Hey sweetie, could you please write some comfort headcanons about Gale, Wyll, Astarion and Halsin (if that's not too many) helping their S/o recover from jaw surgery? So their partners face is really swollen , they're in tons of pain and they have to be on an all liquid diet and all that - I'd love to have something to read in the hospital while I'm recovering! If you need clarification on details please don't hesitate to reach out! Thank you so so much!!
Tav recovers from jaw surgery
Fandom: Baldur's Gate 3
Characters: Gale, Wyll, Astarion, Halsin
Plot: Tav is not feeling so well after jaw surgery and requires comfort
Warnings: Surgery... the plot of this is legit about surgery recovery...
A/N: Hi lovie, I'm so sorry this took so long for me to get out, heckin almost 2 months now. Mental Health took a big hit, got better, then another big hit lmao. I hope this is what you wanted <3 (i didn't do Halsin since I don't know his character well)
Gale
He would be the absolute sweetest, and perhaps the second best person to care for you in this moment
As a wizard, he has access to an insane amount of knowledge and tools that will help in your recovery
Gale crafts different kinds of pain management potions, hoping that at least one of them will help
When the pain becomes too much, and no amount of medicine will help he tends to hesitate for a split second
He's unsure as to what to do in that moment except to hold you close and press the softest of kisses to your cheeks
Whatever it is you need in that moment, simply ask, write it down, or sign it to him and he is immediately on it
Gale is canonically the cook of the camp, which translates well to when you're stuck on a liquid diet.
Makes the absolute best soups known to man-kind
and tea, oh my gosh, his tea is amazing to help soothe your jaw from the inside
He makes it with special magic herbs that provide warmth to soothe the soreness
His real secret ingredient though? Chamomile, a floral tea bursting with flavor that lessens the swelling
Overall, 10/10 would be taken care of by Gale
Wyll
Sweet sweet boy
He's so damn proud of you for going through such a terrifying procedure
Wyll's aware of how nervous you were to go through with it, and the fact you did- Gods, he's so proud
He wouldn't know too much about how to handle the proper care, aside from the instructions given by the Doctors and Nurses
So he would definitely follow the papers to the T. No straying away from it
"Sweetheart, the paper said you-" is a constant statement in your household now
Tries his absolute hardest to make tasty liquid meals for you, some are amazing, others are downright horrid. Absolutely no in between
Wyll definitely has some sort of guilt regarding the liquid diet, feeling awful that you can only have liquids whereas he can have anything he wants
So he took it upon himself to join you on said liquid diet
You know that Simpsons meme, "It's "uter-us," not "uter-you."
That's Wyll when it comes to your recovery, you two are in this together, and he will do what is necessary to help you
If you want kisses at all from this man, you better prepare to convince him for 15 minutes that he wont hurt you
He's aware of how painful it is, and is worried he may hurt you in some way
which he wont. but still
9/10 caretaker, absolute sweetheart but too much of a worrywart
Astarion
He understands the basics of healing as he himself has had to care for his own injuries by himself
but this is different, you're not alone in this, and he refuses to leave your side
Someone he adores, someone he loves with all his heart just went through a traumatic surgery, so yeah, he is not leaving your side once
Astarion insists on taking care of everything for you, announcing you as bedridden until you are healed
He ensures you take all your meds on time, fluffs the pillows, brushes your hair and cares for you 24/7
Finished your third book this week? Here's another one, Love.
Too tired to read yourself? Don't worry, rest your pretty little eyes, He'll read it aloud
Astarion does everything nearly perfect, if not a little overbearing. All except one thing
The food
He is definitely not a cook, sure, he can make a solid omelet, but are you able to eat it currently? nope
Tried to make a soup for you on the first day you got home... he doesn't want to talk about it
And so he enlists Gale to help create meals for you to accommodate your liquid diet
Astarion is definitely the biggest lovebug in regards to your healing, constantly pressing kisses wherever he can
cuddling you as you sleep with you head against his chest
holding you so so close, you can almost hear a heartbeat in the vampires chest
8/10, a babe but please just let Tav walk around

The fucking Scientific Instrument Class Pseudocons apparently developed what they're calling "Hetero Sapience" and are corrupting the brainmodules of the non-Pseudo 'cons around them by using annoying xenophilosophy words. Soundwave tells me they're 'Greek' and 'Latin' words, apparently. Cool, I guess?
