Sweet Dreamheart goodness is served - Chapter 8 of To Sleep, Perchance to Dream is out!

I finally got to write some of why I drew this piece of fanart! A passage after the break:

In the dreamscape, Shadowheart woke up sitting at the desk in the corner. She stood and turned around to find Elody lounging on the settee, her back towards her. She was busy writing something in a leather-bound book, the tip of her falcon feather quill wiggling erratically with every letter added onto the page. As she wrote, she was humming the tune that was now permanently etched into Shadowheart’s memory.

Shadowheart took a moment to silently observe Elody, so relaxed and in her own world. She seemed free of worry, like nothing in the world could bother her in this moment. If only she could always be this at ease!

Shadowheart walked closer, purposefully making her footsteps heavy so as to not startle Elody.

”What are you writing?”

Elody jumped, slamming her book shut. Shadowheart was prepared to dodge the quill flying from her hand, but Elody carefully put it down onto the coffee table instead.

”Gods, Shadowheart!” Elody held her hand to her chest, breathing heavily. ”You can’t just sneak up on an unassuming girl like that!”

The look of shock on Elody’s face was comical, and Shadowheart had to fight hard to conceal her grin.

”Terribly sorry,” she said, sitting down next to Elody. ”How can I ever make up for the terror I’ve caused you?”

Elody’s grimace soon turned into a smirk. ”I can think of a little something,” she murmured and pulled Shadowheart into a deep, slow kiss.

”I’m happy you’re finally here. I was starting to miss you.” Elody captured Shadowheart’s eyes with her tender gaze.

‘Ooooh Shadowheart and Lae’zel is so enemies to lovers’

Listen. Of course they are. Shadowheart has been tasked by her goddess to retrieve the Astral Prism, a Githyanki artifact that Lae’zel is sworn to protect. They try to kill each other at one point.

But that’s not All There Is To It, you feel me? Like that’s not the sole appeal. It’s not even the main appeal.

It’s about them having parallel character arcs. It’s about them being so very different but so fundamentally the same; having their lives stolen from them and molded into the design of an uncaring Goddess. Being a true believer, devout, ready to die for their cause. Only to realize the deception, to feel lost, aimless, without purpose. And having no choice to make their way forward.

It’s about the fact that they’re not *really* enemies, they never were. Rivals, perhaps. At odds at times, certainly. But at the end of it? The conflict between them was built on lies.

It’s about them finding solace in the only other person who knows their struggle; each other. It’s about them learning how to let down their guard and be vulnerable. It’s about them raising Xan together because they’re both free now.

Ok

Baldurs Gate shipping and who I am actively in love with

SO, currently romancing Gale because Astarion rejected me, full one said “I don’t wanna have sex with you, UGH, EW, imagine.” But Gale is so cute??? I don’t get whenever I see hate for him, especially cause we had astral projection sex which was absolutely fantastic. Wyll kissed me but I said “haha nah Gale” and I think I accidentally romanced Karlach??? I don’t know. Oh I also hugged the Guardian love him.

Now for shipping

SHADOWHEART AND LAE’ZEL IS SO FUCKING REAL TO ME OH MY GOD THEY GOTTA GET DOWN RIGHT NOW

They ARE rivals to lovers

Wyll and Karlach… they’re best friends. I’m sorry but all the women look like absolutely lesbians to me and I love that for them

But Wyll is so sweet and so cute and I do adore him, he’s so fun, but I built him so badly haha. Anyways, he is a WHORE, he flirts with EVERYONE, SLUT BOY, and he needs a happy ending. Don’t know with who though. And Karlach needs a short woman to peg.

Astarion is 100% asexual and I love him cause he’s just like me frfr which means he needs to be with me and only me. But also genuinely I think Astarion can only be happy with a redeemed Durge??? Like I think that’s the best path for him. Two monsters learning to be good together… GAH ITS SO CUTE. Either way, he’d need to be with someone who isn’t overly horny

Also once again I absolutely adore Gale. Gale is so good and so loving and he also absolutely loves body worship like he is hozier he was on his knees and worshipping his Goddess Mystra, loving her and now HE CHOOSES YOU IN HIS ROMANCE. HE BDKDCJKWHCISJDKWJD. I love him, so who should he be with? He’s more on the basic side overall, easy to get approval from, but also extremely romantic and loving, and autistic just like me frfr. So… actually maybe Wyll??? Wyll has some self worth issues especially after going all devil and Wyll is also a romantic? But ehhh… I dunno, it just doesn’t feel right.

Anyways, Halsin. I love the daddy bear man like YES he is absolutely fantastic and I love him so so so so much I want him carnally. But also I can’t really see him with most people haha. Maybe Gale though, imagine the astral projection scene but then Halsin is a bear, that’d be hilarious. But nah, I honestly like Halsin/Astarion/Reformed Durge Throuple. Essentially, finishing Astarion’s personal quest before initiation with Halsin will ensure that Astarion doesn’t get any self doubt. They are all on different parts of their journey for improvement, both Halsin and Astarion have severe issues with self doubt along with sexual trauma, and all of them have a “beast” inside. Durge with the Urge, Astarion being a vampire, and Halsin with his difficult-to-control wild shape. Plus Halsin to me is one of the most respectful and consent-focused characters, which I think would work well with what Astarion needs.

Ok so I wanna ship Karlach with some cute bard girl or something, someone just as fun and nice as she is. And you know what? Wyll and Gale is starting to grow on me. They’re both characters who try to “woo” Tav before doing anything, Gale with the Weave and Wyll with his dance.

Imagine, Gale teaching Wyll the secrets of the weave, likely Wyll has never interacted with it properly as his magic comes from a devil. This could help unlock Wyll and on some level separate him from Mizora. Oh wow, both these men have been manipulated and abused by extremely powerful non-humanoid women. They’re both self sacrificing gits who want to be the hero, both sacrificed much for power. I think it would start when Mizora first appears in camp, maybe. Gale would go to comfort Wyll over the transformation, maybe even compliment his horns. During the night of celebration Gale would see Wyll by the beach and offer to show him something magical, aka the Weave scene. They make some jokes and Wyll mentions the dancing, Gale prods, and Wyll says maybe another time.

GAH

I FEEL LIKE A FUCKING GENIUS

Alright, so, summary

Lae’zel and Shadowheart

Karlach and cute girl (if Alfira survived Durge I’d choose her but oh well)

Durge, Astarion, and Halsin

Gale and Wyll

EDIT: This post is no longer accurate to my views or feelings on the matter! I will write another one eventually since I actually know the characters a lot better. This was legit written before I even got to act 2 and I barely did anything in act 1

EDIT 2: howdy hey it’s been like… over a year now. But it was pretty bi-erasure-y for me to say I headcanon Karlach as a lesbian! I still prefer seeing her with women, but she is 100% bisexual. Just wanted to make this an official edit. Anyways. Yeah

Oh.

A throw back to when I asked about Quota asking for a little brother for his bday.

When IS Aqcuire gonna become a present day baby instead of future.

HAHAHA!

TBH, if ONLY the SilverKing event took place last year, we'll be getting there!

BUt NOPE!

auto's perma-asleep right now! the story's postponed indefinitely!

but! BUT for a glimmer of hope!

future!auto still exists! so we can conclude the story still somehow happened but as of the moment, it's on a thin string, he CAN disappear. it's like a 50/50 situation

a very crucial thing must happen so we'll get a better chance at going back on track with this story
