I can raise math, English and science scores in a district more by offering free breakfast and lunch, than by banning cell phones.
But one feels like punishment and blaming bad, lazy, kids, and the other requires acknowledging adults' role in creating a dystopian environment not ideal for learning.

#tavqotd What class are your Tav/Durge and their LI? How does this affect their relationship?
Bards and Rogues synergize so, so well. Ria and Astarion bonded over more than just how nicely she could set him up in battle, but it certainly didn't hurt. Also, he thinks vicious mockery is funny.

#tavqotd What class are your Tav/Durge and their LI?
How does this affect their relationship? Do they accept each other's classes or dislike at all? Do they teach each other about their own class? And if they have the same class: How does it work?

#tavqotd Did your tav/durge get Volo'd, or was it someone else who unfortunately suffered him? Does anybody get the hag eye in your party?
No one took the hag eye because Ria would have smacked that person so hard their grandparents would feel it. No one got Volo'd either

#tavqotd What characteristic (physical, personality, and others) does your Tav/Durge admire most in their LI?
Ria thinks Astarion is incredibly brave and staggeringly resilient and respects the hell out of him for both things. It inspires her to fight back against her own fears.

#TavQOTD Who usually does what when having sex? Do they switch it up, or are they more comfortable with a specific role?
Ria and Astarion usually play/have sex without power play because of Astarion's history. But Ria *does not* sub. Beyond that, acts are very, very flexible.

If he hadn't confessed to the manipulation and asked for something real, I do not know how long it would have taken Ria to speak up. Maybe act 3. I mean it when I say he's good for her.

#TavQOTD Who fell first? Who fell harder? Did they recognize their feelings right away, or were they in denial?
Ria and Astarion had matching 'oh no' moments in the wake of the 'I'll be your mirror' conversation. Neither one of them was prepared to deal with the feelings yet. Astarion was braver!

Ria has her harp and her emotional support music box. She loves them for their ability to create music/let her create music, because of the fond memories attached to the harp. The music box...

Why does your OC have sex (Stress relief? Their way of feeling attractive? Socializing? Etc)? #TavQotD
Ria said yes to Astarion's offer in part to relieve stress. She's also fond of it as a way of being close to her partner, and she's not big on casual sex in general

A thing Ria and I have in common is that if people do not reach back, she will take that as a sign that either the person does not want to be friends, or that they're not a good match. It has to be a two-way street.
Meanwhile, while I'm far more interested in befriending people in general than Ria

#tavqotd Your Tav/Durge is trying go make friends, how do they accomplish this?
Ria is a fan of small talk as Social Noises. She reaches out to people in her space because that's what you *do* to have a community (see: Zevlor, tieflings). Sharing her time and space is a sign she wants to be friends

#TavQOTD How does your Tav/Durge like to decorate for the holidays?
Ria scatters soft lights through her living space. She hasn't been settled in one area where she could celebrate since her university days, so she takes a few goes to figure out what she likes— well, what she and her community like

#TavQotD What existing literature describes your Tav/Durge and their relationship?
♥️B: How does your Tav/Durge feel about literature in setting?
Ria *loves* reading. She's even less of a romance novel reader than I am and has a fondness for tragedies and really anything she can get her teeth into.
