While Garrot was plenty tempted to disregard Luka's question and act like it never happened, that would be incredibly rude. So instead, his fingertips give a subtle stroke across Luka's back, if only to keep that from getting utterly buried.

"What, you think I've just been doing push-ups for six days?" Garrot's eyes roll so emphatically that the back of his head digs into the Princess's stomach for just a moment. "I get around, I'm usually pretty likable, and then people talk." Sure, sometimes he harasses them to talk, like with Gyre, but the point still stands. And his steps start to slow down until he's almost skulking around... with someone on his shoulders.

"If you're not sure about anyone, I probably know something." They can flirt until the sun sets, Garrot doesn't mind that at all. But if the Princess wants to trust him with power, wants to try and get his insights, he can at least offer to spill the beans from his almost relentless socializing.
