NOTES: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Also threadjacking is rad, banter and bicker freely.

The worst country in Thedas—other than Tevinter—

[ A given. ]

—it is Orlais, right? We can all agree to that.

[ Look, he's bored. ]

I believe it unlikely that anyone who would dismiss me on the basis of such fraternization means to take me seriously in the first place, based upon an entirely different series of unmet qualifications. So it hardly matters.

[degenere]

I would take you seriously, but you are making it very impossible to do so.

[heirring]

[She laughs, a great 'Ha!']

Then you will simply have to challenge yourself, de Foncé.

[degenere]

I refuse.

[heirring]

Refuse. Come now. I hardly took you for a person so easily deterred.

[degenere]

I am the very soul and spirit of tenacity but in the face of such willful insistence to continue your relationship with Markham, when you could have better? I cannot entertain the thought for very long. Mostly because it saddens me.

[heirring]

As if it is a matter of one versus the other. I have the capacity to write a great many letters in a variety of directions, Monsieur.

And surely it is to Riftwatch's advantage that relationships be curated even with less likely institutions.

[degenere]

Those are the words of someone who has never truly enjoyed the relationship of a worthy institution. Anything less is a waste of time, mademoiselle.

[heirring]

While your insistence that my prospects are indeed so broad as to genuinely reach all the way to Val Royeaux is flattering in the extreme, I have yet to see much indication of it.

[degenere]

Of course you have seen no indication. Be sure to thank Brown for this in your next piece of correspondence.

[heirring]

Perhaps I will. I have the sense he would find it amusing.

[degenere]

[Very seriously:]

I hope he dies of amusement. And then they turn him into manure. This conversation is over.

[heirring]

And with it having been such a pleasant one. How tragic.
