 12: Your Choice
A beating heart is a silly, uncontrollable thing. While he dresses himself to meet Willow, Astarion's vascular system is more active than it has ever been — spare maybe the night they separated.
His heart poundsas the feeling of nervousness bubbles up inside of him, making him wonder if there's any good in this particular part of living. It only seems to make him lightheaded.
Astarion in a chair with his head tilted all the way back like he’s freaking out
@ambsthebard.bsky.socialOct 9, 2026, 11:33 AM

would you still love me if I was a bat?

yes. without a doubt.

#BloodDancerBG3 🦇❤️ #bg3vp #ascendedastarion

Astarion, in white bat form, flies into Willow's open arms. It looks as if they are greeting each other. Astarion, in bat form, presses his head into Willow's chest. She presses her head against him in return. Astarion is out of bat form, but it is clear this is still the same scene. He and Astarion are embracing in their usual forms.

starry eyes sparking up my darkest night 🥹✨

this is one of the first pc pictures I took but I still like it (sort of). sooo here you go

#BloodDancerBG3 #bg3vp

Willow sitting in Astarion's lap on a bed. They are staring into each other's eyes. the mood of the photo is romantic.

Willow was essentially a sex worker, so she had a lot of experience — by necessity, not choice.

she was excited when Astarion propositioned her, because she wasn’t accepting for coin or a place to sleep. she liked him 🥰

which, you can imagine, makes things worse later. #TavQOTD #BloodDancerBG3

A photo I took for the fic about Willow & Astarion’s first time. Astarion delicately kisses Willow’s hand. A still from Astarion’s act 2 confession scene. He is holding Willow’s hand.
@ambsthebard.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 2:01 AM

3-part story 💙
sorry folks, she’s done for the night. busy ✨

#BloodDancerBG3 #bg3vp

Willow stands in the Elfsong playing her flute, one leg kicked up in a blue and white patterned dress. She is smiling. Willow is still playing her flute in the Elfsong. This time Astarion is standing behind her. He looks hungry? Willow and Astarion dance together in the Elfsong. There are music notes swirling around them in the air.

my first fic for kinktober is up on AO3! ❤️✨ I put a lot of love into it (as I do with all of my works, including smut) and I took some photos for it, too, because I thought it would be fun!

#BloodDancerBG3 #bg3vp #kinktober2026

Astarion and Willow inside a tent longingly staring into each other's eyes. Astarion sticking his thumb into Willow's mouth. “You don’t have to—”

Willow plans on telling Astarion that he doesn’t have to show her anything. She intends to tell him that he doesn’t have to stay with her tonight, and if he does, he doesn’t have to make her come. She plans on offering him an out, just in case he’s doing any of this out of obligation.

Willow doesn’t get to speak any of that aloud, however, before Astarion’s thumb is inside her mouth.

“And what if I want to?” He asks. He presses the pad of his thumb down onto her tongue, allowing her to taste the salt of him. “Pleasure my beautiful lover before her birthday is over?”

some #BloodDancerBG3 photos for #CozySeptember week 4:
🍪 sweet treats & shrooms 🍄

I went more of the "sweetheart" route, since I don't know yet how to really use props 😅 but there is food in the background! If you look realllly closely 🫣

Willow looking into Astarion's eyes while they slowly dance (implied) in golden lighting. Same scene, slightly different pose with Willow's wrists draped in a relaxed position rather than holding his face. Willow and Astarion dancing side by side in front of their kids, in the same golden light setting.

Dealbreaker would be a LOT shorter if it weren’t for Shadowheart, who is often talking sense into Willow before she does something crazy.

Exhibit A is in Ch. 11 (out of 100), when she suggests that maybe Willow should go on a date with Astarion before having his babies 🤔♥️

#BloodDancerBG3 #GGGBfics

Dealbreaker Ch. 11: Flowers!
"And, I'm sorry—" Shadowheart says, narrowing her eyes,
"why on Toril have you been thinking about this?"
Shadowheart leans forward in her chair, nearly pushing over her goblet as she clasps her hands between the two of them on the table. "You are insane, Willow, if you're considering this.
He— do you remember how you cried? The way he belittled you? I certainly remember, considering how loud all of it was."
"I do," Willow whispers, suddenly staring down into the woodgrain of the table, rather than Shadowheart's piercing green eyes. All of the embarrassed redness disappears from her face, suddenly replaced with a heavy dread, deep in the pit of her stomach. "But I don't want anyone else, Shadowheart, and if he would give me that, then..." Willow shakes her head as tears begin to build up behind her eyes. "I know it's stupid.
I'm so fucking stupid. But I love him, and he sent me flowers."My OC, Willow, standing in front of Shadowheart with her index fingers pressed together and a hopeful expression on her face, as if she’s asking a question.
