Thanks, Catspaw. His original design was based off Wesley Snipes for a face I made for a requester over at the DANexus. The request was for Blade from the movies, and along with this face WolfheartHU made the hair and tats for the head. I think it might still be over there called Project Daywalker. I like the face enough I just changed the hair and made him Gilmore. My Lekse is also a lot like my Gilmore, based on a friend of mine.
And some Alistair for on topicness. hehe

OMG! I just grabbed the most awesome killshot but I'm saving it for RDT. It shows Randi at her finest, yet!
And here's some adorable puppy eyes to start the morning off right.

Sorry I'm busy with playing and well it seems that my blot bunny is already in vacation, so no Lenya story this time. Meh.
Though for anyone interested, I have finally updated my main story.

Thought I'd add a nice Alistair shot in rak's black armour. The party is currently exploring Hidden Valley in DT.

Randi is taking up all of my spare time, what little I have of it, atm. I keep thinking I'll get inspired to write something (with her in it most likely) but so far, that hasn't happened yet. But, the week is still young.tuppence95 wrote...

After 10 hours, Hubby finally found another way to get oldest darkspawn home../../../images/forum/emoticons/grin.png
3 flights, 4 cities. Ouch. She'll only come in a day later than originally planned. Alistair is thrilled:P

Hah, yeah indeed. I don't know if having a prompt next week makes that much sense too. Better to start anew in the new year, right?
@Cat: Good that your daughter manages to find home somehow now. My cousin got stuck 8 hours at the airport as well this weekend, she wanted to fly over to London (which is just an one hour flight away from Germany, after all) but the airport in London was closed. *shakes fist at the darn weather* <_<

Thanks Meri! Your airports are still open for now. We tried, but couldn't get her any further than Frankfurt. So, she's going through Rome instead.

@Cat: Yeah our airports are open, afaik. Problem was the one in London. I dunno if my cousin managed to fly over in the end. Haven't talked to her today (she wanted to take the Saturday flight in the morning)

