thinking about this one video i saw about ascended astarion and unascended gale in regards to the epilogue and the person was asking basically if gale knows what ascended astarion is up to and the comments annoyed me a little
they were all like “gale’s delulu duh” or “gale goes to bed at 9pm” completely ignoring the banter where gale says he’d indulge in hedonistic debauchery with astarion, and also the fact that he’ll have a space orgy in act 2
the only other people who pointed these out were people who had gale themed accounts…
my guy would not be oblivious, he’d probably be chilling on astarion’s lap or something

IGNTR Headcanons
The IGNTR team are a tight nit family team, despite having a tough exterior. Ray and Gale gets massive headaches trying to make sure their pities and racer don't cause any trouble. Especially Laura and Jackson.
One of the IGNTR’s bosses, Carl Hussell, was determined to have Jackson be the number one racer and beat Lightning McQueen (for both personal and business reasons), that he have Jackson do massive amounts of training.
Only Ray and Gale interact with other teams. The pities and Jackson don’t really interact with the other teams until after the 2017 Piston Cup Championship.
After winning the 2017 Piston Cup Championship, the team celebrated in an arcade that Jackson would go to before he started racing.
Jackson Storm:
Is Japanese-American, with his mother being American and his father Japanese. Is the youngest in the family with two older siblings.
Use to work in the arcade Ray found him at before entering online racing competitions.
Gotten into physical fights and chases with other arcade players. Sometimes the police would get involve, but they never could catch Storm.
Made friends in the arcade, despite all of them wanting to act like their were just acquaintances. Jackson mentally kicked himself when he realizes that he didn't correct Ray when the truck called his friends "friends."
Jackson - despite having trust issues - values loyalty and trust. It's just gonna take awhile for him to warm up to strangers, even longer if they're the competition.
Lightning McQueen and Cruz Ramirez were the only racers Jackson ever trash talk to during races. He doesn't interact with any of the other racers (both veteran and next-gen) until much later.
Jackson can play dirty, especially when pushed to the edge, but he ain't no cheater. If you're paired up with him, and he finds out you cheated, he's not going to cross that finish line for you.
Ray Reverham:
Ray was Jeff’s crew chief before the racer retired and became a sports journalist.
Despite being grateful that IGNTR for hiring him and Jackson, he doesn’t always follow what they say and IGNTR can't really fired him because if Ray goes, then Jackson goes.
After leaving Mr. Biggs, Ray was planning to let Jackson get more free time from training, but IGNTR wanted their racer to be the best as fast as possible despite his objections.
Whenever Jackson or any of the pit crew members messes up big time, he'll have them mop the floors of the IGNTR headquarters for weeks.
After Jackson rammed Cruz to the wall. Ray have Jackson not only mop the IGNTR headquarters floors, but took away his gaming privileges for a month.
The more he trained Jackson, the more he noticed that the racer may have mental health issues than he realizes.
Despite not being his crew chief, Ray is happy that Tim Treadless made it to the racing world.
Gale Beaufort:
The mom of the group who tends to be the one who gives life advice for the team. Even Ray comes to her for advice from time to time.
She the most social of the group and would converse with the other haulers. She even formed a close bond with Mack.
She values her appearance, she just likes being shinny. The team gives her good products to help her fell happy.
One time she wanted to go to a mall and accidentally took Jackson with her. It took Jackson suddenly asking why there were there for Gale to realize she forgot Jackson was still in the trailer. He still teases her about it to this day.
Laura Spinwell and the pities:
Laura Spinwell is the phone addicted, main mechanic of the pities. She is also highly arrogant about being the smartest one of the team who is rarely wrong about anything.
Knows about 95% of racing history, which benefits Jackson, who needs to keep up the “always been a racing fan” image for the press.
Done massive amounts of research on racing tricks that's been done in history. One racing trick she’s research was the 360 flip, but due to the trick never having documented success, she concluded that it was “scientifically” impossible (Laura never consulted with the IGNTR scientists if this trick was possible) and it was just a myth.
Whenever Jackson messes up, Laura would go up to him and do the “idiot sandwich” bit. Jackson and Laura made a deal that if she was ever wrong about anything, he'll get to call her an idiot sandwich for a month. (Laura Spinwell was called an idiot sandwich for a month after the Florida 500 race.)
Laura would have her fellow pities eavesdrop the other teams, while she focuses on their social media accounts. She needs to know if there’s any rumors, drama, or schemes going on for her team. She’s frustrated that almost none of the new Dinoco members (except for Cruz) have any accounts for her to follow.
They all tend to go behind Jackson, Ray, or Gale for protection whenever they get trouble with the other teams. Mostly Jackson, because he doesn’t really ask questions.
