Listen. The draw of my bloodweave fic to me is characterisation accuracy. And in the spirit of accuracy I simply cannot envision a universe that doesn't end with God Gale. Like even if you go evil mode and "corrupt" Gale to an extent he'll always disapprove of ascending Astarion, which if they were dating would be enough to convince Astarion not to do it, but Astarion wouldn't disapprove of Gale taking the crown. And Gale would be even MORE motivated to achieve godhood when he's a mortal with an immortal partner who is known to abandon his love interest if they become illithid (which is, to be clear, the correct choice as they are soulless BUT is not the choice Gale makes), giving this full-commitment idealist a bit of a fear of ageing out of his forever-pretty bf's sphere of interest. Like I would love to be convinced that they'd get the good ending but idk

#i feel the only way would be if gale could become fixated on the idea of making astarion mortal instead. because then he'd care less #oh actually maybe I'm lying and can think of a way that it could work. its all about convincing Gale not to become god really #rather than convincing astarion to do it. and i feel like. i know how that could be done #maybe #who knows #anyway pls try and reason me into a good ending or else you're getting “astarion starts burning in the sun and gale dips to find godhood”#bg3 #gale dekarios #astarion ancunin #bloodweave
