FORM: Crystal
SENDER: Alistair
RECIPIENT: Grey Wardens & Other Shady Fuckers
WHAT: Shopping lists, probably
WHEN: Nowish
WHERE: From Halamshiral to wherever
NOTES: PLEASE THREADJACK, PLEASE GO OFF TOPIC, this is for bonding and chatter for Wardens + anyone else living in or around the Guild House/Camp Shady in the valley. If you're not sure your character would have been included then you're welcome to assume they were! He'd be liberal about who's on the list. He's just not bothering The Whole Inquisition. This is such a long note. I'm sorry, for that and for so much else.

Hello Wardens and... [ assassins and bards and blood mages? ] ...friends. This is Alistair; I'm in Halamshiral; there's a market that hasn't been burned down yet. Does anyone need anything?

If it's expensive, you may have to send me some money. Or tell me how it will stop the Blight. One of the two.

For their definition of nice, I would think!

And yes. His name is Honeysuckle. He also has a very fancy war name, but I like "Honeysuckle" better.

[ There's a thoughtful pause. ]

Would you ever consider marrying me, Merrill?

[justice_is_blond]

Say no, his serenades are the worst.

[byblow]

Quiet, I'm proposing.

[justice_is_blond]

You weren't being quiet when Nate was propositioning.

[byblow]

That was weird. This is cute.

[justice_is_blond]

I take it back. Your chin is weird.

[chainlightning]

Is that something humans consider when marrying?

[justice_is_blond]

If they don't have other things to consider. He's not courted you at all, but he can't even start it with a serenade? That's not a human worth your time.

[chainlightning]

The compliments are nice, at least! I never thought I'd be proposed to. [ even as a joke tbh ]

[justice_is_blond]

[He almost, almost puts his foot in his mouth by asking about young men in her clan before stopping.]

I suppose a lot of Keepers don't marry, do they? Or none that I've heard of.

[chainlightning]

Oh! Well, you are very kind, and also quite handsome.

Maybe if things with Mal don't work out.

[ is she joking? who can say ]

Why?

[aintwejust]

Things with Mal will work out. Just say'n. Don't need no fancy Grey Warden fool keep'n you company.

i need an icon of merrill just BRIGHT RED BLUSHING

[chainlightning]

Oh! [ just C: ]

Well- that's very good, then.

omg so sweet

[aintwejust]

I know I'm head'n out for a li'l while but- I thought maybe you and me, night before? Could spend a little time together.

she is the happy kitten emote rn

[chainlightning]

I'd like that. Quite a bit.

[byblow]

Ser. I may be a fool but I am not fancy.

[aintwejust]

You got that nose what says different, Ser Gingersnap.

[byblow]

Right. Keep on about that and maybe I'll give you a reason to break it for me.

[ ??? Is he threatening Mal or is he threatening himself on Mal's behalf, I don't know, he doesn't know, his mouth just does things sometimes. ]

[sunshinethroughgrey]

Hello, I'm a Grey Warden, but not a fool ... and I just need to know, what color are Merrill's eyes?

[byblow]

Because you're the sweetest and most adorable lady I'd never have to worry about in a fight.

But if you already have a smelly Fereldan suitor I suppose I do the honorable thing and step back.

[chainlightning]

Aw! That's so sweet! Though I can't heal anything, really, so maybe a little worry sometimes.

And he doesn't smell. Not bad, anyway. [ beat ] Aren't you also from Ferelden?

[byblow]

I am. And I'm smelly. Making a woman deal with two of us at once would be cruel.

[arlathvhen]

You wouldn't even get me a ring. And I thought I was special.

[ A very exaggerated, bereaved sigh. SMH Alistair. ]

[byblow]

I haven't gotten anyone a ring in my entire life.
