[ Gale has proven himself to be one of the most capable wizards in the world, worthy of being granted Godhood in the wrong situations, and yet. Iorveth watches as Gale throws his hands up, protesting the first half of Astarion's assertion without quite registering the implications of the second.
"Yes, because surely one isn't entitled to a bit of an attitude after―"
Iorveth laces fingers with Astarion, watching Gale shift gears in real time. The cogs of that ever-turning mind, switching directions.
"―Sorry, did you say wedding?" A laugh here, as if Gale is fully expecting Astarion to pipe back with 'haha jk'. "Whose, exactly?"
He asks, then slowly starts to turn red, as if he's just starting to realize how stupid the question sounds. Poor guy. Iorveth laughs again, bringing their held hands up to his lips, kissing where the ring would be sitting on Astarion's finger if he'd prepared one for this moment. ]
Should we tell him?
[ Again, the meanest elf in Toril. Enjoying watching the smartest man in the room stumble.
"Oh no, oh gods," Gale whines, torn between despair (how could he have been so rude?!?!) and elation (his friends are getting married!!!) (probably???) (oh gods). ]