Splitting Hairs
“Loghain,” Alistair announced one morning just after breakfast, “is the single most evil and irredeemable creature that I have ever had the misfortune to meet…nay, that has ever existed.”
Aunn Aeducan raised her eyebrows at that. Personally, she was still withholding judgment on the matter until they knew more but her initial opinion was that he wasn’t nearly as bad as Alistair kept insisting. Alistair had picked up on this and was doing his utmost to convince her otherwise. “Don’t you think you’re exaggerating just a little?”
“Not even slightly,” Alistair said stubbornly. “In fact, I almost feel like I’m understating it but I don’t know how to possibly make my meaning any more clear without resorting to metaphors.”
“So you’ve decided that Teyrn Loghain is more evil and irredeemable than even the darkspawn?”
Aunn asked, sounding surprised. “You know, I don’t often agree with my evil brother – if only on principle – but I must say that it does sound like you’ve forgotten your training.”
Alistair flushed. “Okay, maybe he’s not as evil as the darkspawn themselves but that wasn’t what I meant and you know it.”
“Do I?” Aunn asked rhetorically. “You did say ‘creature’ and not ‘person.’ Had you used the word ‘person’ then of course I never would have assumed that you were taking the darkspawn into account.”
“Fair enough,” Alistair grumbled. “But it’s not like saying that Loghain is less evil than the darkspawn is really saying all that much.”
“Perhaps not,” Aunn acknowledged.”But it is important that we remember these things in case it ever comes down to killing Loghain or ending the Blight.”
Alistair looked baffled. “Why ever would it come down to killing Loghain or ending the Blight?”
Aunn shrugged. “I like to be prepared for all eventualities. Not doing so put me in a rather bad position, if you’ll remember.”
“Well, I guess that I can’t fault you there,” Alistair admitted. “But make no mistake, it will not come to that. You know how evil Loghain is! He deserves justice!”
“ ‘Justice,’” Aunn repeated. “I do not think that words means what you think it means.”
Alistair rolled his eyes. “Now you sound like Morrigan. Of course I know what justice means!”
“Not to sound like Morrigan – because believe me, I’m really not trying to – but prove it,” Aunn requested. “What do you think would count as ‘justice’ for Loghain.”
“Having everyone denounce him as a traitor and watching him get his head cut off,” Alistair said promptly. “Preferably by me but I am willing to compromise on that point.”
“Do you really think we’ll have time to deal with his trial before dealing with the Blight?” Aunn asked him. “He’s not without his allies, you know, and a trial would surely divide the nobility.”
“Why would the nobility be divided?” Alistair demanded. “He’s obviously guilty! I mean…he killed Duncan and King Cailan! And he poisoned Arl Eamon!”
“Technically, he didn’t kill them,” Aunn pointed out. “He merely left instead of reinforcing them like he was supposed to do and thus enable the darkspawn to have an easier time killing them. We don’t even know that if he did charge either would still be alive. And he hired Jowan to poison Arl Eamon, which there’s really no proof of so good luck convincing any of the nobles.”
“Now you’re just splitting hairs,” Alistair accused.
“True,” Aunn agreed. “But do you really think the defense will be any less prone to hair-splitting at his trial?”
“Why would he even need a trial?” Alistair wanted to know. “Telling everyone what he did if they don’t already know and I guess finding irrefutable evidence of it or a witness if we must should be more than enough! If we all know he’s guilty, there’s no need to drag things out.”
Aunn shook her head. “See, that’s why I’m not convinced you’re entirely clear on the word ‘justice’ because what you just described sounds a lot like ‘vengeance.’ I’m not judging either way but you really should use the correct word.”
“Sometimes justice is vengeance,” Alistair argued.
Aunn nodded. “Sometimes, yes, but only after there is a trial. I’ll confess that I don’t know how things work with commoners here in Ferelden but there is no way that you can just execute a noble without giving him a trial.” She paused. “Preferably one that the noble is actually present at but I’ve learned that people are willing to compromise on that point.”
“That’s ridiculous!” Alistair protested.
“Ridiculous or not, it is the law and the law is there to protect us unless it gets circumvented by evil siblings,” Aunn explained patiently.
“But he’s evil,” Alistair insisted.
“Then you’ll have to prove that in some form of a legal trial,” Aunn said flatly. She wasn’t quite sure that she believed in absolute evil but Alistair didn’t seem to be big on moral relativism. He’d shown himself willing to look the other way when called upon to do so in the name of being a Grey Warden and stopping the Blight but he’d always been quite put-out about it.
Alistair groaned. “Nobles make everything too damn complicated. Is it any wonder that I don’t want anything to do with…” He stopped, remembering that he hadn’t actually told Aunn about that yet.
Aunn looked at him curiously. “What? Is it any wonder that you don’t want anything to do with what? Nobles?”
Alistair forced a smile. “Y-yes, that’s exactly it. Now, um, I just remembered that I need to talk to Leliana about something very important. We can continue this some other time if you’d like.”
With that, he ran off leaving Aunn to shake her head in confusion as she stared after him.

Yep! I can stop cooking now :innocent:
It's the user 1 (I think) custom color dye from the universal dye kit on Juggernaut. I think it makes him look even more sexy. BTW, he won't kiss if Zev is in the party. And Zev seems very put out by that. So when you get to Eamon's estate in Denerim, there is no pillow time?
I'm crushed.@ Sarah - that was a great read! Split those hairs right down the middle!

Bringing Loghain into the mix is a great idea to tackle this prompt, Sarah. I can see the both talking about that and Aunn being the practical dwarf she is (yes I have semi-read your main story) trying to talk some sense in him. Though as all things Loghain that notion is forsaken with Alistair.
Thanks again for your review of OEaH, though. Great to see that you are still reading it, although not much happens there right now (long DR-plotline is long).
As for the one reviewer accusing me of writing Lenya's and Alistair's RS worse than the one he has with Morrigan, well some people simply lack the patience to wait for the change in such a long story. That doesn't happen overnight after all *shrug* Also I'm not bound to please everyone with it, anyway.
@Cat: Have you accidentally activated Zevran's romance? Alistair only denies to kiss you, when that is the case and Zevran in the party. He is understandably pissed about you smoothing Alistair then.

Sarah, I like that conversation. Especially seeing her side having been betrayed before by her brother. That whole part about what justice is was very on the mark.
