[With a rumble of a laugh, Marian tilted her head over, cheek resting against the feathers of his coat. In the chaos of the past few days, perhaps even the past few years, she had forgotten what it felt like to simply... stop. If it wasn't her friends, it was the mages. If it wasn't the mages, it was something else in the city.]
I don't recall the last time I breathed in something other than the stinking Kirkwall air. Aside from all those times we spent chasing Darkspawn. But then, I suppose even the scent of rotting corpses and the taint is better than that.
[This was easier. Draw a few laughs and forget about the sense of betrayal and the ache of guilt in her chest. It was the same way she had always gotten on, this needn't be any different.]
