[For being shoved into a horror game, this girl seems in remarkably high spirits.] 

You know, it's really not so bad. Everyone is so nice, too. 

And there are such stories to tell! Just think of what Varric could come up with if he met Serah Grimlock the enchanted amor or if he knew about those chatter runes. [Cellphones, Merrill.] His stories would be the best in all of Thedas, not that they aren't already.

Anyway, Mun, are you sure this place is going to be scary? I just can't believe it. [Nevermind the whole kidnapped, stuck in a creepy rundown city thing...]

Yay, it's a Merrill!

[windyellow]

What sort of place did your mun send you? My mun is excited to see you.

[lyriumscribed]

Always such the optimist, witch.

[ Hard to disagree that Varric knows how to tell his tales, though. ]

:D

[arulinholm]

It's a city, but I think it's been abandoned. I suppose it's a bit ghastly when you think about it but it really isn't so bad! I like the people I've met so far.

Oh, and tell your mun I said hello!

[arulinholm]

Someone has to be. Imagine if I went in with an attitude like yours! People would be convinced we're doomed within five minutes!

This is mainly here to compliment you on the flawless Merrill voice. =D

[ailuruslucidity]

I am given to understand that, in many of these games, they appear quite welcoming at first. Then it proceeds to get worse over time, in some fashion. I have yet to experience this first hand, but I have seen a great deal of anecdotal evidence to this effect.

Though I must admit I am curious as to why mention of Serah Grimlock is making my mundane laugh. His only explanation is that he would pay money to see you speaking to a Dinobot? Are there places that require such payment?

[lyriumscribed]

I look at things as they are.

A tiger would still eat you, no matter the attitude.

[arulinholm]

You don't know that, not for certain.

Besides, what if it's not a tiger at all but a housecat that looks like one? Not everything is about appearances, Fenris.

eee your merrill is flawless.

[lyriumscribed]

[ A frown. ]

And now it makes sense. Did you think that demon you summoned was a housecat then? A harmless thing?

askhdk thanks!! so is your fenris, I can hear him in my head ;u;

[arulinholm]

No. A demon is a demon. They can be harmless if you know what you're doing, and I do. 

[She says that crisply, with a tinge of annoyance, but reverts back to her usual tone as she goes on:]

It's more like... Anders. I thought he was a housecat when I first met him but it turns out he's really a tiger.

An angry, glowing tiger. 

oh my thanks!! Fjgufjdf :'D

[lyriumscribed]

Do you? [ The harsh mockery in his tone, the raised brow, can only imply he disagrees. ] A demon by its very nature cannot be harmless.[ his lip curls, subtly, threatening a scowl as he crossed his arms across his chest.

There is nothing you can say, Merrill, that will undo the hate he's built over many years. ]

And my point still stands. Mages are not to be trusted. He is full on his way to becoming an abomination. So no, it may not always be about appearances, witch, but the world does not forgive foolish optimism.

[Merrill frowns. She's heard this, all of this, countless times already -- not just from Fenris, either. 

But having heard such ignorance before doesn't make it any less vexing now.] 

I don't understand how you can really believe that all mages are the same

[That argument won't get her anywhere... She sighs. Talking to Fenris is very much like talking to a post.]

Hawke has your respect, and I have Hawke's trust. Isn't that enough? We don't have to agree on things. 

Thank you!!

[arulinholm]

Oh no, I really hope that's not how this turns out! Haven has so many lovely people; they don't deserve bad things. But I suppose it wouldn't be much of a game if nothing happened, would it? It's a shame it can't be one of a different kind. One with prizes. 

As for Serah Grimlock, I think he'd make anyone laugh. He's a very strange ... thing. He might even know what a Dinobot is. I don't ... but I'd talk to one for free if I ever met one.
