"I like Morrigan. She sets my teeth on edge sometimes, since...no human should talk like they know more about elves than other elves do. But she shares her information willingly, as far as I can tell."

Or maybe, Pel thinks, she is totally misled about Morrigan. Maybe she only shares a fraction of what she knows, and Pel assumes she shares everything just because she shares, period.

"You like--?" Alistair repeats. Never mind the rest of it. He'll grab hold of this; old habits, old patterns, requiring very little effort but enough thought that he doesn't think about other things. "Pel, I thought you were sensible. I trusted you. I feel so betrayed."

"What? I can't like you and Morrigan both?"

"No," Alistair says. "Absolutely not. Ask her; she'll agree."

"A pity. What's wrong with Morrigan?"

[byblow]

"What isn't?"

Her mother is a dragon she asked them to kill. She turns into spiders and does blood magic sex rituals. She spent the entire year of the Blight comparing him unfavorably to dogs and toadstools.

She's done well by Kieran.

"She's not so bad," he says, relenting, with a sideways glance, "if you like coldhearted imperious know-it-alls who may kill you in your sleep. I guess it's down to taste."

"She's incredibly arrogant," Pel allows, "but I've been able to work with her. Emphasis on work, by the way. We have a similar field. But don't worry, I'll protect you from her."
