You casually return to camp after being missing for days and lay down on your bedroll. As you do, Shadowheart sits up and screams at you in a disheartened tone.
"You! We thought you were dead! Were you going to say anything or just come back and go to bed? Do you have any sense in that head... Actually, I'm sorry for asking. You literally have holes in your brain. Are you compromised? What happened? Are you alright?"
"I'm great." You smile gently, turning over onto your side.
Everyone else begins to stir. Karlach rubs her eyes before they stare at you in shock. "Holy shit!"
"What happened?" Asterion inquires.
"Enslaved for a couple days. Formed a bond. Ultimately it didn't work out and we had to separate-"
"How wholesome..." Asterion mutters.
"-her head from her body." You finished talking.
"So you honey potted one of the cult leaders and now their dead without us having to lift a finger?" Asterion lifts a brow towards the rest of the part.
"I don't mind this."
Shadowheart grits her teeth. "I'm annoyed that you left without saying anything. It was for so long we almost moved on."
You look around at the chamber. It was a forgotten portion of the fortress with markings of Selune. You are surprised Shadowheart could tolerate it. As you are pondering what to say, Asterion leans down and rests a hand on your should.
"Darling, it's time for your nightly donation."
"Nightly?" You smile.
"I was thinking you would enjoy it if you didn't have a say in the matter." There was an amused twinkle in his eyes.
"What do you think?"
"I like." You stand up.
"Uhm... Me and Asterion have something to talk about."
"Oh he's going to suck your blood, is he?" Karlach commented.
"I'm surprised her blood isn't poisonous." Shadowheart lays down and returns to sleep.
"Oh, hold on... Does everyone know?"
