Astarion considers the player to be in a relationship (partnered) with him after his relationship progression event in Act Two (as described earlier) if the correct options are selected during this cutscene. If the player has entered the partnered stage with another companion prior to this scene triggering and wish to pursue a romance with the spawn, they will need to interact with Astarion in camp (before resolving the episode that lead to romance progression) to trigger the dialogue where they will have to choose between the pretendents. While Astarion, unlike most other companions, is not a monogamous type, the player can only be in the partnered stage with one origin companion.
