Current mood: a “Gil raised on Skifander” au where Zeetha pesters Agatha into asking her brother out by talking about what a HOT COMMODITY he is back home as the EXOTICALLY BEAUTIFUL son of the Queen of Skifander, and how mom has to beat back his suitors with a STICK because there are so many and Gil breaks ALL their hearts because he’s waiting for his One True Love
Gil hears this after a while and is like “NONE OF THAT IS TRUE” but it is. it’s all true. Gil is like, Martian Cleopatra and has at least fifteen love poems written about him every week and he hates it so much
Honestly as hilarious as this is and as much as I can see Zeetha trying that, I don’t really imagine Agatha caring how much of a hot commodity Gil is back in Skifander. Maybe a little bit if she decides they’re competition, but even then, they’re in Skifander and Agatha is the Heterodyne, clearly she wins, they are not a threat. I don’t think she’d really be motivated by Gil being the perfect trophy boyfriend.
Now, Tarvek on the other hand….
Zeetha tells Agatha all of this attempting to get her to ask Gil out. Tarvek overhears and asks Gil out himself. Agatha later asks them both out, somewhat aggressively due to thwarted spark irritation about not being the first to ask. (They’re both into it though so that’s fine.)
