well, here's how I described what I've been doing tonight to my father:
Alistair: Soooooooooooo I hate being in charge of things, what should we do next? Laemira: Well, I was totes going to go to Redcliffe, but then you spoiled me and I felt like it was too early in our...+8 relationship to be doing that, so I said, sup, I'm from the Circle of Mages, I mean they were about to kick me out and then label me an apostate, i.e. kill me, but anyway I'm sure they'd be happy to see me again, now that I drank that darkspawn blood and am a Grey Warden and stuff.
oh hay thar Greagoir, remember how you wanted to kill me? SUP GREY WARDEN BITwait what about abominations in my tower?
hoshi you just LEFT PEOPLE THERE?
to DIE?
i'm-a gonna kill you. But first I'm going to kill the abominations JUST TRY TO GET IN MAH WAY OR--or slam the door on me. You know, whatevs. 'scool--
HOSHI THE APPRENTICE DORMS WAIT I LIVED HERE LIKE ALL OF TWO WEEKS AGO ALL MY FRIENDS AAAAAAAH THOSE ARE THEIR CORPSES AAAAAAAH THIS PLACE IS A WRECK
Wynne! I will assume that since I want to be a spirit healer you were one of my closer teachers, and holy cow I hope you live long enough to let me specialize, I WANT TO SPECIALIZE, DAMMIT
HOSHI ABOMINATIONS AND STATUES THAT ARE ZAPPING ME AND APPRENTICES BEING DUMB AND MAGES BEING MORE DUMB AND ENCHANTERS MAKING ME WANT TO PUNCH THEM AND
FRICK WHO KNEW A FRICKIN DESIRE DEMON WOULD BE SO FRICKIN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I JUST. HATE EVERYONE TODAY.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH MY HOME IS IN RUIIIIINNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSS
(Laemira's progress through the game: --La! I am a hopeful idealist about the future of Chantry/Mage relations. If we just act nice, surely they will figure out we are not freaks! I will conquer this Harrowing thing easy! --What Jowan? You and Lily need my help? I believe in love! Sure I will help you! --Aw man, Jowan, you were lying about the blood mage thing? That kind of hurts. --Irving is trying to keep me from getting killed! Silly Chantry, I didn't do anything--Grey Warden? Bwuh? --Sure I'll become an epic hero why this young man looks so nice and faintly non-clean-shaven hopefully he will be around for a--drink darkspawn blood? O...kay... --Loghain betrayed the king and left the king and Duncan to die and Alistair and I are the only Grey Wardens left? That's...not too encouraging. But maybe if I'm a good mage AND a good Grey Warden, this will all work out well! Also: campsites with Alistair. And Morrigan I mean I really admire her independence I'd kind of like some of it for myself. --Greagoir left everyone inside to DIE? Frickin' Chantry cowards frickin' templar ugh this--this might be hatred. --AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH MY HOME MY HOME this isn't darkspawn this is just stupidity I am so ashamed of my fellow mages right now I swear I will stop this nonsense and go back to saving Ferelden and--and man, considering the fact that I grew up in precarious stability and have spent the past two weeks running around like a headless chicken, I would really appreciate some, uh, stability in my future. Just--just sayin'.
she is so cute and determined and polite and cheerful. FRICK.)
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I haven't finished the quest because I should pretend I haven't spent the majority of the past forty-eight hours watching/playing this game. Oops.
(omg it is SO MUCH PRETTIER on Quark's machine. one day I will have a proper PC of my own on which to play it. by which point, like, DA3 will be out, BUT WHATEVS.)
THIS IS NOT A REPLY IT'S MORE LIKE AN UPDATE
