driftfleet | news flash: pants are never required.

Who: marian hawke & you!
Broadcast: fleetwide video.
Action: ss tourist.
When: time is irrelevant!! the 21st?? idk timelines.

Hello all of you wonderful people, spirits, and creatures of otherworldly origins.

[ Something has put Marian Hawke into an incredibly good mood, why she is practically beaming when she turns on the feed. It almost looks like she just gotten out of bed, deciding the next best course of action is to raid the fridge of what could possibly be her own ship. Which, incidentally, it is not.

For those aboard the Tourist when you enter the kitchen you'll be greeted by Hawke sitting upon one of benches, dressed in nothing more than a somewhat ill fitting tunic ( Fenris isn't that much larger than her, damn scrawny elf ) and her small clothes. That's right, she has forgone pants entirely. Thankfully, or rather unfortunately, the video only shows her upper body, messy dark hair, and Cheshire cat grin. ]

For those who don't know me, my name is Hawke. Marian Hawke, to be precise, but please call me Hawke. It's absolutely lovely to meet you, if I haven't already.

[ She gives a little wave. ]

I was wondering how are we all doing? Hopefully no one has been eaten by any carnivorous plants, or lost their clothes in an card game. [ Yes, she is very concerned about people getting eaten by plants or losing clothes in a card game. The former is unfortunate, the later... well she'd be more upset she wasn't invited. ] I hear getting eaten by a planet can be worse than being chewed on by a bear or a dragon.

Anyway lets chat, I'm incredibly curious what has been going on around the fleet.

I do, indeed.

[She grins, looking over her shoulder a bit. Really that was more for drawing out the suspense than being worried about being overheard.]

Fenris. That is definitely Fenris' tunic.

Fenris?

[Interesting. Fenris with a mage. And considering what happened during the battle with the dragon-

No, no need to worry over that right now.]

You are sure beyond a doubt?

As sure as I am about anything. The two were together in our version of Thedas as well and she was a mage there too.

[Riona is going to settle in for some gossip. Maker they needed some more happy things to talk about around here.]

I will have to tease him about it next time I see him. Though I am quite happy for both of them. She isn't the Hawke from his Thedas, so I wonder how this all came about.

I'll admit, I'm curious too. He saw her use blood magic, no? During the dragon fight.

[She'd definitely seen it.]

I would assume so.

[Perhaps that had something to do with Marian's mood after the battle.]

They must have talked it through. Or maybe because the circumstances... I don't know. That's not something I'd rather pry into.

I'm glad he's looking past it, either way. And good on them both. We now have two enamored Hawkes here.

I have noticed that the Warden, Hawke, and the Inquisitor all seem to have that recurring theme - saving the world, romantic intrigue, foiling nefarious plots...

[She grins, clearly finding all of it exciting.]

I'm still curious about meeting another Warden some day. You two would have much to talk about, I'm sure. Both Hawkes have probably gotten curious about their differences by now, no?

We lead such exciting lives, the lot of us.

[It's a peculiarity to be sure.]

I can't imagine they haven't swapped some stories to see the differences. But yes, another Warden would be interesting to meet. Of course, risks come with such a wish, though.

Risks? Such as?

[It's interesting to hear her take on it, considering the Hawkes seem to be more than alright with one another, but then Riona was definitely cautious after everything with Alistair. That was more than expected.]

Who knows what they'd be like? What decisions they made?

[Riona blames herself for much, but she knows she could have done far worse. And who's to say some Warden out there hadn't done as such?]

Not to mention, a similar choice in partners may make things... awkward.

True, but there's no sense wondering if you don't know the outcome just yet, no? You'd only make yourself worry.

[Although, she does recall Fenris being rather furious at Adawolfe for telling him he killed him. Furthermore, there were Wardens who could have done the same to her, done the same to Alistair or any of the others. That thought was not a comforting one.]

[And that's what she fears, what decisions and version of events they may bring with them.]

I do a good enough of a job on my own, it's true.

You do and that is precisely why I am here - to help you worry less and talk more of what may or may not have happened with Hawke and Fenris. You know, we should corner her and demand she go for drinks with us - we can get all the juicy details after a few pints in her, no?

[Leliana is so devious, how does she ever keep friends???]

Oooooh, yes. I like this idea. Drinks do loosen lips.

[Because they're just as devious as she is, honestly.]

Exactly. Wouldn't that be a fun bit of gossip too? To hear it straight from the horse's mouth would be a bonus.

[Muwahahahaha

Hawke why are you friends with these two losers.]

[I am so sorry Marian]

Yes. Something fun and good to talk about for a change.

What? And Thedas' Mage and Templar conflicts aren't fun?

[That sure was some dry humor there, Leliana.]

Who should be the one to extend the invitation? You or me?

Hmmm... how close are you with her? It should come from whoever she friendliest with, I should think.

Not so close but we do have a decent rapport. I would think the honor of being invited for drinks by the Hero and Queen of Ferelden would be enough, no?

[She's teasing. Anything to poke fun at both of her favorites, really.]

[She rolls her eyes.]

It's not like she knows I'm queen. [Probably. Maybe.] But if you insist I can invite her. Though I may wait a few days. I... may have let it slip that I know now. [She snickers wickedly.] Might not be too trusting of such an invitation right now.

Oh, you are terrible at keeping a secret.

[So much snickering.]

It's alright. Though, now she might suspect ulterior motives.

I did pretty well! Lately I've kept it less of a secret, but really, how many people actually know that aren't from our version of Thedas? Hm?

[Answer: probably more than Riona realizes, considering that even Tyrion managed to find out.]

She might suspect that regardless. Perhaps I'll give it a week or so. She may have more to reveal by then anyway.

True. That secret is still kept. I have told no one myself.

[Because who else can you trust with secrets, if not your best friend?]

Perhaps... I can arrange something. Let me see what I can do, once we've given her a few days. We will convince her yet.

[Leliana this is girls going out for drinks not plotting an assassination.]

All right. Good luck, Leli.

[~~GOD~~MAKERSPEED, GOOD FRIEND.]
