ohmigod you guys Khalid is so cute i want fifty

[quiet squeeing] This is some next level romancey stuff. I love it. Caden is absolutely eating this up; given his line he’s clearly had his own share of pining– maybe after some visitors that came in to Candlekeep now and again, seeming all sophisticated and worldly.

(…He’s absolutely going to do this when Aerie comes around at first in BGII; he’s used to being the kind of sheltered country boy when beautiful ladies come around, doesn’t actually have any experience except for flirting briefly with the werewolf lady in BGI. And when he meets Aerie – since evidently she’s dropdead gorgeous – he’s gonna be a little slackjawed and believe there’s no way he could have a chance. And it’s going to be ADORABLE. *excited bouncing*)

But omg I’m just picturing this scene and Jaheira being all gruff as Khalid comes bursting in and then admitting she feels the same way…ja;sldfjaposdfjpoajdfa.

So cute.

Atta boy Khalid! \o/

eeeeeeee :D

(You have the option to charge him 200 gold for the aquamarine. But we are not that kind of jerk. c: )

AU/OC moment (where J and k raised the bhaalspawn instead of Gorion)

I just really wanted to draw jaheira in that meme and then I added a Khalid with Evune to bring it all together

YIPPEE YIPPEE YIPPEE

Baldur’s Gate

Things are starting to get weird in my "young Jaheira for screenshots" playthrough. XD

I amuse myself. XD

Made some fanart for @marigoldbaker!

It’s from a scene in their fanfic “I’ll be waiting for you (if you ever wanna be there)” which is a coffee shop/modern AU

Normally I don’t have much interest in either modern AUs or coffee shop AUs but i have been awakened- I loved this fic and wanted to draw it! I don’t know why I cast Gorion as the manager in my head but I did and he’s there too. I nicknamed the coffee shop “candlekeep coffee” because I thought it was funny :)

Might color it eventually idk the idea of coloring the background scares me lol

When I eat my meals and drink my water and I STILL get a headache 😔

Life isn’t fair

May or may not be cooking something up

Something I think about is Khalid’s mother

Because in the first game in Khalid’s background she is not mentioned at all, and in siege of dragonspear she is mentioned as ‘not thinking much of him’ but to a lesser extent than his father did who we all agree was a POS

1. What was she like?

like her life probably sucked a lot.

She was an elven concubine in a country that is pretty much devoid of any other elves, and so she was seen as exotic, which is probably why Khalid‘s father had her as a concubine in the first place.

She would always be below his actual wife and I won’t get into all of the horrible things that could’ve happened to her prior or during this time

And then on top of everything, she has a illegitimate kid with the dude!

I doubt Khalid’s father or his wife (mother of Khalid’s half brothers) was particularly interested in raising him, so it was probably all on her.

So now on top of her life already probably sucking, she has this kid in a world that is guaranteed to be hostile towards him because he is considered lower by default.

There’s no way she could protect him from that even if she did try.

Maybe there was a combination of resentment of having another thing on her plate to take care of but also guilt about having this kid that she feels is guaranteed to have a miserable life

2. Was their relationship purely indifference and neglect or was there some love?

Is it possible that she walled herself off from him so that when he was inevitably hurt it didn’t hurt her as much? Like self protection so she only had to feel her own hurt

Were there good moments? Where she would protect him or comfort him in ways she felt she could?

Maybe she held some hope that because his father was of the merchant class Khalid would get further than she could only to have those hopes crushed within her lifetime

3. How does Khalid feel about her?

Maybe he is a bit overly forgiving of her actions because of he knows her circumstances (Which probably annoys Jaheira lol)

Maybe there’s some resentment for not being the mother he needed but he feels guilty about having those feelings

Maybe she just fades into the background of his childhood

There’s so many possibilities because we know nothing about her so we get to fill in the blanks!

My reply of the (somewhat) reverse

Jaheira very much knows what she’s doing

They truly complement each other in all ways

Khalid's fine bottom,,, I imagine it's very squishable

Time to spend the money....

Third from Right is Jaheira... hope they made her pretty or I really need to buy that 3d printer to make my own~
