Lukas & Gale are In Love

I am in a romantic mood, so sharing photos of Lukas and Gale in some of their most tender moments.

Saw this quiz on my dash and I needed to do it for my two best boys. If you see this and want to be tagged - you're it!

Ooh these turned out perfect and I love both!

Love as a Threshold

Your love does not ask for much. Your love does not take. Your love is free, and unquestioned, and here for wherever needs it. When you fall in love, it is as gentle as a breath in the night.

It is quiet, and it is effortless. It is tender. If your love was a house, it would readily welcome all who come through. If your love was a hearth, it would warm the hands of whoever stopped by, whether for a day, a month, a year, or forever. When you fall for someone, it is without strings, without conditions, without need. You love for the sake of loving, for the sake of caring for those who need it. You love with a giver’s heart and a giver’s hands and are made so much stronger for it. Being loved by you is to always feel at home. Your love may not always be well-received by those unprepared to linger, but it is unforgettable all the same.

Love as a Force of Nature

Your love is like whiplash –– it comes in with the rain, it blows the doors wide open. When you fall in love, it is sudden and hard and immense. It is powerful. It is earth-shaking and world-ending. Nature is a force, and that force can be destructive if you're not careful. See how the world is doused in gasoline and set on fire –– your love consumes, your love takes, your love burns. You're hot and cold all at once, a hurricane and a wildfire bound together in skin, and when you're in love, it can feel like it's eating you alive from the inside out. When you love, it is with everything you have because it is everything you have. Be careful, darling, because not everyone survives the storm.

24. whispering in their ear, lips touching the skin

for Any of the following combinations: Astarion / Wyll, Astarion / Tav or Lukas, Astarion / Wyll / Tav or Lukas

:3c

This is DELIGHTFUL and I appreciate this ask so much! I loved imagining them....there might be more haha. Thank you!

Lukas sat back from the fire, negotiating with himself whether to douse it and go to bed, or stay up and ponder a little longer. 

A sly whisper into the shell of his ear startled him back into the present moment. Cold hands folded themselves over his bare shoulder and he shivered, not unpleasantly.

"You're not going to bed just yet, are you, darling?" Astarion's breath brushed over Lukas' skin with a teasing lilt.

Lukas looked down at Wyll, sprawled on the ground next to him. Wyll just looked back and smiled, but it was one of those smiles that made Lukas' heart dance in his chest. 

"No one else is awake," Wyll drawled, sitting up slightly to lean against Lukas' leg. There was a low rumble to the easy words, though, that played the same chord as Astarion's sinuous tones.

"I feel like I've got an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other." Lukas smiled without meaning to and poked the fire with a stick, careful not to dislodge either man from their contact with him. 

"Unfortunately, you've got devils on both," Astarion purred, placing his chin on top of his hands. 

"Rude," Wyll shot back, tracing circles on Lukas' calf. 

The grin they shared over his head, though, assured Lukas he was in the best kind of trouble.

Oathweave

Yes, I did give them a sappy ship name. I spent so much energy making sure Lukas didn't oathbreak, it ended up being quite important to him. Have a little soundtrack for these sweet men.

my favorite trope is when someone believes they’re hard to love and someone who loves them like it’s breathing.

Gale Dekarios did not propose to me in his underwear for people to be out here calling him a "token straight."

[tiefling-lukas]

So y’all know the classic edge trope of “my blade cannot be sheathed until it has tasted blood”? What if a magic sword that has that requirement, except it’s sort of inverted. A sword that, instead of being inhabited by an evil spirit which once awakened cannot be lulled back to sleep except by blood sacrifice, was inhabited by a benevolent spirit who would not allow the sword to be drawn unless bloodshed were the only possible solution. A sword whose power could never be misused because it would only allow itself to be used in situations where it was justified. What about a Paladin who spends their entire journey fighting with a sheathed sword, incapacitating but never killing or maiming. The party believes that the Paladin has taken an oath of no killing, until they face the big villain. And it is in that moment, and that moment alone, that the sword will allow itself to be drawn.

Idk, this image set my mindwheels a-turning.

But do y’all see the vision?

A large percentage of the time, while waiting for a fight to start or gathering herbs or some such, this type of thing is playing inside Lukas' head. I love him.

[tiefling-lukas]

Lukas sleeps like a starfish. On his back. Any cuddly wizards who want to curl up on his chest are more than welcome. He may or may not pet their hair as he falls asleep.

This is Lukas. Baldurian, lute player, and Oath of Devotion paladin. He's a very good boy and I'm having a lot of fun playing him. He's in Act 3 right now, and it's not always been the easiest gameplay making the Good Boy Choices, but it does make for a very rich RP experience (and I am NOT dealing with the oathbreaking mechanic, which seems very annoying and tedious. I've savescummed to avoid it).

Anyway, he loves his friends. He started off messing around with Astarion but fell HARD for Gale and they are so, so stupidly in love it's adorable. Gale says extremely mushy things that make Lukas blush (though you usually can't see it under all the blood and gore) and scrape his toe along the ground shyly.

He's enormous, which I love. I love playing big characters. He swings a big fucking axe and that's also very fun. He and Shadowheart are like this *holds up two fingers pressed closely together* - he easily could have romanced her as well, if he wasn't so wizardsmitten.

He has pretty green eyes, which I'll show off in another post. Lukas is also one of my book characters, though he's not a tiefling there. He's head over heels for Étienne in the book, who I made into my dark urge for BG3 and who has his own blog over here.

Thanks for reading! Lukas is having a blast adventuring and I'll post more of the fun screenshots I got soon.
