[Closed] The best part of leaving

[justice_is_blond]

WHO: Anders, Nathaniel Howe
WHAT: Coming back to Skyhold from Halamshiral
WHEN: Nowish
WHERE: Kestral House
NOTES: Probably sap, possibly heavier themes, probably adult content WTG TORI.

There'd been a few things to drop off at the healing tents, a couple of reports to make, but as soon as those are done Anders is headed straight for the Kestral house. He's missed Nate. And while missing someone is nothing new, there is now a hope every time they're parted. He'll see Nate again.... like right now, as he ducks back into the sleeping are and finds the curtained portion that's theirs.

"Where's Purrelden? I've missed her." The mischief in his smile says a lot, but the fact that he's reaching for the archer instead of the cat that's currently sitting on Lady says the rest.

Now Nate looks a touch embarrassed.

"I'd...be honored. And happy to do it." It will give him something to do, at least. And a way to help Anders that's more direct, more measurable, less abstract. He leans in for a soft kiss.

"We have the room to ourselves," he points out.

"Do we?" he asks, closing the small gap between them and pressing his body to Nate's. "Are you hinting at something? We could talk more about writing, and how I'm thankful that you'll help me, about Halamshiral... but if you've other ideas, I'm open to suggestions."

There's a deliberate pause, and his smile so clearly says that he knows what Nate's suggesting.

"Or are you requesting advance payment for your assistance?"

[pinprick]

"I'm suggesting I express to you exactly how much I missed you and how glad I am that you have returned by throwing you down and ravishing you thoroughly."

Which is what they proceed to do.
