Day 4: Confidence and Insecurity ||

The Great Pretender

Dorian took another large swallow of wine straight from the bottle of Vint-9 he'd stolen from Skyhold's cellars. He couldn't believe how utterly stupid he'd been, how weak, how needy, how... trusting.

Kadan my ass, he grumbled before giving a choked growl as a tear tracked down his cheek. As if it had actually meant something, as if it were real. Said in earnest, not jest and he'd eaten it up as though it was made of the most precious gold. Fool, he berated himself for the hundredth time this evening. Stupid, needy, foolish, weak fool.

He leaned back against the cold stone wall of the tower he'd fled to and stared up into the sky at the multitide of stars. Skyhold was such a romantic place despite the threat to the world, or perhaps because of it. It had certainly cast a spell on him. Lulling him into a sense of security and safety so strong he'd let not only his guard drop, but his common sense as well. How had he convinced himself a Qunari felt anything for him? Was he really that blind or had he purposely ignored it all?
