Good to know. I'll be on the lookout. [ For...?? someone that looks like they belong in his family??? Don't talk to him about logistics right now. ]

So, from the way you said it earlier, it sounds as if there are more than a few of us from Thedas around.

[fantachetic]

Quite a few, actually. Let's see.. There is myself, and now you. There is a spirit from the Fade, a grey warden whom we discussed previously, two Inquisitors, two Champions of Kirkwall, and an elf from Tevinter with rather impressive tattoos. You'll have to forgive me if I've forgotten anyone. Hearing it is rather an exhausting affair.

[trudge]

The 'viewers' must love us! [ Either that or Atroma or whatever is super rude and biased? Whatever the case, Rowan seems interested. ]

...Wait. There's a Fade spirit here? No one — Everyone is fine with that?

[fantachetic]

Certainly. We are all here in the same situation, are we not? He's not so bad. A bit odd, but interesting.

[trudge]

[ A pause. Then, Rowan just shrugs and reaches for a tankard on a platter going by. If the barmaid notices, he has no idea. ] Fair enough, I suppose. So long as he isn't causing any trouble.

[ He waves his hand vaguely. ] So do you... like it here? In space?

[fantachetic]

It's not completely horrid, I will admit. [ He finishes off his drink and orders another like a civilized human being!!! ]

It could be a bit warmer, but that can be said about the South, as well.

[trudge]

[ Wow you think you're so much better than him, don't you?! Well... you're right. ]

Oh, it's not that cold. Most of the time. [ Ferelden sucks don't even lie. ] Where are you from anyway?

[fantachetic]

[ He thinks he's better than most people. Or at least he pretends he does. ]

It is miserable most of the time. [ Oh. ] Tevinter. Yes, I know. Scandalous.

[trudge]

Tevinter? [ Oh, that is scandalous! ] Oh, let me guess! You're a ... [ He pretends to think on it. Deep thinking. So deep. Also, he needs to take a drink so give him a second. ] A mage.

[fantachetic]

Alas, my cover has been thwarted. [ He puts the back of his hand to his forehead. ]

[trudge]

[ Rowan leans in, voice low, a hand moving to Dorian's back. You know, just in case he faints. Or Rowan faints. Who knows. ]

Fear not. Your secret is safe with me.

[fantachetic]

Rather a poorly-kept secret. [ Just going to take a long drink of ale, don't mind him. ]

[trudge]

There's worse things to be. [ He grins. ] You could be an ugly Tevinter mage.

[fantachetic]

Perish the thought! [ He would rather die. ]

[trudge]

[ He puts a hand on Dorian's shoulder. ] Don't worry. You're by far the most handsome Tevinter mage I have ever seen. I swear it.

[fantachetic]

[ That gets a laugh out of him. ] I certainly try. You're not so hard on the eyes, yourself.

[trudge]

And you haven't even seen the best part yet. [ WINK. ]

[fantachetic]

And he's full of confidence.

[trudge]

You don't have to tell me, I can see it on your eyes: You've fallen head over heels for me.

[fantachetic]

How can I possibly go on after tonight without you? I would be at quite a loss. [ He could be strong with enough alcohol in his system. ]

[trudge]

Clearly, the only solution then is to take me home with you.

[fantachetic]

So bold in your assumption! [ That's pretty much a ticket to go home. ]
