To me the only things that are unacceptable in the kisses are Tav's facial expressions and body language. Tav should look happy and actually touch him instead of standing there with clenched fists. I love the dominant, cheeky behaviour of Astarion, his promo smirk and the smug faces, that's how a confident Vampire Lord should act. He is perfect the way he is, only Tav is acting OOC and it ruins everything!]
I 100% agree with everything you say. I wish we could upvote posts in here. I did say in my first post that Astarion was OOC, to clearify what I meant was that he was OOC with Tav making those faces. As in he would stop and ask something like "what's wrong, darling?" and not continue with the kiss. Changing Tavs expression and body lanuage would fix the kisses for me too.
