Who: Cole to everyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Pathstone
When: Now


[Cole is actually looking at the camera, which is a minor miracle for those familiar with his habit of leaving his communicator next to him and pointing at the ceiling.]

How do mortals know what you're feeling? Varric used to tell me what it was, or Jove, or Solas, but they're gone and now I don't know what these feelings are. I can tell how to help other people and how to navigate their hurts but I can't do it with my own.

[He gives a small sigh and looks off somewhere. A fluff slug climbs over the communicator screen.]

[killedwithlove]

Well I am not a ghost. I'm a spirit and we don't haunt anything.

[So there.]

I... don't know. I support so. If they wanted to.

[Of all stories he has heard this is certainly one of the strangest he has ever heard.]

Very well. I will not elaborate on that.

[Duly noted, Compassionate Spirit Inside a Body That Looks Like That Of a Dead Boy...]

It is an odd story...ser. [He can’t help it.] I hope you are able to...determine your other feelings. [That was the other problem, not?]

[killedwithlove]

Oh. Um, thank you?

[He says it like someone has told him to say it in these situations, rather than because he means it.]

[If Old Nan would still live he would been able to tell her even weirder stories upon his return.]

Yes. Thank you. [He has no idea what to make of this.] I do not know an answer to your questions, I think. Just ask people if you feel odd. And they can help you, I think.

[Can this man truly be helped if compassion is the only thing he can understand?]

[killedwithlove]

I hope they can, even if Varric and Jove are gone.

Thank you. For trying to help.

[kingofbadlifechoices]

Then ask others who you trust. Your friends or family. There must be some people here that are close to you.

[Odd complicated feeling-ghost-spirit entity or not, loneliness can be tough on anyone.]

You are welcome.
