Another night of wicked grace at the hanged man, Everyone was here; definitely since it was snowing outside. Nothing warms the bones better than some awful Ale and mead. Fenris was currently raging with the abomination about oppression, as always, while Isabela and Merrill were busy playing a simple game of cards.What he wants1 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
"Surprised? Why is that?" I smirked, crossing my arms and leaning back in my chair, the wood creaking under my weight. "You should know I am quite the catch, Varric, and so is Fenris." Fenri

DA A slow rainy day Just recently, things in Kirkwall have gone from bad to worse. Not only are the knight-commander and Orsino biting at each other's heels like rabid dogs, Danarius has picked up his pace with the pursuit of a certain Teventer fugitive. Fenris was strong, brave and as unmovable as a wall, but one thing he wasn't, was prepared.DA A slow rainy day2 years ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
It could have been just another day; the clouds were rolling in; bringing the sweet smell of rain into the dusty streets of the city of chains. Yet, something was off. The letters were piling up on my desk, all seeming to deal with the increase of missing elves from the alienage. I grumbled and rubbed my brow. "Elves a

No light, no sun, just bliss.
Of course, that's not the only reason this moment right now is so blissful.
The small man beside me groaned in his slumber, his back curled as he leans against my broad shoulder. Fenris is still here, sleeping as if he was at his own estate. He never stays over, never. He always makes up some reason to go back to his estate, I don't press the matter, the house is one thing he owns; one thing he can

"Love, What is it?" I see his lip curl slightly before he turns to me.
"The nobles are testing my patience, Hawke. Deal with them now or I will." Alrighty then! I hold up my hands.
"I'll take care of it, take the boys inside for a while." His fingers graze over my arm.

Father complex part 3 (short)It takes quite a bit of scrubbing to get them back to their natural skin colors. You'd never expect Dondon to be a cute little blonde boy. Sehron clearly came from the hotter climates or the Imperium, his skin was akin to Fenris'; a darker shade, while Don seemed to come from the cities. I doubt either of them would be able to tell us where they came from. I don't want to push such things. I lift Sehron out of the water and carefully put him on his feet. He shivers and it catches Fenris' attention. He squints and looks at the boys back for a good second before looking at me.Father complex part 3 (short)9 months ago in Short Stories More Like This

Black depthsIt was a simple mission to the coast, one that shouldn't have had any problems; no risks no scares. The water was pitch black, waves roaring against the dirty shore and Cliffside. A storm was coming, bearing its teeth from the sea. It was only Me, Fenris, Anders and Varric, searching for some lost knapsack or something ridiculous. The wind was harsh, constantly blowing my fur hood over my head.Black depths1 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
Fenris tugged it down every time, relishing in the simple contact. "Perhaps we should leave? This storm is about to get worse, and I would enjoy going home dry." He seemed unaffected by the wind, it merely swirled his silver locks in his face.

I was young, maybe about five or six when I casted my first spell, a simple one, warming a cup of tea for mother.

Lothering was in its prime, people worked the good life and got a good days pay, I just wish I had enough years to enjoy it.

He put his hand on the door knob, as if he was going to walk out, "Do you really want to walk out with my mother out there?" she asked, "I'm in my underclothes. Wouldn't that be a fun thing to explain?"
The elf froze, "Get off," he said, his voice low. He flipped around, trying to grab her, but she wrapped her legs around his waist

"Ah Maker." He gave a grunt and sat up. His injuries had healed quite a bit these last few days, now they were merely puncture wounds that had scabbed over. The flesh still stung if stretched or prodded but nothing the ex-slave hadn't endured before in previous battles. He scratched his head to relieve the knots that had formed through his hair.
