Crystal Connor asked Sylvain Reynard:

Have you ever...? Then I'm glad I'm your first. I absolutely loved this. Where did it come from? Have you ever used this line to impress a love interest?

Sylvain Reynard Hello Crystal,
Thanks for your question.

Sometimes lines come to me fully formed. This was one of them. When I was writing that scene, I imagined Gabriel partially teasing Julia. But he respects her innocence and is honoured by her sharing it with him, of all people.

I think the Professor is the only person who could get away with saying the things he says …

All the best and thanks for reading,
SR
