#hijacking the mole interest tag

Mole interest, czech edition

So I was browsing through Alistair’s tag (Becca I love him, but who doesn’t), and I saw that him and I saw your post about him and Morowa getting along like two peas in a pod. I was just curious about what what their dynamic would be like?

(This is the post in reference.)

Morowa loves herself a jokester and a goofball and Alistair is both. In DAO, Alistair is snarky, sarcastic, and facetious. Alistair’s brand of humour–pretending to put on airs, mimicking voices, and hijacking otherwise serious conversations by dialling up the absurdity of his responses (e.g., offering to show the Warden “a couple of interesting-looking moles” when asked one too many personal questions)–makes him Morowa’s dream conversationalist.

I imagine they’d have a rapport where Morowa would “yes, and…” his experiences, supporting and buying into whatever Alistair says in that moment while contributing additional details (e.g., “It was difficult being home-schooled by a pack of dogs, you know, but now Alistair can bark fluently in three languages”) to disquieted strangers. I think they’d make a bizarre albeit fun duo.

But I don’t think those qualities of Alistair’s are necessarily on grand display in DAI like they were in DAO… which leads me to yet another Dragon Age AU with Morowa as Grey Warden.
