I just had to turn down a prancing Wyll. I tried to let him down easy, but he wasn't getting the hint.

Is this what it's like to be a woman? Dudes come prancing up to you out of nowhere like it's their best move, then get bitchy when you don't drop your pants for a two step?

I know I risk summoning the worst of the Internet with this question. I'm still curious if anyone's experienced similar in the game. Maybe I'm way off thinking there's some empathy lessons in here. It's obviously not the message of the game, but maybe one of the messages.

Gale ropes you into his weird romance if you just try to be nice. He's the only one who actually skeeves me out.

Wyll comes on strong, but I don't feel like it's weird per se, just him not getting the subtle hints.

Astarion I love, and he reacts in such an Astarion way when you turn him down.

If you reject Shadowheart, it's like kicking a puppy.

Rejecting Lae'zel is pretty easy, since she's pretty upfront that she just wants to smash at first.

Karlach is way too cool about being turned down for someone so hotheaded. I love her and her big, flaming, mechanical heart.

The half ton of rothé hits on you no matter what too. Like the second conversation with him after he becomes a permanent companion he starts dropping hints in every conversation til you call him names.

are you talking about Halsin?

I was too afraid to ask, I thought we'd gone into spoiler territory over some other shapeshifter.

Nah, that's just the insult you call him when he hits on you. Something like "if I wanted to sleep with a half ton rutting animal I'd find a deep rothe". Paraphrased of course.
