It would be properly Orlesian of me, would it not?

[ playing against oneself. civil war: chess edition. ]

I suppose that if we speak of stone, I might afford to construct a very, very small castle. Perhaps to house the many homeless ants of Thedas. The Maker smiles upon charity.

[kartereo]

It really would. But it is also predictable, which seems a detriment.

[Besides. Architecture is fun.]

If you wanted to cultivate an air of mystery or strange, you could get us rifters to help with bringing in designs from our homes. [Oooor] Or you could actually build luxury castles for ants. Like bird houses, but even smaller.

[limier]

Predictable, perhaps. But only if your mind is not changeable, no? Are the designs so very different, in your own world?

[ architecture is so fun. it's also never been something within reach. ]

I've a volume on Tevinter structures, if you should rather exchange.

[ it's in tevene. but there are pictures. ]

[kartereo]

They definitely are. The styles here are in our past.

[Waver's not an expert by any means, but he can at least draw.]

You do realize that an exchange mostly means I'm going to be throwing sheets of paper at you and trying to remember technical terms I barely understand, right?

[limier]

Maker, no. Not throwing paper,

[ a small, amused huff. ]

I shall promise to understand them no better than you. Any areas of particular interest, that I might translate ahead of time?

[ because it's a slow fuckin process ]

[kartereo]

Give me two days to find said paper then and have enough for a decent rockslide.

[Stick figures will be included, if only to indicate scale.]

Pick maybe, hm. Two or three things? Translation is less important than just looking at images.

[limier]

Very well. Perhaps something on the Imperial Highway.

In the mean, where should you like your reward delivered? For answering my question — consider it a bribe, if the notion is less tasteless.

[kartereo]

That actually does sound like useful information to have.

[Roads conquer worlds, after all.]

Would you accept an in-person pick up, if we're to see each other anyway?

[limier]

Of course. I am working from quarters at present — if repairs to the libraries have quite finished, that may serve as well. I am most free in the evenings; if this does not suit, perhaps another time might be arranged.

[ she isn't exactly looking for an excuse to beg off of work, it's just. there's like, a lot of it, and it all involves sitting still.

waver's a rifter, that probably means he counts as —

— well, something diplomatic, anyway. the excuse checks out. ]

[kartereo]

A library would be more than suitable. I might uh. Beat you there.

[By which he absolutely means spends an entire day there instead of do literally anything else. That was one of the good things about Thedas - with no classes could teach, Waver could focus on himself and further improving his own skills and knowledge.]
