NOTES:

Hey my dudes and duddettes, super important question.

What's the weirdest animal here that I can touch that won't like immediately try to kill me and does that include this zombie horse I just found in the stable.

Cus I wanna pet him.

Like super bad.

But I'm open to non-zombie horse petting options too, I guess.

Comments

[esquive]

It's unpleasant to touch.

[Just his EXPERT OPINION, no offense.]

[windyvoice]

See like... He looks like he'd be unpleasant to touch, but that doesn't change anything.

I wanna touch.

[esquive]

It's not a he. It is a spirit possessed corpse.

[windyvoice]

Hey, ghosts have feelings too, dude. That's why hauntings happen.

[ Sage wisdom. ]

[esquive]

So you would be better served were you to avoid putting your hand in one.

[windyvoice]

Ew, I wouldn't be putting my hand in him, I'd be petting. That's totally different.

[esquive]

[Skeptical noise.]

[windyvoice]

Dude, don't be rude to Jimothy.

[wythersake]

Will you define 'weird'?

[windyvoice]

Anything that isn't a dog or cat or fairy.... Which I don't think you guys have anyway.

[wythersake]

A wisp, sprite, yes? Ask Kostos after it.

[ because that sounds funny ]

i'm gonna fucking die

[windyvoice]

Those are like the little lights, yeah? Fairies are way different. They're like... rude butterflies with people faces.

[wythersake]

All the better — I hardly imagine he's taught them manners.

[windyvoice]

Wait, does he like keep them? Like tiny little puffballs?

[wythersake]

Never for very long.

[windyvoice]

Bummer, that sounds wicked cute. Hey, if there's sprites and things, does that mean this place is haunted?

[exequy]

[ His tone is ffs. ]

They are not puffballs.

[windyvoice]

What are they then?

[hemitheoi]

They aren't here, but there is a giant bear I will hunt one day. You can pet it's coat after I have slain it.

[windyvoice]

Whoah. Scary, but also cool, I think.

How giant is a giant bear?

[hemitheoi]

As tall as least two Qunari standing on one another's shoulders, so I am told. With a hide the colour of iron. Thick too, you must strike deep to kill them.

[windyvoice]

[ She doesn't know how tall that is, but like it sounds tall. More importantly: ]

Dude! Are you on a quest? That totally sounds like a quest beast.

[hemitheoi]

What? What do I sound like, one of those pompous Orlesian pricks? No I'm not on a quest, I'm a Sten, who is meant to fight.

[windyvoice]

That still sounds pretty quest-y, but go off.

What's a Sten?

[hemitheoi]

A soldier, to your words. But it would also be what you call a 'name'. I am Qunari, so those are one and both the same, for us.
