WHO: Warden!Felix and OPEN. (Starters for Kaiden, Bruce, Dorian, Ellana, and Adele. If you want your own starter just ask!)
WHAT: Felix returns after his Joining and looks much better. Also he's hungry. (The Kaidan thread is during training, set before they return to Skyhold.)
WHEN: About a week or two after Felix's Joining.
WHERE: His training took place at the remains of Haven, the rest is at Skyhold.
NOTES: None yet!

Less than a month ago, Felix had been a dead man. Now, he's at least upright. Things aren't prefect. He still has the taint and he has the ever present fact of the False Calling to contend with, but he's not wasting away anymore.

People who had seen him before will know that he's doing better. His cheeks are fuller and he isn't stumbling. He's able to move without aid. Despite the less than perfect circumstances, he thinks it's wonderful. If it weren't for the fact that he was trying to put on a good face as the newest Warden, he might have tried to dance around like an idiot.

He's still acting a bit like an idiot, but rather than dancing he's trying to get food from the kitchens. The servants might be a little annoyed that he keeps pestering them, but at least he knows how to apologize and thank them. He pesters politely which is likely a nice change.

"Not all of them," she says, slowly. "But numerous. I don't know everything about it, but my family has been conscripted for a long time. Once every generation or so. And I am the fifty-third." The fifty-third Abhorsen. That's a weight, a name and burden to carry, because so many have heard of them. There is trust in that name, an exemplory Warden that will be made. It is her title now, but she can't help but feel as if she lets those that came before her down by bearing it. She is proud, absolutely, but their legacy... she is a traitor, as much as it is for the right reasons.

She frowns, then adds, "and whomever is the Warden is the head of the house. That's mine as well, for what it's worth."

Felix looks a little curious about that. "I thought when you began a Warden it meant leaving behind your old life?" A lot of his views about Wardens are colored by his homeland, which has a very odd relationship with the organization, as much as it does with everything else in Thedas.

"And that means you're the head of our house? So a Warden, head of your house, and Council member? Responsibility must really love you." He seems impressed more than anything.
