IC Catch-all Inbox for Riona at [community profile] driftfleet. Be sure to mention the method in your subject line. A time frame/reference would be swell, too.

[He is getting irritated, because the thought of her wanting him gone hurts. And considering how his life has been before her, he doesn't want to go back to that. Not for a few days, not for a few hours. They don't have to do everything together again. He's fine with reasonable space, but he not going to spend any nights away from her more than he absolutely must.]

I've always had options, Riona. And they've led me to you, so I'm fine with that.

[And considering the way that she reacted when he found her here, he's not exactly keen on leaving her.]

I've told you before, but I love you. You'll have to do something a lot worse than just be twelve years older than me to make me uncomfortable.

[Like stop loving him, which is something he's terrified will happen one day. He doesn't have the best track record with people, after all.]

[The moment that she pulls in for a hug, he closes his eyes and breathes deeply. Good. Good. Good. She's not...

She's still his.]


I would be lying if I said that I wasn't curious about the future, but... I'm more curious about this place. I heard some of it from Rowan and that Fenris but I'd rather hear about it from you.

[He manages a smile.]

Besides, it would be a waste to ignore this cake your friend has so nicely given us.

[He could literally spend hours holding and kissing her, but he does get that spending time with people that are their friends and crewmates and generally not each other is good.]

How did you get used to all of this strangeness? I don't even know what half of the things in here are for.

[Not...that he spent a lot of time in the kitchens of any of the buildings he lived in. Or did much but roasting certain items over an open fire in camp.]

[Sex cake or not, Alistair's not really all that interested in it. As it is, he drops a bite on the floor for the mabari, bribing the dog so he'll stop trying to gnaw on his socks. Kiter please.]

Then, I suppose I'll just have to stumble my way through it. Nothing new there, right? At least now there are no scribes and pages to chronicle my every move and mistake.

[BENEFITS!]

So, tell me what there is to do here on these strange ships when we aren't fighting people that want to eat us or saving villagers?

[What? He's gotta get the dog to like him again. And cake is a small sacrifice. Alistair will just have to make sure that Kiter gets to the gardens a bit more and runs some of the extra sugar off. It'll be okay.

Maybe.

He hopes.]


I know this will sound strange, but I'd been okay with the chaos on the last world. Sitting for weeks in meetings and taking petitions isn't at all what I wanted to do. No wonder Cailan...

[He doesn't finish that sentence. He never wanted his half-brother to die. And it had angered him the way that Loghain had left Cailan there in Ostagar.]

Although, honestly, I've not had time to just sit back and read just for the sake of reading in years.

[There is not enough bribery when it comes to mabari. Especially one that started off by not liking him.]

I'll take boring, thank you. I've had enough excitement with Darkspawn, though something tells me that they never really stay "calm". Everyone here from Thedas seems to have the same grim expression when the future is brought up.

[Alistair's idea of excitement is a few fights and riding around the countryside. He'll pass on the war thing again.

At her comment, he motions to the cake.]


We're going to need a whole lot more of these then.

True enough. Between the Darkspwan, Magisters, and cultists, Thedas is a barrel of fun. And that's not even counting the normal people.

[Like their citizens. But, honestly, he doesn't want to know the full skinny on it all. He's just happy enough to be with her, to see her smile. That's all he's wanted from the moment he's kissed her.

He gives her a smile as she points out the downside to their current treat.]


Yes, well, it's not like this is a great cheese from Redcliffe, but it'll do.
