gale 1, 7!!! karlach 3, 34
Gale, 1) What is their love language? I always forget how love languages are supposed to work but. Gale shows his love with acts of service first and foremost. Receiving, he probably most seeks words of affirmation.
Gale, 7) What are the top 3 things they look for in a partner?
1. Challenging. Like he likes banter/good natured arguing, he's destined to be half of an old married couple. But he also likes challenging in the way that someone is a bit of a puzzle. He also likes someone who is willing to call him out on his bullshit.
2. Smart. Someone doesn't need to share all his nerd interests or be the smartest person ever, but if he can't have an intelligent conversation with them, he'd be so bored. He really likes when someone is curious and willing to learn new things, even if they're not the same things he likes to learn.
3. Someone who values him for himself, as a person and not as a means to an end, though that will not stop him from continually trying to prove he's worthy of love.
Karlach, 3) How long does it take them to decide they're in love? Not very long, and it's a very sudden realization one day, not a gradual thing. Just "fuck I love them!!!"
Gale,
Do they have any relationship dealbreakers? What are they? I think cruelty without reason is up there. Like he can rationalize a lot to see the best in someone he cares about, and he can appreciate having good reasons to do bad things, but punching down for funsies is something he'd struggle to tolerate.
PLURK why did you auto insert that emoji. It's not inaccurate but it ate the number, which was 8
is that not just an emoji of gale
Karlach, 34: What do they want most in a lover? Is it different from what they want most in a relationship outside of bed? How? In the sack, she wants like enthusiasm and a lack of hesitancy. In a relationship in general, being bashful and coy can be cute, but it has been ten years since she's been to pound town and she's ready to set up residence k???
Gale, 15: Do they show affection in public? How? Yes he will, he's very casually affectionate with friends as well as lovers. When it comes to PDA, it's more on the side of hand holding and cheek kissing, not making out in public. The lack of decorum!!
dying at karlach... she has waited LONG ENOUGH
She has. Shit or get off the pot!
Gale, 32. How important is good sex to them as part of a relationship?
It's important, but it's not the end all be all. It's definitely something he enjoys, and makes him feel closer to someone, but it's not THE most important thing.
Gale, 11. Are they afraid of commitment? Why or why not? Oh absolutely not, quite the opposite in fact. Once he's in, he jumps in with both feet. When he falls, he falls hard, and he's absolutely ready to die for them (fully literally).
Gael, 14. How would they turn down someone who was interested in them if they didn't reciprocate? He'd be very flattered and kind, but a little awkward, particularly if it was like someone he actually knew and not just like a stranger at a bar.
Gale, 25. What do they like to do after sex? Cuddles and pillow talk, probably. He's just a big pile of sap in wizard robes
Gale, 26. What's the weirdest place they've ever had sex? Does the astral plane count? I feel like fidget spinner sex in the astral plane has to count.
Astral plane absolutely counts
IT made me cackle. Like I Get It but I was like WHOA DUDE
Astral plane absolutely counts.
Not sex, but honorable mention to the scene where Gale alludes to having a danger kink in the Shadow-Cursed Lands. Sir that's NOT A GOOD TIME? THERE'S SO MANY UNDEAD THINGS?
so when i first played the game it was back when there was a glitch where gale thought you were romancing him when you weren't... this man and i had had NO romantic interactions and then in the shadowlands he turns to me like "danger gets me horny btw"
Just a casual factoid! To tell your platonic friend!
i know you've been in a tower for a year but omfg these are INSIDE THOUGHTS gale
If you go into isolation with no one but your cat for long enough, you forget the difference between inside and outside thoughts
help i also had gale tell me about his danger kink in my first play through even though i had picked someone else to romance and i always lose my shit remembering it
an artist i like also made a comic abt it, truly the world's funniest bug.
he also gets inspiration when you read kar'niss's diaries in the void spider area in act one, it's like dude do you just have a drider thing?
That is truly hilarious, especially depending on when the dialogue triggered.
I mean, spiders are dangerous, so that checks that box, and figuring out how to fuck a spider is a puzzle, and he's a nerd, so...
yeah it was right after i'd killed kar'niss he was like "wow anybody else fully hard?" and i was like MY GUY?
Omg what a fantastic glitch
Nerd in the streets freak in the sheets (and he's gonna tell you whether you like it or not)
guy of all time, quite frankly
