Agreed, Icelyn, I'm looking forward to Halsin's!

If Astarion's new one isn't gated to ascended only, I wouldn't mind if, and only if, we had the option to tell him no and express our displeasure (which we clearly have no agency in the scene they showed, yeesh). It'd be cool if we could be like, "If you wouldn't like someone making you do that, why did I think I'd like doing it?" Remind him of the concept of empathy and that the relationship is a two-way street. Otherwise, break-up.
