"Pretend you're my boyfriend," Gale glanced over his shoulder and then back to Astarion. "Quick, please. I'll make it up to you, I promise."
"Pretend I'm your what?" Astarion asked, blinking his eyes a few times as he looked to the wizard with the expression of a puzzled cat. They were in the markets of Baldur's Gate, the two of them somehow trusted with enough gold to pick up supplies whilst the others gathered information. He'd been looking at the display of food on the stands in front of him, wondering why in the world he was the one tasked with picking it out when he didn't even consume the stuff.
That's when the wizard had come up behind him, rather close behind him, giving the vampire a surprisingly little bit of a start and then posing the question and offering a favor all in one breath. "Gale, darling, are you feeling all right? Did you hit your head or something? What's going on?"
