Eh, I'm a straight woman and to be honest, from what I've seen on YT, Viconia's romance IS THE BEST WRITTEN one out of all of the original BG2 companions. Like what do women get? Ah, right, Annoyman. I always wished Haer'Dalis was romancable (I know Bioware had plans to make him romancable, but ran out of time). And honestly, there are ways to make Viconia useful in combat, her natural magical resistance perhaps? Maybe some people like the idea of a drow? Like there are countless reasons to keep her in neutral/good parties.