Anyway, if you see any SI Class 'cons causing... issues, just try your hardest to turn your brainmodule off before you start getting infected with their weird lingo, alongside all the other issues pertaining to letting the SI Pseudocons transmit data into your brainmodule in their own weird ways.
Thundercracker, on a bet with Starscream, tried to get into an argument with one of them and his head literally exploded when it started talking about Alpha Trion's "Mythological Origins" in its weird dialect. He's mostly fine, CR Pods are working at 'peak' efficiency, but the facial reconstruction is apparently impossible due to some kind of corruption. I thought it was just some weird prank but there weren't even any scorch marks or anything. Just exploded. So yeah, just avoid optical contact and auditory contact to the best of your ability and you should be fine. Otherwise, try to force-shutdown your brainmodule if you can.
Shockwave is working on a cure right now, mostly because I know he had something to do with this in the first place so he's going to be the one to fix it.
He probably wanted a greater justification to do that weird data-transfer idea he mentioned previously. But it also explains the weird Thunderwing hypotheticals he's been asking me lately...
Can I go one fucking cycle without someone trying to "Perfect Thunderwing's Work" or whatever other idiotic drivel that I keep finding our limited energon reserves siphoned into?? It's not even a Shockwave thing, it's like every damn Cybertronian these days thinks they have the "Missing piece of the puzzle" or whatever. In fact, Shockwave might be doing this as a weird threat against the other R&D 'cons to cement himself as the one and only Decepticon "Allowed" to have resources wasted on projects like that. Ugh, now that I think about it, that's probably a correct assumption and he's probably gonna expect me to thank him for it later. Ugh, and he's probably literally right. Ugh.
At least his repairs both to himself and to his lab seem to be mostly complete so further research into the SI project should hopefully come along a little faster.
Both Shockwave and Soundwave think the SIs could potentially be used as some kind of specialty weapon, but we'll have to see how they work on sparkless lifeforms, like biological lifeforms or xenomechanical lifeforms. The SIs don't seem to corrupt each other, but Shockwave keeps reaffirming that they're not "Sparkless Lifeforms" because they "were never lifeforms to begin with"... but I think he's trying to hide something. Usually Soundwave is the one to pick up on that kind of technological obfuscation, but he actually agreed with Shockwave and offered to send Ratbat to try to work out exactly what each "sapient" SI is now capable of on a personal level.
We could have just had regular Cybertronians aboard to fill the role SIs fill. I would've preferred K Class to fill any role an SI could fill in all honesty!! But no, constructing cold wasn't enough, we just had to try to learn how to "Construct Frozen" and the "Absolute Zeroes" just had to be put on my ship.
Whatever. I've probably said too much already. This was supposed to be a warning for my ship crew, but it's looking like it'll end up being transcribed on the golden disk as well so when this new Scientific Instruments of Destruction project backfires in some absurdly bombastic way there will at least be something remaining that says I was right.

Okay so I was right, but so was Shockwave and Soundwave. Or, well, they were right just enough to make sure the backfire is postponed for at least another handful of cycles. Ratbat is still in CR from the investigation, but the cure Shockwave developed seems to be effective and Thundercracker is out and aiding the repair effort. Shockwave is now in contact with one of the SIs digitally and the other few are... integrating due to the personal efforts of Soundwave. I suppose now would be pertinent to mention not all the SIs developed the "Hetero Sapience" condition, many of them are safe for interaction. Soundwave is also currently monitoring their presence, Ravage is tasked with the regular SIs and Laserbeak is tasked with the "Sapient" SIs. Shockwave probably knows exactly what caused this event but he is preoccupied with the one he no doubt is either indoctrinating or ruthlessly interrogating. Report to Soundwave if you see any suspicious behavior, he has been working very hard to ensure the SIs have their purpose clearly defined (And closely monitored).
And, Starscream, stop trying to convince the SIs that you are the leader of this ship. Not only have the majority of your efforts been wasted on subsentient automata, the only one you have actually found who possesses the ability to truly listen to you immediately came to the bridge to complain about you. They were the first sapient SI I communicated with directly and it was because they felt the need to complain about you. I almost feel embarrassed for you. Come back to the bridge so you can apologize to it or so I can teach it how to laugh at you. It's practicing right now actually!
This moment of chaos should hopefully be largely under control now, the actual "population" of Scientific Instrument Class Pseudocons was actually quite fewer than initially expected due to an indexing error incorrectly labeling certain shells as SI class.
At the very least, we have some more specialty warriors because of it all.
