The biggest toxic myth on the planet is that someone will fix because of the power of love and support. (especially Astarion, who literally gets a high from killing) So Astarion attacks Tav if they choose a wrong way to stop the ritual. And here is a F8 button and the Fantasy story continues. But the Ascension discussion takes on almost all the fire. For some complex reason... "It must be awful, it must-angst it must-abuse" No, what's Spawn End supposed to be if the Ascended End is supposed to be something? By killing in the kitchen, "I could have had it all, bitch, but you're the reason I stayed in that hole and didn't go to that colle-- and didn't do the ritual!" Do we need this discussion?
For all Tavs who choose Lord Astarion and want to give autonomy to a Astarion - trigger if they are forcibly made a victim. But we've already discussed that victim-Tav literally doesn't fit the stories. For many reasons. For this reason, the research is the "Abuse Theme" from Vampire Lord Astarion is almost pointless.
