Who: Jarvis and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: N/A (unless you have an idea for something!!)
When: Now-ish. Before everything goes horribly later for us all.

Oh, I've finally figured this whole texting thing out; quite an incredible thing, electronic writing! ヽ(´▽`)/

I do miss the smell of fresh paper and the way ink settles on paper as you write, but I cannot deny this is positively enjoyable.

Look at what a young gentleman from the last waystation had shown me. They are all the craze in Japan, I've been told! o(^▽^)o

The idea is using symbols to create faces. (♥o♥)

A means of conveying emotion without relying solely on punctuation or italics or what have you.

I feel so very old already, and I'm not even 40!! ⊙﹏⊙ I suppose I'll be very old myself when these things finally start to evolve.

ヾ(・ω・*)ノ Please tell me, from those in later years, what sort of changes to writing has happened since the 1940's? The progress is so very impressive.

If you will excuse me! I must complete my ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ daily gym visit, but I will reply ASAP.

As soon as possible, that is. :))))

[Jarvis has always figured your hair is white because you stress.

He must be right, obviously.]

She would be certainly tickled at some of the technology around here.

I would never want her in such a place, though; she needs to be safe and sound at home, no matter my feelings.

[The truth is so mucg worse, like...most of Fenris' life. Woop, woop. ]

I can understand that. I have people back home, family to me. As much as I miss them, I would not wish for them to be trapped here. It would make them miserable, and they do not deserve that.

... Indeed.

Though, as lonely as I... sometimes get, when I realize my wife isn't here...

I'm glad to be here, to help Miss Carter. I would hate to leave unless I knew she and the rest of the fleet were safe.

Hm. It is sometimes hard to remember, when you miss them.

[Especially considering Fenris has no plans to go home. He wants out, away. To get as much distance between him and Thedas as possible. He will leave his family behind, but it will be better than facing a world he doesn't even like that much. There's nothing left for him there. ]

Very noble of you. I'm sure she appreciates your loyalty.

[He smiles, perhaps a bit sad.]

I certainly hope I'm up to snuff, at least.

I've got my work cut out for me, with the competition aboard the ship.

I have never seen anything of you to suggest otherwise, my friend.

[High praise, from Fenris. ]

I would hardly call it competition. [You kick ALL their asses, Jarvis. ]

[He chuckles, a bit sheepish. He's quite terrible at compliments about himself as a person. What a dope.]

You're too kind, Mr. Fenris, but I'm afraid it's quite true.

I'm not exactly a superhero... She's in very good hands among them, too. I'm happy to know they're here.

[Even if he thinks maybe, just maybe, he's become a bit... outdated, amongst them.]

What makes a hero is not always weighed in grand gestures or amazing acts of bravery. Heroes can be someone as simple as a shoulder to lean on when you need it most- a listening ear, food on the table.

Do not sell yourself short.

... You are quite right. I should work on my confidence!

Practice what I preach, so to speak. I apologize for sounding so negative.

You do not need to apologise to me. Though I would like to see you have a little more confidence in yourself.

You're entirely right.

What is Mr. Fenris' guide to building confidence?

Mine usually involves violence, so I doubt you would like it all that much.

... Yessss... You're... correct.

I'm not too fond of violence. It usually involves me getting hurt more often than the other way around.

Hm. Probably not the right answer for you, then.
