VIDEO; UN: COOLSKELETON95

Hello, everyone!

[And to those who have yet to see a talking, walking skeleton, here you go.]

I wanted to first say good job to everyone who helped the villagers to safety! And also thank you to those who helped protect everyone! Everyone really did their best out there, and I think ALASTAIR will be very proud of us! I know I am. Hopefully now there can be attempts for real peace between the humans and the goblins!

[Although he doesn't agree exactly on the way everything went down, there's no point in bringing that up when he's trying to congratulate everyone.]

I do have another thing I wanted to ask, though.

[He rubs subconsciously at his wrist, and continues.]

I haven't heard from Koltira at all. I've tried calling him a few times, but he isn't answering his phone. So if anyone has seen him in the past few days, please let me know! I am worried about him.

Well. You seem like a really nice guy. ( skeleton? not that she's judging. he's obviously not been forcibly necromanced so. w/e tbh. ) You're quite forgiving and generous. Make sure you give yourself a pat on the back, too.

[boneafide]

Why thank you! And you seem like a very nice human yourself!

I give myself a round of applause every morning after I wake up, but I will also give myself a pat on the back! It's a good thing I'm very flexible.

[bougy]

Flatterer. ( she laughs, too. ) We humans can be such blighters.

Well, that's one way to start the day off positively. Do you have a morning exercise programme?

[boneafide]

What's a blighter??

Oh, yes, of course! But I only do the "round of applause" after I wake up, so that's only once a week. I do the morning exercises every day! So first I start with running ten laps around the city, and then after that I move onto pushups, and then after that I practice trying to suplex boulders.

[bougy]

Right assholes. ( simple as that. )

So, what, you only sleep once a week? That could be why you're having a hard time wrestling boulders. A good night's sleep is very important to muscle recovery and--growth.

[boneafide]

I see!

[Guess what word he WON'T be using now...]

Oh no, my muscles don't need sleep!!

[Note that he doesn't argue... that he doesn't have any... because he is a skeleton...]

They are magic muscles.

[bougy]

( kind of a shame tbh. she wouldn't mind spreading some of the 'colloquial language' from her world. cultural exchange and all. )

Are they? I imagine you have to take especially good care of them since they could be dispelled. It'd be wise for a mage since most of them are so unatheltic your physique is an unfair advantage.

[boneafide]

Oh, are those human magic rules??

[Because he's very much... not human. ]

I don't have to worry about that at all with mine! They're always there! Just sometimes... invisible.

[...Hawke may get the impression that he is not the brightest skeleton in the cave in terms of intelligence. ]

[bougy]

Not particularly. Mages are an unruly bunch, human or not.

Why? For camogloue?

( she's definitely got her suspicions which...well, she may troll him a bit. it's hard to resist when it's easy. )

[boneafide]

That sounds dangerous! I like it!

So I don't intimidate anyone too much!
