[ oh don't worry he's angry too. ]

No, thanks.

[ reaching up to touch at his nose, wincing. ]

Quite the show, I take it. I heard all the lights went off.

[ oh yes of course. ]

Congratulations. You have all met Justice. [ grade: :) ] ... I am possessed.

[ but he knows mizu is not particularly familliar with magic, so. ]

He is a part of me. I would not say we are two separate entities - we are one being, though parts of us are stronger than the other at times. He is not a person like you or I, but a Spirit, an embodiment of the virtue he strives for. We have been together for many years at this point.

He's not as strong here as he normally is. Perhaps it is being distant from the Fade, or less certain of his goals, but for the most part I can control it.

He has his moments. And not-moments.

[ "i can control it" - guy who is famously not controlling it ]

He cares about these things. It ... is his body too.

And? You had to be talked down just Thursday afternoon from killing Claude with less than half your blood.

I would not tell you to care less.

[ right. well. he gets that. he has his share of dramatic promises to kill or be killed under certain contingencies - he can't judge that. ]

... Hawke is already doomed. You know as well as I do if he hadn't been voted for, he would have been a target. If this happens again, an easy vote. I imagine he thought the same thing about me when he chose my execution.

[ this doesn't answer the "would you have been alright" question, but maybe "alright" is beyond the point. he was not alright to begin with, so what's the point in aiming for that? ]
