Summary
(formerly “at your mercy”)
Being as beautiful as he was, people wanting him the way they certainly seemed to everywhere they went, it must be impossible for him to feel safe anywhere. To feel whole. To feel like a mind attached to a body rather than floating outside of it. Gods, but he had such a good mind.
… Did he know that? What if he didn’t know that? What if he thought she only wanted his body? Surely he wasn’t that dense?
Oh gods, she realized. He absolutely is.
Without giving it another thought, Mina stood and walked towards his tent.

Summary
“I think, my love, that if we survive this, I have some work to do.”
Mina was suddenly very aware of her breathing. Some combination of hope and heartbreak was seeping into her chest as he spoke.
“You’ve given me so much. I don’t… I don’t think I know how to give anything to anyone that isn’t being taken against my will. I want to learn that. And I have learned a lot from you, but I don’t want you to be my teacher or my test subject. I… I think I need to figure it out on my own.”
He was speaking softly, almost murmuring, and there were explosions in the distance, but he was the only thing Mina could hear.

(Originally titled “Disarmed”)
it just always makes me sad that the timeline of the game is such that when you run off with astarion at the end he's still a baby and you can't let him live his own life for a bit AND have a romantic ending
but i say you can and he deserves it!!!!!!
