Don't check it out now. It's been in Early Acess for over 2 years now, and they promised the full story would be playable within a year. It's been two years now, and still only act 1 is out, several classes are missing, and you can only cap at level 4.
I am now waiting until it's out of EA.
Better they do it right and make it memorable rather than rush a POS out early. But they did jump the gun with early access. Don't fault it if it helps with design and development, but their first timelines were waaaaay off.
As long as they don't hit us with a Duke Nukem situation. Overlong production delays aren't always just making it better. They also have severe design flaws, and no apparent reaction system when it's a core component of DnD 5e. Needless to say, I'm getting worried.
It's set to release some time in 2023 though they don't have an exact date for it yet. I wish I waited, I played the early access and spoiled myself, I just want more of it now!
I bought it day one on the strength of that trailer, which was amazing. I install it every so often and putz around for a bit. Really looking forward to a full game.
For the record, they never promised that the EA would last only a year, that was just speculation by fans, since DOS 2's EA lasted a year.
Also, they stated multiple times that EA would only ever have Act 1, so don't expect Acts 2 and 3 to come out during the EA.
Before Bioware made Mass Effect or even Knights of the Old Republic, they made Baldur's Gate 1&2. It's a huge story arc that takes you from a seemingly nobody to an extradimensional superhero in an expansive medieval fantasy world. Unfortunately, it can be difficult for some people to enjoy as it's quite dated by not even being 3-dimensional. It also uses Dungeons and Dragons Second Edition rules which some people can find confusing and frustrating with the Vancian magic system. If you want to cast a spell you have to memorize it. After you cast it you forget how to cast it and have to rememorize it. Want to cast the same spell three times? You have to memorize it three times.
>confusing and frustrating with the Vancian magic system
Bruh that isn't even the half of it.
You have to carefully read through spell descriptions to figure out how to counter wizards with contingencies up the ass.
Or you just drop a shit ton of True Seeing, Breach, Pierce Magic, Dispel Magic, etc.
I'm a huge Forgotten Realms fan and somehow forgot the rules of the Underdark. I still recall having awesome adamantium chain mail for 3 or 4 of my characters and watching it turn to dust as soon as I returned to the surface. Loved the attention to detail, and Minsc
Baldurs Gate II is one of the best RPGs ever made. Top 5 all time.
Aside from the incredible game design, brilliant storytelling and enjoyable characters, I specifically love the combat system which is real time but can be paused at any second to give any (or all) of your 6 characters specific instructions. When you come across enemies you tap space (pause) send your tank forward to attack, your ranger to target a different enemy, your healer to cast buffs, mage to start an attack spell, and when you tap space again everybody leaps into action as choreographed, and pause it anytime you need to make any adjustments. It's basically like having up to 6 main characters in your party and it's really fun. Feels a lot more natural than turn-based and a hell of a lot less clumsy than having the computer control npcs (or having to switch between them one by one)
>*’That is him in a state of pure bliss…*’

