Melekar and Jaheira’s relationship
@demiesop (who is an amazing artist and everyone should check out if they haven’t already 🐙), here’s what I think their relationship would be like.
To put it simply, mom and a ‘rebellious’ teenager.
But to elaborate further:
This dynamic was mainly due to the fact that Melekar wasn’t raised with much of a mother figure around or father figure for that matter and didn’t like to be coddled or questioned. Quickly believing he was being made a fool in some way (he’s working on his issues promise 🥰)
And his first time meeting Jaheira certainly didn’t do anything to make him less suspicious of her. In act two as a baseline I‘d think he avoids her because her words make him feel burdened (that he’d have to help them, which he was reluctant to do).
In act three however I can see their relationship becoming a bit less hostile, especially because Melekar would begin to respect her after act 2 and how she fought.
He’d reluctantly let her treat him like a kid. Giving sarcastic quips as responses while actually not minding it at all. Though if she calls him little cub he’ll definitely still grumble a bit: ‘Gods don’t call me that’
But yeah that’s how I think they’d be, I love jaheira a lot and may have also read her wikis 😭😭
