Ha, Good one, Corgi. I agree as well.

Gil has tended to accomplish immediate objectives in ways that set up long range outcomes. E.G. He defeated Knights of Jove while showing off to Agatha AND laying the ground work for gaining the title of storm king. Thus turning the legend to his advantage. The same motivation is the only thing that explains IMO his current willingness to take the risk of the SVV procedure with Tarvek. In saving him, Gil gains a claim to part of Tarvek's birthright. That makes the crazy thing sane almost.

Now if I could only figure out a sane reason for his comment about his father and waffles?
