[ he should be expecting this, frankly, but he does blink in surprise. ]
It's Anders, right? [ he would say "i recognize you, too" but considering the living knew the dead could see them that feels anticlimatic. ] I'm still getting used to the idea people know already.
Knew of. I think that's different than actually knowing each other. [ that is being pedantic but that's fine. ] But yeah, I've been watching. I had to keep an eye on things over here to make sure things weren't going too badly. Helped me with figuring out our transportation lines, too.
You—Shadowheart. [ never mind, he kind of gets it. there's a pause though and he looks at his hands. i suppose i should mention one of them looks robotic. ]
... you think you can? It's been weird experiencing pain like that again.
[ yeah! the robotic hand gets a curious glance, but he isn't that weirded out by a prosthetic, they're not uncommon in dragon age if a little lower tech. ]
I once reattached two of Fenris's nearly severed fingers, sealed a wound three inches deep in Merrill's side and kept Hawke from bleeding out from a slashed neck all on the same day of mana, I can handle some aches and pains.
[ honestly that's helpful. anyway he raises both eyebrows at the idea of reattaching fingers until he kind of goes "huh" like yes, alright, that makes perfect sense. ]
I do recall hearing you're like a doctor. Magic's new though. [ but okay. balances the laptop and holds out both handsies. the right arm up to his shoulder is robotic in appearance, creeping up out of his collar and over part of the side of his neck. the left hand is completely normal though. ]
In the cloud, the whole point is living without the physical restrictions. So I guess I forgot about limits while being here.
[ he'll take his hands and then start glowin'. well. just his eyes and his hands, there's a greenish-blue, kind of otherworldly aura that starts flowing out.
it isn't a particularly intense heal, so he can still speak - the feeling will be like ... lifeforce, flowing through veins. it feels good, if unsettling at first, like some living being is finding all the little places in his body that are in pain and gently rearranging them. ]
Pain has its purposes. Haven't you ever heard the old joke? Patient goes to the doctor, and tells him, "It hurts when I do this." The doctor says "Then stop doing that."
[ oh, that helps. he's trying not to let his own eyes glow as he absorbs said-lifeforce. ]
If only it were that easy, Doc, but you see, some crazy girl infiltrated nine months ago and made a mess of my network. [ a joke himself. ] I'm used to working through my problems, but I can't say I mind the break for a bit.
