Melekar and Jaheiraās relationship
@demiesop (who is an amazing artist and everyone should check out if they havenāt already š), hereās what I think their relationship would be like.
To put it simply, mom and a ārebelliousā teenager.
But to elaborate further:
This dynamic was mainly due to the fact that Melekar wasnāt raised with much of a mother figure around or father figure for that matter and didnāt like to be coddled or questioned. Quickly believing he was being made a fool in some way (heās working on his issues promise š„°)
And his first time meeting Jaheira certainly didnāt do anything to make him less suspicious of her. In act two as a baseline Iād think he avoids her because her words make him feel burdened (that heād have to help them, which he was reluctant to do).
In act three however I can see their relationship becoming a bit less hostile, especially because Melekar would begin to respect her after act 2 and how she fought.
Heād reluctantly let her treat him like a kid. Giving sarcastic quips as responses while actually not minding it at all. Though if she calls him little cub heāll definitely still grumble a bit: āGods donāt call me thatā
But yeah thatās how I think theyād be, I love jaheira a lot and may have also read her wikis šš
