He’s twenty four years old—which is still extremely young—and the scene is being exaggerated for comedy (and also likely that the engine might just not be up to the task of expressing his desire to go in a more subtle way). The point is that he understands that his duties and promise to Krile come first beyond a non-Badesion excursion—and indeed, when he talks about going on future adventures with us in the aftermath of 6.0, it’s in the context of Baldesion commissions of particular difficulty or interest—but we’ve come here with a personal request for him, so the temptation to drop everything and go is real…

(And again as for that so-called all-consuming obsession with us, the first thing he does is suggest Y’shtola join us, so it’s not like he’s trying to get us alone to have his wicked way with us)

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying you personally have to like G’raha or find the scene funny. I’m also not saying there aren’t things to criticize or that the game can’t lean a little too hard into him as a comedy character. I just don’t think it’s a character inconsistency that he’s excitable and loves the idea of exploring shit with someone he admires.
