He has no idea if his attempt worked or not. Reading people is something he's decent at, but Anders can't actually work on it right now. There's no telling what sort of things she's looking for and she is the head of intelligence for the Inquisition.
But she may be willing to let it go, thankfully. And she's not even bothered by Hero of Purrelden's name. Maybe this won't be so painful after all.
"It takes a certain sort of bravery to go up against the things that skitter and crawl. Especially when they're as large as your leg." The cat makes an attempt at wrapping her paws around Leliana's finger so she can try gnawing on the tip of it. Anders doesn't try pulling the kitten back - if it serves as a distraction, so much the better.
"I was. I went along to heal him. And be the voice of reason that everyone ignored when the monstrous... thing burst out at us and the corpses started moving again." There are three Grey Wardens who traveled with the Hero here, actually. But Alistair is remembered for good, Nate forgotten, and Anders remembered for ill. And if Anders says anything, it'll just be more trouble.
Nate deserves better, though. He hopes the judgment in his voice is read as aimed at those who wanted more injuries, rather than at the woman who has just overlooked one of his dearest friends. "No one's content with a glyph of paralysis when you've qunari who can charge putrid, oversized creatures."
