Up with the dawn, mornings have Cullen with the troops. He prefers to see to their training personally, especially the newer recruits, especially those who feel timid around a sword. They wish to fight, wish to lend their lives to the Inquisition and he will do whatever it is necessary to help them along. He spends time walking among the ranks as they train against each other and against the training dummies, pointing out tips and tricks to grip their sword better, how to thrust properly, how to land a better blow.
Of course, there are also those who think that they are obviously better than others, and Cullen's also quick to knock them down a peg or two.
Then there are times when he stands back and observing, shouting out commands as he needs to. "There's a shield in your hand, block with it!"
[Afternoons]
Cullen is definitely a busy man. Afternoons find Cullen going over reports of the repairs going on at Skyhold, making sure the workers have what they need and prioritizing what needs to be repaired first. Outer walls, defenses. Granted, incoming dignitaries may scoff at the shabby state of Skyhold's interior, but they will have to deal. A clean interior will not offer any protection if outer defenses are lost.
Most of the time, he's down at the bottom of the stairs in Skyhold's lower courtyard, going over the day's reports and speaking with guards and troops as they go in and out of the castle. He works late into the night like he always does, hardly taking any time to himself.
