He does not like his world. He sees suffering and injustice done in the name of power and influence, structures and shackles thrown upon it by institutions and gods and always, always, in the end, selfish men.

He doesn't like his world.
He loves it, and wants it to be free.

He'll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul
There won't be a single thing that you can do - he's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost he's a guru
They're whispering his name through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat is a red right hand.
Augustine, the Endless Truth

Dolly lost their family to a plague, so they'll pretend they're not sick until they literally collapse.
But healing is what Augustine *does*.
He scoops them up and tends to them, at their bedside with tea, remedies and gentle fussing that betrays the worry behind his professional facade. #tavqotd

Day 11 of #bg3kinktober is upon us! This one makes me snicker with amusement, and we've gone for pet play. Val'dran really is such a mischievous little kitten, but sometimes that has consequences 😏😂

A screenshot of Val'dran smiling up at Sorn with cat ears affixed to his hair. Sorn, who we see from the back, is reaching out to caress his cheek, head tilted.

Not too differently than what Darius did in the AU we're writing, or to Astarion's reveal in Darius' canon: disappointed in the falsehood and attempted trickery, but since he carries a heavy secret himself, not judging.

He will offer his wrist or neck, depending on approval.

Augustine is Hrvati - from Croatia - in modern AUs, with a lot influence also drawn from Latvian dievturība. <3

(CW- body horror, gore)
Augustine spent a very, very long time trapped in the Feywild under the service of a cruel, inventive creature who was looking for an answer.
Have you seen the movie Annihilation?
Augustine's job was to keep them alive.
He's much harder to scare now.

"Augustine, this was just a 50 minute summary of the Communist Manifesto, followed by ten solid minutes of Wyrms Rock exploding?"

Augustine fails to see the problem.
"Very few films really need to be longer than an hour," he says, and slides a paper over to you, "this is our TNT budget."

Roguish charmers, feisty hot heads and gruff warriors need not apply, Dolly's type is: serious, intense, dour, stoic, grumpily ruffled sorts.
Underneath the sunshine they're a serious person who commits to love wholly and completely - they want someone who would love them as fiercely back.

Honestly? Nothing - after my initial concept, I made the guy and the name just slapped itself right there into the box. Didn't give it a second of thought, he was Augustine.
Maybe some subconscious connection to one of his inspirations, Rasputin? I'm not really sure. It's worked out, anyway

if I've missed an opportunity to post Augustine's back assume it's 'cause I've died
although he's not as muscular as some, he's the proud owner of the sluttiest waist in faerun, so, you know, there's that.

Augustine 'The Endless Truth' is, you're shocked, big on truth. He lies by omission, and guards certain truths close, and understands that to many that would make him a liar. He recognises the commodity of 'truth'.
But he deals in honesty most of all - in his nature, particularly, he cannot lie.

... been running from this one.
CW abuse:
Augustine was nineteen when the deal his mother made came up due. He had never been kissed.
That first, along with much else, was taken from him by the 'man' who claimed him as the price, determined to own all of his willful boy.(1/2)

Day 9: Figging - to insert a ginger into the body for that burning feeling. There's also a smidge of 3-some, shibari and voyeurism, if you squint.

Thank you @werwolfnightwalker.bsky.social for letting me borrow Gohma! ❤️❤️

I spun a wheel and ended up with The Cabin in the Woods.
Darius as a civilian wouldn't do so hot, he'll survive and level the cabin to the ground, but doom the entire world.
And he'll get all kinds of flabbergasted when he meets several siblings on the other side of the glass.
