Unimpressed with mun's plans

[magerights]

Can't you think of anything better to do than making my life more difficult than it already is? It's bad enough that I have to see someone I care for get hurt because of me again, but now you're trying to come up with plans that will make things worse in the future?

Isn't it enough for you to know that there's a chance that the blighted Knight-Commander will be showing up here as well? I remember how badly it went when the Knight-Captain arrived, and now with Justice gone... everything is already difficult enough without you needing to add more fuel to the fire.



...and no, I don't think that trying to find Sebastian is going to help much either. Are you actively trying to recruit people to hate me now? Because if that's the long and short of it, I'd much rather you simply returned me to Kirkwall. Then I'll have a whole blighted city willing to do the job for you.

Then instead of complaining about the injustice done, why not strive to act against it?

[ When was the last time Anders remembered speaking to a masked man? Been some time, hasn't it? Luckily, the person under this mask isn't a charismatic narcissist with a mean streak. ]

[magerights]

Act against what, exactly? Nebulous plans which I'm not entirely aware of? How would you suggest doing that?

[windfang]

Perhaps when the time comes, you could possibly make peace with those you deem as your foes.

[magerights]

That isn't going to happen. For starters, some of them would sooner kill me than even consider peace, and I'd likely do the same in return.

[windfang]

[ He certainly knows that feeling, especially since Yasha's quite sure that Deus would rather have kill him now along with Asura. It seems like the mage is in a very difficult spot. ]

A shame that is but if diplomacy fails, then you know what you must do.

[ "Kill them before they kill you" logic for the win. ]

[magerights]

Unfortunately even if I could manage it, I doubt it would help much.

[ioudas]

Dear god, just shut up.

[magerights]

...do you go out of your way to find me when I'm upset just so that you can tell me to shut up? It isn't like this has anything to do with you. I'm hardly up here telling everyone about how you were telling me I should break up with the man I love just because you don't like me much.

[Because that was totally the reason why, yes.]

[ioudas]

I am here as an Apostle from God, not to rid the world of the demons that run on human souls, but rather to make you shut up.

[magerights]

Right, yes, because who actually needs freedom to be able to say what they believe anyway? I'm sure you'd much rather prefer I break things off with Garrett and go back to being locked away in the Circle like a good little mage.

[battlemaged]

Cranky allies are better than none at all, Anders.

[Just sayin'.]

[magerights]

I very much doubt that Meredith is going to be my ally, don't you?

[battlemaged]

I was referring to Sebastian, Anders. Take your indignance out of your ears, hm?

[magerights]

Yes because that will certainly work out so much better. He'll turn up and either try to kill me right away, or Fenris will tell him what happened and where I am and then he'll try to kill me. You're absolutely right, Hawke, that's sounds much nicer!

[battlemaged]

[Why does he even bother with you? NO ONE KNOWS.]

Just...shut up, Anders.

[magerights]

Are you forgetting that you decided to talk to me this time? Maker, I'm glad the Garrett I know is nothing like you. He's actually a caring, kind, and genuinely good man.

[battlemaged]

Then my sympathies go out to that one because he's been blessed with divine patience.

[magerights]

Or maybe he's just a good person, did you consider that?

[battlemaged]

Are you saying I'm not?

[Step carefully, Anders.]

[magerights]

Considering how you said yourself that you don't want to be involved in the problems back in Thedas... yes.

[Because what is being careful??]

[battlemaged]

If I have to deal with your way of handling problems, Anders, I think it's best for everyone if I stay out of it.

[You really want to start pointing fingers, mage? BRING IT.]

[magerights]

I gave you the chance to end things so you wouldn't have to 'deal with' me ever again. I'm surprised you didn't take it, if you hate me so much.

[battlemaged]

That's the coward's way out, Anders. There was no way in all the hells I was going to give it to you, and leave the rest of the world to deal with your idiotic impatience.

And for the record, you're the only one who believes that I hate you.

[magerights]

Then maybe that says something about your attitude. But fine, if you don't hate me, then what? You certainly don't seem to like me. I can barely open my mouth around you without you telling me to shut up it seems.

[battlemaged]

I'm not sure if you recall, Anders, but I bloody well don't work for you. I seem to remember it being the other way around, yes? And this attitude you seem to loathe so much stems from your bloody insistence on behaving like a damned stubborn genlock!!

Now...STOP IT!!

[Congrats, Anders, you've made him yell. And Hawke used to be so even-temptered...]

[magerights]

No.

[He folds his arms, unperturbed by the outburst, since it's really only proving him right as far as he's concerned.]

I don't know if you recall, Hawke, but you never hired me. I'm not your follower or your servant or anything of the sort, and I don't appreciate you treating me as though any and everything I do or say is inherently wrong, all while claiming that I bring it entirely on myself.

You want to know why I think the Garrett I know is a good person while you aren't? He at least doesn't make me feel like less of a person. We don't always agree, and Maker knows we've had our own share of problems, but he listens to what I have to say without yelling at me to shut up as though that's the answer to everything. That alone makes him worth ten of you and a far greater person than I thought I would ever deserve.

Now if you don't mind, I'd rather not speak with you any more.
