Man, these lighthouse conversations are endless. :P I was about to go kick off on Bellara's loyalty mission and realized there's ANOTHER exclamation point on the map - this one with Davrin... and Assan and Manfred. XD This'll be good.

Poor Davrin is having a long day, it seems, as Assan and Manfred are having a very loud conversation.

"(suspicious squawk)"

"(equally suspicious hiss)"

"Okay, that's enough."

"(SQUAWK!)"

"(HISS!)"

"Quiet now!"

"(LOUD SQUAWK!)"

"(LOUD HISS!)"

Poor Davrin. Eventually he falls back on the approach used by pet owners everywhere, which will absolutely not backfire on him in the slightest:

"Fine. Who wants a treat?"

"Me! I want one!" says Helena, wandering in, because she is a little shit at heart even in the apocalypse.

"Well..." Davrin smiles ruefully. "I don't have one."

Helena ducks her head and does the saddest set of eyes she can muster. "Aw, why'd you get my hopes up?"

"A little white lie to quell the riot," Davrin says dryly.

She raises an eyebrow at him. "Are you sure it's little to them?"

Evidently not. Assan and Manfred look at each other for a moment and then burst into a cacophany of demanding hisses and squawks, flailing about in agitation.

"Yeah, Davrin!" Helena grins and gives her arms a quick mock-dramatic flail as well. "Where's my treat?!"

Davrin groans. "Come on, guys," he mumbles. "Give me a break. Rook..."

She knows, she shouldn't, but she can't help it; the slight silliness of the moment is a relief she desperately needs.

(A/N: This was glorious. XD Poor Davrin; Helena really is being a little shit here, but Bryony Corrigan went full voice on some hisses and squawks, and I love that for her. XD )

She squawks loudly at Assan, receiving an enthusiastic squawk in return, and then hisses at Manfred, who hisses back and waves his arms in a conversational fashion. Out of the corner of her eye, she can see Davrin smack his palm into his face, and she gives him a mock-innocent grin.

"What are we all saying?"

He rolls his eyes. "Well, it isn't 'Be quiet'!"

She snickers. "Sorry. It's all I've got!"

As she turns to amble towards the door, she hears him sputter behind her, "Wait, you can't just leave me with--" But the rest of the sentence is drowned out by more squawking and hissing.

"Good luck with that!" Helena says cheerfully, and then she's gone.

As an asexual, I was very much into Davrin's reluctant-dad troupe. But then his romance turns into hunter/prey dynamic, and I hard 180 noped out of that and into Bellara.😅

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐘 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐌 𝐎𝐅 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐒' 𝐅𝐎𝐆 shrouds the city's towers and arches like a worn cloak, draping over spires whose beauty seems forever dulled by the circumstances that have both brought & kept her here. the seemingly-ever present cadence of rain against the crowded streets threatens to lure her into its rhythm, and while it's hardly the rain pattering onto the ivy tangled outside her window far to the south, it's familiar enough to feel like a balm. sidri turns her gaze from the doorway to face the interior of the pawn shop and gathers her shawl once more around her shoulders. ❝ never thought i'd trust a man with a name like the viper, ❞ she muses quietly to the elf examining the menagerie of items gilding the shelves, lifting her chin towards rook conversing with him across the room, ❝ but he's one of the few good snakes. ❞

he's built strong, this elf, broad and muscled in a way that reveals clear discipline, purpose. it's always struck her as odd that, even for their mournful doom, that inevitable sorrow, every grey warden she has ever met has seemed brimming with life. she offers a small smile. ❝ davrin, isn't it? rook mentioned you when last they were here, said you're a warden. ❞

her gaze traces the curve of an ear and her lips purse together briefly, thoughtfully. she's never been good with these words, always feels so clumsy when it comes to talk of gods and the sacred, inadequate against the vast tapestry of the world, but if nothing else she has always endeavored to at least speak sincerely. ❝ i imagine it all must be a shock, learning the truth of gods. i learned a long time there's usually nothing behind all those altars, just empty, ugly spaces where the rituals are supposed to reach to. ❞ @abyssflown

Davrin: it took me months to get the layout of Weisshaupt but it was still home

Me: months to get the layout of a single fortress? Not even I am that bad at navigating

Also me: *getting lost in that rivain fortress over and over again* yeah this’ll take me months
