Constantly. [ they say that almost immediately, and it means they stop to consider what anders is trying to say. ] Oh. Sort of a two sides of the same coin situation.
And of those few things... good or bad? I think disagreeing on small things isn't bad, but a huge discrepancy of morals might be a problem. [ but. ] Did the disconnect start here?
[ the fact that so many of the npcs relate to this man is bad. you know that's bad right. it's extremely ominous to me, personally. why are you all so traumatized. ]
It's ... hard to qualify. [ justice doesn't exactly care for hawke, for one. ] No. If anything it's quieter here. I'm not losing time.
A swinging pendulum then. [ they interpret that as they change on the day, if this other entity (?) inside anders has its own thoughts and feelings on things. ] You said you didn't want to be alone. Do you think you would have felt that way even with so many people around right now?
It isn't exactly being around people. I'm around plenty of people. I always have been-- from the time I was in the Circle tower to being around everyone with Hawke all of the time. It is more idealogical.
[ about not feeling like you're fighting a hopeless battle entirely by yourself. that was the promise that was made, at any rate. they would help each other to achieve things they never could on their own. ]
[ ...give them a moment, they are pulling out two glasses and a bottle of whiskey before pouring a few fingers worth into one of them. they do lift the bottle though to ask if anders would like a drink. ]
Outside noise versus inside noise? It's easier to work through things on your own without everybody's opinions on your shoulders. "You're better than that." "How could you be so reckless?" "What the fuck were you thinking?"
... interesting. [ it's said quietly, like they're considering this but they don't take the glass back. they do nudge it a tiny bit closer just to show the invite is there, but they let anders go at his own pace to not sway him either way. ]
I've heard the last one a lot. Definitely top ten, if not top five.

We ... aren't able to speak like we used to. But our wants are aligned, most of the time. We disagree on very few things.
[ i mean theres a couple of Big Ones, but. ]

[ they take a sip from their glass. ]
Or I don't know what idealogical means.

Justice does not let me drink.
[ but justice isn't quite as strong as he has been. so, sort of reaching towards the glass like he's testing if he can or not. ]
Something like that. Perhaps more "you are a lunatic for thinking this way." Or "it is a lost cause."