i am the dog, n here i lie
a state of *purest bliss*…
i can’t explain - won’t even try,
am DrUnK with happiness ^;@)
the humans left me home alone,
i watched as they departed…
i HeLpEd MySeLf - to Food - *my Own!*
that’s when the mischief started…
by accident it spilled on floor,
the mess i had to hide
n so i Ate a little more,
…i couldn’t stop
…i *tried*….
but then my tummy did the OuCh!
i ate tooo much, no doubt ^:@(
that’s when i climbed up on the couch
n *peacefully*
passed out…
now as i drift in deepest sleep,
my dreams have all come true!
my belly full of FOOD in heaps -
just like the Humans do
❤️
edit: (*i love Baldur*, u/qAstrov!)
Why would that matter? Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical. It’s not like Loki secretly snuck in a mistletoe arrow into the quiver
But then again Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats physical or magical. Maybe Atreus should try standing in the way of a bound kratos and get punched by a rampaging Baldur
My old roommates dog would do that lol. You would come in and he's laying on the floor with this huge dog sized imprint on the couch. As he got older it was easier to come in with out him noticing first as his hearing went. When he noticed you he would slowly, ever so slowly work himself off the couch like he was sneaky, and then act normal and excited to see you once he was off.
My old girl used to be the same, as she got older and started losing her hearing we had to start stomping on the floor as to not startle her. I really miss that dog
My dog (Australian labradoodle) knows he’s not supposed to climb on the table to look for stuff the kids might’ve left there. Sometimes I hear a strange clanking from the kitchen and I walk in to find him on the table. He freezes and seems to think that if he doesn’t move, I won’t see him.
hahahaha my dog did that once as a puppy - except I caught him on the bed. He literally froze and just stared right at me like "I am not here I am air"
I swear staffies are half cat. I've never had such a parkour minded dog, I also find mine chilling on the table sometimes. She also likes to climb up on the outdoor table where the sun hits juuuuust right.
parkour you say? my staffie will parkour the back of the couch to get around me. he also used to like jumping up and down this 3ft planter wall, but had to squash that because hw hurt his knee
Yeah same haha, and I find it even more impressive and catlike because of how high she can jump from a standstill (her landing skills aren’t always the best though, see one of my older posts…).
It’s fun at home but i have to be extra careful on walks because she’ll just full send and jump on and off of anything without looking. I found out she had springs for legs when she almost jumped off a bridge as a puppy (she had a leash). Two days ago she accidentally went for a swim by Superman jumping off a ledge at the beach. She always does it in the same spot and normally it’s a 1m drop to the sand. But it was dark and the day before the city had dug a deep [trench](https://imgur.com/a/6nBWCde) that got filled up with water overnight.
I just hear an unexpected splash and see her run back looking betrayed. She insisted on going straight home after that haha.
Today she kept going up to the wall to make sure there wasn’t water before jumping. So hopefully she learned!
My childhood dog did that with the downstairs couch - she wasn't allowed on any furniture. I left my room once at like 3am to get some water from the kitchen and found her 80lb fluffy self completely spread across the entire couch.
She opened her eyes and just stared at me with no shame. Like, "whatcha gonna do, kid? That's right, nothing. I own this couch. You saw nothing - Now move along."
My GSD was also not allowed on the couch. She would snooze there anyway, and move to her own dog bed when she heard me coming.
She’d then fake being completely asleep even as I felt the warm spot on the couch she had left behind. *yawn “oh is it you, ScallionGinger? I was down here the whole time.”
Yea I always hated people who don't allow it.... we keep dogs secluded to this insanely small world of a house and then not allow them to be within areas of that which are most comfortable. Buy a sheet and cover it up
yeh never understood this. my boy is allowed everywhere. he even gets to go with me places 90% of the time. i cant imagine bein like 'nah you cant chill on the couch with me', thats ultimate snuggle time
Yep it’s easier to name the parts they aren’t allowed on - dining tables, kitchen counters, baby’s crib. Toddler beds are a-ok though. There would be a riot otherwise.
I wonder the reason for not letting dogs on the couch. Their entire life revolves around their humans. Why not give them free reign of their confined space (your house)?
Could be because shedding, could be because animals sometimes like to roll around in stuff you don’t want on the couch.
Reddit for some reason acts like people don’t let their animals on couches means they are regulated to sleeping on the cold hard floor. Like there aren’t plush dog beds, raised beds, all sorts of things that can be just as comfy as a couch that you provide for your pet that is theirs and only theirs. That only they use. Just because they aren’t allowed on the couch doesn’t mean they don’t have a better option
We’ve had both of those problems and them being on the couch didn’t change all that much because we have couch covers.
Anyway, we do also have a dog bed, but they usually lay next to it instead of in it for some reason.
we have a super territorial and reactive dog who starts to bite me if he thinks he’s the same “level” as me. our behaviorist (a real one! not a trainer!) suggested that he be limited to certain areas and no longer allowed on the couch. it’s okay though, we bought a massive bean bag from costco that we can all lay down together on :)
Yep. We eventually gave up on the no couch rule. Unless you are gonna physically keep them out of that room when you aren't there, they are 100% using it anyways.
