Farkas won't stop talking to me
as in title.

I just walked out of Dragon's reach after taking some stuff from his quarters for enchanting. Needed some random clothes from someone with good disposition.

While inside, I accidently stole a poison, but put it back because this character doesn't roll that way. I wasn't seen, and didn't accrue any bounty. But now Farkas keeps talking to me and initiating the training dialogue for heavy armor.

According to some wiki talk, it sounds like he's flagged as a guard and he's trying to initiate arrest, but like I said I have no stolen items in my inverntory or bounty. How can I stop him from doing this constantly?

Is there a way to take away the guard flag without causing other side effects? or a way to make him ignore crime? or just another fix anyone knows of?

Tried loading an earlier save?

I'm in the act of going back through recent saves to see where he does it, but I think my furthest back save already has the stolen and dropped poison mishap.

EDIT: got to the last of them. Yeah, he's doing it in all of them.

EDITEDIT: after some more investigation, Falkreath decided to place a 4500 gold bounty on my head. I literally don't know why. I have only ever been there in passing, but that's probably causing Farkas to freak out. I guess word travels fast. sorry for starting thread on something that took such a short time to solve.

The same damn thing happened to me with Vilkas.

So I killed him.
Never a bad question , except the one never asked.

Go outside, hit a guard and resheath your weapon. Pay your fine and hopefully your problem with Farkas will be fixed.

Unofficial patch deals with this. Hell, I thought an official patch fixed this one... This is OOOOOLLLLD.

An arrow to the knee might help

Yes I had that problem with farkas and vilkas(where do they get those names!). I got vilkas killed, but farkas wouldn't die(I took away his weapons, and set follower on him). But if you have the keys to someones house who died, take him there as a follower, then tell him to stay. Never return!
