WHAT: two emotionally healthy people being emotionally healthy together
WHEN: post Tevinter
WHERE: Kirkwall
NOTES: violence

Helena is skulking in the shadows. This is not a great surprise. Being near the training arena, watching and lurking, these are all things to be reasonably expected of her. Helena taking interest in people she likes, that is perhaps also not a surprise, but just how whether or not she likes someone is to be gauged is rather more complicated.

She spies him, brooding and severe, and it makes her frown. More frowns than usual, on Hanzo. More heaviness and weighing down on the shoulders, and she spends a little time watching before she descends. Lands on the dirt with legs crouched, fingers splayed on the ground, a feral creature moving through the dust.

"Hanzo. What is troubling?"

The dragons are something that Hanzo is so used to that he cannot imagine not having them, or for people to find them strange or frightening. He is so used to spirits, to spirit magic - it is what he was trained in, what he would have specialised in if he was given the chance. If he hadn't run and fled before he had been properly trained. If he hadn't... Well.

The past should be left in the past, even if it haunts him, makes him feel sharp and bitter and all edges.

"They are both sneaky. No one has noticed them so far," Hanzo smiles fondly, reaching as Tomo curls around him, Kenji choosing to dance around Helena's fingers and play with her, catlike and happy.

Softening, he nods carefully, watching her with some fondness colouring him. "It would be terrible if we were all the same."

A nod of agreement, even if there is something— uncomfortable.

You are the same as all the others, Tomas had shouted at her, when she thought to spare Sarah's life, to say that her sestra was not the same as the other clones. It would be terrible if we were all the same feels like it so easily cut into the meat of who she is, of her sisters, than it being about the type of person she is.

(It would be terrible if all people were killers, like her.)

Her smile falls away a little, as she focuses on Kenji, teasing him by feigning going one way and moving the other, tapping at his snout with her fingertips. "I am sneaky also, Kenji."
