Considering the fact that I heavily associate Colin Ryan's voice performance as Apollo to be very much what Rae sounds like, I'm inclinded to call "Time Belongs To Us" from Hades II as Rae's song for the journey.
Sung by "Rae," the lyrics are also very fitting. (1/2)

I struggle with being proud of what I create; on my best days I like it, but... it's a long step from pride.
That said, I'm very happy with my BG3/Rae longfic, despite it needing revisions now that my writing style has evolved.
I have also listened to my Rae/Raestarion (1/3)

I picked up BG3 on a whim and I'm glad I did because I've had the pleasure to meet all you wonderful people who have been nothing but kind, supportive and great company and so this question is a tad different, more a request.
Show me whatever about your Tav/Durges you are most proud of.

There have been plenty of folks along the tadventure that fit into this; Wyll, Jaheira, Barcus, and even Minthara.
But the most significant will always be Shadowheart. At first hypocritically hating her secrecy and her fanaticism, Rae ended up loving her like—a sister, he dare say.

Depending on Approval.
Low:
"Surely you must've seen that attack coming."
"You're not making your pitiful death my fault."
"Get up, or don't. I'll slaughter 'em all with or without your useless arse."
Neutral:
"Don't you dare die—you still owe me gold."
"Bloody hells, again?"(1/2)

Rae *always* keeps a journal; a habit he picked up from his father.
He fills the last pages of his old journal during the first days of the tadpole adventure, but temporarily hands it to Astarion as reading material.
In turn, Astarion gifts him a new journal a few days later. (1/2)

Rae did what he always does after returning home from a far too long adventure—he took a Potion of Angelic Slumber and passed out for the next ten or twelve hours.
When he wakes up, Astarion is cuddled by his side in his shirt. It's a good sight, and an even better feeling. (1/2)

Canonically, #Raestarion are in an open relationship.
They establish this ~1 year post-game, seeing as they're exceptionally comfortable with each other at that point.
Their first partner for this is Halsin and later on Lucien, an on-and-off partner of Rae's. (1/2)

Part of his mercenary band's studies demanded of Rae to learn about monsters, vampires included. He found the information on them rather lacking though.
Post-game, when #Raestarion are very comfortable with e/o, Rae asks of Astarion to tell him everything about his condition. (1/2)

"Put the ring in his morning tea. Have him shit it out. Will make for such a fantastic story that he can't say no," Rae says, standing in front of Dolly with a lopsided, sinister smirk.
He then crouches down, eye-level with the love-riddled bard and expression neutral. (1/3)

Hi, I'm a baby's protruding bone.
Hi, I'm an electric fence that some kid's brother dared them to touch.
Hi, I'm a murderously high wave.
Hi, I'm swimming pool and this kid has no idea how to swim but has somehow always been drawn to water.
(I think I have too many of these.)

This may shock you, but gold and blood and the Hells are recurring motifs that I associate with Rae. Contrary to all of these, I also strongly associate him with the sun.
Deeper motifs are atheism, freedom, as well as the will to choose your destiny for yourself. (1/2)

Whenever Astarion'd walk into the room, Rae'd hear "Can't Help Falling In Love."
I associate this song with a beautiful scene from "Crazy Rich Asians," and the lyrics in correlation with Rae as well as the speed of the song match perfectly to what would be going on in his head.(1/2)

Canonically, Rae did trade a memory in the House of Grief.
It was DEX-based; a memory of him as a child, of being locked in that foetid cell his mother stuffed him into for a year after his father died. His claustrophobia slowly started to manifest, so he tried to escape. (1/4)
