No, seemed like perfectly honest confusion. [He's sticking to that story as well. He knows sarcasm when he hears it, he just doesn't care if the so-called-King was being serious or not. Two can play at this game.]

I certainly hope he was joking, for Ferelden's sake. Not like I care that much otherwise. He kicked me and mine out of his kingdom anyway. The only faith I have in anything these days lies with the Inquisition.

[He chuckles softly.]

I may have not recognized him at first and insulted his looks. That would be how we haven't exactly gotten off on the right foot. I assure you, had I known he was King I would have at least attempted to use a filter. Though to be fair, he's not King here. And he's not my King.
