Maybe it bugged out for me, but it sounds similar to what she say after she catches you with Mizora. But I took that as more of a casual sex thing/orgies between initiates opposed to a poly relationship (I know some people might loose their minds that a 50 year old woman had previous partners but I don't care about that my main issues is with the writing)

I already wrote in my previous post edit that the issue comes from how her romance is portrayed (reject Shar and before that) - she is against poly in it is she not? (she rejects any attempts to open the relationship and says that she's against it) So when Mizora/Halsin thing shows up it feels as if its out of left field. If they went with making Shadowheart poly only in her accept Shar version then it would at least make sense since she's fully into the being a Sharan, 'exploring her sexuality' and not being tied down because her main interest is with Shar. (like you said hook ups from her past)

(A quick question tho - I know you are poly but imagine yourself in a mono relationship. How would you react if your mono partner in your mono relationship started flirting with others? That's what I was trying to say, if a character is poly and flirting I don't care as long as they make sure their partner is okay with it but if they say they are in a mono relationship....eh not as cool now is it)

Astarion is okay(-ish) with sharing you with Mizora. It doesn't sound like he's too keen on it, either, and I think he could be poly, but is just too traumatized to really make an informed decision, but that's an entirely different can of worms. My point stands: Astarion does not only share with Halsin, he also shares with Mizora, so there is a pattern of him sharing Tav.

I do agree that there is a possibility for Astarion being the 'share' type but the way it was done just rubs me the wrong way

If Larian wants to clarify part of his romance, or adds additional scenes, I am all for it!

With this I can agree with, it's been fun talking to you.
