I thought Aylin and Isobel were adorable.
Maybe tthat’s a reason why queerphobes don’t pick on them?
If you pick on them, you’ll be bombarded with so many objectively great moments of queer love, respect, and caring, that it would be a battle queerphobes would be sure to lose — even without a lot of effort on the other side. Because Larian created such a great pair in them.
You will see how much they succeeded if you rescue Isobel in your first playthrough and then play dark urge as second — and succumb to killing Isobel. There is a stark difference between scenes with Isobel and Dame Aylin and scenes with only Dame Aylin. Killing Isobel when you know the plot with her really drives home how evil it is to try to destroy queer love.