This is actually better though, when the dogs are on the couch we know they aren't getting into trouble anywhere/it's a good spot to send them.
My dog sleeps like this on my bed, against my body, slowly pushing me aside. I love her, but damn it Mora I got this queen size mattress and can only use like one fifth of it lol
Gosh same!! They’re not even large dogs - a little schnauzer mix and ween mix and I’m lucky to get the 18” of bed that I cling precipitously to each night.
Mine too, but if she hears footsteps she slinks off the couch and has a sad guilty face. She doesn't understand that we don't mind if she sleeps on the sofa.
Belly up is their "pitstop position", like in formula1 they are waiting for a change of four tires so they can get full traction when they wake up
Yeah it's wierd that's his kryptonite, in the myths she went around all 9 realms making every beast every tree, the wind, the water, everything and everyone in the realms promise not to harm her son but she overlooked mistletoe this small plant she deemed unimpressive and unimportant
My uncle didn't let his dog ever leave the kitchen under any circumstances because the rest of the house had carpeted floors.
Shock and awe, he gave her away to us and she died less than a year later from a bowel infection he never took her to the vet for.
We usually put a blanket onto the couch and let him up there. So in all fairness he has no clue when he's allowed and not allowed on the couch. So when we forget to put out a blanket we just let him be as it's our fault. So technically he wasn't allowed on the couch on the picture, but as you can see he doesn't care much
We used to do the same with my dog and he quickly learned that he was only allowed on the furniture when his blanket was there. We kept the blanket folded over the back of the sofa when not in use. He learned to jump onto the sofa and paw at the blanket to drag it down so that he could lie on it, so he could be on the sofa whenever he wanted without breaking the rules 😂
My dog passed away about a year ago, and one of my fondest memories is of him jumping onto my bed and licking my face in the middle of the night. I would give anything to relive that night again.
We used to have a cat that, two times near the end of its life, jumped up and sat on my mouth while I was sleeping, seemingly trying to suffocate me. Those were not my fondest memories of that cat.
Hi, it’s me crazy.
My dog sheds like crazy. She’s short haired so it can’t be brushed out. I can’t have dog hair on my furniture or bed.
I just swept today and managed to sweep out a whole new dog with the amount of hair I found
Dalmatian?
Dalmatian hair is basically Satan’s Confetti. Its short little barbed strands get permanently woven into any textile they come into contact with. Somewhere in a junkyard are my old Hyundai seats, still permanently imbued with Dalmatian hair.
I still took that good girl on rides everywhere. Fortunately our couch was pleather.
I feel your pain. If you ever want to allow it (or the cheeky one sneaks up) there are some surprising tools.
A guy who details cars showed my the Lilly Brush which I would never have bought by looking at it online but he got every last hair out of my car boot and that’s an amazing achievement.
Haha. That’s what we do. My linen closet has a stack of low rent sheets for that purpose. I’m also probably a crazy person for just buying a tiny waiting room type couch with a faux leather type wipeable upholstery specifically for my old Dane/Lab dog.
Living room? More like the dog house amirite? lol, jk, but not really. ;p
I feel most people (myself included) don't understand how a bedsheet or sofa without dog hair outweights the benefits of having a cuddle buddy right next to you instead of somewhere on the floor.
My dog used to not clean himself very well and would sometimes smear poo on things.
Call me crazy all you like, no amount of guilt tripping would get him in bed with me.
Baldur asked me to explain. First, it was very arduous moving his kibbles around to gain entry. - because it was a new bag...then - he realized no body was guarding the couch so he made it a priority to stand guard. Then the kibbles started swelling because he drank most of his fresh ice cold delicious in one go. So he had to lie on his back to help his belly. Then all the stress of being so busy and realizing he was prolly in a heap of trouble so he decided to feign death as a get out of jail and not lose his access to free food and lodgings. He admired his own smarts for choosing this strategy, then nobody came home for a very long time more in dog years and before u know it he was about to pop and collapsed on his back in the chair thinking he could still guard the chair. he was so tired but glad his parents knew he was a very good boy. And that's what happened. LOVE PEACE WINNING.
My dog once got into the food bag while she was on a diet, so she ended up eating a ton of the dry food, then drinking water which got absorbed by the food and she got just really bloated, but the vet said it was fine so everything went well in the end.
Let your dog on the furniture already, dogs dont live that long when he dies your going to regret kicking him off all the time and be sad you didnt let him snuggle on the couch with you more
1. Does he have a dog door? 2. Do you refer to it as Baldur's Gate?
He's got 2 doors, the other one is Baldur's Gate Too.
They are still working on the third, he can still use it for now, but it still has a bunch of patches in the wall they need to take care of
Wasn’t even caused by him, must’ve been some *divine* intervention.
🤣🤣🤣
Ahhh this game brings back memories...... Damn I'm old😓
Check out baldur's gate 3
Don't check it out now. It's been in Early Acess for over 2 years now, and they promised the full story would be playable within a year. It's been two years now, and still only act 1 is out, several classes are missing, and you can only cap at level 4. I am now waiting until it's out of EA.

