He isn't ungrateful to Gale for helping—quite the opposite—but he, as expected, has the second worst timing known to man. (The only timing worse would be if he called up while Astarion's hand was still on Iorveth's prick.) He was hoping to roll around in bed a little more, be kissed a lot more, maybe sink his fangs into Iorveth another time—
But there's Gale's nasally and excited voice, and Astarion can't very well ignore it like he normally does. He sits up, unsure whether to scowl or grin given the circumstances. As irritated as he is to have the first real affection he's gotten from Iorveth in a tenday interrupted, the thought of a 'compelling lead' is, well, compelling.
He snatches Iorveth's borrowed pants up off of the floor, holding them out for him to take. There isn't much to be done about the shirt situation, nor is there anything that will change the fact that Iorveth looks like he had a run-in with a rabid bat. Gale will probably find what they've been doing up here to be very impolite, and he won't be wrong. Too bad Astarion doesn't care. ]
Coming! [ he calls back, if only so Gale doesn't try to come up here before Iorveth can get dressed. ]
