[Felix feels this weird sort of anger towards this man who would use such a wonderful person, but he doesn't express it more than a soft frown and a tightening of his jaw. After all, he doesn't possess Ellana, it's not his job to rage about things from her past.
All he can do is to prove he won't be a repeat of that in her present.]
He sounds like a real piece of work. [He says, unable to hide all of his displeasure.] And having experienced that, I can understand why you're nervous about getting in with other man.
A man from Tevinter would add to it, I'd imagine. Given the reputation my countrymen have for treating elven women like property. [A small pause, as he reaches out and rubs her back a bit, just at the shoulders to comfort her.] I can promise I'm not like that, but actions matter far more than words. Just know I do not expect that of you, and will wait until you're ready.
[He can relate to feeling used for sex, though his story is much different. He might share that with her eventually, but now he wants to focus on her.]
