WHO: Cole and Hermione (and Dandelion the nug)
WHAT: Secret birthday fun times
WHEN: 19th of Kingsway
WHERE: Skyhold
NOTES: n/a

There are dozens of little sadnesses all over Skyhold. People who are concerned with the still-drafty corridors, who miss the families and friends who are far from the Inquisition, who fear those who ought to be their colleagues. To Cole, it's the everyday noise of life, the same as the rush of the waterfall or the wind through the mountains.

Often, however, one or two will bubble up above the rest on a given day. Worries and sorrows that normally would have been nothing of special note start to hurt a little bit more. That's when Cole has no choice but to listen.

And that's how Hermione will find herself being followed around, on the 19th of Kingsway, by a particular nug in little red boots, with a red bow around her neck.

The nug's focus on her may appear to be a mystery, until she checks her pockets and finds bits of fresh turnip. Which she definitely did not gather herself.
