I am the voice, the first and the last impression. An ambassador isn't always a powerless one. [Independent roleplay of Josephine Montilyet. Set in Inquisition. See links below for more info.]

"My apologies, Ambassador Montilyet, but I’m anxious to hear the results. I have spent too much of my life waiting."

"Unfortunately you might have to spare me a few hours still." Nonetheless, she smiled, offering what comfort she could. "… But I promised results, Solas, and the favors I pulled were large ones."

"I see."

A slight frown pulled at his features. “I trust you to deliver. You have not failed the Inquisition i the past. Exactly how many favours did you have to pull?”

"You need not worry," she assuaged quickly. "Good will come out of it beyond your request. Though I admit, I am... surprised. You did not seem like someone that would need my expertise."

"They will serve adequately, for the moment," she holds her head high, rarely returning smiles. "So this is the state of the Inquisition?"

"For now," Josephine quipped. "However, we all start somewhere. ... As frustrating as it can be. Urgency never gets as far as people expect in politics."

queenofeden:

things that are apparently 100% canon

josie makes everybody attend weekly tea parties

leliana curses in orlesian when she’s frustrated/upset

cullen is intimidated by leliana

basically everybody in the entire inquisition, with the exception of josephine and maybe cassandra, is intimidated by leliana

leliana helps sera with her pranks, but like, only on the down low

kieran picked out morrigan’s ball gown

both leliana and morrigan definitely remember the ‘red velvet dress’ conversation

josephine wears frilly underthings???

"Oh, Inquisitor!" she smiled upon seeing the dwarf, momentarily returning the quill to the ink pott to focus on her. "I was hoping you would have a moment to spare?"

[antivan-heart-blog]

-she chuckles lightly- You’ll have to forgive me then for not trying again, just once. Leliana has told me much of your exploits in Ferelden. 

Still, I would like to return the favor by offering what comforts we can during your stay. Or, at least, a place with good ale.

[couslxnd]

       She tends to exaggerate. From what I remember she’s enjoyed        making up a little story now and then.        Oh, no thank you. I don’t really partake. You needn’t worry so much        honestly, I will be gone far before the sun falls I would think I can find        a comfortable spot before I succumb to the cold.

[antivan-heart-blog]

Most ex-bards tend to, though to her credit, we have bigger liars among the circle. -she frowns and seems ready to admonish the man- Please. You could do far better here than a make-shift shelter for the evening.

If you're worried about questions, I can ensure some discreet.

[antivan-heart-blog]

-she passes a knowing glance-

Somehow, I am not very surprised to hear that. Nonetheless, I would like to keep word of this place positive. It tends to make my job easier later.

If I may ask, is supplies the only reason you came to Skyhold?

[couslxnd]

       Well, I don’t think you need to do much convincing for me, ma’am.        I assume you’d like me to stay and help, yes? I recall sending your        Inquisitor a letter with my reasons for not being able to assist. I’m sure        you’d all be aware if I was here for more than small things.

Easily, I could point you to it. -she moves around him quickly, easily with a gracious smile- I’m also a bit of a… representative here. If you have any questions, or perhaps, something more… complicated, I’m happy to help.

[couslxnd]

       [ His head turns with her as she moves around him, straining his neck        before he adjusted himself. A smile for a smile was always the way he        usually went though. ]               Well, I don’t think you need to worry about me causing much of a               fuss. I’ll most likely be out of everyone’s hair before they know it.

Ah. You— -she pauses, as if speechless- … What can I do for you?

[couslxnd]

       —Hm.               Sorry, I’m not familiar with this place yet. Merely here for some               supplies. What is it you can do for me?
