     The Templar, Lysette, was very kind, even trying not to stare at Saarebas’     scars as she led her into the keep. Saarebas’ heart beat quickly, anxiety     tightening up her muscles until she feels they might snap. What’s the worst     that can happen? She doesn’t think the Inquisitor is in the business of     beheading people who want to help...but she was Tal-Vashoth, and Saarebas     was...well, she had hunted down Tal-Vashoth and killed plenty of them with     Arvaarad. Still, the Inquisitor doesn’t know that. Not yet. And the Qunari had     pointed her quickly in the direction of Skyhold when they’d met on the road.     She doubts that she remembers her. 

    At her sides she tightens her fingers into fists, holding tight until her nails     dig into her skin, then flexing her palms open. It was the closest thing to     nervous fidgeting she could do when she’d been bound, and the habit had     stuck. The great hall isn’t packed, but there are more people there than     Saarebas would like. Sucking in a breath the minute her eyes spot the     Inquisitor, she glances quickly to Lysette, who seems oblivious to her.

attraction meme || Inbox me a ‘ღ’ and I’ll rate you with the following:

Romantic attraction: none | very low | low | medium | high | very high | extreme

In the Inquisition verse, Cullen is recovering from a lot of things, including a fair number of disastrous and quite dysfunctional relationships he had in Kirkwall. Alina has some potential for becoming a LI, as I think he would click better with strong muses who challenge his beliefs and have no fears of speaking their mind. 

Sexual attraction: none | very low | low | medium | high | very high | extreme

She is an attractive woman, of course, Cullen would not deny it, but unless he gets involved emotionally, he would hardly think about her in that way.

Aesthetic attraction: none | very low | low | medium | high | very high | extreme

As I said, she’s beautiful, and he acknowledges it. 

Sensual attraction: none | very low | low | medium | high | very high | extreme

Their interactions, so far, have been mostly formal. As I have already mentioned, he pays a lot of attention to boundaries.  

+Platonic attraction: none | very low | low | medium | high | very high | extreme

{ I was on a date with my boyfriend and the waiter brought us wine samples and we both looked at her and was like "lol we're both 19, not 21" so I guess I look older then I actually am?? }

[ ❢ ] my muse discovers yours all bloodied and bruised.

It was four in the morning, and he’d just finished covering a double shift for a sick coworker. His daughter had school in the morning, and he was her ride. He didn’t have the time to deal with beat-up strangers in side alleys.

But he still stopped walking less than half a block past the alley, and backtracked to it.

The man shrugged off his backpack (a colorful, color-changing sequin covered thing borrowed last-minute from his daughter) and dropped it to the ground just off the street before approaching the figure slumped over on the asphalt. At first, he’d just thought they were drunk…but up close, he could see the blood staining their clothes, and hear their pained gasping.

Oh, he was too tired to deal with this…

Cheating again! Hehehehe

The elf offered a small smile, laughter dancing in her eyes, “You are most welcome, Sir Cullen. I apologize for any rude behavior I might have displayed earlier to you. I have been … stressed since joining the Inquisition. I am not used to this many eyes watching each other’s moves.” She inclined her head slightly.

“I hadn’t planned on telling my sister. She and I have never agreed on much to begin with. No sense in starting yet another argument when the Inquisitor needs her expertise as of now.”

The Commander politely nodded at her apologies: “There’s no need for this, Lady Alina.”

But that was interesting. Why two sisters with the same upbringing system disagreed?  He didn’t trust Morrigan as much as the witch despised him. Cullen knew eerie stories about her luring into the wilds Templars who never got out of there. Why should Alina have been different?
