Ooh. Can't do much planning with Gale outside of the AU since opposite territories but -- especially in the earlier days when Teddy is not like, completely nature elemental -- his knowledge-obsessed vibe totally works with their academic side. "All things can be Questioned and All Questions must be answered" is ...yep.
Also I feel like Teddy's experience with hallucinations and distortions via a life full of focal seizures would make her kind of unimpressed with his illusions, which could be a point of conflict or could just be funny. Like, give me some good shit to research/help you research. Slash, I have some conspiracies, you want? If not I'm here to pet your cat. HI YOU'RE A KITTY!
(The animal loving side is also appealing.)
They'd be friends with regular Gale too, for similar reasons, but given the total impossibility of meeting up it seems legitimately easier to establish CR via 800-year-godhood and then wake up like "wait who are these people".
[As a total side note, I played a character in Monster of the Week who was a Hex (basically, a self-taught magic user who has gone about it via unorthodox methods, leaving them super chaotic) whose Temptation was Forbidden Knowledge, and it's actually incredibly easy after a while to have characters that are otherwise good, caring, etc justify going after it, *especially* if they're obsessive learners -- so if you want any anecdotes...I can definitely ramble about Pen and his methods.]
