Y’all…I’m deep in the hozier pits right now and wasteland, baby just makes me think of Dammon?? I know he’s an NPC that doesn’t get a lot of love but god a romance where he and tav dance around each other, knowing they’re developing feelings but having to skirt around each other till the end of the game…

Specifically the lyrics:

and I love too / and love soon might end

Be known in it’s aching / shown in the shaking

Lately of my wasteland, baby

Like I’m sorry but touch-starved dammon being thrust back into the heat of feeling love after elturel and avernus and a tav so intent on showing him that there’s good in the world for him, that someone can return the kindness and optimism he’s so keen on showing everyone else. A tav so scared to get involved with him because they understand that circumstance has put a target on their back and they don’t want to drag him down with them. So soft and so yearning and so unsure of what the hell to make of these feelings for each other. Dammon being coy because he’s just a blacksmith and tav is the hero of the gate, a figure surely to be spoken of through the ages…okay I’ll shut up now
