A comforted smile. But it's a wan one, because she still wants Val's friendship. She still wants Val around and Val-ish and weirdly wonderful in his vain, cocky way. It's still nice to hear her boyfriend offering to slug someone who hurt her.

"Thank you," she decides is the appropriate response.

As far as she is concerned, he has been invited to help. And she looks somewhat distressed when he asks.

"I...I don't know. I don't know. I can't. I can't...dictate to you how to comfort me. I don't have those words. I've always been forbidden those words. I can't think for both of us when I'm already thinking too much on my own."

[ This is probably something that ought to be done in person, but Beleth is pretty sure if she tried to do this face-to-face, she'd wimp out. Or worse, she'd get so flustered that she'd start rambling like an idiot.

She's not entirely sure she'll avoid it, even like this.

Hello, James? I--um. Have you seen the announcement that we posted? The division leaders, that is. Regarding the Hightown party. I was wondering if you would like to attend. But...I was, ah. Hoping that you'd like to attend...with. Um. Me. Specifically.

[ Yet another argument for getting images working on the crystals already. ]

Diplomatic? Well, the whole party is--Oh.

[ She clears her throat. ]

Well--I mean. You've proven able to handle yourself in representing the Inquisition, and maneuvering around political situations, dealing with nobles. So--I thought you would, ah. Be a sound choice to attend with me.

But--Uh. You'd like to go? Really?

[ Beleth blinks a bit, confused by his strange response--was he upset for her asking him? Or--No, don't be stupid. ]

The event will be in a few weeks, and I'd say...something reasonably formal. Like when Madame de Fer threw that soiree a while back. But not quite on the level of Halamshiral.

But thank you for coming with me. I'm--Um. I'm sure that you could attend with someone better if you wanted, so. I'm glad that you're alright with going with me.

I--

[ Congratulations, Beleth has been rendered speechless. Or at least incoherent, because she makes several attempts at saying something, but cuts out half a word in. He wouldn't want to go with anyone besides her? No one at all? He thinks she's marvelous?

What is wrong with him. Maybe he's just being nice.

...Really?

[ Smooth. ]

[ Luckily, Beleth somehow finds it charming. Or maybe she's just still charmed from his previous attempts. ]

A presence. Of course. I--Um. Thank you, that's...It's very kind. You're very kind, James. I hope that you know that.

[His voice is wary.]

I need to know if you taunted the little apprentice in the dungeons with the thought of Tranquility.

[Gently:]

I came to you to ask you directly, rather than file a complaint. He is young and easily scared and I wanted more information.

And speaking of young, 'future blood mage magister' is not set in stone. There is a chance to bring him back from that edge, Norrington. Bringing up Tranquility and telling someone they are lucky it's not being practiced does not help there. I ask you to be gentle and understand that he is afraid and alone.

Accepted.

[The magister is tricky territory that Anders would like to think about as little as possible, but he can easily see why Atticus would set people on edge. He takes a breath.]

I heavily agree with Kit. I went to check on Benedict's health and found him lost and looking for a path forward. Isolation can hurt a great deal, as can the cold, but if these things are seen to I believe he can be reached.

And you should know that Kit is afraid of magic, so him trusting a Tevinter mage says far more than I ever could.

Many of us know Dispel. Including me. We do not always need Templars, Norrington. I can find mages who have combat instincts just in case, who know Dispel, who will be company for him in the library.

[This is important. Templars acting as the jailers for two mages is already a precedent that's going to be difficult to move past in the future. His voice is calm and even, words chosen carefully.]

He is terrified of Templars, and for good reason. Let him see that being surrounded by them and constantly watched by them is not permanent. That he has other mages here who will see him as one of their own if he wants to join us.

[He takes a careful breath.]

Allow me to speak to a few mages and see if they're willing. The two who first come to mind are Kostos and Vandelin, alongside myself. It is a great responsibility, but we must spend time seeing to our own rather than passing them on to others.
