A BG3 screenshot, set against a natural scape of flowers, grass, trees and rocks. Against that we see Halsin on the right, wearing his normal outfit but dyed in deeper greens without the white. He holds his shorter partner, tilting their head back with a smile. In partner in turns holds him around the waist, grinning wide. His partner is a male elven Tav with short coily black hair and deep red eyeshaodw, who wears an outfit of leaves and twigs which spread over most of his body, including a circlet around his head.

I spent a lot of time going haywire with freecam mod last night...

Back on that this evening, I think, hehe... and you know, actual editing.

A BG3 screenshot. Behind, a night sky littered with stars. On the balcony sits a male redheaded Tav, his hand pressed against the wood, another hand on his own shoulder as he regards his partner. His partner, Gale Dekarios, smiles brightly and offers a hand. Both wear black and silver clothing, with the Tav also wearing beige trousers and Gale a green shirt, with more elaborate silver embroidery.

A formal setting in this BG3 screenshot; a stone floor and stone pillars frame our heroines. On the right is a blonde-half-elf, who wears an elaborate blue and black dress with golden elements and a shoulder cape. Lae'zel is on the left, wearing a simple black dress. The half-elf is smiling warmly at Lae'zel, who looks a little less at ease, but happy. In the background is a spray of flowers that almost 'crowns' Lae'zel, framing her head beautifully.

Against a background where a soft, barely purple spotlight fades into the darkness stands two women; on the right, a tiefling woman wearing Sharran armour, her purple hair long and straight and her eyes purple on black sclera. She reaches out to Shadowheart, wearing her camp gear, who reaches out back. Both women smile, happy in one another's company. Shadowheart's back and hair almost seem like they're getting swallowed by the dark around.

Thomas is a sweary human lad who is also a sentient storm straining against his own skin; he's attracted to incredibly intelligent men with WIS stat problems, but magnetically attractive to Problems, Troubles and Situations.

A BG3 screenshot set in the fantastical 'heaven' of the God Gale ending. The backround is a pink and orange wash of light and floating towers. Foreground, we have God Gale on the left and a redheaded male Tav on the right. The Tav wears a green and gold set of robes and jewellery, his freckles on show and almost highlighted by the golden armband. He also wears a gold-tinted version of the Crown of Karsus on his head, but looks... discontent, as Gale, satisfied, reaches up a silver hand to touch the crown.

A palette of blacks, soft colours but popping oranges and reds for a BG3 screenshot, highlighting the fire behind the two men stood hand in hand before it. On the right, Wyll Ravengard with his curling horns on show, and on the left, a hooded drow male Tav. Both wear shades of black and silver with blue hints, with both wearing cloaks. Wyll's cloak is a heavyier thick one with the hood down, and his partner wears a thinner cotton one with the hood up!

For Thomas? By burying his struggles down in a box and NOT dealing with them until the events are over, crashing out physically for a few days after the docks scenes, and...

Well. He and Gale have a very heavy few months in Waterdeep before they get married. [1/4]
A BG3 screenshot; a male human Tav stands on the right of the screen, show from his side; his wavy red hair is tied back into a ponytail and he wears a dark grey coat over a pale blue shirt. The moon in the background peaks over a wooden wrecked house, and he stares over at it with a stern, thoughtful frown.

A combination of pondering on responses to this event and chatting with friends on a server about 5e languages led to this:

Thomas casts tempest spells in the Auran dialect of Primordial. He always has, it's instinctual, like the language is for storm sorcs! [1/4]
A young man stands in the centre of a wind marked by flowing pale lines whipping through the sky, carrying mist; in the background a bright moon illuminates a night's sky. He reaches out towards the moon; we cannot see his face, but his reddish wavy hair is tried back into a bun, and he wears leather armour.

He wears lacy boxers and nothing else, the many freckles all over his arms obvious, as his the shape of his handsome face and red, wavy hair tied back into a ponytail. At his side is a Gale Dekarios in dark underwear, who gently touches his partner's arm and smiles softly, his expression full of adoration. The mood is very gentle.

Was beyond ready for this one! Let's go with physical scar. As with most who grew up on the streets, Thomas has a lot of little scars all over... but his thickest, nastiest one covers one of his cheeks.

The in-game one I use for him does not do justice to how messy it truly is. [1/8]

Tommy's backpack... assuming this is by Act 3.

Alongside any 'key' items? The Envoy's Amulet and Amulet of Restoration are always tucked in there! Alongside his poetry journal, his current book, a small sewing kit, a spare lockpick or two and assorted 'essentials.'

Notably? [1/2]

I am more than happy to indulge in my lads. The B&W shot, simple as it is, is my favourite lighthearted one I've done of Thomas and Gale.
A B&W BG3 screenshot: Gale Dekarios, in his cam clothing, embraces a male human Tav from behind, their heads just tucked together. Both smile brightly.

They stare fondly at one another.

Throws this on here and flees to bed. ✨ Barely deserves the label it's been given but hey, shirtless, and Gale definitely has Intentions, so you know!

Another B&W work, hehe.

This is Gale Dekarios, who weaps one arm around his partner and holds their hands together from the embrace. Their other hands are held too! Gale is looking a touch devious, his partner, a curly-haired male Tav with a scarred cheek and many freckles, glances back in fond amusement.

It's gentle, it's warm, it's super heavy, and it's also, just a bit, very silly. :') Music travels fast, friends!
TEXT: This, though. Headstrong and resilient as she knew herself to be, Morena hadn’t really felt like getting swept up in it herself, not with how worn down the fear in her chest had left her. All she’d done was observe… until she heard the words ‘gale’ and ‘wizard’ in quick succession. Her first thought was that it was her mind playing hurtful tricks until the grinning bard launched deep into a verse concerning the ‘tempest he did raise’ in the heart of Baldur’s Gate. Not gale, but Gale. A magnificent and powerful wizard, raising a storm in the wake of victory over the Absolute’s threat. That the storm in question was quickly noted as a person was not something she thought about in that moment because the intense surge of hope almost knocked her off her feet. “Oh, Morena… dearest, don’t cry…”
