[Welp, that sudden gnawing of dread now feels like a full-on physical blow to the stomach, thanks Nathaniel!]
...You sure don't pull your punches, do you?
[It's a weak attempt at witticism, a reflex more than anything else, and it's obvious his heart's not in it (because his heart is busy trying to continue functioning despite feeling as though it has stopped).]
When and how? [And a very brief, considering pause - Nathaniel himself looks as though he's been through a warzone.] And are you alright?
[ He waves Hawke off dismissively- obviously he doesn't think it's important, even if he is bleeding in a few places ]
Anders and I were trying to make our way to the clinic. We were... overwhelmed. I'm sorry, Hawke. I really am. This is the second time this has happened. [ And now Nathaniel isn't even with him to make sure he's okay. ]
[He will side-eye Nathaniel at his assurance that he's fine, but will generally take his word for it. He's pretty sure Nate's the sort of guy who will speak up if he truly does need help.]
He seems to have a penchant for getting into trouble like this. Don't blame yourself, Nathaniel.
[Hawke sure doesn't. Anders can be pretty dumb about some things, as Hawke is very, very aware.]
As much as I hate to think about it, I doubt this is the kind of rescue that can be launched after a few hours or so of planning, so don't feel like you need to worry about being left behind.
[Implied: HAWKE WILL BE LOOKING FOR YOU SO YOU HAD BETTER GET RESTED UP REAL GOOD, SERAH.]

I tried to track them as best I could, but their shuttles were heavily guarded. I don't know where they went after that.

[Aaaaaand Hawke starts pacing]
Look, Nathaniel. Take care of your wounds and get some rest. I need to talk to Hawke.
