So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes
No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight

Yep, you sure read that one wrong. Turns out Tal may not be the most obtuse young man here, because while the flirtatious teasing has gone over the Courier's head, it's based on a situation Koa is now realizing he's entirely made up.
Luckily (or unfortunately, personal growth wise) he's too distracted by this new revelation to be properly chagrined, instead turning to Talyson with risen brows. "Wait, really?" He doesn't know exactly why Tal having a girlfriend is surprising, or why he thinks he ought to have known about it before. It's not like they're all that close, really.
Still.
Of course the mood dampens with Talyson's demeanor, trouble in paradise being something Koa knows somehow both a lot and very little about. Again he reaches for the Messenger's shoulders, squeezing gently at the base of his neck, beneath the scruffy hair. "Well, sounds like we have our task laid out," the Dragoon declares, glancing back at Thorn with an invitational look. "Find your girl the best gift ever, so she'll come running back to your arms." Still a wingman, that's our Koa, just with a new target.
"Thorn here looks like he's got exceptional taste," the young man adds with half a smirk, free to up the charm a notch now that he knows Tal isn't pining for the courtesan. "Care to lead the way? I have absolute faith in your abilities." The lilting way the sentence ends leaves room to interpret just what abilities are meant.

Koa
No other version of me I would rather be tonight
And, Lord, she found me just in time
And, Lord, she found me just in time
