Hello? Guys? This isn't funny, my birthday isn't for another two months. [ A sigh and she starts pacing, loudly. ]

Fenris? Isabela? [ Long pause. ] ...Anders?

Can someone tell me why I can't smell Lowtown burning anymore and when exactly did magic books become a thing? They would have been incredibly helpful six years ago.

You know Isabela.

[This is important info she's latching onto here, ma'am]

You have only my deepest sympathies.

[ofkirkwall]

[ This just... makes her laugh, man Alleyne you have no idea how much she needs to laugh. Thank you. ]

[tomatoandbasil]

Something particularly funny about this, or is she just as much of a living hell for you too?

[ofkirkwall]

She's not-- [ Pfft, ahem. Stop laughing Hawke. ] She's not that bad.

[tomatoandbasil]

Either you've more patience than I for her ilk or she just has no interest in you then.

[Man if Alleyne laughed she would laugh at that last part. That'd be the day! Isabela, not attracted? A shock.]

[ofkirkwall]

She's my friend. [ She doesn't comment on the attracted thing, because she knows better. ]

[tomatoandbasil]

I suppose I would consider her...an acquaintance myself. Though you mentioned Fenris as well? We've fought side by side several times now.

[ofkirkwall]

He's a friend too. You could say I'm the leader of that merry band of misfits, though why they still follow me is a mystery not even the greatest minds could figure out.

[tomatoandbasil]

Well, any friend of theirs is an ally of mine, especially now that this castle's gone and roped us together.

I'm Alleyne. Been here about seven months.

[ofkirkwall]

Hawke, you may have heard of me.

[tomatoandbasil]

I believe your name's come up once or twice. Good to finally meet the woman in charge. I have to commend your patience to put up with such a ragtag group, regardless of skill.

[ofkirkwall]

I tend to attract the colorful ones, it's a terrible curse.

[tomatoandbasil]

What skills do you bring to the party? I have to say, even Isabela is good in a pinch.

[ofkirkwall]

Among other things. [ HEH HEH. ] I shout witty one lines from across the battle field and hope for the best.

[tomatoandbasil]

[Eeeeew]

If by that you mean her inability to accept I won't sleep with her as a skill. Though the rest is spoken like a true leader.

[ofkirkwall]

Don't feel special, she's like that with most of the people she takes a fancy too. [ Chuckles. ] I've told them they picked the wrong exceedingly good looking Champion to follow around but they just won't have it.
