This is a dream. It has to be. There’s no way he got so lucky in life. After resigning himself to a life of solitude, a life without meaningful connections in favour of freedom it’s impossible that such a thing could happen. It can’t be the reality that out of the whole of Thedas him and Hawke would end up here in Kirkwall and their paths would cross. It’s crazy to think that he could meet someone who managed to ingite a spark in him that he thought he snuffed forever. He’s in love, it’s no use denying it. Hopelessly, irredeemably and forever.
Then when it comes to the list of unlikely events, could he truly believe that he’s actually lying in Honey’s arm while the boat they borrowed gently rocks in the lake? Surely not, these sort of scenes can only happen in romantic novels, likely the type Varric writes. Too cheesy? He’d hardly care for anyone’s judgement. It really truly is perfect.
“ Pinch me. “ He murmurs as he burrows his cheek more into Hawke’s chest, pressing a gentle kiss there, his hair loose and messy as he sometimes shuffles into a different position. “ Actually I know how this will go wrong. One of us moves too quickly and we end up with an overturned boat and soaking wet. “ Craning his neck he looks up at the love of his life and offers a brilliant smile. “ On second thought, that still wouldn’t ruin anything. “
