Ship Tournament, Round 1 β Match 23 / 30
"These two so obviously have some history. I'm not saying it's romantic or sexual history, but it's history, and that invites thought. There's some tension between them, that could be interesting in a romance."
"Jaheira calls her 'Astele'. Nine-Fingers left an offering for her."
"Theyβd challenge each other in places where they actually need it. Gale can get so wrapped up in guilt and grand gestures and magical destiny that he forgets heβs allowed to just live. Minthara would have absolutely no patience for him dressing self-destruction up as nobility. Sheβd call it wasteful, which is maybe the least comforting possible wording, but also exactly the kind of thing that would cut through his spiral. And Gale would push Minthara too, because heβs genuinely curious about people and he loves conversation and he can be very emotionally brave once he stops trying to turn everything into a speech. Heβd ask questions she isnβt used to being asked by someone who isnβt trying to control her. I think sheβd hate how much she likes having someone intelligent look at her and want to understand the person under the armour."
