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? ]

they tend to be everywhere back home
sorta like a weed but one that people actually like to see
i doubt they are difficult to grow

who knows! lyrium can cause problems so they might just think itd be funny
maybe itll explode or something else comically hilarious

[torsion]

Got one of those (and some variations) where I'm from. Maybe the trick is to not try to grow it and it'll grow like a weed?

I'm sure it can't hurt to talk about the potential publicly, either! ;)

[ofkirkwall]

maybe! if i just plant some of the roots maybe itll just grow
take over the garden with its elfrooty goodness and make people mad
haha that might be funny

oh yes it wouldnt at all harm us in any way to talk about the potential of explosions
or people hurting themselves in hilarious ways that would do wonders for ratings

sorry about the wait! been sleeping off the flu!

[torsion]

Okay, that would be pretty funny. At least assuming you didn't get caught. Probably be some pretty pissed off people...

Extremely entertaining ways that would run the gamut of emotions? Why, you don't say!

all good!!!

[ofkirkwall]

i could talk my way out of a dungeon without blinking im sure id be fine :)

indeed my good lady indeed!
action drama suspense everything a good show needs
all it would take is atroma granting one little request

[torsion]

I like your confidence... probably your skills, too, if that's true!

Why, that sounds wonderful and like a show I would tune into every time it plays! Surely a wise producer would grant such a small and serviceable request so this is possible.

(Maybe a little too thick, but it's not untrue.)

[ofkirkwall]

you should be im very talented
got magic fingers and a silver tongue
and rumored to have once fought a dragon with nothing but a spoon

perhaps if atroma is kind they shall grant us this opportunity
because i am nothing but a good fleeter who does her best every day
and would happily get chewed on again for the ratings of course ;)




do you think its working
i hope its working
im a little desperate here

[torsion]

When you put it that way, I can see why you're on an entertainment-based reality show.

Can't say I've got quite the same tales, but I can break a neck with my thighs. Wait, should I save that for when I'm trying to get something from them? Guess it's out of the bag now. Hopefully the Atroma won't take it as invitation to make me prove I can.

A true tragedy if they don't grant such a small request. :(

(I don't know, how do they usually make themselves known?)

[ofkirkwall]

wait you can what
break a neck with your thighs
i wont lie i wouldnt be against them giving you the opportunity to prove it
itd be quite the show ;)

no idea
probably not
the assholes

[torsion]

Whether it starts with a triangle choke, a hurricanrana, or just a flip onto the shoulders I'm in it to win it and what I typically fight against, we kill.

Probably not the kind of show people would hope for, though.

Least they could do is reassure that we're not wasting our time. Time wasting makes for bad TV.

[ofkirkwall]

oh i think i like you
who knows some people get enjoyment in the whole fight to the death things
bet theyd pay for it too

honestly
but they wont gotta keep up the mysterious and aloof persona
