Does this happen often? I'm not sure I like it. I look like I should be plotting my next escape from the Circle... or like I should be trying to endear myself to others through various means.

	~~Well hiiiii there~~ Damn you're hot. With a cute face like yours, I can certainly think of a few fun ways to.. 'endear' to others. So much fun too. ;) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you? But, yes, that was the general idea of it in the Circle, too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This Circles, it it.. like a college with lots of books and magic? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Something like that. Just toss in the fact that we're never meant to leave and you've got it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well fuck me, that's insane. Trapped with books and magic lessons.. I can definitely see a need for an outlet and 'distraction' during that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-07 08:47 pm UTC (link)
	The magic part wasn't so bad but, yes. Exactly. You had a number of young people living in close proximity to one another, of course there was a need for some sort of distraction. On top of that we weren't, technically, supposed to be doing that but you know how it is when you deny a group of teenagers something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mmmhmm, I can imagine. How can they put a group of young cute people together and NOT expect them to do forbidden things with each other? And of course there's also the added part of doing things you're not allowed to has a certain.. er, rush to it, yes? Makes it even hotter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-08 12:53 am UTC (link)
	Exactly. The more you forbid something the more enticing it becomes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	getmetobed 2024-04-08 01:19 am UTC (link)
	And I bet at the time, you must have been very enticing. :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-08 01:29 am UTC (link)
	I may have been. A few of the older mages certainly thought so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	getmetobed 2024-04-08 02:15 am UTC (link)
	I know I certainly wouldn't mind a demonstration of.. forbidden acts you've done there. I'm also quite skilled at them myself. If you'd like to, of course. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-08 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	Is that so? I might just take you up on that. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	pb_p 2024-04-07 05:20 pm UTC (link)
	This is AWFUL. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-07 05:26 pm UTC (link)
	It's definitely something. I can't say I have very many good memories associated with this time. It might be terrible to say but I'm glad I'm not alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pb_p 2024-04-07 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	At least...now it wouldn't be weird if I went and hung over with my other self and the others I know here? At this age? I was just trying to get by and not have my life crumble. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-07 06:11 pm UTC (link)
	You could. That might be fun. I haven't heard from my... group. I'm not sure what's going on with them. I lived in the Circle. Had been there for years by now. I made constant escapes and was dragged back by Templars each time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pb_p 2024-04-07 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	Now's probably a good time to check. That's my next step. What's the Circle? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-07 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	I'm going to wait and see if mine crawl out of the wood work. It's... sort of like a prison, I guess. When a young person proves to have some sort of magical ability they're taken away by Templars and sent to the Circle where they're meant to spend the rest of their lives cut off from the rest of the world.

	pb_p 2024-04-08 02:15 pm UTC (link)
	That's terrible. We don't have that where I'm from but there's plenty of people who don't like powered people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-08 11:40 pm UTC (link)
	I guess it's no different anywhere you go. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Odd things DO happen here, but this is a new level of chaos. ...I can identify with most of that, if you replace "Circle" with "Chantry". (Reply to this) (Thread)

	an_apostate 2024-04-08 12:40 am UTC (link)
	I'm not sure if I think this is terrible or not. Things could definitely be worse. I'm a little surprised we have that in common. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It IS better than some of the things we've seen here. The LAST time I changed ages, I was older. But then again, this time I've not gotten a bastard delivered by a bird because I kissed someone, and there don't seem to be any griffons ready to tear my limbs from my body...

...Suprised to hear I'm something of a people pleaser? Am I THAT obnoxious? ...Oh dear, you may actually want to answer that one honestly. Suppose I've walked into deserving it.

I did notice the arm. I could have fixed that for you if I had been here. I'm glad thr baby thing hasn't happened to me. I'm not even sure who the last person I kissed was.

You come off very stiff and more than little stuffy. If it weren't for that one time I would've assumed you were always that way. I can't fault you for being a people pleaser. Sometimes it helps you survive.

It's funny. There IS someone else here with something of the ability but we've an...awkward history to say the least. The baby thing was...dramatic. The strangest part being when talking cute animals showed up to apologise for their mistake. I don't know if I want to think about how that resolved itself too closely.

That's...quite fair as assessments go. And that one time was... I surprised myself as well. I hadn't thought I still had that in me, but I somehow feel as if thanking that visitor Hawke was in order there, and NOT crawling away to hide.

Ah, that it can. It becomes difficult to unlearn.

An awkward history? I'm sure there are others you could've turned to if you had wanted to. You seem to have adjusted well. As I said, I'm glad I wasn't here for it. Babies, in general, are just... it's difficult to really talk about. BUT the talking cute animal thing is almost too strange to believe.

You wouldn't have had the opportunity. He talked us into something and then disappeared without a care to the possible chaos he'd caused. It was all very Hawke. It could have been handled differently by multiple people.

It does.

I had meant to ask you a question about my looks since this fellow here had me questioning but I guess that's resolved. Do you know him?
