Skyhold seemed darker and lonelier when it rained. The Keep emptied out and the yard quickly became deserted, as if everyone suddenly had somewhere far better to be. Inquisitor Trevelyan wished she too had somewhere better to be, something better to do. It had been pouring almost non stop for the past two days. Rain always made her sullen and plunged her into such deep thoughts that she hadn't left her room for the better part of the storm.
Her mind wandered from subject to subject. Ordinary things like why does it rain? Who decided masks were so great that all of Orlais should wear them at all times? and other random things flitted in and out. The Inquisition and Corypheus remained planted in the back of her mind, slowly becoming more and more demanding. The Iron Bull, however, dominated her thoughts more than ever.
She didn't know what she she felt for him. Love? Lust? Infatuation? Desire bred purely from curiosity? In the hours she'd spent going ‘round and ‘round on it, she still hadn't decided. She'd thought she had narrowed it down to love or lust, but neither word felt right. All she knew was that she was stuck on him. He was always in her head and she could swear she was in his.
