Gippal is good at damage control. But not good enough. You are very good at showing the characters' reactions to this.

I love how he is worried about his gracefulness even in the midst of this mess. I love his worries about Brother coming after him.

I like the selfish way Gippal is upset about having to make a choice. I think it's very realistic that Rikku isn't buying his story and I enjoy that he feels he has to defend himself - sooo not gay. Heh. That's such a guy thing.
