          Usually Zevran would leave immediately after a kill. Quick and simple, kill them so they fell in a way that also took care of the body. But it was not always so clean or simple. Zevran had been tracking this particular Crow for only a few hours, a much shorter time than he was used to. This man had been his target.

          Zevran reached down, twisted his dagger into the Crow’s neck, and then pulled it out with a slick crunch. One less Crow.

          His attention turned to the Archon.

          “I am afraid I do not know the proper address for the Archon of Tevinter, but rest assured that I have no intentions of,” he paused, taking a moment to look down the Archon’s body, and he continued his tone was slightly huskier, “harming such a handsome man.” Zevran stepped towards the balcony, the light shining across the skull of the crow helmet he wore. One hand came up, grasped the beak, and pulled it up.

          Beneath the skull was a sly grin carved on bronze features, a tattoo curving around his cheekbones. “That would be a crime no Maker could forgive. My only target was the man who was hired to kill you.” He gestured behind him, the dead body now still. “However, if you are inclined to express gratitude, I certainly will not stop you.”

        Dorian pauses, and then lifts an eyebrow, clearly appalled. “You ‘save’ my life, and then you proposition me? Part of me is shocked, and a small part of me expected that,” he grumbles, and with his magic, he lifts the body up and proceeds to send it over the balcony ledge, down into the abandoned yard. It lands directly on a hedge, and the body bounces off of the hedge and hits the ground. It seems like a practiced motion, like he’s used to dumping bodies with his magic in random locations, “They’ll find him eventually, I’m sure.”

       “...Regardless, as for the proper address, you may call me Archon Pavus for now,” he says, clearly distrusting the man (as evidenced by his facial expression, anyways). Despite his distrust, he stays where he is on the balcony, eyes raking over the other man. “I had heard him, you know. That was why I spoke. Had he not replied, I fully intended to turn around and incinerate him. He is not the first, and will not be the last to attempt to kill me. As popular as I am in certain departments, I am equally unpopular in others.”

    Dorian wasn’t exactly the most observant person, but it wasn’t like he paid no attention to his surroundings. He was more observant than most others from Tevinter, but compared to someone trained in all of that rogue-ery nonsense? He wasn’t very good.

     But, he was still good enough to detect a presence somewhere behind him, only if because his magic instinctively flared. “I’ve come here for one moment of silence, I would ask you to make that silence longer and bother me later with any questions or concerns you may have,” he lazily drawls, and it’s only until he hears the slight noise of a dagger cutting through the air that he turns and casts a rather unneeded barrier spell, since the dagger wasn’t mean for him. The person he presumes he detected falls to the ground with a solid thump,  their weapon falling with a violent clang. The dagger is embedded in their neck, and they’re quite unattractively choking on their own blood. “Well, that’s absolutely lovely. It’s not a party unless someone dies, I suppose. I’d ask you not attempt my life, however, since an attempted assassinated of the Archon is usually never met well, and as I get on in age, one death is more than enough for me per week, and we’re already up to four,” he says, directing his words to whoever threw the dagger, unable to see them in the dark room from the lighted balcony.

It was the first time Dorian had been out of Tevinter in near three months due to a simply outstanding amount of audience requests that he absolutely could not put off, and to say he was relieved was a major understatement. As it was, he found himself back at Skyhold, even if half of the Inquisition (save for the need-to-knows) had no idea he was there. With an amused snort, he moves from his place across the building to a seat at the bar, next to a woman. He turns his head, and the corners of his lips raise into a pleasantly surprised smirk. “Why, Champion, I’m relatively shocked that I would see you at Skyhold of all places. Social call, perhaps?”

How to deal with unfair treatment

If someone treated you in a really unfair way, it’s important not to get swallowed by all those negative feelings. Especially in the RP community, people are often insecure and hurtful because they know they can hide behind a role and a screen. Instead of confronting others about something that bothers them, they simply start ignoring you, or block you so you never have the chance to talk to them again. Here is what can help you to not crumble after realizing someone has done that (or something similarly unfair) to you:

Intervention. Get away from the pc. Put your phone down. You need to leave that space where you got hurt for at least a few minutes.

Nutrition. When have you last eaten? Been a few hours? Go eat something. It desn’t have to be much.

Hydration. Have a cup of tea. It helps you stay hydrated and on top of that, it really calms your neves. You can buy something that has lavender in it just for moments like these - to reduce stress.

Distraction. Play a video game. Tidy up your room and listen to music. Sing along. Yes, it can be an aggressive tune if that helps you get the hurt out of your system.

Communication. Talk to someone. It’s even better if you’ve calmed down a little already, but it can also help to talk to someone before you start to panic. Let someone comfort you and give you feedback on the situation.

Fresh Air. Go for a walk. If your heart rate is high from panicking, your body can get it under control by moving like running or walking fast. The fresh air will make you feel better, too.

Be nice to yourself. I know it’s hard, especially if someone else wasn’t nice to you at all. Light a scented candle, smell your favorite fragrance, eat your favorite candy, get yourself a blanket, turn on your favorite decoration lamp. Anything to change the mood.

Relaxation. Take a hot shower. Take a nap. Listen to a meditation. Or go to bed early. Panicking and realizing you’ve been wronged are incredibly draining. Try and keep your energy level from dropping too drastically.

Get rid of reminders. The next day, you need to get rid of the messages. If someone deleted you on a messenger, delete them, too. There is no point in hoping they’ll come back and keeping them until then. They won’t come back. Don’t torture yourself by seeing their name all the time.

Remember why you’re here. Something made you start this blog. Are the reasons still the same? Yes? No? Doesn’t matter. If it’s still worth it, keep going! If not, don’t torture yourself and move on to something that makes you happier.

realtalk for a second.

if you stress someone out, hurt them so bad to where they get anxiety attacks every time they see you, hear your name, read your name, or even see anything related to you? shame. on. you. you ought to feel bad. no person deserves that. ever. 

and don’t you dare turn it around on them, if everything they have is founded. don’t you dare.

What if Cole had found one with little wheels?

Screen cap from blooverarmor

[ This is so cute but what if this this stemmed from something massive in Dorian’s childhood? What if, throughout his years of abuse etc, this was the first gift he’d ever been given? A childhood lover (when he realized he’d liked boys) or a loving mentor that could have been a father replacement, had given him a wooden duck with wheels? What if this was crazy significant for Dorian and, though he acts nonchalant NOW, he teared up a little upon seeing it? What if his father had destroyed that toy and ever since he’d desperately wanted it back but could never find one, and that’s why Cole was so aware of it, since it was so crucial to Dorian? Ehh I mean idk but??? ]

“Then inform me of the quickest way to bore you, archon.”

[notquiteamagister]

“Die.”

[rxdpainted-deactivated20170328]

“Tch.” He looked away, hips swaying mockingly as he fell onto the man’s grand bed. “So you say. But I don’t plan on hanging around for the length of time I’m sure that’s going to take.” He rolled his eyes, then looked straight at Dorian. “If you even succeed.”

[notquiteamagister]

“Plans don’t always go as wanted, I’m afraid. Face it, you aren’t getting out of here until I either get bored of you or until reformation is finished.”
