In patch 6 there was a problem that Tav's facial expressions left no room for imagination, the relationship only seemed toxic, although before patch 6 we could see the story in different shades.

With patch 7, I think, we are returning to the roots, before patch 6, where we could see the romance from different sides, consent and disagreement. In 7 we can imagine that Tav is afraid, kisses and forces himself to smile so that Astarion does not get angry. Now, in 7 patch, you can imagine both a happy path and a path of toxic relationships. At least I can imagine two options.

To be honest, when i saw the smile on Tav's face, i thought it was too pleased, the smile was similar to the one DU makes when he thinks about Astarion's corpse when meeting, and i thought even fear looks better on Tav's face. But after watching the kisses a few times, i came to the conclusion that everything is fine, i just got out of the habit of seeing a smile on Tav's face
But I understand that patch 6 was in the game for a long time, someone got attached to the kisses of patch 6, and wants the ability to see only them without any smiles. The choice, for example, in dialogue would help everyone, but will Larian go for it, that is the question. If they do, then other players may also demand to make different options for their love interests, Gale, Shadowheart ... But if suddenly Larian listen to you, so that there is a choice how to kiss Tav, in the transformation scene to decide this, for example, I will be happy for you. I don't see a problem if there is a choice. Well, except that other players will start asking for the same function for other characters.
