Iskaulit Mingle - Problems with Psychics

[notzubats]

Who: Anyone on the Iskaulit!
Broadcast: If you'd like?!
Action: Iskaulit!
When: Today, as Sora's augment glitch starts.

[It's your average day on the Iskaulit. Absolutely nothing seems out of place initially, but without any warning- you might find yourself or your friends experiencing some problems. What's up on that?

In other words, it's an Iskaulit mingle with a twist! Come on in everyone! You don't need to interact with Sora to have it effect you, so feel free to start your own threadstarter! Or talk to Sora, that's cool too. ]

[It seems that remains the same - Hawke and Anders, through different universes, always together.]

No, not him, not your Anders. From a parallel universe of Thedas. Like you and Marian. We were friends here and I haven't... I don't want to put any expectations on him.

[wolfehawke]

[Not always the case, especially considering Marian and Fenris, but if Beverly ever pointed out that there was another pair of them together he might take some joy in it.]

Oh, I see. Well, no wonder Atroma nabbed us, if they've already seen how entertaining Anders can be.

[He snorts at his own stupid joke.]

That's kind of you though, to try not to pressure him. They're still the same person though, even if they're different? It's complicated. I mean, Marian and I are obviously different from each other, and your Garrett that you told me about too, but there's similarities there too. I've sort of found the only way to deal with it is to embrace it.

[dancingmd]

Perhaps. [She smiles sadly.] But it will never be the same.

[wolfehawke]

No, and I'm not saying it would be. I'm not explaining this right.

[He runs his fingers through his beard for a moment, thinking.]

I just mean that whatever it was that made the Anders you first met a good friend is still there. A friendship with my Anders would be different, but he's still the same person with those same qualities that formed your friendship in the first place.

[Adalwolfe lets out a small bemused huff.]

I get how hard it is, though. There's someone here in the fleet that in my world? He's... gone. And it's my fault. Befriending him here instead doesn't change what happened, but it gives insight. I guess.

[A pause.]

Well that's not really the same thing, but it's related anyway. You know what I'm trying to say, I hope.

[He doesn't blame her if she doesn't. He barely knows what he's trying to say anymore.]

[dancingmd]

[She smiles gently and the sparks die down, for the most part.]

I do.

[wolfehawke]

Ok good, because my Anders is definitely worth knowing.

[He smiles, maybe a bit soppy, then looks at her hands.]

Looks like you've got it more under control now.

[dancingmd]

[She has to smile at that lovestruck expression on his face as she nods in answer. Focusing on something else besides magic going haywire is helpful.]

You know, you were together then too. The other Hawke and Anders, I mean.

[wolfehawke]

Is that so?

[Adalwolfe blinks at the new information, pleased to hear it even if he's not terribly surprised. Marian's predilection towards the broody elf was a bit more baffling; Adalwolfe just assumes that Anders is The One for any version of himself that's actually a himself and can't quite understand his female counterpart's choice. Hawke and Anders just rolls off the tongue better, to his mind. Or heart. Either one.]

It sounds like your friend Garrett had fine taste, then.

[dancingmd]

[She laughs.]

Very.
