HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?!

You have isolated your victim to study it at length, seeking to become them. You are nearly satisfied you know your chosen subject, ready to take on its form, leaving the poor soul to rot. You crave bottomlessly to be more, more powerful, more skilled, more inspired, and being them will be so much more interesting.

They will tell you what they think, they will tell you what they feel, they will tell you what they see. Are all these shapes useful? Will they let you know them? Will they tell you more about them?

For you must see more. You have not yet seen enough. You must rise--

"Sure, that's a good point. I would say I wasn't a demon if I was one trying to trick you. But I'd also say it if I wasn't a demon. I mean, going 'yes I am a demon and I have you now mwahaha!' isn't going to convince you I'm not one."

This argument needs some kind of name. The 'demon paradox' maybe. Or the 'it's impossible to convince someone you're not a demon' problem. Which is a problem because he really doesn't know how to prove he's not a demon. Except by just... not possessing the mage in front of him. But that's sort of a long way to go about it.

The whole uncertainty isn't helped by the niggling sense of familiarity Alistair gets the longer he looks at the other man. He's sure he's seen his face somewhere before, but where?

A Ferelden mage, talking about blood magic and possession. It's not exactly unexpected, given what happened at the Circle. Maybe that's it. A survivor from the tower. ...And that reminds him of something that might help prove he's not a demon. Maybe.

"Look, I got trapped in the Fade by a demon once myself and it gave us all these nice dreams so we'd want to stay. Does this look like the sort of thing a demon would try and keep you trapped with?"

Jowan blinks at the question, looks around at their surroundings, taking in the clean brightness of it all, then looks back at the other man. "Yes, actually."

He gestures around at them, indicating everything that they could see and the implied grandeur beyond. "This place isn't a cell in a dungeon and there's no bars to stop me from leaving. If there was a meal here as well, maybe a bath, then this would be exactly like something a demon would create to keep me trapped."

Jowan rubs at his arms absently, and while his stomach has been empty for so long that he doesn't really feel hungry any more, the idea of food does suddenly sound rather good.

"So you can see why I'm not really believing that this isn't too good to be true, can't you?"
