Gallus exaggerated his own coy response, speaking with from a round mouth with his fingers raised. "Well, as it happens, my eyes are working very well as well, perhaps not with as much darkness as you, but I am trying." He laughed though his nose and returned to sincerity. "No, since Sephy and Olivia made their feelings about my behaviour clear when I came back, I've started to practice what I learned since Elsweyr. I've not been...leading people on anymore. Not when I know it's not going to work out. So far, that's only been with one woman, but I doubt she'll be the last." He opened a hand. "Well, it would be two if I include you. You fit that category as well, I suppose."

Gallus lifted his shoulders in a deep breath and exhaled with a considering hum. He didn't seem so sure of himself until he returned his attention to Ri'vashi. "So!" He leaned forward on one fist, elbow on the table and his other hand on his hip. He ignored any notion of stress reducing Ri'vashi's chances. "Have either of them expressed interest in you?" He showed half his teeth in a poorly stifled grin. "I didn't know you were interested in Argonians."
