I think the core of what makes Gale such a great character to me is that he’s proof that a character can be deeply flawed without being an asshole. He’s cocky and pretentious, but that’s largely a front he puts up to mask his insecurities, and he’s never mean-spirited; his good heart always shines through. The world needs more characters like him (and by “the world” I mean me)
i love Gale's hair so much because he is exactly the type to have loose and dishevelled hair getting when distracted in his face.
Which Tav then can gently brush his hair behind his ear only for Gale to grab Tav's hand and nuzzle their palm. While slowly looking into Tav's eyes
- Trying to subtly set up dinner seating to encourage them to sit next to him. i.e Notices Tav prefers logs to stools so he sits next to a log everytime. (Annoyed when it doesn't work/Someone else takes the seat).
- Pretends not to hear the first few times he's called, so Tav says his name again (he is conflicted about this habit, he doesnt want to come across as rude).
- Staring (this is all but stated), my heart says specifically with his chin resting in his hand, watching Tav from across the camp a book open in his lap for plausible deniability.
- Mentioning (more than he already does) how much Tav would like Waterdeep. Oh you like plays/food/magic well in Waterdeep... He's determined to at least get them to visit.
- Minor magical improvements to camp, raising the ambient temp slightly, improving the smell of camp. Spells that are too small to really brag about, but he wants credit for doing, but people don't tend to notice. (another source of annoyance for him)
- Bragging to other companions, if he and Tav have a pleasant exchange or moment. "You know I told a very humorous tale earlier, Tav seemed to enjoy it quite a bit would you like to hear it?"
We stan a humble wizard
Gale Dekarios, the man that you are.

This spell should be a cantrip for Gale.
Drew them with dad bods, now I have to draw them as dads 😩
September loves Gale, but sometimes he feels like he will never understand him.
He's also a bit worried that he insulted Tara and she won't like him now. Nothing like messing up a first impression.
played bg3 for astarion and i fell in love with that fucking wizard instead
nether on his orb til he blast
I could finally finish those other WIP sketches, OR I could just add more to the pile.
A sketch of my Tav making out with Gale to relieve some of my stress.
