If the subject comes up, Gregor can just answer Charlotte quietly but honestly: "yeah, I wanna, but I don't want to propose right now 'cause Chris & Ami.' Pretty sure she would understand.I would be more worried about a public shameing than a quiet conversation, to be honest. Charlotte asking in private is one thing. Someone else going "Hey Gregor, what's the deal with you and her?" out loud would be a little more tricky
: "What? Er, no. I'm afraid not."I thought Gregor wasn't proposing to Charlotte yet.He's not, but if the subject comes up it might be difficult to get out of without hurting someone's feelings.You can still hang out and talk with the rest of us without pressing the subject.
Lulz.Buuut what's wrong with things being obviously up? It's still RP.Put yourself in Gregor's shoes for a moment. You walk back in just after rushing out. Someone without a lot of tact (say, Tantallos) then says (out loud):
Anyway, prepare for gratuitous usage of Alex's blush sprite.
"Hey sentinel guy, why'd you run out of the room just as sniper girl walked in? Are you trying to avoid her or something?"
Then what do you say?
"I was just picking her a giant bouquet of flowers as a representation of my undying love. But on my way in, an evil Light Mage turned them invisible. Here, Tantallos, I know you can fix it if you try hard enough!"

Gregor should sneak back in through another entrance. Or something. Why exactly did he run and hide? He worried that if he proposes to Charlotte now it'll look like monkey-see monkey-do?Partly this, partly because he doesn't want to accidentally "steal Chris' thunder". Would you want one of your friends to propose at your own wedding announcement? This is Chris and Ami's turn in the spotlight.
