Summary
Tav is a bhaalspawn. She was made to be used. Not to choose. Not to wonder. Not to want.
Gale disagrees—especially regarding the latter.
Or: After the defeat of the Netherbrain, Withers places a majorly suicidal and unkillable Tav into Gale’s care. You know, for fate reasons.

Summary
He isn’t much of a partygoer, but he’s fairly certain that this—Tav, on her knees in front of a postdoc, with his cock buried in her mouth—is not how these things usually go.
—
Gale’s only concerns are pleasing his advisor and setting himself up well for an elusive tenure-track job… and then Tav transfers into his doctoral program.

Summary
Gods. A year ago Gale had been part of the University of Waterdeep’s storied wizardry department. Now he was in this decrepit little office at Baldur’s Gate University after destroying both his career and a fifteen-year relationship.
He wasn’t sure if he was here to start over, or to give up.
____________________
Gale Dekarios had almost everything he’d ever wanted—until he let his pride ruin it all. Now he’s newly single and wondering if he’ll ever pick up the pieces of his shattered career.
A collaboration with the brilliant sorcerer Alys Towerfell might be just the way to regain what he’s lost. Or maybe the way to find something even better.
A modern academia AU in which Gale realizes the value of a clean start, Alys learns that it can be very attractive when men talk about chess, and (this is extremely important) Gale wears glasses.

Summary
“I don’t usually watch uh…reality dating programs.”
“Oh, it’s much more than a dating program," the network executive said. "It brings together contestants from all of the Tadpole network’s programming slate and demonstrates what they all have in common at their core. The show is about strategy and human drama. Of course there are relationships but how can one understand the human condition without love?”
“I suppose that’s true,” Gale said cautiously. He had never watched Matchmakers but the trailer sometimes autoplayed on his Tadpole app and most of the contestants seemed to be wearing bathing suits in every shot and yelling at each other. “I’m just still not sure how I could fit into a show with quite so much human drama."
