And so the joyous wyvern ran,
Over the field and through the wood,
Until she reached her long-missed cave
And thought, "yes, this was good."

Unless the requirements have increased without my knowledge, yes. I am still seeing someone.

Good.

I still need to meet that guy. It's the same guy, right?

[and shovel talk his ass]

Gale. Yes, of course.

That reminds me. I asked the network thing if there's a word for like. How you feel about people.

[SURELY YOU MISSED THAT RIGHT]

That was not necessary.

[He was busy watching videos of rusty cutlery restoration, give him a break.]

I know. I just.

It helped me to have a word for what I am. How I feel. It helped to know there is a word so that means there are more people out there like me.

I thought it might help you too.

...well, I am used to being different, at this point. It's alright if there isn't a word for it.

Yeah. Okay.

You just - don't have to feel like you're the only one all the time. About everything.

Mm. Well that is one thing that it is difficult to not feel that way about, here.

I dunno. I bet there are other people here who are - demisexual. Like you. Just because they don't talk about it doesn't mean they aren't there.

...oh.

[He repeats the word under his breath.]

So it is not uncommon, you think?

I dunno about common? But I don't think it's really super rare either. It's common enough that there's a word for it that a bunch of people knew.

Hm.

Thank you, Taash.

Yeah.

And - hey. Your guy Gale. He's really lucky.

So am I. More than I deserve.

[Incredulous grunt.]

Hey. Don't. Even if you did have to earn it - you know what you did for Thedas. You deserve to be happy.
