Anders snorts, feeling the day get much better even with a bear right there. Oghren's alive, and everything is as it was. He shifts to be behind the Dwarf, flinging up a barrier for the both of them before helping make Oghren's taunt a little more literal with a fireball aimed at the animal.

"You've no worries about me stealing the ladies anymore. Not like I think that's going to help you." He's smiling as he says it. He's out in the sun and feeling something like he used to back in the old days of Wardening - like things are simple and he's not constantly walking a tightrope over a pit of spikes. "Go on, ask me why."

The bear howls in pain due to fire and axe, and it is, for once, an entirely secondary matter.
