#i saw him have an adorable interaction with shadowheart and i just need people to realize how Good of a character he is

[keywhole]

wyll is just as fascinating and deep as the rest of the characters. i’ve seen so many people call him boring when he has gone through LITERAL HELL, made a pact with a devil to save lives and was DISOWNED BY HIS FATHER and he is still smiling. he can’t face himself in the mirror. he has so much self-loathing and guilt behind his honor. he will make the best choice no matter the cost; even his own freedom. so many people love the “hurting prince charming” trope and yet he’s “boring.” come on. also fucking look at him come the hell on

Hi! I saw you were looking for ideas so I'm going to submit a couple if that's okay! Feel free to ignore if not lol

First idea is for Gale (he needs more attention in this fandom!!) Tav who's kind but completely oblivious when it comes to flirting getting hit on and just not picking up on it, how would Gale react or not react? Would his reaction be different if he saw it from afar, up close, or just heard about it? Can be pre-relationship or during :)

Second idea can be for any or all companions (personally tho I think it'd be interesting for astarion, halsin, and gale) Their reactions (separate) to Tav realizing there's mutual attraction so they take them aside and nervously confess that they're asexual and would understand if they don't want to be partners after knowing this about them and that they wanted to tell them before things got serious.

Sorry for rambling in your inbox but I hope this was atleast somewhat helpful :D

Omg yes both I love sm omggg okay imma work on one first then the other. And I totally agree! Gale deserves more attention! I adore that man sm😭❤️ also so sorry it took me a while I have been taking care of my cat who got surgery

Oblivious Tav

Gale x Reader(Tav)

I honestly believe Gale immediately Knew Tav was super oblivious to people Flirting on them And he first found out About it when Lae'zel made the first move. Instead of falling for her words, you just gave her a puzzled look. “I'm sorry Lae’zel. I don't want to fight with you.”

The second time he saw it was with Astarion at The tiefling party. Of course he put his Vampiric charms on you but it just flew past you. And Astarion had this look on his face that made Gale burst out laughing. Some of the tieflings gave him a puzzled look.

Another interaction was when a tiefling was flirting with you. She rubbed your hand up and down softly that he himself even felt the shivers. She had tried to tell Tav how gorgeous they are and how even better they would look under her. But that left you confused. “Why do you want me to lay down?”

Like always, he found it funny because what you say and the other is the person's reaction. But Gale wouldn't lie, he had fallen in love with you the day he taught you how to cast spells just so you could feel what he feels, the magic of it. It was just the way your eyes shined as you looked around you. The moment you Two had made him realize how much he wanted you in his life, read a book beside you, be on his balcony, have a cup of tea or coffee, whatever you like to drink! And just read a book with you, watch the sunset, see the boats sail away, watch the waves of the sea. And just be with you. He loves you.

After that, he did try to make some moves.

Gale didn't know if he should feel bad or

embarrassed for you.

No matter how many times he tries to flirt, it simply just flies Over your head. You two were in the shadowlands and he took so much time and dedication to say those words to you that it simply flew past you. Astarion couldn't help but let a Laugh. Shadowheart was holding hers in. He knew you were obviously but not that much!

He tried it again, a small pick up line and you just stared at him and gods he loves you but oh my god he also is embarrassed when you simply don't get it. He had to actually say those three words.

“What I am trying to say is that I am in love with you. I love you.” Gale says and your eyes go wide at those words. “And I have been trying to make you get the hints that I am really in love with you but it just flies by you. I was thinking it was the tadpole wiggling those words out but that's just how you are.” He says and you feel embarrassed. “Oh.” You say and Gale holds your hands. “I'm in love with you Tav.” and he brings your hands close to his lips, kisses each one hand and looks up at you. “I love you too Gale.” You say and he's more than happy to hear those Words come out.

And even now that you two are together, it simply flies by you. From times you do get his little pick up lines, but there are those other times where it flies by.

But Gale loves that about Tav and finds it cute.

I have nothing more to add to Venus atm but here's the other companions opinions of him + some silly little things

Haldir - clearly he adores Venus and is so extremely gentle and patient with him. If Venus is really struggling, he'll go into his bear form and just cuddle with lion venus in silence so neither have to be "human" at that moment

Astarion - they are best friends, platonic soulmates, not as patient and kind as Haldir but still very sweet because he can relate to what Venus is going through. He tells Venus all the gossip and insists on buying (stealing) the best clothes for him

Gale - good friends !! He's not as close with Venus but he is the one that broke the curse so Venus is very thankful for it. Gale also loves cats and will absolutely cuddle and pamper little cat Venus when needed, as well as help Venus relearn to read/write

Karlach - siblings !! She was going insane when she first saw big lion Venus because !!! Big kitty !!! she wants to cuddle him so bad but has to be careful bc yk fire. "excuse me, he asked for no pickles!" Type dynamic

Shadowheart - relatively neutral, likes Venus but they're not super close. She did tend to his wounds and give him tips for styling his long hair

Lae'zel - does not like Venus very much, mostly because she thought it was stupid to bring a giant lion to the camp, which is fair yk. Most people would not be okay with that and shes very eh skeptical??? Always on guard. She doesn't hate him but she's very suspicious of him. Tbh Venus is terrified of her because she's always sharpening her sword and that reminds him of people preparing before the battles be was forced in😕

Sugar these are so well thought out!! I absolutely love how much you fleshed him out and how I can actually see the companions thinking this way of him especially haldir Astarion and gale! I just think it’s neat how well thought out venus background story is and how he’s bonded with all the characters and how they interact with his different traits or play part of his backstory it’s genuinely super neat
