[ OPEN ] Are You Lost In the World Like Me?

WHO: Kirk + YOU
WHAT: Catch-all for the rest of Firstfall - open prompts + a few closed
WHEN: From Firstfall 20 onwards
WHERE: Around Skyhold
NOTES: Sheningans, flirting, cursing, sexiness, silly things,


A - Library
It had been some time since he had had the time to really explore the library, what with parties, earning coin, going out on a few missions, and learning to control the power in his shard. The library had simply felt out of reach, or at the least been on the bottom of places for him to be at.

But now he was making some effort to be there, and more often than not he could be seen with a mixture of books about history and about magical theory. He's even found a notebook to take notes in. That does not stop him from letting out frustrated breaths from time to time though. Or perhaps a lot, especially when working with the magic books.

B - The Stables
Over the course of the past six months or so, Kirk has come to enjoy the stables. There was something relaxing about being around the animals and practicing his horsemanship. He could canter with little issue now and sit nicely, though he was not going to call himself an expert (and to be fair he had been riding one of the more mild-mannered horses).

Of course he tended to spend quite a bit of time with Boggy, stroking and talking with the bog unicorn. He would even sit beside his paddock and read to him, as if the creature could understand, but if nothing else he thought it was nice for the other to hear the cadence of a friendly voice. He had even bought some tinctures to rub into the skin around his face to help protect him from the sun and keep from getting dried out. He had no idea if that was a real concern or not for the bog unicorn, but no taking chances, right?

C - The Battlements: Late Night
Some nights Kirk didn't want to sleep, or perhaps couldn't. Either way, it tended to lead him towards the battlements. He liked to go up and walk on them, to find a quiet place on the wall to wrap a blanket around himself and look up at the sky when it wasn't overcast. He smiled as his eyes traced his made-up constellations, recited their made up stories in his head. Sometimes his arm raised up to trace a new path, or maybe it was to send a prayer out into the endless dark sea.

Seeing Kirk trying to keep balance, he walks closer and offers a shoulder for him to lean against. "I suspect scaling the stairs as well?" He tries to say it in a teasing way, but it's obvious that he's more concerned about Kirk's safety after hearing that. "Should I give you a ride over?"
