No not really. I just came round to tease you, frankly.

text;

[pinprick]

Tease me about what?

We are two consenting adults.

It's not even a relationship. We're friends.

[wow you are NO fun where is isabela when you need her]

Oh but why not? Anders is quite the catch once you get past the fact that he's got a spirit kicking around inside of him that glows occasionally.

text;

[pinprick]

I don't do relationships.

[Nathaniel is the anti-fun.]

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Is it the whole Warden thing? I imagine that makes things tricky.

text;

[pinprick]

Yes.

[It's actually more complicated than that, but he doesn't feel like telling Hawke about growing up under his parents' horrible marriage.]

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Things are different here, you know.

text;

[pinprick]

How so?

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

A lot less darkspawn, for one. I haven't seen a single demon either. Not one pending apocalypse!

[pinprick]

I'm still a Grey Warden, Hawke. Anders...isn't.

We would take him back. I know we would take him back.

But considering how he left, I doubt he's in a hurry to return.

Did he tell you?

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

I know the 'why', not sure about the 'how'.

text;

[pinprick]

An ex-templar Warden recruit was apparently not as "ex" as we had believed. He infiltrated us with apparent order to capture or execute Anders if he gave him the excuse. We found him and a few other templars dead when Anders disappeared.

[And now he has diverted nicely away from the subject of why he doesn't do relationships.]

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Well that doesn't surprise me one bit.

text;

[pinprick]

Even we could not protect him.

I'm not sure he'll forgive us that.

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Well he clearly doesn't blame you.

text;

[pinprick]

I'm not sure. He hasn't said anything.

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

The fact that he's living with you and sharing your bed is good enough, don't you think?

text;

[pinprick]

You're reading too much into it. I'm just a warm body.

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

There are a lot of warm bodies here.

text;

[pinprick]

I'm sure he's making his way around to some of them already.

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Regardless, you're making him happy in some capacity.

And I appreciate that.

[pinprick]

[A minute passes before the next text is sent.]

If that's true, then it's about time someone did.

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Thank you. :)

text;

[pinprick]

You say that like I'm doing you a favor.

Am I going to regret getting involved?

text;

[anywayhereskirkwall]

Probably! I inspire that feeling in people.
