    Summary

    “Are you okay?”

    Fenris slowly lowers his hand and nods. He opens his mouth even slower. That’s the last thing he thought she’d say, truth be told — but maybe he should’ve expected her kindness, her care, even after everything he’s said to her. Everything he’s done.

    He hates it. He hates her.

    “I… have been thinking of you.” The pitiful, not-nearly-enough words feel caught in his tightening throat — as if the unholy admission is being pulled from him via Hawke’s own blood magic.

    Maybe it is. (Except she’s not cruel. Not in that way. Not with him. Never with him. Even when he deserves it.)

    “I’ve been able to think of little else.”

    It comes out more accusation than he intends.

    Summary

    Years before Rook set off with Varric, or before Lucanis was dragged into the Venatori’s grip, things were simpler. Relatively speaking.

     

    Rook has been busy pining after his brother’s best friend, hiding it poorly behind a string of lovers and sharp smiles.
    Lucanis has spent months pretending not to notice. In between all that so-called not noticing, he’s made it his personal mission to ruin any fun Rook tries to have anywhere near him. Unsurprisingly, that comes crashing down.

    Summary

    "Grief can be a terrible force," Emmrich says. "I daresay Rook knows they may lose more people dear to them yet, before this task before us is through."

    "You know, I think you're right," says Lace. "Sometimes, out of the corner of my eye, the way I see them looking at me… it's like they're checking that I'm still here."

    Emmrich lays a hand on her shoulder. "I hope we suffer no more such losses," he says, "and that when the gods are vanquished, that your friend seems less a stranger."

    ---

    Rook Thorne knows too much and says too little. Their team follows them anyways — but not without questions.
