[ 001 ] [ Audio ]

[gotyourwallet]

To those of you I haven't met, my name is Vie. Should this name register familiar to any of you, please, I would like to know. 

[She falls silent. Vie can't help but feel a little silly.]

Once already I've encountered someone who knew me but I did not know him. And now I am left to wonder if my mind has been tampered with, or my memory, for that matter.

[This is a foolish venture. What can she hope to achieve from it? The names of more who know her but that she doesn't recall?]

My question, is if anyone else has had similar experiences, or if I'm on my own. However, if we come from different worlds, different lands, then who is to say that alternate realities do not exist? Fa'rein, I sound mad.

I am... wary of this place.

[And everyone in it.]

[Face, meet palm. Hey, at least she smiles a little.]

Thank you Hawke, for the vote of confidence.

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Always happy to help.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

Any real thought to what I've just said? Or are you here to tell me I'm crazy and leave it at that?

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Perhaps it's the other fellow who's a loon. What reason do you even have to believe that he really knows you.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

His eyes.

[Kevas just about broke her heart.]

I've no doubt from the look he gave me that he knows me. I'm just trying to work out how.

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Just how hard on the head were you hit?

RIVALRY + 3

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

Quite the comedian aren't you.

[She does however take that into consideration.]

Hard enough to black out, but any damage from that should be healed days ago. I just... This is--

[...]

I'm going to shut up now, I think.

DAMMIT! /reloads save

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

I'm told that it's one of my charms.

[Alright, he'll give you a serious answer if you really want one. Sheesh.]

Blood magic is the only thing I know that could tamper with another person's mind. This place doesn't seem to be sporting any demons though.

[Of course what does he know about demons. That's Merrill's and Anders' expertise.]

Blood magic? I've never heard of it.

[Vie frowns.]

Nor demons.

/PUNCHES COMPUTER

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Lucky you.

[Though he has doubts that's what's going on here.]

Perhaps it's nothing more than a trick.

/BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!!

[She makes a frustrated sound. Silence fills the air for a moment and then, Vie sighs.]

If I've lost memories I should like them returned. Trick or not, if someone is responsible for this... Merce. I will find them and teach them why it is wrong to tamper.

[It's the nicest way she can word 'revenge'.]

/RAGE QUIT!

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Maybe if we ask nicely they'll give them back.

/SPARKS AND FIRE!

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

If anything was taken in the first place without asking, then I can't see the intentions being so charitable.

/THROWS OUT THE WINDOW

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Then we ask a little less nicely.

[Hawke finds that when diplomacy fails, beating the hell out of someone usually works.]

/DRAMATIC SLOW MOTION MATRIX STYLE FALL!

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

[She smiles at that.]

Nice to know that you and I work the same way.

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

I find that people are so much easier to deal with if you stab them a few times first.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

Setting them on fire or threatening to drop them from a great height works a charm as well.

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Nothing quite helps break the ice like a broken leg or two.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

[She laughs, thankful for the distraction and glad to have someone like Hawke around.]

How have you been anyway? Aside from trapped in a strange castle, that is?

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Just taking in the sights, enjoying the air, trying not to lose my mind. The usual things.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

I found a bar in the guard tower. Quiet and well stocked.

[She might have been spending a lot of time there, what say you?]

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

Please tell me it's not filled with the same poison that killed my tongue.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

Do you really think I would go there if the drinks on offer tasted that bad? It's not great, but it's certainly drinkable.

[iwannabeadragon.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised you can still taste anything after that. Everything tastes like leather to me now.

[gotyourwallet.livejournal.com]

[She laughs.]

Well then, I guess my tastebuds are just stronger than yours. It's alright, Hawke. I won't tell anyone that a girl beat you...

[Teasing? Hell yes.]
