"It's impossible to talk to you!"
He always brings it up - my blood magic. Blood magic isn't bad or evil; it comes from the Fade just like any other magic. Okay, I admit that some people use it to do bad things - very bad things – but they were driven to it; by people like him.
I know that Fenris has his reasons. Everyone with something against mages has their reasons. What happened to him was awful, but why can't he be more open? I don't see him talking to Hawke like he talks to me. He even treats Anders with more kindness than he treats me. And he looks at me with those eyes… No, he doesn't look at me; he looks through me, as if I'm not there at all. Just like my clan did before I left. Just like Pol did before he…
Am I evil? I try to do good. I leave little bits of food out for the stray cats that live around Lowtown. I help Hawke with whatever she needs. I try to be a good and honest person. I even gave a homeless man a few silvers once. Yes, he might have been a little- a little excited when I passed him on my way home from the Hanged Man; and I might have had to give him something so he would stop following me. Was that bribery? Does that make me bad? I don't know.
What would Varric say in these situations? "Cheer up, Daisy. Your petals are wilting." Do petals wilt? Or is it just the stems? I suppose every part of the flower wilts eventually. Fenris would probably say magic is to blame for that too. But really it's just lack of care and affection. Maybe that's what Fenris needs, a hug…
"Fenris?"
