[Honestly he doesn't know what to say. It's more than a little unexpected for her to say such a thing and it catches him completely off-guard.
He's spent such a long time having his decisions made for him that he's just come to accept it. Being expressly told that he has a choice then is... odd. But as uncertain as Alistair is about the Warden he still appreciates that she feels the need to say it. She doesn't have to and doesn't have much reason to show him such concern. It's strange but not in a bad way, even if part of him wonders if it's not just that he looks like somebody she actually cares about but isn't him.
In the end though, whatever happens to him won't affect her one bit. She didn't have to say anything at all and that she did matters, whatever the motivation.]
No, it wasn't too forward. I don't think so. Ah... Thanks. I- I'll remember that.
[He clears his throat awkwardly and quickly asks-] So. Another Warden. Did you want me to introduce you?