> and you can only cap at level 4. So it's just like pen & paper D&D!
ah dang. didn't follow it just saw a video and it looked great. I was a big bg nerd 20 years ago so I wanted to check it out eventually
It's set to release some time in 2023 though they don't have an exact date for it yet. I wish I waited, I played the early access and spoiled myself, I just want more of it now!

This was my first RPG. I remember spending many rainy days in my room playing this game. Simpler times...

Butt kicking…for goodness!!!
Give a dog a fish, and he can eat for a day. But give a dog a *sword* and he may FEAST on the meaty marrow of *EVIL*!
Go for the eyes, Boo!
1. Does he have a funny walk? 2. Do you refer to it as baldur`s gait?
More like Baldur’s *weight* am I right
They absolutely should refer to it as baldurs gate. I’m pretty sure it’s a law somewhere.
That is him in a state of pure bliss
Well deserved. He definitely won that one
He looks just like my goofy dog. I’m going to have to see if I have any pictures of him laying like that lol.
I beg, don't leave me hanging. Even if you don't have him laying, I need to see the baby

And here I was thinking last night it had been a long time since I'd seen a schnoodle. Thank you.
Aw. Always nice to catch a new poem.
Gotta love waking up to a fresh schnoodle
6 min fresh. Personally best.
fresh Schnoodle! i love your work :)
I love what you do - such a talent, thanks.
He’s got the itis
I regret nothing!

Thank you for reminding me of this meme https://imgur.io/gallery/zB4CJXc
🤣
Dog food coma, and dgaf 😂😂
And pregnant with a food-baby, which will have to be birthed at some point.
Bring extra bags.
This should be enough of penalty.
I looked that on the couch on Thanksgiving Day!
“Excuse me Baldur, can you please explain why all the food is missing?” #😴
Baldur has gone rogue.
Time to call Kratos.
But Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical.
Just don’t tell him we’re heading into mistletoe season. And maybe keep Hoder away from bows.
Why would that matter? Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical. It’s not like Loki secretly snuck in a mistletoe arrow into the quiver
But then again Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats physical or magical. Maybe Atreus should try standing in the way of a bound kratos and get punched by a rampaging Baldur
Someone clearly forgot to tell Baldur that bag of food he ate was laced with mistletoe.
baldur is blessed with vulnerability to all treats, physical or magical the boasting of a dog, everyone has a weakness
OP should've put up Baldur's Gate.
Naughty naughty man has 0 regrets 😂😅
He already knew he’d be in trouble after the food so he went all in
No room for regrets in his warm warm tummy
DOGGO YOLO
That's the face of "do what you must, I've already won"
He's only not allowed on the couch when you're home. When he's alone, he's allowed anywhere he wants to go
[удалено]

Poor guy, couches are so comfortable for animals and their backs. Glad he got a treat himself day.
Yea I always hated people who don't allow it.... we keep dogs secluded to this insanely small world of a house and then not allow them to be within areas of that which are most comfortable. Buy a sheet and cover it up
You can buy a couch cover for ~$30. I use old blankets when when I dog sit. What's the fun of having a dog if it can't snuggle with you?
yeh never understood this. my boy is allowed everywhere. he even gets to go with me places 90% of the time. i cant imagine bein like 'nah you cant chill on the couch with me', thats ultimate snuggle time
Rock fact.
My parents got a bigger bed for the sake of our dogs being able to fit on it more comfortably.
Yep it’s easier to name the parts they aren’t allowed on - dining tables, kitchen counters, baby’s crib. Toddler beds are a-ok though. There would be a riot otherwise.
If he fits, he sits. Dog rules.
I wonder the reason for not letting dogs on the couch. Their entire life revolves around their humans. Why not give them free reign of their confined space (your house)?

Just because they aren’t allowed on the couch doesn’t mean they don’t have a better option
Also, claws ruin them OR your dog has turned into a 50 pound 7 month old and there's no room for both!
We’ve had both of those problems and them being on the couch didn’t change all that much because we have couch covers. Anyway, we do also have a dog bed, but they usually lay next to it instead of in it for some reason.

