      8: Laezel making adorable eyes as she asked Geoff how he knew what to get her
      9: Karlach's sharp teef right before she bit into the xbox's power chord
      10: Shadowheart healing Karlach after she bit through the cord and Wyll checking up on her. Gale and Laezel hugging each other in fear of the mysterious box while Astarion didn't give a damn 🤣

    The bottle Astarion holds out at 0:26 is from 1972. Since it's It's 1492 DR in the D&D timeline, this must refer to Earth years. Toril is written to have a connection to Earth. Earth's time measurement is about 630 years ahead of Toril's. So, as of Baldur's Gate, it's about 2122 on Earth.
    Astarion has had that bottle for 150 years. He cracked it open for this special occasion and then threw it on the ground.

    As someone who is currently falling in love with your game (and characters!), I must say, this is PERFECT! 😂 It has all the cute social interactions, chemistry and humour I so love! Every character is so cute in this! You can't leave one unattented for even a minute! How Lae'zel adores her present and how you can hear her offscreen, licking the x-box despite Gale's plea, haha.
    Astarion's "For Fuck's sake!" is adorable (though him being adorable in a way is his thing, I guess), as is him freezing (it's nice if someone else shares the freeze!) and sitting on Karlach's knees, hahaha! With Shadowheart on her other side, love it! Or Wyll, with his present. Or Gale, adoring Tara. Gosh. I could watch a whole series of those! It's so well balanced.
    And how do you get all these outstanding voiceactors? Even the Santa-Elf is awesome!
    Thanks for your hard work, love it a lot.
