    Summary

    Sleep. Humans required sleep… and Gale was beginning to resent that simple fact.

    Elves tranced. Half-elves followed suit in lesser measure. Githyanki required little more than a meditative stillness, rigid as a drawn blade even in rest. Tieflings—well, Karlach seemed to run on something that wasn’t sleep at all, something infernal and relentless, a furnace that did not dim. Even Wyll, although still human by birth, had that infernal pact and demonic blood flowing through him, letting him push beyond reasonable limits. Regardless, they could all operate on far less than Gale knew, in the marrow of his bones, that he needed. He had always needed more, and he was painfully ashamed of it.

    Gale, as a human, needs more sleep than the other party members. He chooses to ignore this fact because he doesn't want to slow them down. His body, however, can't keep pushing forever.

    Summary

    That is the real generosity at the heart of his offer, Astarion supposes. There is no expectation. He is free to let his mask slip, free to disengage without any dreadful, half-truth excuses when it does. He’s been given a willing body to taste at his leisure. Astarion may come, if he wishes to. Or he may not. A smile, a shrug, and no further justification needed on either side. All that matters is what he wants.

    Ugh. He does hate that Gale is so thoughtful.
