[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.]

Well, I guess I'm just curious about the immediately before part. I've been trying to get more details about how exactly we were all brought here. Whatever happened, I was sleeping, so I pretty much missed it.
no subject
[He's not opposed to the idea. And it could net him some information in return, too.]
Have you actually been able to get anything useful from anyone, so far?
no subject
Not a whole lot. I mean, I've been filled-in on the details about how things generally work around here, but, when it comes to whoever's in charge, all I've got is a name: Atroma.
no subject
"Atroma." He'll remember that.]
Hmm. That's disappointing. [A beat, and then he shrugs, back to as lackadaisical as he was before.] Well. I can't say I'll be much help—if any help, really—but if you want to ask, I'll do my best. So long as it doesn't interrupt anything else interesting that might come along.
no subject
Well, it's really just the one question. How much do you remember from before, up until you found yourself here on our ship?
