Fifteenth Blight - video (closed)

[bryces_pup]

Who: Riona, the Blue Fish, and the DA cast (including Alistair as well, oops)
Broadcast: Yep
Action: On Blue Fish, if desired!
When: Earlier today, the 30th!



[Riona meant to broadcast this to just her crew and the other Thedosians, excepting one certain Alistair. However, she flubbed it. Unbeknownst to her, mind, so she carries on like she succeeded as the broadcast starts and she smiles at the camera.]

Since I know my darling husband isn't going to say anything: today is his birthday. Or, thereabouts. Please do wish him a happy one, if you see him. He didn't get it enough in his life and I'm bound and determined to make up for it. That said, as much as I'd love to throw him a party and really heap on the attention, I know it would be more than he'd like. So no, no party I'm afraid. I wonder if I can get him a nice cake... Anyway, thank you everyone.

[It's a good thing that he is very much in love with her. Otherwise, that would be a deal breaker.]

Yes, well, there was the added benefit that once she burned it, that she wasn't able to make me do foolish things anymore. I don't need her help for that, you know.

[bryces_pup]

No one does. But you know Morrigan wouldn't have made you do anything - or made anything happen - that was too serious. If nothing else, she knew I would have come down on her something fierce if she had. [Riona usually kept herself out of Morrigan and Alistair's spats (save for one exception), but that would have absolutely spurred her intervention, and it wouldn't have been pretty.]

[reluctantbastard]

I'm not so certain. You are fierce, my love, but I suppose once you call her a sneaky witch thief, you're branded forever as a stupid fool.

[bryces_pup]

Well, it was an insult and you know how she is. But Morrigan and I had an... understanding. She toed the line often, but she didn't go too far, save the one time.

[And boy did Ri let her have it then.]

[reluctantbastard]

Right, and yet....

[He doesn't want to go there. Not even in jest. That's a dark, scary place and he doesn't want to talk about it.

Ever.

E V E R.]

Well, she's always sort of respected you anyway, so I suppose it makes sense that she wouldn't want to anger you. Me, not so much, but that's fine.

[He thinks she's a super bitch and is glad that she disappeared after the Archdemon's death. Less he has to explain to everyone else, honestly.]

[bryces_pup]

[Yes, let's not go there. It's not one of Riona's better moments, admittedly.]

I know. She's not always the kindest person. Though Leliana told me that the years have softened her somewhat. Her edges aren't so rough anymore. [Motherhood could do that to a person.]

[reluctantbastard]

[The things he does for love and being able to live beyond the Blight.]

Yes, well, if her mother is any sort of indication, softer doesn't always mean better. I'll take my chances with the Bannorn.

Now, back to better subjects.... Should I be wary of mountains of gifts?

[bryces_pup]

[Oh hush. He was never in any danger from her wrath.]

By all appearances, she seemed intent on doing the exact opposite of what Flemeth did in raising her. [Or so Leliana said anyway. Riona's inclined to believe her.]

Maaaaaaaybe. You'll have to just wait and see, won't you?
