“I just wanted you to feel appreciated,” Arabella lied, stroking his cheek reverently.
This QOTD inspired me to write sad shit lol. Bella and Gale have sex, Gale has a mindblowing orgasm, unaware it'll be the last one he ever shares with her.

#TavQOTD Reunion ❤️
I explored this in an old Gale and Bella fic where I wrote an alternate ending. Bella goes to war and Gale waits and waits and waits…
Until one day, she comes back 🥹

"I assure you my practiced hands are adept at more than just magic.” 👐🏻 ✨
Gale convinces Bella to let him give her a massage in the third trimester of her pregnancy, where she's feeling especially sore and tired.
A soft, mushy scene. ❤️

If there's a chronology it might be helpful to post them in that order so people get to experience the story as you intended. I also recommend creating a hashtag for your works as a way of organising everything, I use #RoseWrites and it helps me immensely especially if I need to find a post quickly
MODERN AU HAS A NEW CHAPTER 🎉 🎉
I have taken such a long time to update this, I’m going to be on top of it this year!
If you haven’t read the fic I’d love it if you gave it a chance ❤️
Read chapter 8: archiveofourown.org/works/539966...

IT'S HAPPENING 👀
This chapter is sad as hell as it's the comedown after Gale and Bella have sex for the first time, where she cheats on her (admittedly shitty) fiancé.
A little preview 👇🏻
#RoseWrites #Hammerweave #ModernAU
"I was terrified I’d lost you. Utterly terrified."
Bella forgets to write to Gale while she's been gone on a quest. Gale is not happy when she returns home.
I wanted to write a little argument scene based off this post because everyone fucks up.
#RoseWrites #Hammerweave #Arabella 🔨 #GaleDekarios
I haven’t shared this fic publicly in a while because it is very heavy and depressing.
But I once wrote a character study about Gale depressed and humiliated in his tower and I’m quite proud of it, even 3 years later.

You can read about that moment right here. It’s my interpretation of what happened in act 2, and one of my fave pieces ☺️

“I have wanted to court you properly for so long, you have no idea.” 💐 🍽️
King Gale visits an cottage he used to frequent with his friend turned kingsguard, Arabella. He expresses regrets for not loving her sooner.

"Let’s be quick though, I don’t want to spend our lovely weekend retreat in a jail cell, okay?” 🌊🤫
This is the first complete thing I've written this week so I'll take it. A silly snippet about skinny dipping with your fiancé in a hotel pool.
#RoseWrites #Hammerweave #GaleDekarios #BG3Fic
"We’ve made love countless times before but now there’s this… *intention* behind it, I suppose it feels different." 💜🔥
My final piece for the @lovemarriagebg3.bsky.social zine where #Hammerweave share a soft, emotionally driven night of passion.

In case you didn't know, I have a series of one shots about Bella and Gale if you'd like to read more about their dynamic ❤️
Some of these fics were written two years ago so I do think I've improved, but I'm still proud of them!

Read about my horrible OC here 😂
She’s a human sorcerer who does everything for her own gain I hate her so much. If Lenore Gortash has no haters I am dead.

“Welcome to Waterdeep, little one.” 👶🏻🔮
Slowly returning to my Strawpage prompts (writers block is very hard lol)
This one is a cute snippet where Gale meets Eleanor for the first time, and all the emotions that come with it.
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨 #GaleDekarios #BG3Fic #HammerweaveFamily #BG3
“See,” Arabella chuckled, kissing his forehead again. “Your brain is *still* full of wonderful ideas.”
I decided to go through my Strawpage prompts and what better place to start than "Gale has a creative block". Yeah me too buddy. 😅

Feeling the worst I've felt in a long time (womp womp) but trying to get my mojo back by revisiting some WIPs. 🙏🏻
Hopefully I'll be able to finish off my modern AU in the New Year because I read over it again and I just love them. This dialogue is especially sweet to me idk
#RoseWrites #Hammerweave
IT'S HERE! ❤️
Head to the Family section to read about #Hammerweave trying for a baby. This is a special fic for me and it's accompanied by some VP too.
Check out Rachel's Spicy Time pack which I used here: www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3...
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨 #GaleDekarios #BG3 #NSFW
This bit of dialogue is one of my favourite things I've written. Bella hadn't flirted in a long time and maybe her choice of words is cringe, but she feels safe enough to make a sexy joke with Gale which is a big deal
Bella losing herself in the moment is everything to me ❤️
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨
An elven woman and a human man kiss under the mistletoe while their son watches them, unimpressed. The screenshot is accompanied by a snippet written by me, poking fun at Hammerweave's little tradition.
#Galemas Day 1: Mistletoe 💋
“Are you going to do this *every* day in the build up to Yuletide?”
Inspired by me talking about #Hammerweave embarrassing their children, here's Tristan unamused by them making out in the name of festive cheer.

// CW: death, grief //
"He was plagued with thoughts of spiking her tea with healing potions and entertaining her belief that she’d been saved by the divine..."
Been thinking about Bella's illness and eventual death so I wrote something yeah idk 😭
#RoseWrites #Hammerweave #Arabella 🔨 #BG3 #OC
My Gale YCH fic is half price for the last four slots as I want to do more of these. ❤️ I can do these as surprise gifts too.
Once these are gone I won't be opening again as I want to try a different YCH next year!

"Is this the first time you've felt them move?" 🥺👶🏻
I found this old snippet where Bella feels baby Ellie kick for the first time and she and Gale have a ~moment~. My writing style has changed since this one but I still like it. ❤️

My sad Ketheric character study from @bg3hallozine.bsky.social is now on AO3 🥀 🕯️
I was very interested in the early days of Ketheric’s grief before we meet him in game so here we go.

“Will you show yourself? Can I see you?” 👻🏠
#Hammerweave Phasmophobia AU where young ghost hunter Bella earns the trust of the tormented spirit Gale who will only talk to her.
A ghost love story I may finish, I may not. 🫣
#RoseWrites #HammerweaveAU #GaleDekarios
#BG3FirstsWeek Failure (this is a re-share because I thought it was fitting)
⚠️ self-flagellation, self-harm, referenced child death ⚠️
When Arabella fails to save a little boy in a local village, she begs for forgiveness and shows Ilmater just how much pain she can bear.
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨
#BG3FirstsWeek Trying something new
“I always pack bandages, I am but a squishy wizard, after all."
I bent the rules so this is "Bella's first time letting Gale heal her" because accepting help is a skill? It's been on my mind all day soz. 😭
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨 #GaleDekarios #Hammerweave #BG3
#BG3FirstsWeek Conflict 🤬
“I don’t need my big paladin mother swooping in and saving me, I told you, I’m fine.”
14-year-old Ellie argues w/ her mother when she tries to go out late at night. Another dialogue heavy one about family dynamics / parenting.
#RoseWrites #HammerweaveFamily #BG3Fic #BG3
#BG3FirstsWeek First Kiss 💋
“Young Arabella frequented taverns, made silly bets, kissed strangers…”
One night in camp, Arabella reflects on her first kiss and Gale learns a *little* bit about her past. I love writing their early days. 😭
#RoseWrites #Arabella 🔨 #GaleDekarios #Hammerweave #BG3Fic
“It’s a shame, though, that you’re already making such a mess of your pretty things…” 💦
Bella buys sexy lingerie for the first time and realises how much she enjoys it. She's so used to being practical, so treating herself was *very* exciting. 👀
