    Summary

    Gale really wasn’t the type of person to normally frequent a brothel, much less make use of the services on offer. He’d been dragged along by a group of other students at the Caldwell School of Evocation, unwilling to completely ruin his reputation with his peers by revealing himself to be too stuck-up for a night out just tendays into his half-year in the Gate.

    Then, a young woman dropped her book. A Netherese history book, at that. His first thought was she must be another academy student, one he simply hadn’t met before. She was more than clever enough, whip-smart really, with an attention to detail he could only admire. And either her memory was excellent, or she’d read the heavy tome she was lugging around at least thrice.

    She was witty, and sweet, and willing to put up with his nonsense. When she laughed at one of the worst jokes he’d made in days, he felt something in his stomach swoop, a sense of mingled fear and elation settling in his veins. If he liked her this much after a conversation, how might he feel after, say, a proper date?

    Or

    It's an AU where Gale's an exchange student in Baldur's Gate and Helaena's working in the kitchen in Sharess' Caress, ok?
