Maker, I should hope not.

[ It's easy to fall into stride next to Cyril as they leave for the restaurant. Hopefully there will be some place nice to sit outside so they can enjoy the sun. ]

[samahl]

[It's a nice little cafe type situation and there is seating outside which Cyril loves because it means he can still people watch while also giving Dorian attention.

Once they have a table and are looking over options, he chuckles a little.]

The last time I took someone to a meal, it was Cole. That may be a hint that I need to get out more.

[fantachetic]

[ Why sit inside on such a beautiful day? People watching is also one of the perks, particularly the ones who are more animated about their teams of choice. The menu offers quite a few options, certainly more than he's used to, and frankly, everything sounds decent. Dorian raises an eyebrow at Cyril. ]

Then I'm glad to give you more lively company. I can only imagine that it was an interesting meal.

[samahl]

It was...

Rather normal, actually. It was shortly after he made the choice to become more human. He was learning.

[A pause, as he considers that.] You know, he has a lady friend now? It's all rather... interesting. The amount he's grown into his own.

[fantachetic]

Cole has become more human and has a lady friend? My, I never would have guessed.

[samahl]

I know!

[A pause.] Leilani says she encouraged him to remain spirit, so I wonder what his evolution is like for her...

[fantachetic]

I honestly can't say. I'm uncertain one way or the other how my own Inquisitor will handle the situation.

[samahl]

Mm. It's a shame I can't peek into your Thedas and find out. I find I really enjoy discovering the different ways others fulfill the role.

[fantachetic]

I can certainly make an attempt if you have any particular questions.

[samahl]

I'm not sure if my curiosity is worth the risk.

[fantachetic]

What might you be risking, pray tell? You've got quite a bit of time on where I am.

[samahl]

Yes, but what if you didn't return?

[fantachetic]

A risk we all face.

[samahl]

True.

[But that doesn't stop this weird grip in his chest at the idea of Dorian disappearing.]

Does the Fleet allow one to make requests like that?

[fantachetic]

Somehow, I don't believe so, but I did make a promise.

[samahl]

It would be disorienting to dip in and out of realities, I'd imagine. One place gives you one set of memories, the other another.... How strange all of that would be.

[fantachetic]

Yes, I can only imagine that combining them would essentially lead to madness, having too much information of the separating time lines. The details would undoubtedly blur depending upon how quickly you could jump from one to the other, which events were drastically different, and whatever physical or mental toll it took to pass each one.

[samahl]

Do you experience anything like that when you dream of the Fade? I know not to that level, but perhaps some kind of blurring of lines?

[fantachetic]

Not quite like that, no. Nothing more than an inkling feeling of some sort or the other. The Fade isn't the deathtrap that everyone insists.

[samahl]

I admit my experiences with it probably weren't the best examples.

But the First of my Clan, Pel... She manages to make magic sound... Dangerous but wonderful.

[fantachetic]

Yes, walking physically into the Fade isn't the experience I would suggest to just anyone.

Magic is wonderful for so many reasons. It is dangerous, but only to the simple fools who do not truly understand it, or think that it is a gift that requires little dedication or a lack of understanding. Or those who think that blood solves everything.

[samahl]

If anything that just seems to make everything worse...

But your dedication to the craft has always been impressive. I was always happy to have you by my side.

[fantachetic]

And you'll find me happy to be there, despite occasionally dreadful locations.
