[ By now, Cullen has figured out the different settings on his phone. Not all of them, but the ones involved with making posts to the network. Thank the Maker for that, because trying to write messages on the bloody thing is a trial and sometimes he just doesn't have the patience for it.

He's sitting on the porch, mostly just his head and shoulders—the latter clad in a simple t-shirt—visible in the video. The bland side of his house makes up the background. Not visible is his mabari, sprawled out at his feet. ]


Pardon the intrusion—[ Using the phone is one thing. Network etiquette is still rather nebulous to him. ]—but I wondered if anyone might have some advice on where I might locate a proper job.

[ His relatively neutral expression dips into a disapproving frown. ]

My current duties are ridiculous and wholly unrelated to my talents. [ The frown smooths out. ] I was the general of a rather large army and have been a soldier for the majority of my life. As a child, I grew up on a small farm. I'm accustomed to being active and prefer it to more idle occupations.

[ He drums the fingers of his free hand against the arm of his chair. He has no idea the protocol for ending communications of this nature. ]

Thank you for your time.

[ Eh, that's good enough. ]

[ If the grin he wears is anything to go by, it's clear some obvious teasing is coming. ]

Oh, I don't know. You're getting paid for doing a task. That seems like a proper job.

I'm sure you can find a farm somewhere, if you want to go for that. You could also try out for the police.

It's like the city guard. I think there's still an ImPort version. It's called RISE, or something?

[ Still grinning like a half-mad man. Not even sorry. ]

Do I? [ He does, he's just being a shit. ] I would think after everything you would be more inclined for a less exciting occupation.

You're welcome!

You're from Thedas? I've got a friend who's from there! Do you know the Iron Bull?

[Max, not everybody from Thedas knows each other.]

Oh, nice! What organization is that? I also know Hawke, but I can't really see her joining an organization.

[Yep. Definitely can't.]

I'm Max! It's nice to meet you. How long have you been here?

[ WOW!!! What kind of crap is this??]

What?! I most certainly did n— [ Dorian cuts himself off abruptly, sucks his teeth and then smiles so serenely. ] Well, then, I imagine he'd be far better company than you, you horrible man.

[ Don't be off-put by the hooded lady grinning at Cullen from the other end of the video feed. Kasumi would recognize that smooth voice and head of golden hair anywhere. She might have held off on responding to the commander's first post, unsure how to respond to yet another person she's met, left, and seen come back without prior memory of this place. But this... this is too good. It reminds her so much of the Cullen she'd met. ]

What's so ridiculous about your current job?

The only Hawke I know is a woman. I'm pretty sure her first name isn't Garrett.

I've almost been here for a year.

[ NO. THIS WILL BE THE END OF THEIR FRIENDSHIP!!!! IS THAT WHAT HE WANTS??? ]

How kind of you, Cullen, to concern yourself with where I'm receiving my affections. As it happens, I need little. In fact I'm rather full up.

She's really nice! And funny. [And also really pretty.]

Sort of. I mean, we don't have floating cars, superhero registration, or evil soldiers who try and brainwash us into doing their bidding.

[ Kasumi doesn't know Leliana, but if she did, the comparison would be one of the most flattering things anyone's ever said about Kasumi, depending on which parts are being compared. ]

Oh, not at all. They put me up as a movie usher when I first got here, long time ago. Free movies were fun and all at first, but...

[ She shrugs. ]

You need to help me out with specifics, though. How is it unsuitable? I might end up suggesting something that's just similar.

[ Mostly she just wants to know what it is. ]

Not that I know of. Some Soviet soldiers kidnapped a bunch of us and stuck us in submarines for awhile. I'm pretty sure they were going to try brainwashing us if not for the rescue.

The second time, they'd infiltrated the government and enrolled us in this creepy seminar. It... wasn't a good experience. [And honestly, she's surprised she made it out without giving in.]
