002; action;

Who: Alistair and anyone who wants to get shitfaced.
Broadcast: Nope.
Action: Varric's bar on the Iskaulit.
When: Tonight. All night. PONY UP.
WARNING: Depending on how conversations go, drunk!Alistair may make vague references to child neglect/abuse, or possibly dubiously consensual sex. Other topics might include violence and extreme daddy issues. Let me know if you want me to specifically avoid any of that!

[ For all intents and purposes, Alistair feels utterly alone. Sure, there are several people in the fleet who know him, but he doesn't seem to know any of them, and so it's weird. And if he's being honest with himself, he was feeling pretty lonely well before he got here. All of the friends he made during the Blight, when they were all on the road together, pretty much left after it ended, after his coronation. Even Amell ran off somewhere with Leliana, leaving him to the tender mercies of his uncle, his late brother's widow, and the rest of the Fereldan nobility.

He's been keeping up a cheerful face - he doesn't really know how to do anything else - but what with being here, learning about things he probably shouldn't have learned about, and having a little bit of money from - somewhere, he's finally just. Showed up to the bar. Varric's is the closest thing to familiar he can find, so he's drinking whatever ale his money can buy. And he's not stopping until the money runs out or he is insensible on the floor. ]


Another. Please.

It's the least I could do.

[He smiles harmlessly.]

When's the last time you played Wicked Grace?

Well, you can't be worse than Anders.

[He clears a spot on the table and begins laying down cards.]

Isn't bluffing a part of politics? You could probably learn something.

No shit. Still, you can't depend on your old lady for everything. [He deals out some cards.] One day you might end up on your own. You need to learn how to keep yourself out of trouble without relying on friendly fugitives.

[That last bit is said with a smile and a little wink.]
merchantprince: (♪ just try to play through the pain)

[Varric lets out a bark of a laugh.]

Puppy dog eyes only work on people who care.
