Interference in the Weave🎆
here it come the bitch slap...
Wait, you do know it's literally impossible for Mystra to have groomed Gale, right?
hello Anon, thanks for the question, and, my idea of grooming on Gale's relationship with Mystra is kinda complicated, ear me out:
first thing first, Gale was a prodigy even as a young boy, and we understand that as a magician (similar to all the people who follow a religion) he worshipped Mystra, and she was always a presence in his life.
people will say that just because he was an adult, the grooming part doesn't count, but this is wrong.
Grooming someone mean that we have power over him, influence, and we have a big part on the shaping of the mind of the person, and Mystra did all those things (remember Gale have a deep bond with the weave than others), maybe not necessarily over present when Gale was a child, but more than there when he became her lover.
the power dynamic in their relationship was deeply unbalanced, she had all the power, while he was literally at her hands and feet to worship her.
Gale had so much stress, feeling never enough , and we see that if we try to romance him, he is trying so much to impress TAV/DURGE, because he believe he need to do more(after all, romancing a litteral god...lot of stress).
because is feeling of not enough that he will absorb the globe and Mystra will chase him away like nothing, and don't let me start when she ask him(not really her, she send someone else to tell him, like sending a sms, what a bitch, do it yourself coward) to kill himself like he meant nothing.
this is shadow grooming and nothing will convince me differently.
Mystra literally sent one former liver lover to another former lover to say that the latter should kill himself.
Okay was no one going to TELL ME that
MYSTRA
ALSO FUCKED
ELMINSTER??
I can’t believe I had to read that with my own two eyes without any warning
Thalia reads Gale's letter explaining his experience growing up learning magic.
This is in response to @letters-from-dekarios 's response to my anon ask. I absolutely adore the way Gale is written in all of the responses and also really enjoyed the fics currently there so please do read them if you come across this little post of mine.
Also hello I kinda just made this tumblr account so I can look at Gale content all the time but I also really like doodling Gale with my tav so I guess this will be a place for me to dump my Gale doodles when I can hello welcome
Thalia finally stopped avoiding Gale after reading the letter
