[ open?? closed? schrödinger's log?? ] heroes always get remembered

[goodforsaken]

WHO: Lex Luthor, assorted guest stars, and YOU??
WHAT: General intro purposes? Get you some arms and armor made, Inquisition! Geek out in the library! Be confused by the incongruous noble all up in the Undercroft!
WHEN: Approximately now - the end of August.
WHERE: Skyhold: the Undercroft + Library + the buffet option
NOTES: Starters in comments. As it stands no warnings are required; I'll edit here a/o subject lines if that changes. Here is Lex's info post for anyone who'd like to run with the idea that they've heard of him/had contact before!

Being possessed of the incredibly informed opinion most not!Orlesians have of Orlais when they've only ever visited and spoken mostly to people wearing silly hats, Lex is more than comfortable with his first forays into the Inquisition taking place in Skyhold and not Halamshiral. That's where he's ultimately most useful anyway; he suffers no illusions regarding any diplomatic capabilities that don't involve ensnaring largeish globs of money.

The day side ....globbage occurs, however, is not this day or, nor is it whatever other days this log ends up involving. No, instead here we are in Skyhold, where Lex's general occupancy encompasses the following:

"I'm not a mage," he points out, shrugging. "So possession doesn't pose a problem, and as far as I can tell beyond that demons die when you cut their heads off, just like anything else."

...it would be great if that were bravado, but it's just. Someone was in line for exceptionally nice hair when other people were being handed sane fear responses. He also apparently just doesn't realize how much that sounds like if push came to shove he'd just cut her head off to be on the safe side. Fortunately (....fortunately??) he goes on to clarify, however inadvertently. "I don't think Rifters are demons. If you were surely you'd have done something other than 'look frequently bemused' before this."

Like. Hopefully. Not that demons are all that known for their organizational prowess.

She tilts her head at him, then says mildly, "Where I'm from, it's kinda bad manners to cut someone's head off in a library. So."

...please don't do that? He doesn't seem likely to, especially given the clarification, but it's hard to tell to what extent (if any) he's kidding.

"I don't know much about demons, but I've seen my genetic structure, so I'm pretty much certain I'm human." ...wait, genetics. Is a thing she will probably need to explain. "I'm Cosima," she adds, rather than go down that rabbit hole farther.
