oh , grey warden , what have you DONE ? the oath you have taken is all but broken . all is undone , ash in the sun , cast into darkness the light we had won .

peaceseek ,

arthur has often prided himself on his impersonal nature. raised by uther , he learnt to not let things get to him. he should be able to not care. HE’S BUSY and that’s how it is. noora isn’t the only person to fit in his schedule and his courses always take precedence over everything else anyway ( though he can sometimes admit to himself he’s been neglecting even them for sophia’s sake )

and yet…

𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑾𝑶𝑹𝑫𝑺 𝑪𝑼𝑻 𝑳𝑰𝑲𝑬 𝑲𝑵𝑰𝑽𝑬𝑺 , his body tenses up under the weight of the guilt. it’s a gut punch — a cruel reminder of the situation they find themselves in but more than that , it shows the harsh reality of the neglect he’s shown. for a second , his vision flashes white — anger , fury , then shame and finally FLIPPANCY. perhaps it’s his upbringing or maybe it’s sophia’s influence but he finds himself rejecting the pain her reproach elicits DEEP in him. he can’t afford to feel guilty , and besides , 𝒘𝒉𝒚 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒉𝒆 ?

‟ don’t talk like that about her. ” his voice is CHASTISING as he finally finds it in himself to look up , emotions hidden behind a veil of perfectly honed nonchalance. ‟ it’s not like you’re not busy too. ”

his words hit her like daggers aimed at her heart —— he doesn’t know what she’s been going through . he hasn’t planned his own mother’s funeral . he hasn’t felt the blame come from his younger sibling for what happened . he didn’t even KNOW what she was going through . how dare he ! he can’t waltz around with his girlfriend all day and expect to know about her crazy schedule , which now consisted of laying in bed , crying , getting out of bed to go to class , studying for a couple hours , then getting in bed to cry again .

damn him .

“ you don’t get to use that tone of voice with me . ” voice is equally harsh , mostly as an attempt to hide the shaking in her voice as she continues . “ you don’t know what the hell i’ve been going through . if you even bothered to check with me once in awhile , you’d know i’ve been busy planning my mother’s FUNERAL . y’know , ‘ cause she was MURDERED . ”

she’s like a waterfall now —— starting slow , but eventually overflowing . there’s no stopping her until she reaches her natural finish . “ and if you took your head out of her preppy little ass you’d know that i’ve barely been able to get out of bed in the morning and know that carver won’t even talk to me because he thinks it’s somehow my fault —— but PLEASE , your highness —— tell me how i’m busy too . i’d love to hear it . ”

fists clench , knuckles turn paper white . she doesn’t even want to look at arthur right now . he’d been distancing himself from her , slowly but surely over the past few months . noora knew the cause , too —— sophie . she enveloped their lives outside of homework and had taken over not just arthur’s studies , but her own . she didn’t even know the last time he’d asked her how she was —— did he even know her mother had died ?

noora glances down at the ground for a moment , trying her best to just slow her breathing —— she can’t cry , not in front of him . did he even deserve to see her vulnerable like that anymore ? she hadn’t actually spoken to him for months .

and he can’t even look at her . her chest hurts , nails press into her palm . “ arthur . ” fists unclench , staring at the marks that were now embedded into her hand . she shakes them before hiding them behind her back . “ i deserve more than a couple hours you can spare on a friday . ” a pause . “ so do your studies . surely sophie can understand that if she wants you to keep buying her those expensive things . ”

he realises , of course , that he’s put himself in this situation. HE’S the one who said “ sure , anytime , when would you want to set a date ” . he should have known that it isn’t that easy — but apparently he doesn’t , because he did still said “ anytime ” , he still thought “ anytime ”… and yet it’s the third proposition he has to refuse. the first was because he has to write a paper for his political sociology class , the second was DATE NIGHT with sophia and this time —

‟ i promised soph’ i’d drive her up to birmingham. ” his voice is maybe not as APOLOGETIC as it should be but a hand still moves to rub at his forehead awkwardly . they haven’t spent any proper time together in weeks and he does miss her but sophia is sophia and she is his girlfriend. ‟ maybe we can — ah , damn. no , that doesn’t work either ; we’re having a movie night tuesday. ”

teeth bite on his lip as he stares at his schedule , an INFINITE ABYSS of studying and girlfriend time. a pang of guilt starts to gnaw at him , 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 deep in his bowels , eyes incapable of looking at noora’s face. it shouldn’t be this hard to see a friend , and it shouldn’t feel so wrong to spend time with his girlfriend either.
