[ "I like it when you don't think about things" is a little questionable, especially since Iorveth's foundational trait is chronically planning and being paranoid, but he likes to think he understands what Astarion means. Iorveth charitably (?) interprets it as "hey, relax", which is what he does. A full-body slump, letting himself be vulnerable despite Damris' presence in the other room.

Another thing that's a bit questionable is the lingering concern that Iorveth might leave, but that's also explainable: he nearly died tonight. Bad dreams the night prior, followed by an attempted assassination. Iorveth, too, would feel on-edge.

So. Meeting the reach, Iorveth slides into Astarion's space and subjects himself to whatever maneuvering Astarion sees fit.

I'm right here. [ Iorveth of a few tendays ago might have said this to the tune of "you're being ridiculous", but not the Iorveth of today. ] I'll not leave you unless you tell me to.
