Though staring may not necessarily be a crime, if it makes you uncomfortable, I could speak to him. I cannot blame anyone for feeling their eyes drawn towards you, however.
[Temporarily the gears in the drow's mind grind to a stop as she stared dumbly down at her journal on her lap. Did he..? Was he...? No no, surely not. Koh wasn't nearly egotistical enough to compare herself to the ethereal beauty of a literal goddess. The way he spoke about Mystra with such awe in his voice still rung in her head. No. There had to be a more straightforward explanation. Maybe it was the simple fact that she was a drow walking around topside? Where ever they went she was not blind to the stares she received from others. That had to be it. Yes. Maybe if she denied it even harder that she would believe it herself. When in doubt, deflect with humor!]
Don't tell that you're also planning on sneaking into my tent to sink your teeth into my neck, too. Waking up to you would be an improvement.
[Wait- No! Too much. STARES AT HER HAND WITH BETRAYAL.]
[The last strands of rational thought snapped in her mind as images of the deed flashed before her eyes. For the briefest of moments, the scene of Gale looming over her as she laid peacefully in her bedroll right before he moved in to bury his teeth into the tender flesh of her neck and her dream self letting out a sound unbecoming of someone of her position played out in front of her. There was an almost violent jerk to the thought as she ripped her mind away, trying to think of anything else. Get a grip on yourself. It had been an embarrassing long time since she's been romantically entangled with anyone. Not that this is what was going on! They were friends and she held a deep respect for the wizard. But the heat that flooded all the way to the tips of her pointy ears was telling a different story. Doing her best to push through, she centered herself to write back.]
And I am a lady. Such an invitation like that needs to be earned, Gale. Make me dinner first and we'll see where it goes.

oh good he broke her. these two...
Of course, she was teasing, he reasons. Deflecting his own awkward slip with a playful quip of her own. There's no other explanation!]
I would never even imagine doing anything of the sort without an invitation. I still fancy myself a gentleman, after all.
[That's... hm. Not as much of an improvement as he'd thought?]
Welp, that didn't help unbreak her, Gale....

[WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!]
