Hot and Dishonest - Chapter 7

Another chapter of my bloodweave nerd/punk college AU!

Chapter 7 - Cut Through Like A Knife

He's become increasingly aware of Astarion ever since that night in the rain. How close they sit together. When their arms accidentally bump while they walk. Astarion's different smiles, from the blasè smirk he gives most people to the soft quirk of his lips he seems to reserve for cats and Gale alone. Gale doesn't know how to handle this… whatever this is. He loves Mystra. He would never betray her. Yet he hasn't been able to keep his heart from racing whenever Astarion is near.

Have some Gale and Astarion sketches.

Drizzt should be in your AU as some legendary gunslinger or something, perhaps he was supposed to work for his family who is just terrible and he ran off. Guenhwyvar would be some very nice calvary horse he took because she was his only friend. Maybe his story got to Astarion and he liked the idea of escaping a bad situation and being free. Maybe there's a dime novel about him or something that Astarion got his hands on. You could also expand this to include the rest of the companions of the hall, if desired. They're like their own gang.

For age ideas; drizzt was born in 1297, astarion was supposedly born in 1229. Drizzt went to the surface at 43. In 1492, he's 195, which is young. Astarion is like 200 something. Astarion's ages might be off or whatever. I'm tired but this won't let me sleep. Basically, Drizzt was (according to the drow) a teen when he left the underdark. Both races can live to be 700+ years old.

This is based off Neil making Astarion a Drizzt fanboy in that one DnD game. I have so many ideas to contribute in this regard.

I’m gonna be honest I didn’t know who Drizzt is, all I know is that he’s a drow adventurer🫣

But this is so very well thought out, I love that Astarions just a huge fanboy. He’d probably hear about Drizzt through some gossip in the parlor or a newspaper that got in. Dreaming of that life and being free and inspired him, even in his captivity. Even if that hope is useless.

This was a super cool thought, thank you so much for sharing!!

Omg I loooove Gale's face in his last panel! He looks so pissed off! Shadowheart, dear, I fear yoy may have activated his protectiveness! Also I fully believe that now he'll work twice as hard to not let anything slip out about his past, if this is how Shadowheart reacts to the news of the Szarr Estate looking for Astarion I wonder how she'll react if/when she finds out about the while Mystra and Netherese Ore thing!

Gale is tired and pissed off and doesn’t feel good, he ain’t doing so well lmao. The conflict here is fun to me because

(A: Gale has sympathy for Astarion since he knows about his back and relates in a way. He’s more than willing to help (which Astarion takes advantage of) Gales stubborn when his mind is already set, and also he is extremely loyal.

(B: Shadowheart does have a point there enough for Gale to stall his rebuttal, they’re left completely in the dark and Astarion hasn’t offered up any information so the bounty seems a lot more incriminating, it doesn’t look good for him. But then again, they all have secrets. Gale intends to keep it that way.

But if you think about it, this is just Shadowhearts reaction and the others may have differing thoughts.

Id imagine she’d have a similar reaction as to when she found out about the orb in game. Pissed.

"Astarion I'm sorry but I swear it's not me it's the orb!!!!"

One day I saw a Bluesky post that said it would be funny if the orb gave wild magic to Gale and this stupid idea of him accidentally turning Astarion into a goose came to my mind.

Made some speed draw reference sheets for a comic I'm working on for @galefanzine - Shared some concepts with permission. If you want to use these designs, please feel free and share them with me as I'd love to see what you come up with!

Hot and Dishonest - Chapter 5 & 6

I uploaded the next 2 chapters of my bloodweave nerd/punk college AU!

Chapter 5 - Bent Right To Your Winds

“That's not how this works,” Gale sighs. “It is now," Astarion says before he turns to walk away, keys swinging from one finger. Not just any keys. Gale's keys. “How did you even get those?” Gale calls before following after him. “I need them!”

Chapter 6 - Feel You Sneaking In

Astarion is beautiful. Gale has always been aware of it in the back of his mind, but it's impossible to ignore now as Astarion strips off his soaked, plain black t-shirt off. His bare torso is stunningly pale and smooth, and Gale has the strangest urge to run his hand down Astarion's chest. He can't look away from the subtle flex of his muscles as he pulls the shirt over his head and drops it by his feet, wrinkling his nose at the offending garment.
