note: open the images to see full preview. these are from the same fic but separated by a few thousand words lol. a wip i’ve been working on because i got hit with some god!gale feels. the plot is pretty abstract and involves them meeting/fucking in reader’s dreams lmfao. this fic is called “in this part of the story i am the one who dies” based on pablo neruda’s “i do not love you except because i love you.” it will be an au where reader is a humble villager who gets in waaaaaaay too deep with the god of ambition and the two of them get fucked up for each other lol. it’s pretty angsty so i will showcase the happier parts. don’t worry, gale is a “good” god but still a god nonetheless and this version of reader is Not Here For It. reader is not tav btw.

anyone else have a playlist of songs their bard!tav would sing if that kind of music existed in faerun? I have a bardcore playlist for funsies then i have songs my tav would 100% sing if she could 😭

[druidrot]

and why would I really, really not want to attack you?

[druidrot]

also while I’m here…let’s talk about WHY i think unknown / nth is the perfect song for the kind of relationship Gale/Tav will have in “the injury of knowing you” like… this is based on my current playthrough (ranger/bard multiclass lmfao) This tav is a bit chaotic, a bit standoffish but her heart is in the right place and when she cares about someone, she does it fiercely, with no obligations or expectations.

Gale just being totally off guard and so confused about this little idiot that just came up to him and just decided that against all odds she loves him for who he is and not what he could be. That she was his despite his folly. Like. She fell first, he fell harder type of love. Obviously the lyrics fit Gale in this scenario and him just like. Deer in the headlights because what did he do to deserve someone so steadfast for him, someone willing to cross the depths of the hells themselves to keep him on the mortal plane.

Gale fighting his inner ambition because this dumb little bard ranger decided she wanted him and how is he supposed to ascend to godhood and leave her behind? But on the flip side how is he supposed to stay with her when everything he’s ever wanted is closer than ever before?

Sorry yall, I’m deep in the trenches tonight.

Y’all…I’m deep in the hozier pits right now and wasteland, baby just makes me think of Dammon?? I know he’s an NPC that doesn’t get a lot of love but god a romance where he and tav dance around each other, knowing they’re developing feelings but having to skirt around each other till the end of the game…

Specifically the lyrics:

and I love too / and love soon might end

Be known in it’s aching / shown in the shaking

Lately of my wasteland, baby

Like I’m sorry but touch-starved dammon being thrust back into the heat of feeling love after elturel and avernus and a tav so intent on showing him that there’s good in the world for him, that someone can return the kindness and optimism he’s so keen on showing everyone else. A tav so scared to get involved with him because they understand that circumstance has put a target on their back and they don’t want to drag him down with them. So soft and so yearning and so unsure of what the hell to make of these feelings for each other. Dammon being coy because he’s just a blacksmith and tav is the hero of the gate, a figure surely to be spoken of through the ages…okay I’ll shut up now

[druidrot]

Mmmm yes, two of my favorite flavours in Gale's epilogue I'm not sobbing you are

[druidrot]

Dammon ✨

I am abseloutely feral for your gale writing!!! I hope to see him being a munch in the future + added bonus if praise/ devotion in the sense that you are his new religion (if that makes sense)

Rottie your shit is great, you slay, man I have to put on the nice classical music to read your works

-🐛

This ask made me kick my feet and scream into my pillow LORDT

Thank you so much!! This means a ton to me, I fell off the writing bandwagon for literal years and was very nervous to jump back into it but to hear that people actually enjoy it is so SO gratifying after all the self-doubt I’ve been going through. Seriously, this made me almost cry lol. I love you 🐛!!

You’ll be happy to know that I’ve listening to a lot of hozier lately and have become reobssessed with take me to church and well, you know how i’m going to vent those feelings out. More gale brainrot bc apparently that’s all my brain is capable of doing these days. I also have been working on a series for gale that spans thru the entire game with a different chapter focused on the progression in each act. It’s called “the injury of knowing you” and every chapter is inspired by a lyric from Unknown/nth and also some quotes taken from the song of achilles. It’s a very heavy-handed take on the gale romance and is proving to be my apparent passion project.

