That's why it would be nice to have a conversation (or just couple if lines for dialogue) with him if player's Tav prefers mono relationships and could ask Halsin if it would be ok if Tav wants to be only with him (since, if you romance him solo, he says he only wants Tav, so probably it wouldn't be a problem for him). Right now what we have is uncertainty.
And please, dear gods, change (or cut) the first part of his lines about relashionships, its a pure disaster: "Well, relashionships is not really my thing, but yeah, I want only you". Sorry, but it's such a bullshit.


Its still wierd because why even bring it up in the first place? It still feels like a very unatural manipulative conversation. I feel like the flow would go like this

H: I want to be with you
Tav: I wanna be with you too
H: ok But Im poly tho
Tav: Oh uh, Id still like to be with you but Im not sure about the poly thing
H: Oh ok well I can just not be poly anymore if thats what you want

Its still strange and if hes just gonna agree to be mono anyway why even bring it up? I think it should just be something Halsin is open to if its what Tav wants , instead of Tav being the one open to it if its what he wants. The whole poly thing really should center around Tavs character, not Halsins. Especially since Tav brings up poly options with the other characters too. To Gale, "But I want both you and Astarion"

Which now that I think about it is a whole other can of worms because even though they made this a dialogue option for Tav, all the characters still say no. So why even put it in there as a dialogue option for Tav in the first place?

The poly thing by itself is fine. But making it a Halsin thing is a huge narrative problem for him, Tav, and the other characters. This really is much bigger than Halsin, poor guy is just the scape goat.
