Stilla :

I shouldn't have romanced Astarion first, I feel like I'm never going to romance someone else cause it will feel like I'm cheating 🙈

Priscillia TURPIN :

I should never have chosen to romance Astarion first, I'm screwed now...😂🥰

🌟 Dar The Star 🌟 :

Not only is Darling, darling! But my names Darlene… so he basically is saying my name through out the whole game. 😇

JenniferHennifer :

Fiiiiiiiine I’ll romance him again 🥰

Jess 🐝 :

He called me "darling," and "love" when I met him and my knees almost gave out 🫠😂🩷

🤷🏿‍♂️Calvo Carbón🤷🏿‍♂️ :

Astarion wouldn't be Astarion without that "darlinnn"

Jacky🌻 :

I’m so glad these two found each other, because I don’t know what my life would be like without Astarion’s “Darling’s”🥰🥰🥰

Sus :

aaaaaah I love when he explains the process! thank you for this! 🥰

Hoesmad :

Astarion is probably the best character in the game. From voice lines and lore, to meta gaming, he's got it all.

IcyVisionary :

Astarion “Darling” and Emmrich “Darling” are the two most powerful ways to say it and I will die on that hill

🦇Shar_Bandraoi🦇 :

When he says, "Hello Darling" like that. 😫❤️‍🔥🖤

Raven :

I love Astarion so much 🥰

🌺❤️Rissa🌺❤️ :

It’s a struggle to romance anyone else 🫣🥴

heidi83 :

Honestly I love hearing Astarion say this. 😅 It just feels right.

GiftedSpyro :

Is this my sign to play Bg3 and love my little Astarion 😏

fan4thehex :

I don't have anything but this

✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧ :

When I played it for the first time, I was completely captivated by that word. After that, I've been flirting with him ever since, hahaha.

Elma :

I love his Darling💞💞💞

Xerxes02 :

unpopular act: I flock astarion most of my runs. Just like I leave gale in his rock. Both are uniquely and good written characters but I somehow can't stand their aditude. I've played their story arch, played a romance run for each but somehow I could never warm up with them.

pirouettepierrot :

Neil is too fucking powerful 😭🩷

Kate Baker :

Someone calling me, darling is the number one thing that will set me off and I couldn’t tell you why and it’s one of the reasons I love him makes me tingle

Teeny Raptor :

I will forever be so grateful that I got delightfully blindsided by this beautiful character.

LittleHorrorSmut :

cant imagine him not saying it hahah, would feel weird not to hear the "Darlin'"