I love the idiot wizard and the idea of him learning how to love a mortal is just so interesting when he’s basically hardwired to praise/worship his lover as a diety. I can’t wait to share more if ppl are actually interested in this little brain worm 😭

"if i was orpheus i would simply not turn around" yes you would. if you were orpheus and you loved eurydice, you would. to love someone is to turn around. to love someone is to look at them. whichever version of the myth — he hears her stumble, he can't hear her at all, he thinks he's been tricked — he turns around because he loves her. that's why it's a tragedy. because he loves her enough to save her. because he loves her so much he can't save her. because he will always, always turn around. "if i was orpheus i would simply —" you wouldn't be orpheus. you wouldn't be brave enough to walk into the underworld and save the person you love. be serious

[druidrot]

do you do headcanons as well? your writing is so good btw i could just eat it up

Awww, thank you!!! That means so much to me! I haven’t been asked but I would happily do some headcanons if there's a desire for it. A friendly reminder that I’ll only write the bg3 companions + dammon <3

13. You are constantly finding new ways to surprise me.

Rating: Explicit - MDNI

warnings: foreplay, like lots of it. this came out a lil worship-y but gale is a fucking loser and I’m so weak to that shit. i say that with the most love but 😭😭. allusions to good ole’ cunillingus babey!

unsure of the word count

Gale takes his time tonight.

There is no urgency in his actions, no desperation–just pure, unadulterated adoration. His hands are gentle against your skin, soft, like too much pressure might shatter you like glass. He is resolute though, driven, unyielding in the face of his desire for you. He knows exactly how to touch you; he knows exactly where to touch you. It's like your body was made to be known by him, to be loved by him.

You sit comfortably in the big armchair he has nestled in his study, legs spread wide to accommodate his frame. He is kneeled before you like a man devoted; like a man pious, besotted and yearning for you . He looks so very hungry when he turns his gaze up to meet yours, though his smile is soft, beckoning, drawing you in like a moth to a flame. You answer his smile with one of your own, smoothing a hand through his hair as he begins to creep his hands under your dressing gown.

"I will never tire of this," he murmurs, reverent, pressing a soft kiss to the side of your knee. "I will always be starved for you, my star. I will never have enough; there will never be enough to satiate the hunger you inspire.”

You can’t help the silly, lovesick grin that pulls at your lips. To you, he is breathtaking in his want for you, unabashed and proud. You love the way he loves you, so fully, so complete, like this is what the two of you were made to do together. It is intense, all-encompassing, makes your insides twist and turn.

“You spoil me rotten,” you whisper, all sweet smile laced with heavy-handed desire. “I burn for you, Mr. Dekarios. You make me ache.”

He offers a punched-out sound, a chuckle, and his molten eyes darken in the heat of his want. His kisses grow heavy, then, hot where they land on your skin, teasing where they trail up and up and up…

“You are my renewal and ruin all at once,” he breathes, sticky with need. “I am lost to you, my darling. Eternally lost to you.”

You mewl, tangling your fingers in his chestnut hair. “Show me, my love. Show me how you love me.”

He grins a wickedly handsome smile, pressing another hard kiss to the soft flesh of your thigh. He bites down gently, teasingly, basking in the sultry moan that rumbles in your chest.

“Gale,” you urge, pleadingly. “Let me see how lost you are. Let me see what I do to you.”

He squeezes the flesh of your opposite thigh, tongue laving over the little indents his teeth left in your skin. His eyes are sharp, heavy with lust, and you think you might drown in their depths forever.

“How desperate you are,” he teases, hands now moving to push the fabric at your hips up higher and higher. You can only sink further into his touch as his intentions become clear.

“You are constantly finding new ways to surprise me,” he muses, eyes locked on your pleading gaze. “I sometimes forget how eager you are to have me. But no matter, my star. I will happily oblige your desire to be tasted.”

You can only gasp, body pliant, mind foggy, already drunk on him as you surrender to the heat of his mouth.
