From a scientific perspective, yes, I can understand how you would be intrigued. /I'm/ intrigued, and I'm little more than a layman.

But at least admit to one thing, Rosalind: You /would/ gawk. If even just a little.

[originallutece]

I would be interested. Did I gawk at your healing powers?

[daemonized]

You gawked a little.

[originallutece]

I was perfectly reasonable as I came over to experiment.

[daemonized]

I'm the one who saw your face as I healed you. Not the other way around.

[originallutece]

Oh, for heaven's sake. Fine. I was very interested, and that may have shown on my face.

[daemonized]

You were ogling. Or maybe you'd just prefer a plainer word: staring.

[Which are synonyms of... gawking.]

[originallutece]

Now you're simply making it sound like I was leering at you.

[daemonized]

No, leering has negative connotations. You were definitely gawking in a positive way.

[originallutece]

I would argue "ogling" also has negative connotations. I'll accept gawking.

[daemonized]

Very well, so then we've settled it. You were gawking. Agreed?

[originallutece]

Oh, all right. Though if you get smug over this I'm going to be annoyed.

[Except she's laughing, so what is the truth.]

[daemonized]

[If she's amused, then that's all that really matters in the end.]

Me? Smug? Never.
