[ Getting off topic there Alistair. ]

Politics aside, [ Alistair's voice continues, with scolding emphasis aimed at himself, ] who wears skirts better, do you think? Mages or Templars?

Mages, definitely. Heard they're made of nicer stuff, on top of it.

Pretty sure you can't get a templar skirt without a sun stamped on it, anyhow.

[byblow]

What's made of nicer stuff? The skirts or the mages?

[qunari]

Hm. Dunno. Never done it with a templar before.

[byblow]

Me, either. There probably aren't many people who have managed both. There aren't even many people who have managed one.

[qunari]

Eh. Probably more nowadays, without the Circles keeping them all shut in.

[byblow]

There still aren't all that many of either. And Templars are stuffy, and mages are scary.

[qunari]

Hey now. That's stereotyping.

Sometimes the mages are stuffy and the templars are scary.

[byblow]

Maybe we should just call them all, collectively, starey and scuffy.

[qunari]

Nah. Sounds too much like you're talking about the apostates hanging out in the woods. Pretty sure no one wants to be compared to them.

[byblow]

They're passionate, at least. And committed. And... things.

[qunari]

Uh-huh. And prone to demons and blood magic.

[byblow]

You might say the same about Wardens.

[ To be unnecessarily depressing. After a moment of appropriately sad silence, he perks up, with determination. ]

Some people are into that sort of thing, surely. There's nothing someone somewhere isn't into.

[qunari]

Eh, true. But the illusion, the pretending, is generally better than the real thing.

Lot of kinks that goes for, actually.
