Family hurts in the end; him and Gunnar have the Carta, Nasir's got a twin he lost to the Crows and found again, apostates raising babies gives you Amalia, Melisende won't talk about bits of alienage life, Liadan nearly cracked under the loss of hers to the Chantry explosion and resulting chaos then there was Asher's whole mess. So. Yngvi would swerve it really. Only he learned all his tricks from them.
Turns out that he's not as good when he's playing with the same hand as everyone else.
"No. Asher," it's his voice that cracks on that name like it's been doing lately and he screws his face up. "Asher signed us on when he came. Then Asher died but we still wanted to honour the contract for him and the rest of us so I said I'd stay in Skyhold. Only we weren't staying in Skyhold but Melisende said you said you'd stay and Inquisition said 'we need dwarves' and here I am. Here. All the teeth and the bones."
