What's a reasonable amount of time to stay angry with someone?

[ There is a fairly obvious difference between Alistair's I have a serious question voice and I am trying to cause trouble voice, for those who know him, but in this case his tone falls somewhere between the two. ]

Obviously it depends on what they've done to make you angry, so let's talk about the full range. How long can I stay angry with someone for borrowing my sword without permission before I'm unreasonable?

Or what if they left everyone I cared about to die?

Just for discussion's sake.

Until the motherfucking end of time, for both.

...or just the latter one, I guess.

I knew I liked you.

[gatheringstorm]

People who fuck you over don't get a say in how you react to them. If you want to hold a grudge forever, it's your damn right.

[byblow]

I'm more worried about people who haven't—done anything to me [ fuck is a hard word for even a bitter, long-former Chantry boy ] trying to tell me I'm being ridiculous, to be honest.

[gatheringstorm]

Well, screw them. They don't get to dictate how you feel, either.

Need a pint? Angry drinking might not solve anything, but I doubt it'd hurt, either.

[byblow]

I...

[ He can feel Teren's future glare already, that's what. ]

... have a fairly embarrassing history of taking the angry drinking thing too far. How about angry rock skipping?

[gatheringstorm]

Taking it too far is half the fun, you know. But if you insist, cathartic rock-skipping it is.

[byblow]

Mmmm, I took it too far every day for nearly a year.

I can meet you at the docks.

[gatheringstorm]

I'll be there, starting a rock collection. You'd better get over here before I make people nervous.
