[ he runs his thumb over the back of his knuckles when he feels that tension, but does bring her up to sit at the bar with him ]

I got the answer I wanted. I'm not satisfied, but I knew I wouldn't be. As long as I know what happened to him... that's enough.

It just hurts, that this is the result and someone else has to be separated from someone they love.

[sacredpath]

I'm glad it's enough. Truly.

[that does matter, then.]

At first he seemed to be saying he'd done it for an apple, and then it was less clear. [and i haven't got that far in my pc with hawke so i still don't know.] If it were for an apple, would that really be alright with you? Simply because he'd done it for love?

[noirges]

Hmmm. [ he looks thoughtful for a second. he squeezes her hand and then goes behind the bar to get them drinks ] Beer? Wine? Something stronger?

[ just to keep him busy while he thinks about it ]

... if it's not him in his right mind, I can forgive him. If he consciously chose Adolphe for an apple... then I can't.

But that's a type of love I admire too. Even if it took something away from me... I can't deny it.

[sacredpath]

Wine will do nicely.

[anyway she listens to all of this. there really is such a darkness in you.]

Well, I don't admire it. What a nice present for Anders, I'm sure he loved receiving it.

[ picking one out! and then pouring two glasses for them. he'll just have what she's having ]

... I am worried about him. He had to make an impossible choice today.

[ for someone who believes in Justice so deeply ]

[sacredpath]

I don't know if it was that difficult of a choice for him. A painful one, only because the one he was making wasn't one everyone else could accept.

[noirges]

[ . . . ]

I think in the end, all these choices are going to be painful in one way or another. It'll only be moreso as the weeks go on and we don't have any signs of this stopping.

Should we make a plan to just always head out for drinks after?

[ he is trying to be just a little light-hearted ]

[sacredpath]

I would like that.

[especially if that means he'll still be here.]

I don't know that we'll ever get satisfaction of any sort from these trials. But if their souls are missing or lost somewhere, that's something we can try to affect.

[noirges]

[ a small smile ]

Then let's make that the plan. I won't go anywhere, as much as I can control it.

[ and maybe somewhere in there is an apology for his actions earlier... but at least the intention to not repeat them ]

But... you're right. I know the angels are looking. Whatever I can do to help, I plan on it. Adolphe doesn't seem the type, but I do think he gets lonely easier than you'd think.

[sacredpath]

Fine by me.

[she's not upset about earlier. she couldn't judge someone for seeing what life has to offer and seeing what heaven has and deciding the latter is more worthwhile. just don't throw it all away for toxic old man yaoi.]

I'm sure he's missing your company.

[noirges]

[ but it's such compelling toxic old man yaoi.... look at them go.... ]

He'd never say it out loud outside of those party games... but I bet he is...

[ fondly but also with a hint of gremlin bc one of yves's hobbies is harassing adolphe ]

[sacredpath]

[maybe she's just jealous he was her boyfriend on monday and dying for some other guy on saturday... the timeline is problematic]

I'm sure. It will be even harder if he has no way to admit it.

[noirges]

[ we fridged our women yet again

yves just laughs a little bit at that, even as he takes a sip of his wine. it's a little weak, given how little he's laughed this weekend... but he is trying ]

I'll just harass him more next time we meet.

Everyone's been reminding me that his soul's just lost... not gone. So... I'll count on that.
