Who: Cassandra Pentaghast & YOU!!
Broadcast: Fleet-wide
Action: SS Marsiva
When: week of April 12-18

[When Cassandra wakes, she goes from sound asleep to alert in just a matter of a couple of seconds. She's out of bed immediately with a reflexive reach for weapons that aren't there. Naturally, this merits a frustrated growl, but no matter. She doesn't need a sword or shield to do some damage if she must to get out of...wherever this place is.]

[She scans the room with a little more scrutiny with a scowl before she notices the communicator and picks it up. Enjoy your new view of the ceiling, network, while she looks the device over in her hands because she doesn't understand why she has some vague sense of familiarity with it without ever having seen it before in her life. It's at least something to take her mind off the fact she has absolutely no idea how she got here in the first place.]

What is this?

[Answer her before books start getting stabbed, you guys.]

She's... spoken to him, about it. So he's aware.

[That has to do some good.]

[Still deserving of a teeny growl of frustration though.]

Where is he?

I don't advise taking action just yet, Cassandra. [THE INQUISITOR WOULD BE SO MAD...]

I just want to know where he is.

[For now. Maybe.]

Is that all? [JUST TO BE SURE because he knows if Anders ends up mauled, everyone is going to look at the ex-templar first...]

You have my word.

[SHE WOULDN'T MAUL HIM, CULLEN.]

[...unless he started some shit. then c'mon.]

[That's all he needs.]

I believe he's on the SS Golden.

If you hear of anything, Cullen, I want to know immediately.

Of course. I've not been ignoring him.

You are not the one I have concerns about.

You should take up your concerns with the Inquisitor. Perhaps she can soothe some of them. [lol likely story but]

If she will not listen to you, what chance do you really believe there is that she will listen to me?

I don't believe I have any more sway than you do.

[Cassandra is scarier.]

Ugh, you cannot possibly believe that right now. I hardly know her. Whatever relationship she had with me is purely one-sided.

[Which is uncomfortable as hell because there are definitely things about Cassandra that Jove probably knows that Cassandra would rather a near-stranger not know.]

I find it better to just go along with things such as that. The Inquisitor is the Inquisitor. I can assure you that she's a good, smart, kind woman. You trusted her.

[Cassandra sighs softly.]

I do not doubt these things are true. [Because she trusts your opinion, bro. She knows you wouldn't lead her astray on anything important.] But trust is something that must be earned. Even by the Inquisitor.

I cannot simply pretend as though it is otherwise.

It will take time. She's had to reacquaint herself with me, as you will with her. [JUST NOT IN THAT WAY HE HOPES.]

It's a strange mess we've got pulled into.

[YOU NEVER KNOW, CULLEN. GUESS YOU BETTER STEP UP YOUR GAME, HUH?]

[Cassandra smiles, slightly as always.]

And it likely will not be the last. We will see it to the end, Cullen.

I wouldn't dream of it being otherwise.

[what is a vacation]

[She was both hoping and expecting he would say as much.]

I will speak with you another time.
