Baldur's Gate 3 Can I Romance Astarion with a Hireling?

Experimenting with what happens when you try to romance Astarion at the post-grove party in Act 1 of Baldur's Gate 3. Even though Tav does not need to be dead for the hirelings to engage in conversation at the party - the post party cutscenes always default to Tav.
My "actor" for this clip was made to look like Damays (Tiefling) using the Magic Mirror so please forgive me if they don't look entirely accurate.
All actors are existing NPCs found in Baldur's Gate 3.
