"You're a remarkably good sport about it." Her lips twitch upward and she extends both her hands to catch his, turning it palm-down so she can take a look at the bloodied knuckles there. "I'm guessing bar fights aren't entirely out of the norm, then?"
In another town she'd offer to heal it. It's a wonder just how much she can get away with—batted eyelashes here and a well-told lie there and she's all too often escaping any unwelcome attention to her behavior, or the few brief bursts of magic she can muster. But she's learned that fucking around in Kirkwall is typically a bad idea: quiet observation of the city has made it clear that the Templars here rather enjoy the power they hold over mages, and that apostates are treated with a particular cold that she doesn't remember in Ferelden.
Lowlanders, she thinks derisively. It's enough to make her wish she stayed in the Frostbacks, sometimes. Astoria withdraws a handkerchief from one of the pockets of her coat and dabs gently at the blood dripping down his fingers, trying not to reopen any of the healing wound or cause unnecessary pain, more than a bit unnerved by the sheer amount of blood that no one seems to mind drying on the floor and tables of the Hanged Man.
"I'm wondering if you can help me." She releases his hand when she's cleaned up what she can, and she leans forward with a conspiratorial grin. "I'm not from around here." Not that she's bothering to try and hide it; her style is distinctly Fereldan, and her accent is identifiable enough as Avvar, should one know of them. "In fact, I'm here as a favor to my father, on behalf of the City of Amaranthine. And I could use a guide. Or a guard. Perhaps both. And when I asked around in Hightown, anyone who answered me did so very quietly, and I heard your name quite a bit. Any chance you're looking for a bit of extra gold?"
And her grin widens, bares perhaps too many teeth, as if to give the impression that guarding her won't be a particularly easy job.

WILL THEY, WON’T THEY RELATIONSHIP PROMPTS | ACCEPTING
Garret is right; it’s freezing. Their journey has just started, though. They won’t reach Kirkwall anytime soon. As long as everyone arrives SAFE, though, Allys won’t complain too much. She just wants everyone to be at ease. She’s even pressuring herself of doing so; that’s what Leandra wants from her. She feels it in her bones.
“Thanks, brother, but what about you ?” she asks, offering him a warm smile. “You can keep your jacket. I’ll be fine.”

❛ we’re more ghosts than people. ❜
Elissa fiddled with the rim of her cup while she contemplated what her fellow Warden had just said for a moment. Bracing one boot on the edge of the table, she pushed back, tilting and balancing her chair on its back legs.
"True enough, I suppose. Though there are worse things to be."

13 M/M
Breathless whimpers and moans escaped the young boy as he felt the other man's wet muscle slide from the tip of his dick all the way to his hole between his meaty and bubbly cheeks. Garrett had been a prisoner in his family's dungeons after being caught trying to attack some of the other high ranking individuals. But Toby's curiosity had led him to the dungeons. Which soon? Landed him in the cell...On his hands and knees like some harlet. Breathless whines and whimpers escaped the young man's plush lips as he arched back into the other man's face. "F-Fuck...Please...Need more..." Toby whined and begged with pure need and desire.

[SPLASH]
[SPLASH] - sender surprises receiver by splashing them from the pool/ocean
━━━━━━━✾✾✾ On a resplendent summer afternoon, wherein sun beams down upon the planet, assembling a kaleidoscope of colors as it reflects off the ocean’s surface, she finds herself standing at the shore’s perimeter. Lazuline spirals tenderly caress her feet, persuading her to wade deeper into its unperturbed embrace. Sea breeze whispers sweet nothings in her ears, as the symphony of crashing waves & seagulls’ laughter serves as a splendid setting for her coastal sojourn.
She marvels at the immense continuum of azure before her & persists blissfully unaware of the mischievous plot being concocted by her companion. Camouflaged in the shadows, he weaves his hex, clandestinely summoning the very ocean’s essence. Saltwater surrenders to his caprices, contorting & twisting, ascending to form a monumental, undulating wave. In a moment that seems to lengthen for eternity, gargantuan wave towers over her, heaving its shadow on the unsuspecting maiden. Yet, just as the ocean’s wrath prepares to unleash itself upon her, it halts in mid-air, sailing like a curious cloud. A split second later, the watery behemoth descends upon her, drenching Orihime from head to toe in a deluge of saltwater & laughter.
Inoue, caught off guard, stands dampened, flabbergasted by the impact of the tidal surprise. Her ivory garments cling to her frame like a second dermis, painting a whimsical portrait of a water nymph. Faltering and blinking away the droplets that stubbornly cling to her eyelashes, peers around in search of the mastermind behind this impish adventure.
Caramel hues land upon him, whose laughter dances upon the current like the playful notes of a flute. The sight of her soaking form proves to be a charming mirth’s source, as his optics twinkle with the pridefulness of a prank well-executed. ❝ Very humorous, very comic indeed! Will you give me your clothes? ❞ Hailing her grandeur, damsel decides to embrace the unforeseen turn of events. With a swan’s monarchical elegance, she parades towards the ocean, her laughter joining his in a resplendent duet. @hismettle
