Adventuring with a sorcerer wasnât ideal for Gale. But for everyoneâs sake, and for their survival, heâd manage.
It began as friendly competition between the two of you. (Friendly is not the word youâd use, since Gale thought of himself better. Heâd never outright admit to it, because he knows better! Itâs an argument you have with him from time to time, but at the end of the day you still kiss each other goodnight. So it never really matters.)
Every battle was a constant challenge has you attempted to outperform one another. Talks of magic had its weak jabs here and there. Gale would typically leave it at that, if he couldnât agree with someoneâyet you had such a spark in you, it was addictive.
The competition irritated the hell out of some of your companions depending on the day. As long as you came out of battle alive, they didnât nag too much. Gale could handle Astarionâs annoyance and Laeâzelâs comments as long as you could, too.
One time you referred to him as the Weaveâs most pretentious pet, and he knew right then and there Tara would love you. Yes, your comment was quite rude, but he had nothing to say. A sorcerer had stunned Gale of Waterdeep.
Of course he got back at you later. The Weaveâs most pretentious pet couldnât allow you to get wrapped up in a wave of poisonous vines! He casted ice your way to freeze over the deadly green, and give you a minor cold.
As you grew closer it was less of: anything you can do, I can do better. To Galeâs pleasant surprise he began to learn. Sorcery fascinated him. You fascinated himâsomehow. The two of you, connected by magic, yet your perspectives so dangerously detached.
He couldnât believe he was awestruck by a sorcerer. Some nights heâd catch himself thinking about you. Most thoughts stirred the orb within him, and he knew it was best to get some rest.
He was in denial for some time. When you entered the Shadow-Curse together, he quickly got over it. Your differences is why he admired you. Gale wasnât going to allow sorcery or wizardry keep himself from you.
And luckily, you thought the same.
