I know, I know, that's not all there is to it, but that shit's just a mess. If nothing else, he needs to get some space from the whole situation, Hawke included.
I was going to. I've always planned on going back home if I go anywhere, so I hadn't thought about the possibility until you brought it up, you know...?
So I asked him about whether he'd consider going somewhere else, and it turned out I was pretty slow to that conversation. [so no, she never asked.] But I'll honestly take him going anywhere that isn't fucking Kirkwall.
[ anyway it's time to make it to the garden and he'll use the hand that's holding hers to raise it enough to guide her into a little twirl as they walk heho ]
Now I don't know if we're supposed to spend an entire date talking about other people and their problems.

[a little flicker of amusement before she finishes,]
Just didn't have a good time for it before. He literally ran away when I suggested he could come to my room once, you know?
no subject
So forward. But also unsurprising for Jacopo. That type of guy can be so unexpectedly shy.
no subject
So are you gonna answer the original question?
no subject
[ he just laughs ]
Gamaliel got proposed to today, so that’s exciting.
Any others, I think I have to exercise some patience.
no subject
[teasing, but like, come on. gamaliel is great actually.]
I'm guessing from that answer that it went well? [a beat.] Just don't tell me you ever helped Hawke out.
no subject
I told him to speak his mind and have no regrets but it’s not like either of us can decide how Anders responds.
no subject
[a huff of a sigh. hopefully he'll be smart and break it off, though.]
no subject
Is this because you don’t like Hawke in particular or because you think they’re a bad match?
no subject
no subject
Not a good partner?
no subject
[but. well.]
I know, I know, that's not all there is to it, but that shit's just a mess. If nothing else, he needs to get some space from the whole situation, Hawke included.
[even if that's somewhere else.]
no subject
there were so many other circumstances here and yves just sighs a bit ]
... did you invite him to go with you then? Even though he's awfully tied to his cause...
no subject
So I asked him about whether he'd consider going somewhere else, and it turned out I was pretty slow to that conversation. [so no, she never asked.] But I'll honestly take him going anywhere that isn't fucking Kirkwall.
no subject
he just makes a briefly amused noise ]
I'm glad—it sounds like so many people want to take him from his circumstances... He's well-loved.
no subject
[there's more fondness in her emotions there. a degree of care she really hates to show.]
So-- what about you? Planning on going right home if you get the chance?
no subject
[ pretty openly even as they make it to the garden ]
I killed a god and gave my ruined country a chance to survive. That's all they get from me now. I'm going to try to find a life I actually enjoy now.
no subject
Wow. I'll admit, I didn't expect to hear that out of you!
[good for him, though. sometimes you just have to kill god!]
Any thoughts on that part yet?
no subject
[ HE'S SO CONSISTENTTTT honestly he's just loyal like a fucking dog ]
... but well, the god was my friend. [ so it's a little more complicated ] Still, I stand by what I said. I was torn on it for long enough.
no subject
[her tail flicks at him.]
...I get it, though. Friendship's not enough to keep some things from happening.
no subject
[ by a lot ]
no subject
[just a regular guy stressed out by things.]
Then I guess there really wouldn't be any point in offering, even if it weren't for Terra's usual problems.
no subject
... I appreciate the thought nonetheless.
[ anyway it's time to make it to the garden and he'll use the hand that's holding hers to raise it enough to guide her into a little twirl as they walk heho ]
Now I don't know if we're supposed to spend an entire date talking about other people and their problems.
no subject
[she knows what terra is like, okay, it's sure as hell not a vacation spot. great for people who need something to do, terrible for relaxation.
the twirl is a surprise, getting a little blip of ! at it before she just goes with it and spins.]
We're not, huh. So what do you think we should spend it talking about?
no subject
You.
[ they can talk about himself but he cares less ]
And how I can assist you with lighting up these fireworks?
no subject
[her tail swishes, perked happily at the thought.]
If it's me you want to talk about, then... what else do you wanna know?
