You know, all of these comments about PDA have gotten me very interested in imagining how K'nahli, my tribal miqo'te would react were she to witness it in Ul'dah/Thanalan. In her culture, anything of the sort is only permitted to occur between a coupled female and her chosen nuhn - and even then it's not something that is flaunted in others' faces; so simply seeing such behaviour would definitely earn her attention and then from that it would remind her of the outsiders' ways in which they possess the freedom to choose their mates.
Her reaction could vary quite a bit depending on what she saw and how it happened. She could just as easily pass a discreet and persisting eye in their direction as she observed them with a shy curiosity as she could snap her head away in disgust. What would make it incredibly interesting though is that she mayyyy be in the presence of K'rahto the next time she finds herself in Ul'dah. K'rahto is a tia that has pretty much openly expressed his intense infatuation with K'nahli in the best way that a tia can without violating their tribe's ways. To quote him during the relevant scene:
That scene absolutely murdered K'nahli(and me). She was incapable of perceiving herself as anything that could be viewed as attractive to the opposite sex largely due to her cold personality(though she would be very modest about her physical attributes as well) so even though some time has passed since that scene there is still a great deal of discomfort between the two... and that's while they are in or near the comforts of their own home. Visiting Ul'dah will be a horribly awkward but fun scene to play, hahaha.
As a result, I am half hoping she actually witnesses something of the kind while near him just for the sake of playing with her emotions on the matter.
