Citadel Nights 💜

Featuring Saskia & Garrus

[a-shakespearean-in-paris]

A Thousand Years

For @briarfox13 for her birthday and Christmas. Features her Saskia and Garrus during the Citadel DLC. Garrus wonders why Saskia dons his clan markings.

“You know sweetie, you don’t have to do that.”

Almost done, Saskia swipes one last stroke of paint across her cheekbone before setting down the brush for her blue paint. From the mirror attached to her vanity, her eyes meet Garrus’s. From her eyes he reads confusion. He reads a little sadness.

Oh shit.

He didn’t want that. Not at all. “Saskia—”

“Do you not like it?”

“Oh no, no of course not,” Garrus says quickly, scratching the back of his neck. He’d never want her to think that. In fact he’s damn flattered, flummoxed, and enchanted.

She wears his markings. She takes something that’s been a part of him for so long it’s faded into the fabric of his being and makes it a part of her own identity.  Blue paint and a small brush have become a permanent fixture in her cabin on the Normandy and now on her vanity in Anderson’s apartment. She can’t be without it. She doesn’t know her face without it.

It was a simple thing. It began some time ago when she first began—right after they found each other again— but he can never quite get over seeing her paint them on as artfully as if she was a born Turian. “Hey uh, sweetie,” he says however, leaning against the doorway to her room. “Are you sure you want to do that? I mean if we’re going to do that first date thing we talked about it sort of doesn’t make since…”

She turns around at her vanity, smiling at him. “I still want to do it. But I don’t feel like myself without this anymore honestly,” she says, gesturing to her markings, skillfully applied. It didn’t take her long to learn at all. He showed her how.

They found more issues for blue paint that same day.

“Saskia…”

She rises, coming to his side. On instinct he wraps his arms around her waist and draws her in. As she throws her arm around his neck they sway back and forth. It’s times like this she’s a great dancer. It’s times like this she floats across the floor, though if tonight goes the way he plans, he’ll make a good dancer out of her yet.

“I love it,” he says, tracing the markings with his finger. “It’s perfect.”

“You’re a part of me Garrus. I want the whole galaxy to know.”

She laughs as he dips her, their lips meeting and parting with more kisses in between. “You’re a part of me too,” Garrus says. “I don’t quite feel like myself without you either. Not sure how I can go back, pretend like we’re in the dark times again before we knew each other and I didn’t know how much I loved you.”

“I believe in you,” she promises with a smile, a faint blush painting her cheeks. “And hey. Once we’re alone, maybe we can find another use for blue paint. Like last night”

He stirs, gripping her hips but leaving it like that, for now. “Oh,” he says, drawing it out. “Now you’re talking. And you know, alone…” He kisses her cheek. “We can pretend like we’ve known each other a thousand years.”

Their foreheads meet. They exchange the same breath. “We have,” Saskia says. “We have.”

He kisses her forehead before he promises to meet her at the bar.
