[ S I G H. Actual sigh. Don't make him feel sorry for cultists! ]
We needed Andraste's ashes to help my... Arl Eamon. Jon— Cousland peeked in a back room and saw a body, and they attacked us. You know me, Beleth. I wasn't stabbing children, no matter how many human bones they had in their pockets.
I'm sorry about your friend, though. I'm glad he's all right and. Hopefully. Reasonably sane.
[ Beleth has +5 ranks in guilt tripping don't mess w/ her ]
I know that you wouldn't do something like that, Alistair. That's why it was so odd to hear about that. I just wanted to...reconcile the two versions. It sounds like there was, um. Misunderstandings on both sides.
[ Misunderstandings about murder and blood rituals and what not. But then she pauses, and...gives a soft laugh. ]
He's odd, but...so are most people I know. [ No names. Alistair. ] I like him. He's interesting. I don't think I've met a human quite like him before.
--But. [ Throat clearing. ] I just wanted to. Hear both sides, as it were. And Cousland isn't exactly here for interrogation.
[ A good call. Alistair should mark the occasion. ]
--I don't know. He can turn into a wolf. So. Maybe? I can ask.

His hair is nice. It's really curly. Like mine, if I don't bother brushing it or anything.
[ Alistair's probably seen the natural disaster her hair transforms into in the mornings, until water and a brush smooth it into something manageable. ]
Hmmm. Mhm. [ Ponderingly. Evaluating Alan as a prospect for himself, personally, Alistair. ] Part canine, bramble bush hair. Sounds promising. How about his face—is his face all right?
...I don't know. I mean. It was a long time ago. Would it settle any issues with his past--? Or it could just involve him learning that his village wasn't as innocent as he thought it was.
I. I don't know. I guess I'll wait until I know him better, and ask?

[ After a pause to stop being angry at people who are probably dead, his voice changes to the aural equivalent of an arched eyebrow and smirk. ]
Is he odd and... handsome?

[ Alistair is rewarded for his HORRIBLE BULLYING with an indignant wheezing noise. And instead of answering: ]
Why, are you interested? I can put a good word in for you, if you'd like.

His nose is nice. He's got a strong nose.

...I do think I'll recommend him talking to you at some point, though. It might help put unresolved matters to rest.

But if you like him, sure. I could give it a shot.
