Maybe they're not fond of the sand. They do like to keep things clean here.
[it's almost disturbing how white everything is.]
Although I'm not sure why it's even here.

At least this one I don't mind.
[in fact, he's going to shift a little closer, leaning on Hawke now.]

That sounds like a good idea.
[he wouldn't mind spending an entire afternoon here with Hawke, not at all. And maybe the he'd be up for swimming a bit more, too.]
Hairball fell asleep, by the way.

[Hawke glances over at the little dog...oh, wow, she's probably got at least a pound of sand sticking to her wet hair. That's going to be fun to clean up. But she sure does look cute, asleep with her head on her little paws...!]
She sure did.
[If Anders was expecting him to protest the nickname, he'll be disappointed. Hawke had long ago learned there was little point, as Anders had demonstrated so thoroughly with Champion.]
I guess that means we can't leave yet.
[What a flimsy excuse...]

Your life revolves around her needs.
[teasing, because he does want to stay.]

If you can't stop and take a little time to let the puppy sleep, what can you stop to make time for?
[That's a rhetorical question, btw; he doesn't expect an answer.]
There was a river just outside of Lothering where Father taught us to swim. Carver and I would swim there a lot in the summer when we were younger.

What was Lothering like?
[he doesn't remember asking these questions before okay.]

Muddy.
[He says this with a smile. And it's okay, Hawke doesn't mind answering Anders' question. <3]
Quiet. Peaceful. Town was full of farmers and travelers and dogs, and the farms were full of crops, wheat and barley and vegetables and fruit...
[Give him a second here, wallowing in nostalgia...]
...Well, until the Blight came, at any rate.
[Okay, done with nostalgia.]

[he's not a native Fereldan, after all, though he's been through his share of villages on the run.]

He must have been lucky to make it out at all.
[wow sudden serious topic.]
I imagine it didn't take them long to rebuild, though. That's one thing you can say about Fereldans.

Wet dog at the moment.
