When: 2/14, not long after shuffling WE ARE BACKDATING THIS MY FRIENDS
[He surprises himself when the feed clicks on easily enough. It's unsettling, but at least it's simple. He can bury the unsettling parts.
Those of you who are familiar—or who have had enough introductions to become familiar—might recognize the striped grey and blue of a Grey Warden uniform, with its high, studded collar, and the curled griffon on the shoulder.
Anders is, for his part, smiling broadly.]
So! Now that I've gotten through the "manhandled into a tin can" bit, closely followed by the "manhandled into a slightly smaller tin can" bit, I thought I'd take some time to say hello. Is everyone comfortable? Because I am not, thanks for asking. [beat] Does it ever bother you how terribly one-sided this is?
[Let him talk and he'll talk. Congratulations on being the captive audience.
Right, back on track.]
Now, I don't usually mind a bit of manhandling, of course, but even I have some standards. It was all terribly anticlimactic. Hardly a kidnapping at all, really.
Anyhow. [with a bit more grandeur:] I believe introductions are in order, don't you? I'm going to eat this [he lifts the little dessert cream in a toast] so you go first.
[Ready: go.]

no subject
[He doesn't trust any templar, retired or no, good or no. But it's her prerogative if she wants to dance with the devil, so to speak.]
No templars here, that's a very good start. I could get used to that.

Bad life choices? Who even knows at this point.]
Believe me, I've never had any urges to see the inside of your towers. I would be more than happy to live as an apostate for the rest of my life.
That said, I wouldn't have picked being kidnapped and forced to live encased in metal either.
no subject
[Said without hesitation, but also without much force behind it. He says it simply, like it's just a fact.]
A very small one, mind. More like a half-step. But if you'd asked me a year or two ago which I'd prefer....
[He shrugs. He prefers the Wardens to the Circle, and that's hardly freedom, either. He'll pick anything over the Circle, except maybe for the Qunari.]
no subject
[Can you tell how much more she likes living on the moons? Because it's quite a lot.]
