Thank you to @tadpole-apocalypse for drawing GaleZelHeart for me! This is my perfect ship: two women bullying a man.

Thank you to @mightymizora and @smoreofbabylon for playing in this sandbox with me.

If you see this drawing and feel something stirring inside you, please join us in our AO3 ship tag that now has enough works to be searchable!

“There’s something…unspeakable about Shadowheart. But I mean that in a good way. She seems to me like a bud on the cusp of bursting into a rose. That or deadly nightshade.” - Gale Dekarios (act I.) (fun fact: another name for nightshade is belladonna which translates to “beautiful woman” We love us a poet).

.

Perhaps this makes him a Sharran too, this desire to chase the loss, the dark imprint Shadowheart will leave behind when she does it again, forgets him, forgets them. Perhaps this, then, is prayer, the whisper of warmth of her still on his body, the hand in his, the echo of her sighs still ringing in his ears. Even when she’s still in bed with him, laying beside him, he feels as though she’s already gone.

Six months after her sudden disappearance from Gale’s life, Shadowheart returns to Waterdeep without any memory of their secret relationship.

who wanted to hug the wizard? 😺 I remember someone in the tags wanting to give Gale a hug. So I give thee the hug from all the angles. 😈

Every ship is a valid ship and Larian did well with how romanceable all the party characters feel with each other, the chemistry they all have.

And.

Larian did something to the core of my being with the way they wove parallels into Gale & Shadowheart's wounds. Now, forgive me, I don't have screencaps, BUT

The way that both believe these wounds are their fault, and that penance is the only thing that will ease this pain for good.

The way that both believe these wounds are because of mistakes they are both making now, and mistakes they made in youth, when really all they are is markers of (chronic) pain due to abuse. And the ways that trauma can manifest as illness, and that the crushing thing about that is that trauma survivors then blame themselves for not being enough for others (sound like a certain wizard we know??)

And how, when he finally opens his mind to her (the tadpole does NOT connect your minds involuntarily), it is with a hand over his heart. (I have to look again but I am 99% certain it is her wounded hand)

But it goes beyond that, because of course it does. And here's where the diabolical geniuses at Larian get me.

Gale's sex scene, on a Shadowheart origin. The first thing she does to him is lean into (and kiss????) his orb scar.

And the first way that he introduces her to Sparkly Weave Pleasure™ is by taking her wounded hand in his and channeling what is ostensibly a very good feeling through it.

There's something here about recognizing and tending the wounds in each other, and turning them into sources of goodness and strength. Something about surviving and healing from trauma and being rid of that pain — eventually, potentially after years of enduring it — together.

Anyway I'm not normal about them!!!!!! Where're my galeheart girlies at!!!!!!

I said something similar under someone else's post regarding Gale and Shadowheart, but I wanted to say it again on my own post. Gale essentially gushes over Shadowheart in the same way Astarion gushes over Wyll. This is why Wyllstarion and Galeheart are two of the best ships. Of course I ship all the ladies together because wlw is my cup of tea, but wyllstarion and galeheart are my designated mlm and m/f ship.
