    Summary

    "There is a situation in Waterdeep. A wizard named Gale Dekarios. He has ... acquired something that poses a significant threat to the city."

    "What are my orders?"

    "Surveillance. Watch him. Monitor the situation. Report any changes in his condition or behavior. If the orb becomes too unstable, you are to enact this protocol."

    "I understand the parameters of the mission, Father. I will not fail."

    "May Mystra guide your steps,"
    _______________________________

    He was only ever supposed to be a target, she became his savior. Together, they'll defy the gods, save the world, and claim their own seats in the pantheon.

    (This one's for all the Mystra haters)

    *A note on Elvish - there is no full D&D Elvish language so I'm just doing my best with whatever I can cobble together from the internet, we'll just go with it.

    Summary

    Sylvara is a practical and wise cleric of Mielikki from a remote wood-elven village when she gets abducted by mindflayers. Gale is an over-enthusiastic and brilliant wizard from Waterdeep, if slightly arrogant. Sylvara begrudgingly allows him to travel with her to find a cure for their parasite when his knowledge proves to be useful. But there's more to him than meets the eye, and Sylvara finds herself falling for the charming wizard, despite herself.

    *This is based on my duo-run with Gale. It includes Wyll, Karlach, and Lae'zel in the party as well in certain situations, but primarily focuses on Sylvara x Gale.

    *Formerly titled "The Wild and The Weave"

    Summary

    Edith moved to Baldur's Gate a year ago, after her shop in Waterdeep burned to the ground in the middle of the night. And just when she declared she would remake her life, the mind flayers came. Now, she's traveling with mysterious strangers who all have their own secrets, even as she buries her own. The one perk to all of this is that one of those strangers happens to be Gale of Waterdeep, an old acquaintance and old crush of Edith's.

    Except, now, after a year apart, Gale seems... different. Something is wrong. Will Edith figure it out or will she be kept in the dark? Can they work together to cure their tadpoles, or will their personalities keep clashing until their relationship turns to dust?

    Summary

    He unexpectedly turned as he closed the door and caught Daphne observing him. Their eyes met, she blushed in embarrassment, and—

     

    Every time he smiled, really smiled with his whole face, the world around him seemed to dim in comparison. He made her want to take up painting again. Or pastels, or any of the other art forms she’d left behind when she graduated from RISD and started her first bookmaking apprenticeship. She’d never felt compelled to make representational art, but Gale Dekarios in the full bloom of joy was absolutely worth representing.

     

    In which tiny, remote Icepeak College mysteriously hires a massively overqualified antiquities scholar in the middle of term, and its book arts workshop director finds herself inexorably pulled into his orbit. In her defense, he's really fucking hot.

    Adventure is cast upon an unlikely group of unfortunate souls who are forced to unite in a desperate fight for survival.

    Frans Olo, a roguish "bard," and Aku, a tiefling haunted by shattered memories, find each other after escaping the grip of Mindflyers and the shadow of death itself. In their relentless quest to rid themselves of these unwelcome visitors, they cling to hope and gather others burdened with the same afflictions. Along the way, bonds are forged through shared struggles, but as they uncover the depths of each other's secrets—and the disturbing truth about their tadpoles—they realize they may be facing more than they bargained for.

    Can they set aside their differences and find the strength to live another day? Or are their destinies already sealed? The choices they make will decide their fates.

    Summary

    Maywae Silverveil has spent over a decade hiding in plain sight at Blackstaff Academy. As far as her colleagues are concerned, she is a moon elf with a sharp tongue and no interest in company beyond the specimens in her laboratory. But she knows that she is a refugee, a fugitive, and that discovery could end more than her newfound peace. It could topple empires. When the newly appointed Professor of Illusion, Gale Dekarios, enters her orbit, he threatens to close the careful distance she’s maintained for so long. Gale is brilliant, charming, far too curious for his own good—and entirely unprepared for the secrets Maywae keeps buried. Against her better judgment, she finds herself drawn to him, their late-night collaborations teetering between academic dedication and something far more fragile.
    But something sinister festers in Waterdeep. Strangers whisper her name. Drow swarm the city, hunting the “white ghost” who escaped their web. As lies tighten and loyalties fracture, Maywae must choose: reveal the truth she’s spent a lifetime fleeing, or watch the people she cares for be torn apart by the same forces that once claimed her childhood.
    Magic is sacred. Secrets are holy. And Maywae’s past isn’t done with her yet.

    Summary

    “Ellia, it is a genuine pleasure.” He held his right hand out once more. She stared at the bandages, now slightly out of place by her pulling, and the slivers of exposed skin beneath: dark, purpling grey with a cracked-stone texture. Flashes of injuries and maladies skittered across her mind—nothing matched what she saw in him.

    “I don’t want to hurt you,” she said with an indicating nod.

    His smile turned wry. “Believe me, the damage there has already been done. But perhaps you’re right, and this will be better.” He swapped one hand for the other. A moment’s hesitation, then she accepted. His touch was warm. His skin more worn, more lived-in, than what she’d expected from a study-bound wizard. She wondered, dimly, what he felt in her hand. If the illusion would hold true under such direct connection, and what would happen if he realized who she truly was. But then his hand was gone and her wondering went with it. It didn’t matter. They wouldn’t be together long.

    A novelization of BG3, reframed as a romance between Gale and a resistant Durge with alternating POVs. Elements of concept Gale. More Alfira. More Tara. More reactivity to Durge actions. Puns.

    Summary

    Life comes at you fast when you're nineteen and full of potential, and even faster when you're twenty and barely surviving. Finding someone to escape the stress with is all well and good, but some day, you have to learn to face it together, or let it break you apart.

    College-aged Gale, broke-aged Clove. A lot of heat, a lot of absurdity, and a healthy dose of angst.

    now i got roaches and my roof caves in
    and i've been sleeping on floors with my friends

    so you think that i'm blind but i promise i'm fine

    Summary

    She has three rules: don’t get caught, don’t get attached, and never make deals with devils.

    He has a bomb in his chest, a goddess who abandoned him, and a way of talking that slips past her defenses like lockpicks.

    The job: steal the Crown of Karsus from an archdevil’s vault before a vampire lord gets there first. Assemble a crew. Crash a vampire masquerade. Break into the Hells. Pull off the ultimate heist.

    The problem: he keeps finding cracks in her walls. She keeps letting him. And somewhere between the devil’s bargain and the eighth layer, letting him stops feeling like a mistake.

    Canon-divergent slow burn heist fic.

    Summary

    In the Shadow-Cursed Lands, Teague leads her companions through Shar's darkness toward Last Light Inn. She's already defied the Dream Guardian's orders once—freeing a tortured pixie instead of playing along with the Absolutists—and she's aware she's being handled. Between shadow mastiff ambushes and Gale's breathless confession in front of the entire party, she's juggling tactical survival, moral lines she won't cross, and the growing certainty that the voice in her head isn't as benevolent as it pretends to be.

    The shadows press in. Her people are watching. And later—they promised each other later.
