Has anyone talked about how Wyll suddenly grows fangs? You ever try to wear fake fangs and suddenly you can't talk properly anymore.
I had to get dentures at 21, new topology in your mouth makes talking TIRING, and HARD.
Here are some headcannons!
He struggles to say a word to someone during the day and at night goes to gale, "I cant say retwackd [retract] :(" and gale tries to help him out.
Lae'zel hears him say something incorrectly and is understanding. "These faerun words twist on my tongue, too. There is no shame in learning to use new tools."
Shadowheart doesn't call attention to it unless prompted. It's not her business, but if Wyll brings it up, Shadowheart admits that she struggles to say "Little", and to Wylls shock and horror, he too can't say little properly. It becomes an inside joke to try to make the other person say little, and eventually they both get a little better at it.
Karlach confidently offers to help, she's had fangs her whole life! But it's difficult to explain to someone how to do something you do automatically. "This isn't helping, Karlach..." "Yeaaaaah... Sorry."
Astarion is giddy, at first, to see the Blade of Frontiers struggeling, but eventually it starts to gnaw at him. "Oh gods, this is embarrassing." He turns to face Wyll. "Flatten your tongue more. And where you try to press for that "r" sound, move the tip of your tongue ever so slightly higher than you would normally." He opens his mouth to demonstrate.
A bit dejected after Karlach's lessons, Wyll tries to follow along and, to his surprise, it actually works.
"How-" but Astarion cuts him off. "You're not the first person in camp who's had to learn to use new teeth, Wyll." His thoughts seem to be drifting off somewhere far away, before snapping back. "Now, if I ever hear you mispronounce "frontiers" again, I'll knock them out for you. Then we won't have a problem anymore."