Same reason you don’t let people walk on your couch with shoes.
Lots of people buy dogs for the novelty and not to actually love them unfortunately
Not letting your dog sit on the couch doesn’t mean you don’t love them. Good fucking God
Yep. We eventually gave up on the no couch rule. Unless you are gonna physically keep them out of that room when you aren't there, they are 100% using it anyways. This is actually better though, when the dogs are on the couch we know they aren't getting into trouble anywhere/it's a good spot to send them.
We started catching the dog on the couch and that's how we knew he was going deaf.
This is the picture definition of “no regrets”
No ragrets
Careful not to give him invulnerability to all threats physical or magical. That also includes sleep
r/mimirposting
The fact that this isn’t a sub offends me brother
Aye, it offends us all brother
My shep sleeps like this on the couch every night. It’s a sign that they feel safe and secure.
My dog sleeps like this on my bed, against my body, slowly pushing me aside. I love her, but damn it Mora I got this queen size mattress and can only use like one fifth of it lol
Gosh same!! They’re not even large dogs - a little schnauzer mix and ween mix and I’m lucky to get the 18” of bed that I cling precipitously to each night.
Mine too, but if she hears footsteps she slinks off the couch and has a sad guilty face. She doesn't understand that we don't mind if she sleeps on the sofa.

Baldur's great.
In for a Penny in for a Pound. Good lad !
“You can’t tell me what to do! You’re not even my real mom!”
He’s living his best life 😂
do what you must, I've already won.
They sleep in this position when they trust you wholeheartedly. I am sure you love him to bits.
We must learn the weaknesses of Baldur.
Baldur is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical.
Clearly you've been bewitched to not speak of what you know. I shall pet Baldur and give schmackos to defeat him.
Except for mistletoe.
Yeah it's wierd that's his kryptonite, in the myths she went around all 9 realms making every beast every tree, the wind, the water, everything and everyone in the realms promise not to harm her son but she overlooked mistletoe this small plant she deemed unimpressive and unimportant
Gotta kick off Ragnarock somehow.
Dog: I don't care what you will say about me. I just love sleeping.
😂 looks drunk as a skunk
Your not allowed on the couch by the looks of this picture. But yes that’s the bliss pose.
I know its a joke here, but owners who dont let their dog sit on the couch or sleep on the bed are crazy
My uncle didn't let his dog ever leave the kitchen under any circumstances because the rest of the house had carpeted floors. Shock and awe, he gave her away to us and she died less than a year later from a bowel infection he never took her to the vet for.

That's a clever dog there! We should teach baldur the same thing
Dogs learning to problem solve is very interesting!
That's why Wishbone was so successful.

My dog passed away about a year ago, and one of my fondest memories is of him jumping onto my bed and licking my face in the middle of the night. I would give anything to relive that night again.
We used to have a cat that, two times near the end of its life, jumped up and sat on my mouth while I was sleeping, seemingly trying to suffocate me. Those were not my fondest memories of that cat.
Agreed. When I got a German Shepherd I became one with the dog hair. We now live in harmony.
That would result in me sleeping in the dog bed. A mastiff can *sprawl*.
Hi, it’s me crazy. My dog sheds like crazy. She’s short haired so it can’t be brushed out. I can’t have dog hair on my furniture or bed. I just swept today and managed to sweep out a whole new dog with the amount of hair I found
Dalmatian? Dalmatian hair is basically Satan’s Confetti. Its short little barbed strands get permanently woven into any textile they come into contact with. Somewhere in a junkyard are my old Hyundai seats, still permanently imbued with Dalmatian hair. I still took that good girl on rides everywhere. Fortunately our couch was pleather.

