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.

She hasn't referenced you at all, oblique or otherwise. Not everything is about you. And if I weren't ever friendly with people who don't like you, the pickings would be incredibly slim.

Thank you, it had slipped my mind that a great many people hate me, how dare I be upset that you're liking empty, worthless commiseration from someone you know damn well is talking about me because you're not an idiot.

You're spreading hatred, deliberately, and that will have ripple effects. He hurt you a great deal and by all means hold a grudge but this? Congratulations, you have indeed likely wounded him. I hope it was worth it, because there will be a price to pay later and it's probably not you who will pay it.

Right, true, being lectured about your personal pain and suffering is so much better than having a drink with someone who's at least capable of pretending to care. And you're definitely the only person in Thedas who could possibly have upset the Vashoth apostate. You're right. I'm wrong. I've been so foolish.

So what do we do now? Talk about your feelings some more? Maybe your relationship, that's definitely my favorite topic—

[ He has a lot of emotions lately, sorry. ]

Or, here's an idea: you could fuck off.

I was wrong.

[A beat.]

You are an idiot. Go fuck yourself.

[The connection goes dead.]
