I have this headcanon that Gale will have at least one insane child that will give him grey hairs. I keep thinking of that one scene from Inside Out where the dad is chasing baby Riley with a towel after the bath. I think something like that would happen to Gale. LOLOL
The baby thing is such a cute thing 🥺🥺🥺
I definitely agree that Gale would have at least one child that would give him grey hairs. I personally think it would be the child most similar to him personality wise. Since he is his own biggest critic and he does have a bit snarky banter with anyone as snarky as he is. (Take a look at him and Astarion, both sassy lil shits)
omg this could be a oneshot! Starting with Tav scolding Gale for being too harsh or strict on their child and Gale being like they love their child but they are so stubborn, passionate and rushing into things etc. He continues until Tav stops them cradles his face and say
"They are just like you."
And this sparks an epiphany in Gale on how his self deprecating behavior was leaking into his treatment of his child. Now he has to process and realize that the quirks he has wasn't all that bad after all.
My brain is melting a bit i hope i make sense with this.
