[ Unfortunately, Alucard does let him talk about this, and the two of them are probably up in here discussing how the smut might give some more insight to deeper meanings and the author's actual preferences.

Keep going.
[ Alucard will 100% continue to listen to Astarion talk about smut books while he brews up a pot of tea. The man will need to shift the topic himself if he wants something else to talk about for the moment. Otherwise, this seems pretty damn pleasant to Alucard as far as topics are concerned. ]
[ Yes...Astarion provides some rather colorful details about all of this, not embarrassed in the slightest to discuss the finer mechanics of nautical smut. He has some places where he points out things are not very realistic, and several complaints about tentacles. But over all, he seems to enjoy this line of superfluous conversation.
At least the tea marks a good breaking point in the topic and once it's all ready Astarion is ready to move on: ]
But enough about that. How have you been enjoying your time as a Paladin? You should write to me more often, I feel as if I know nothing about your goings on.
