Gargoyle the Conversationalist

What makes this faerie special? 
She is naked.
The gargoyle rolled his eyes.
They are all naked under their clothes, he said.
True enough.

She is pretty.
He scoffed.
She is kind and generous.
He kept waving his hand, encouraging her to tell him more.
An expert at not having to hold up his end of a conversation.

My father-in-law was like that. He could whittle story after story out of you with his eyes and a wave or two.
