spicyshimmy:frikadeller:Hawke and Anders to get me out from the art slump (hopefully). Have a crappy phone photo with a bucket load of filters.There was no way of telling—in the beginning, which was never so much a once upon a time as it was a too-clever dwarf insisting on his father’s Thaig that the whole thing was the true story—whether or not the gifts you were given would end up being more like burdens in the final hours of the day. ‘That’s why I always travel light,’ Isabela said.'So the gold you wear,’ Fenris replied. 'That would not weigh you down in the water?’'Some things,’ Isabela admitted, 'are worth sinking for.’Some things are worth sinking for, Anders wrote that night upon the stained vellum, but he crossed it out and changed sinking to burning. Our gifts, he added. Should we choose to keep them. Hawke, notoriously, had never known what to buy, what to keep or what to trash, what to rescue, what to save. He was indiscriminate, really, with all his torn trousers and broody elves, a lock-box with nothing more inside it than what had to be a hundred cracked clan pins from the Deep Roads.'They belonged to someone’s family once,’ Hawke said, twirling one between his fingers, making it disappear against his palm and reappear behind Anders’s ear. ‘Don’t you ever wonder who gave it to them?’No, Anders thought, but which had pricked the skin—he had wondered that. And what had been strong enough to tear it from the heart over which it always rested?When Hawke gave him the present, the Tevinter amulet smaller than Anders thought it would be from the descriptions, he made it appear right there in front of Anders’s chest, and Anders let Hawke tie it around his neck despite the clear danger. Because, he thought, kissing the skin just below the break in Hawke’s nose, some things were worth burning for. -- source link
