#a low improval inquisitor gets all the juicy details

[thebookworm0001]

I find it wildly interesting that solas will tell you so much more about him and his plans if he hates you

it’s just such a damn good manifestation of his pride and how it’s affected by his relationships

of course he doesn’t see an issue with telling you these details if he hates you - why would he? he is so convinced of himself and of your inability to live up to expectations that he could tell you everything and it wouldn’t matter. hell, he may have actually done that at one point. You are less than the dirt beneath his feet. He is Pride and you are not worthy of even the appearance of concern.

Meanwhile a befriended inquisitor? His Pride is different. He’s holding onto the idea that he has a job he must do - and he knows you’re a worthy adversary. He outright tells you it would be easy to let you know too much. He knows he could share his heart with you so easily and he knows that would undo him. He knows how powerful you are because his entire worldview was changed just by being in your proximity. Imagine if he truly let you in? Imagine if he let you know more than he already has - you’d ruin it all. You’d save him from himself and he can’t let that happen.

And a romanced inquisitor probably learns the least. You nearly got him to abandon everything and he can’t he can’t let that happen again. So he falls into self-pity and gives you the absolute bare minimum he can without feeling like he’s betrayed you by not giving you some kind of explanation. You changed everything, so you must change nothing.
