video ♪ the viewers really want the D(warf)
Who: Varric and open
Broadcast: Video, and open!
Action: The Marsiva.
When: Thursday afternoon
[video;]
[The feed opens with a glorious shot of a gold-embroidered scarlet tunic-- a nice, slow pan across the gently furred planes of a man's chest, the brassy necklace resting across his collarbone, the dip of his throat--
-- and then he punches the camera upward.]
Ha ha, all right, you've had your fill. Stubborn metal piece of shit. [Varric looks none-too-amused.] Just tell me who took all my wine and maybe, maybe I won't tear the walls down.
[He leans back and rubs at his face. While he's usually pretty sharp and charismatic, right now there's a glimpse of how tired he is.]
Something tells me I'm gonna need it after you all tell me what happened while I was--
[A pause. He glances offscreen, takes in the sight of the stars and the hospitality deck of the Marsiva. Kidnapped three times? Really? What the hell is his life?]
-- somewhere else.

[Varric adjusts his gloves.]
Then it's a deal. As soon as I'm shoved onto another ship, I'll let you know. We can have a few drinks, trade tales. Maybe I'll raid your closet for something that doesn't look like a burlap sack.

[He chuckles.]

[He misses Mae's humor. At least he's got a friend of hers around.]

[With Felix gone, she was the closest thing he had to a friend in the Imperium. Magisters like her, with a good sense of right and wrong and a wicked sense of humor, were rare indeed.
Perhaps it was what made her like a sapphire among pebbles.]
She could have me dressed in silk and feathers and I'd be thanking her for the opportunity to parade around like a peacock in her garden.
[And then he laughs, and honest, warm laugh that he reserves for very few.]
