It's not a bad thing to hesitate before killing someone who still looks like a friend. I think that's normal. The instinct to refrain from hurting someone you care about is right.
... Thank you, Vin. [ ... ] I don't know that I'm normal, particularly. For what it is worth, I think you are a very kind person, and I'm glad to have met you. I do not resent you having received a gift.
[ idk man he cannot be convinced vin is not a good person after this. it in fact feels like a good person pre-requisite to deny the fact. ]
... I am looking to restore myself to life. Shortly before coming here - very shortly - I was bade to sacrifice myself in the name of my goddess. And I somewhat regret the action.
[ oohhh nooooo. holding up his hands quickly, shaking his head. ]
No, please, you are most generous to think of me at all but I will find a solution. There are a great many problems in this place, but one thing it doesn't lack is opportunity. Patience is likely key in my case.
I made a bit of a mistake, and in a bit of an accident I passed onto Karlach the information you had allowed Astarion to tell me, as well. I did not want you to blame Astarion for breaking your trust - it was my mistake through and through, and I felt very badly that you might consider him less trustworthy for something that was entirely my fault.
I, of course, will tell no one else and apologize profusely. It was stupid of me.
Thank you for understanding. Astarion cares for you a great deal, and was quite concerned with my thoughtlessness. So I promised I would apologize for the error.

...Then why do you hesitate?

[ SIGHING. ]
And secondly because she bore the face of my friend. And I know the same was true for you, but I am a weaker man.
no subject
I don't think it makes you weaker.

[ willing to kill for one thing, not for an equal cause seemingly? ]
What do you think they have planned for her?

[a little bit amused despite herself, for whatever reason, but it does seem like she appreciates it.]
Whatever it is you're looking for... I hope you get it, even if it isn't by acting while we're here.

Then... The board. [...] I'll - ask Famine if it can be used twice. I already...

I'm glad you were able to use it already.

Gale... What is your monster?

I don't want you to feel any sort of pressure to return.
no subject
...I keep hoping I'll match with someone that a wish could help. But it hasn't happened yet.
no subject
I think for now, you should focus on staying safe, yes?

Erm, all of this being said, I do owe you an apology.

I assumed if either of you knew, she'd know soon enough, honestly. But... Thank you for telling me.

Yes ... ?

I mean, not that it's... It's only that he's a bit hard to read sometimes. [...] I won't tell him you said anything.
