action;

Catch you at a bad time?

[One corner of his smile dimples at the corner when Alistair answers the door. Accepting the invitation inside, Anders looks around the room, curiously taking in the homey, unembellished ambiance that--surprisingly--isn't all that far removed from his own modest quarters.]

I have to admit, I expected more... bells and whistles. [But aside from that, Anders seems fresh out of teasing comments about Alistair's taste in interior design. He sits on the bed.] I'll keep that in mind for next time.

[And now that he's exhausted the small talk, it's time to get to the point. Moment of truth. He'd been thinking about what he to say if he broached the subject with the other Wardens in Wonderland, how to frame his words in the least self-incriminating way. Now that he's actually here, the conversations he'd staged with himself in his head seem stupid.

He thinks about resting his hands beside him on the bed covers, then changes his mind and moves them to his lap, curling the fingers of one hand around the other. It's not like him to fear the unknown like this, but it's usually not characteristic of the unknown to show up on his doorstep and threaten him with terrible things that have yet to happen.]


Well, there's no simple way to bring it up. I wanted to ask you now that I've been here awhile now and have had time to gain some perspective... What do you think about this idea of other Thedases out there? [Anders can hear himself circling around the real reason for this meeting, and he shakes his head.] It's just that... I wasn't seeing the whole picture when we first met and you suggested there could be two different versions of you and two different Heroes of Ferelden. Do you believe that's true? That we're being brought in from different times, after different choices?
