Watching murder mysteries and thinking about writing....not quite ready yet to flesh it out. And thinking about why Gale would not want to teach - and I don't mean because he hates kids - or they irk him. And what would happen if he (unromanced) left the crown and Raphael was dead. Would it gnaw at him, worrying him like a hangnail - starting as some small notion, only to grow into this mental nuisance that he cannot leave be? The idea of that crown, of that power.
I think human-ending Gale without a partner would have a more difficult time not obsessing. Is he still Gale of Waterdeep or has he settled into Gale Dekarios? And if not: how does that look?
