Imagining the Bonds between Taako, Magnus, and Merle constantly pulling them together before they finally “officially” meet in that bar. Just random hapinstances that they don’t even notice or remember.

-Taako baked the cakes for both Magnus’ and Merle’s weddings.

-Merle’s kids dragging him to Taako’s show

- Magnus fixing Taako’s caravan when it crashes in Ravens roost.

-Merle spreading the good news of pan door to door.

-Julia has somehow had long conversation with both Taako and Merle.

Just many little “so close yet so far moments” being extremely frustrating for a universe trying to push them together

at one point theyre all in neverwinter. Taako is looking into a shops window. His back facing the streets and his big hat is obscuring his face. Magnus walks past him trying to read a map and doesnt notice. Merle walks past him at the same time holding a large shrubbery. he accidentally bumps into magnus and without looking is like “oops, sorry” and magnust doesnt even notice.
