Summary
We all know Barcus deserves better. Who better to give it to him than a certain sweet wizard from Waterdeep with a similar history (in terms of a one-sided relationship with a manipulative, exploitative ex)?
This is the *beginning* of that story.
Setup is pretty much canon. Tav & co. rescue Wulbren. Wulbren is a prick. Barcus is devastated but does his best not to show it. Gale has a soft spot in his heart for Barcus and does his best to comfort him.
Pre-relationship, but all sort of clearly headed in that direction. Relationship (so far) is platonic in fact... but romantic in feeling.
