what if the always amazing gale of waterdeep did one of those 80’s style televised dating profiles? <3
full and total credit to Fae Galicaea or @/faedoesntrun on tiktok for requesting this cameo from tim downie, it was such a hilarious and wonderful idea I’m sobbing <3
As someone who turns 30 this month one of the many things I like about Baldur's Gate 3 is that it normalizes finding love later in life.
Everyone around seems to get married and starts families, but it's okay. Gale has gray strands in his hair and is single after an intense relationship. Halsin is middle aged even in elf terms and has had myriads of lovers but no-one to settle down with. Astarion did not have the freedom to find himself and therefore love for almost all his life. Minthara has been too devoted to her job/cult for 200 years. Karlach and Shadowheart are at least in their late twenties.
It's fine if it hasn't happened yet. The right person just has not been tadpoled by now.
(Edit: I know now Shadowheart is at least 40. Thanks for clearing that up)
