“Good heavens…. People.” “Have you no compassion for my poor nerves?” “If every man in the room does not end the evening in love with you, then I’m no judge of beauty.” “How can you tease me so?” “One of these days, someone will catch your eye, and then you’ll have to watch your tongue.” “Miserable he may be, but poor he most certainly is not.” “Count your blessings. If he liked you, you’d have to talk with him.” “I wouldn’t dance with him for all of _, let alone the miserable half.” “Do you like to dance?” “I thought poetry was the food of love.” “What do you recommend to encourage affection?” “No, men are far too easy to judge.” “Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony, which is why I will end up an old maid.”  “You’ve liked many a stupider person.” “All the world is good and agreeable in your eyes.” ”So which one of these painted peacocks is _?” “I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine.” “Your skills in the art of matchmaking are positively occult.” “I’m no longer surprised at your knowing accomplished women, I rather wonder at your knowing any.” “Our surest way of disappointing him will be to ask him nothing about it.” “Would you find pride a fault or a virtue?” “My good opinion, once lost, is lost forever.” “What a shame, for I dearly love to laugh.” “Believe me, no one would suspect your manners to be rehearsed.” “Dear, oh dear. You must be the shame of the regiment.” “Oh, _, do you never think ill of anybody?” “It is my intention, if I may be so bold, to remain close to you throughout the evening.” “It would be most inconvenient, since I have sworn to loathe him for all eternity.” “Please advise me on what you would like most to hear.” “Oh no, I prefer to be unsociable and taciturn.” “I hear such different accounts of you as puzzle me exceedingly.” “I hope to afford you more clarity in the future.”  “She’s just shy and modest.” “Men are eaten up with either arrogance or stupidity.” “There are few of us secure enough to be really in love without proper encouragement.” “We are all fools in love.” “He does not know her character as we do.” “You give your opinion very decidedly for so young a person.” “With 5000 a year, it would not matter if he had warts and a leer.” “You know perfectly well I do not believe marriage should be driven by a lot of money.” “Only a man truly confident in himself would admit to that.” “Can’t help but feel at any point someone’s going to produce a piglet and make us chase it.” “You have insulted me in every possible, and can now have nothing to say.” “Headstrong, foolish child!” “If they are amiable, they are so easily led that they have no minds of their own whatsoever.” “You’re free to go off and be jilted yourself.” “Oh, for heaven’s sake, _, don’t look at me like that.” “Not all of us can afford to be romantic.” “I must confess, the view from where I sit has been rather grey.” “I’m well enough acquainted with you to know that I cannot alarm you even should I wish it.” “I do not have the talent of conversing easily with people I have never met before.” “What on earth have you done to poor _?” “I have struggled in vain and can bear it no longer.” “I love you… Most ardently.” ”I am very sorry to have caused you pain.” “Is that your opinion of me?” “Take care, that savors strongly of bitterness.” “What are men compared to rocks and mountains?” “Do you not think him handsome?” “How can I ever make amends for such behavior?” “You must know… surely you must know it was all for you.” “One word from you will silence me forever.” “You have bewitched me, body and soul.” “Your hands are cold.”

“Is being a Grey Warden always like this? All gloom, and doom? Tell me something amusing, would you please? Have any good stories? A funny joke, even.”

                 ❛ I’m afraid you were just lucky enough to catch us at the beginning of the Blight, great for you. ❜ The chuckle that slips from between his lips is not authentic. It’s uncomfortable and awkward as it tries to lighten up the mood. ❛ And you should know by now, I’ve ALWAYS got a funny joke up my sleeve. What do The Grey Warden’s say when they don’t sense any darkspawn? ❜

                   I AM A GARDEN OF A SINGLE ROSE; BLOSSOMING IN INFINITE WAYS.

                 ALRIGHT now it’s time for a plotting call. I am also open to pre-established things so give this a like and I’ll send you a chat message after I start setting up my Cullen blog. I also might cave and make either my Trevelyan boo or my Mahariel. 

A hero of the recent Fifth Blight, the Grey Warden Alistair is credited alongside the Hero of Ferelden with slaying the Archdemon and sparing Thedas the ravages of the darkspawn.

“ Bad things should happen to bad people. “  ” Rich tits always try for more than they deserve “ " Whatever the truth is, that belief gives you power. ” “ Can’t you see why I want nothing to do with that life? “ " I have seen the throne of the gods, and it was empty. ” “ I will not suffer even an unknowing rival. You must die! “ " Tell me… where is your Maker now? Call him, call down his wrath upon me! You cannot. For he does not exist! “ " Common ground is the start of all negotiations. ” “ Though darkness closes, I am shielded by flame. “ " It spoke of judgement instead of acceptance. It should encourage the good in everyone, rather than rebuke us for our sins. No one should be turned away from our doors. No one is without worth. Whoever you are, whatever your mistakes, you are loved. Unconditionally. “ " If we’re going to change it, why not change the whole thing? “ " I’ve known mages. Some of them were better people than me. And yet I’m free and they’re not. It’s not right. “ " Sometimes you have to figure out for yourself what the pledge to protect others really means. “ " You are who you choose to follow. “ " Took me years to understand what he meant. “ " But wars are won by men. “ " You inspire them. “ " Build on that foundation, and you will have an army that makes nations tremble. “ " We all need to believe there are such men in the world. “ " I needed to believe I could be one of them. “ " We could make the world better. “ " It’s just easier to shut our eyes. “ " It’s not right… to want to do good, to be good, and have that turned against you. “ " At this moment, you are the only threat I see. “ " How seldom does reality match the ideal. “ ” We must do so with open hearts and open hands. “ “ I see what must be done, and I do it! I see no point in running around in circles like a dog chasing its tail. “ " At some point, power becomes its own master. “ " They will stand in the fire and complain that it is hot. “  " I want to help. “ " I used to be like you. I’m not anymore. You shouldn’t be either. “ " They forgot about him. “ " I came through to help… and I couldn’t. “ " Isn’t it wonderful? “ " Living a lie… it festers inside you, like poison. You have to fight for what’s in your heart. “ " It’s my duty to stand with you. “ ” I’m here to set things right. Also? To look dashing. That part’s less difficult. “ " We’re a lot more fragile than we’d like to believe. “ " Life isn’t about personal freedom. “ " People don’t always tell the truth when you’re polite. “ " We pick the ones willing to make the hard decisions… and live with the consequences. “ " Every great war has its heroes. I’m just curious what kind you’ll be. “ " No real god need prove himself. Anyone who tries is mad or lying. “ " I would not trade it for anything. “ " I hope there’s a damn good punchline coming. “ " The truly great ones can keep their distance. They don’t get attached to their people. “ " I always wind up babysitting my informants and worrying about their families. “ ”  Heroes are everywhere. I’ve seen that.” “ That’s beyond heroes. We’re going to need a miracle. “ " For those who value survival, sentimentality is not an option. ” “ I’m never truly out of my element. “
