I think it might be a case of patch incompatibilities. On release, with my drow I had that line, then on my 1st Durge it was still there and my 1st Durge was created after Patch 1. And my current tiefling Durge was created in patch 3 and had no 'saving their tails' line either. He just said 'let's stop wasting our time and go'. Maybe if you create a new save and romance him again you'll get the correct line? Or maybe he's just being extra sensitive to mentioning tails cause my Durge is a tiefling? I dunno.

True, but half the time Lae and SH in particular are getting quite bugged and they don't notice anything, heck on my tiefling only Karlach had that line at the party, SH just wanted some private time without mentioning Astarion, and Lae wanted to bang lol. On my 1st Durge all 3 of them noticed the relationship with Astarion though. I don't know what bugs are those and what triggers them. It's really inconsistent when it comes to the party I gotta say. But it would be nice having the option to discuss our romance with pretty much anyone, hear some opinions (especially from Jaheira and Minsc lol). And it should be a feature for ALL romances too, not just Astarion.

You have to skip the long rest after ascending him and immediately go to the point of no return to finish the game.
Because it's in the game, it is canon then that he would keep trying to persuade Tav who's still hesitating. Hence my other suggestions.

Ooooooooh I just learned something new! DAMN Thanks for illuminating me! I had no idea it was even possible and that it has ending lines for it too! DAAAAAAAYUM! Mind blown!

Yeah same, like I said, I will test it one day and if it works like that then I will upload it lol. I blame it on the game being too new.

Hmm true, you are correct! The game does treat Astarion not like a person but a toy post his ascension, which yep, is hella depressing!

I am gonna check it now! Also, the game has had a hotfix 10 which made his kiss.. even funnier! Both better and worse! I even made a vid of it and uploaded it, also, forgive my loud laughter but it's just hilarious!
