grow it or cultivate it or something i need a lot of it a constant source
also uh
lyrium need that too but it isnt something you can grow
if atroma could be so nice to give me some?? pretty please
not actually sure if you can ask them for stuff or how to
balls

im at the malum if anyone wants me


[ Indeed if anyone does go looking for Marian Hawke or happens to wander into the Malum in the next few hours they will find the Champion of Kirkwall there, tucked away in the most isolated corner she can manage nursing a drink. It might be her fifth at this point, not that it matters she has an amazing tolerance. She is leaning on the table lazily, idly thumbing through her communicator as her mabari, fondly named Dog, sits protectively by her feet.

She looks miserable, or bored, it's a little tough to tell. But what a better time to bother her, right? ]

[ Sure is buddy, how you doing? Feeling sober? ]

nothing is wrong with me why would there be something wrong with me

[ ABORT ABORT. ]

noooo
not really??
elfroot is a plant used in healing potions
and lyrium is
uh
its complicated but its kinda like crystallized magic i guess

[moseyin]

We've got stuff like that back home, call it materia

Dunno about that plant though. There's restorative potions but I dunno what's in them. probably tons of chemicals that're super bad for you

text

[ofkirkwall]

can you make it into potions?

can anything that lets you heal gash wounds instantly be honestly good for you
i mean if it isnt made by magic it is probably really bad

text

[moseyin]

Uhhhh no Im pretty sure breaking materia makes like explosions and stuff. or nothing, either explosions or nothing

text

[ofkirkwall]

that sounds fun :D

[ Hawke no. ]

text

[moseyin]

Maybe but it'd be too expensive. for what you spend on one piece of materia you could make 30 bombs out of other junk that do the same thing

text

[ofkirkwall]

yeah but the bombs explosion wouldnt be nearly as pretty
right????

[ Tell her she is right Cloud, do it. ]

text

[moseyin]

I'm not gonna give you a definitive answer on that because you sound way too interested in the idea

text

[ofkirkwall]

please
i am a responsible adult who certainly wouldnt try to make materia bombs
just to see if they explode into sparkles

text

[moseyin]

I bet you're drooling on your comm right now

I'm DEFINITELY not telling you, and also I'm never telling you if I ever get any materia here. Is that what you use that lyrium stuff for, bombs??

text

[ofkirkwall]

no way
do you know how hard drool is to clean off this thing?
its hard!! i know!! dog has tried to eat it before!!

when did you become such a grump
you were funner when you were drunk cloud
a lot funner

and no i dont make it into bombs though it can explode
its for potions lyrium potions
also great to mix with ale

[moseyin]

it IS drugs then! trying to pull a fast one on me

just use some other crap laying around i'm sure someone around here has something. go ask crowley, he seems the skeevy type

text

[ofkirkwall]

no i mean yes but
im not trying to pull a fast one on anyone
i have very particular needs
it cant just be ANYTHING you know wont have the same kick
and i cant make lyrium potions out of just anything

text

[moseyin]

oh my god you are the WORST kind of addict, the picky type

diversify

text

[ofkirkwall]

no >:(

text

[moseyin]

LAZY.

enjoy detoxing then that'll be fun

if you need somebody to hold you down so you don't run off and try to strangle someone in a back alley for cash then maybe I'll make myself available

text

[ofkirkwall]

NOT LAZY I NEED LYRIUM FOR MORE THAN JUST DRINKS ASSHAT

sweet offer but the way my life is going right now i am pretty sure ive made enough money to last me six months
its all right out of some sort of drama novel
people are probably getting a kick out of it
and my eventually downward spiral

you should come drinking with me cloud
i could use the company
even the grumpy ones

text

[moseyin]

why'd you have to make this real

are you depressed? I'm not emotional crutch material, I'm warning you.
do i even know your first name

text

[ofkirkwall]

because i felt like it

depressed? no more bored
ive been drinking for over an hour now
and as much as i love my dog he isnt the greatest conversationalist
but he is a very good listener

sure you do its hawke
thats what everyone calls me
only special friends get to know my first name ;)

text

[moseyin]

you sound like a serial killer

where are we drinking and are you buying

text

[ofkirkwall]

im much more classy than a serial killer

malum and yes

text >> action

[moseyin]

You better wine and dine me proper before you chop my body up then, i mean it

[And off he goes to Malum! Get some of that fancy liquor Crowley paid him to carry that one time]

text >> action

[ofkirkwall]

please give me more credit
ill show you such an absolutely wonderful time that youll die with a smile on your face ;)

[ She isn't difficult to find being off to a side with a large mabari sitting by her feet. She seems to brighten when she spots him, arm out waving dramatically. ]

[moseyin]

[hawke, what is that

To both that wave and that monster dog] I didn't realize this was a double date, I would've borrowed someone's cat.

[ofkirkwall]

[ Her darling baby boy.

Dog seems to lift his head at Cloud's approach, stubbed tail wagging slightly at a seemingly friendly face. It makes Hawke grin something genuine that almost makes her cheeks hurt. ]

Bad idea, he wants to play with them but doesn't remember how big and strong he is. [ She reaches down and scratches Dog's head. ] I wouldn't want my poor boy to get all scratched up.

Dog, meet Cloud. Cloud, meet Dog. He's a mabari war hound. Every good Ferelden has one, we're not called dog lords for nothing.
