Gale is my autistic mirror

Hi everyone, I'm a Wild Magic Bard who has channeled over 1,400 hours into Baldur’s Gate 3. My life has always felt like one continuous Wild Magic Surge—unpredictable, chaotic, and often draining my spell slots. However, I discovered a reflection of my own essence through Gale, which eventually guided me toward a clinical diagnosis of autism.

Gale was kind to my Tav, allowing me to study this fascinating wizard and reflect on my own origin story. Like him, I was a "lonely prodigy" in my youth. I began to see the converging runes: the social awkwardness, the emotional intensity, and the heavy masking coupled with a verbal obsession. These days, I’m recasting my life with this new understanding.

I wanted to cast this story into the Weave, but since it feels quite "medical," I wasn't sure if this was the right plane of existence for it. I chose this sub because it's full of Gale fans who truly understand the depths of his character sheet. English is a low-level spell for me, so I might trigger a Wild Magic Surge in my grammar—please roll with advantage on your understanding if my translation is a bit clunky!
