It's very rare that Gale's last name gets brought up... well, ever, these days. His reputation as the great wizard of Waterdeep does proceed him.

"Dekarios. Courtesy of my mother, the inimitable, dare I say sometimes unavoidable, Morena Dekarios!" Gale gives an almost awkward smile.

"...Gale Dekarios cuts a poor figure next to the wizarding prowess of Gale of Waterdeep." It's true. The title is what most see in him nowadays anyway. Why bother?

Except... his lover does like Gale Dekarios. Not just Gale of Waterdeep. Gale finds himself sheepish. "You like so many things of me that I'd have sooner disgarded..."

Gale quickly finds himself sentimental at the thought.

"Gale Dekarios likes you too. Very, very much. Though let's keep his existence between ourselves for now..." He lowers his voice to a whisper.

"I'd been thinking of introducing you two proper over a nice meal. My home in Waterdeep has a lovely kitchen. Not only that, but an exceptional wine cellar as well..."

Gale rocks on his heels. Courtship is so difficult when you toss aside all of the fearful titles and bear yourself to one you adore.