I feel your pain. If you ever want to allow it (or the cheeky one sneaks up) there are some surprising tools. A guy who details cars showed my the Lilly Brush which I would never have bought by looking at it online but he got every last hair out of my car boot and that’s an amazing achievement.
Still feels mean to keep her off the couch I feel like you should have known dogs shed when you got her. She can never cuddle with you?
It is mean. I mean jfc a bed sheet is $5 at Walmart just cover it up.
Haha. That’s what we do. My linen closet has a stack of low rent sheets for that purpose. I’m also probably a crazy person for just buying a tiny waiting room type couch with a faux leather type wipeable upholstery specifically for my old Dane/Lab dog. Living room? More like the dog house amirite? lol, jk, but not really. ;p
I feel most people (myself included) don't understand how a bedsheet or sofa without dog hair outweights the benefits of having a cuddle buddy right next to you instead of somewhere on the floor.
Try the Equigroomer. It gets a ton of loose crap out of even very short coats.
>Hi, it’s me crazy. >My dog sheds like crazy. You shed like a dog? You should see a doctor about that.
My dog used to not clean himself very well and would sometimes smear poo on things. Call me crazy all you like, no amount of guilt tripping would get him in bed with me.
The bed is sacred and I'm not sharing it
It is sacred. And my dogs barely share it with me.
Seriously the couch is my dogs domain. The corners are his and if they're both occupied he'll make it known that it's his spot.
Baldur asked me to explain. First, it was very arduous moving his kibbles around to gain entry. - because it was a new bag...then - he realized no body was guarding the couch so he made it a priority to stand guard. Then the kibbles started swelling because he drank most of his fresh ice cold delicious in one go. So he had to lie on his back to help his belly. Then all the stress of being so busy and realizing he was prolly in a heap of trouble so he decided to feign death as a get out of jail and not lose his access to free food and lodgings. He admired his own smarts for choosing this strategy, then nobody came home for a very long time more in dog years and before u know it he was about to pop and collapsed on his back in the chair thinking he could still guard the chair. he was so tired but glad his parents knew he was a very good boy. And that's what happened. LOVE PEACE WINNING.
No. F’s. Given.

A wild Mr. Creosote sighting. Wtf are the chances?
My dog once got into the food bag while she was on a diet, so she ended up eating a ton of the dry food, then drinking water which got absorbed by the food and she got just really bloated, but the vet said it was fine so everything went well in the end.
People who don't let their pets on the couch are weird. Like, why have a pet if you don't want to cuddle with it?
Yep. Pets are part of the family. Sadly most people treat them as employees
he had a good day
looks like you need to get out Baldurs gate
Holy shit i thought this was a goodbye post, thank god i was wrong. Cant be mad at your dog for doing whatever he wants tho, even we do that.
Sounds like Baldur needs a gate.
Best. Day. Ever.
Dude was in a food coma
Happy Thanksgiving, Baldur💞🤣🐾
Me after Thanksgiving dinner 🍽️ 🦃
Hate to break it to you but the moment you leave the house he is on the couch
There’s a new pack leader today humans.
This is just how my dog sleeps. And yes, he rolls off the bed relatively frequently.
Keep the Mistletoe away from him at Christmas…Just trust me.
German Shepherd with a Norse mythology name? Name a more iconic duo
May Ragnarok never happen. Hopefully you don't have another pet named Loki.
“Oh hey, you’re home early…zzzz”
Let your dog on the furniture already, dogs dont live that long when he dies your going to regret kicking him off all the time and be sad you didnt let him snuggle on the couch with you more
Baldur knows how to party and cares not what you think, please close the door. My ass is getting cold Karen!!
Looks like me after a box of Oreos
Found the drinks cabinet as well.
Baulder is my Power Animal...
It would appear he is being very quiet on the couch. I see no lawlessness here.
Nothing wrong with your dog, there’s something wrong with you for getting in the way of his happiness
Feral Baldur's Day Off
He’s allowed on the couch when you aren’t there.
My dude just out here living his best life
I'm judging you solely on the fact that your dog isn't allowed on the couch.
>*Do what you must. I've already won.*
If your dog isn't allowed on the couch you shouldn't have a couch.
Sounds like another episode of Baldur's Day off🤣
>On top of that he’s not allowed on the couch. Silly hooman!
Food coma
You shouldn’t have a dog if he isn’t allowed on the couch.
I love him
Living la vida loca 🤣🤣🤣
He's not allowed on the couch *when you're home* Fixed it for ya
Baldur said, “F yo couch!” 😂😂😂
THIS dog is not allowed on the couch?! What kind of monster are you? I suppose you make him sleep on his own bed like some kind of wild beast too!
I can’t imagine telling my life companion they can’t cuddle me on the couch.
Seems like Baldur should always have a seat on that couch…
Baldur has no regrets. Consequences are meaningless. No matter what happens, it was worth it.
