Summary
After the fall of the Netherbrain, Tav's home in Baldur's Gate was destroyed and Gale offers his tower as a temporary place for her to rest and heal. A very slow-burn romance starts to bloom, while Tav (named Iluviel) struggles to be ready after the things Astarion did to her.
~
Lots of D&D lore and (mostly canonical) Waterdeep worldbuilding went into this fic that follows both Gale and Iluviel through their daily lives inside and outside of the wizard's tower.

Readers said about this fic: "This fic has had me in a chokehold from Day 1. The most deliciously slowest of slow burns, yet with enough intensity and cliffhangers to keep me racing back to it as soon as a new chapter alert comes out. The world-building that has happened in this fic surpasses just about all of the other fics I've read to date, with the imagery and scenery so beautifully written I could imagine myself sitting right in the kitchen along with Gale, Tara, and Iluviel, dodging pots and pans 😁"

Summary
Fresh off a too-close-for-comfort victory at Baldur’s Gate, (and the equally humbling loss of most of his god-tier power), Gale Dekarios finds himself returned to something far more dangerous than divinity: himself. With ambition responsibly downsized and hubris placed on a strict diet, he determines there are only three things he truly requires in order to restore balance to his life.
Rebuild his tower. See his mother. And...Romance you, the actual love of his life.
The first two are straightforward.
The third is complicated by two minor issues: you are impressively oblivious, and you are absolutely determined not to fall for him again. Undeterred, Gale resolves to approach the situation with patience, sincerity, and perhaps breakfast. After all, he has survived gods, Netherese artifacts, and his own poor decision-making.
Surely he can survive courting you.
Probably.

Summary
If you were to show Luciana her ability scores, she’d lament even more that she was raised in a community cut off from the Weave, because it’s painfully obvious that she should have been a wizard. She’d be insulted by the abysmal WIS score, think on it, and then begrudgingly agree. She’d laugh at the CHA score, assuming it must be a mistake. After puzzling over it, she’d decide that lacking any sort of ‘EMP’ score for empathy in the game, high CHA had been the easiest way to represent how she seems to be able to make people feel listened to. Because she has far too much stage fright for actual charisma.
Unfortunately for everyone including her, Luciana doesn’t know she’s in a game, and on the day she decides she should get one free murder as a treat, the realms seem to have conspired to land her on the biggest stage imaginable. She’d be mad, except her Patron did promise her all and everything and forever. She’s not sure she wants it anymore, because as it turns out, the world contains a lot more suffering than her sheltered upbringing prepared her for.
Or:
The horniest, most violent, and most self-indulgent playthrough I could muster, because why the fuck not. Enjoy.Bookmarked by Soulcatcher
