Let's talk this through

Nathaniel walked in, his usual charming smile flickered across his face, though his eyes probably betrayed his more chaotic thoughts at the moment. Nothing was wrong really, but he felt weighed down by his inability to make a decision about whether or not to become a guinea pig for Rosalie Rutherford’s blight treatment.

He followed her through the home and nodded as she said it was good to see him again. The feeling was quite mutual and he made that known. While the blights were going on he’d had far less free time to go visiting to Denerim. As she asked about Soldier’s Peak he tipped his head slightly as he considered his answer.

Well with the blights over, it’s certainly freed up our time. I mean there’s still making sure Ferelden is completely free of the damn things, the stragglers causing mischief here and there, and of course dealing with some of the bandits that swooped in during the blight to take advantage of people. People really could just be complete assholes, as if a blight isn’t bad enough, there would always people trying to use it as a way to take advantage of people.

He looked at the food and drink and suddenly realised how hungry he was. Had he even eaten breakfast that day? He was entirely not sure, as the hours had a way of evaporating around him when he got busy with something, not to mention the fact that he had been anticipating his visit with Elanna all week.

It’s like you saw the future and knew I was going to be famished! He joked though before he ate anything he wanted to get the important bits out of the way first, the reason he’d asked to meet up with her.
