007 // blink and you'll miss a revolution

Who: Dorian!
Broadcast: Fleet-wide!
Action: On the Three Twins
When: 5/26, night

Well, now that we've all gotten our fill of rampant debauchery, I thought I might pose a little question to you, Fleet. A more...somber question.

[Dorian looks considering for a moment, and when he speaks, he talks with his hands as much as his mouth. It seems like a subject he's certainly into, that's for sure.]

What would you do if, for example, you disagreed with the politics of your home? What measures would you go to? At what cost would you ensure that things were righted, were changed for the better?

[He raises a brow.]

Would you kill for it? Would you bring about chaos and disarray because the end would justify those means, as it were? How many deaths can be justified by a revolutionary change? 10? 100? Thousands? If it were for the greater good, how many lives could you sacrifice?

[He brings the hand back to his chin, thinking.]

Color me curious. What are your politics there?

[That was not the answer Fenris wanted to hear, and something like disappointment crosses his face, for just a moment, before it's replaced with the anger again. ]

By charging off into Tevinter trying to change it, throwing to them to the serpents is exactly what you'll be doing. Do you think the Magisters will sit back and just let you reform them? Do you think they will listen to a word you have to say? They have no incentive to change, and any attempt to do so will be met with resistance. And for that, they will use the people they consider disposable.

[His fists clench for a second, the desire to punch the daylights out of something is strong.]

Of course, if you consider them justifiable deaths, perhaps you do, too.

[He'll regret saying that, later, but he's never been the best at filtering out what he wants to say and what he should. He's definitely not good at stopping himself from jumping to conclusions. Anger does little to help that. He doesn't even listen for Dorian's reply, he just snaps off his communicator and throws it on the table. ]
