#secondary muse: carver hawke

[daughterofhighever-blog]

"That's a fancy way of saying you're going to try to kill him, Sebastian," Carver said with a sharp edge. He may not have let Marion tell him what Anders had planned, but she had told him how angry Sebastian had been, and what threats he had made.

"The Commander is going to be your best hope of finding him, either way. Marion did say he had a plan, but I don't know him really, or how his mind works."

Heat gripped Carver's chest and he found himself wanting very much to be anywhere else but there at that moment. He strode past Sebastian towards the door gesturing further in the direction they'd originally come.

"Kitchens are down the hall that way, on the left. Or you can grab one of the serving boys in the grey and black liveries."

Pausing in the doorway, he half turned back to look at Sebastian out of the corner of his eye.

"Word of advice? Try not to let it slip just how much you might want to kill Anders on sight when you talk to her. There's history there."

Anger flashed through Sebastian's eyes. "He will face justice," he repeated as Carver stood in the doorway to the room, "whatever that may look like."

"I'm just trying to tell you - you're not the only one this is personal fo-"

Carver bit his tongue and made a clicking sound against his cheek as if chastising himself.  Something passed over his face, and for a moment he almost appeared sad.

He opened his mouth to say something else, but instead of speaking further, he turned his head away from Sebastian and walked off.

Children. Sebastian felt his throat tighten. For the children at the Gallows whom Hawke hopefully had saved, and for the ones in the Chantry who never had a chance. He wanted to look away from Carver, to close his eyes and spend a moment grieving them and thanking that at least some were spared a horrible death, but he wouldn't allow himself to avert his gaze. He swallowed and hardened his resolve. He was doing this for the children who had been in the Chantry that day, who had been in the homes and buildings near the Chantry and were caught in the explosion. Not all of them died. It might have been kinder to some who hadn't. He couldn't save them or change the pain of the ones who survived—nor of the adults—but he could at least try and bring the one who did it to justice.

The thought of justice and what it had warped into through, or because, or, Sebastian found he had to allow, despite, Anders, helped set his gaze to steel again. It refocused him away from how raw the loss still felt if he dwelled on it overlong. He didn't need the details of what happened at the Gallows. He wasn't sure he could bear it.

"Yet you eventually parted ways," Sebastian said. Did his voice sound hoarse or was that just because he felt it should? "Do you know where she went? Or where she was headed?" Do you know if the mage was with her? was his unspoken question.

"I," he began, before clenching his jaw as if fighting some innate block. Everything in his head was screaming against telling Sebastian the whole of the truth. That he wanted to kill Anders was as certain to Carver as the fact that Marion would die to protect him.

But he had already answered much the same questions when the Warden Commander had asked. That Sebastian would find out eventually was all but guaranteed.

"I got her... got them both out of Kirkwall and into Ferelden. After that, no I really don't know where they went. I wouldn't let her tell me."

Sebastian's mouth pressed into a firm line. It would have been too easy if Carver had known, he supposed. Now he did allow his eyes to close, and exhaled audibly through his nose: a contained sound of frustration.

"I understand," he said, opening his eyes to look at Carver squarely once more, "your loyalty to your sister. But you have to know I intend to find him and bring him to justice for his actions."

"I was there," Carver said after a pause. There was a heaviness to his tone as he spoke, but it wasn't guilt. No, it was the sort of weight that came with any great admission.

"When I got word of what happened to mother... I had to come back to Kirkwall. I had to see my sister... to make sure she was alright. Hadn't even been off the boat more than an hour when everything explo..."

A wince at the poor choice of words and a not so subtle correction...

"When everything went wrong."

The sharp pang of hurt drew Sebastian's mouth taut at the corners, but he didn't comment on Carver's correction. Not that he was wrong; it had been a spectacularly impressive explosion. It destroyed so much, so quickly. So extensively. Not just the Chantry, either.

Sebastian pushed through the welling up of images that flashed through his memory and let out a small, stabilizing breath. "And did you find your sister?"

"Yes."

Carver ran a hand through his hair. He had never been very good at reading people. It frustrated him to try and read subtext and subtlety in the expressions, tones, and body language of others - but even he could feel tension growing the air and pulling things tight.

"Ran into them... all... in Lowtown. The Templars were going to kill everyone in the Gallows - even the little kids. Marion wasn't going to leave them, and I wasn't going to leave her."

Sebastian motioned with his hand, wordlessly indicating Carver should lead the way once more. He wasn't quite sure how to read Carver's reaction. Were the Wardens entirely abreast of what happened? He had no doubts that news of what happened to the Chantry, the mages, and the templars had reached the ears here, but to what extent, Sebastian couldn't have guessed. He supposed they also might be aware that Carver's sister was, in fact, the Champion of Kirkwall, quite possibly from Carver himself.

He followed behind the younger man, down a few corridors until they reached a hallway lined with wooden doors. It was quiet here; part of Sebastian felt immediately at ease in the familiarity of the space so near to that of the Chantry's personal cells. Almost immediately following that sense of peace, a larger part of him recoiled. Those cells no longer existed. The smooth stone arches of the doorways were shattered into thousands of pieces, blackened from their cool rose hue from the explosion. He knew; he'd helped dig through that particular rubble in the hopes of finding survivors. Sebastian's jaw tightened at the memory, and a hard ache tightened in his chest.

Carver paused at one of the doors, and then opened it, clearly waiting for Sebastian to go in first. All at once, he was seized with the wild notion that if he did enter before Carver, he might be locked in the room and left with no answers until—maybe—the Warden Commander came to him, unless Carver was so loyal to his sister he told his Commander Sebastian had simply left. From all he knew of Carver, it was a ridiculous thought far out of character, but it still twisted his chest for a moment, all the same.

"After you," he said instead, inclining his head a little.

Carver's mouth started to open a bit, before he rolled his eyes and choked back a disbelieving scoff, and a 'Paranoid much?'...

He strode into the room, towards the far end, turning around to face Sebastian with his arms out as if to say, 'Well?'

"Look, for what it's worth, I am sorry about the Grand Cleric. The whole thing was a proper mess - the Chantry, the Gallows, the Knight-Commander going dogshit insane trying to Annul the whole place..."

Sebastian slowly followed Carver into the room as the other spoke, never taking his eyes off the younger man's face. He didn't want to interrupt the flow of whatever Carver was going to say, and so let the pause hang between them to see if he would continue.

[daughterofhighever-blog]

Carver shook his head, giving little more than a soft 'huh' in response to Sebastian's answer. At the comment about his sister, in the past tense no less, there was a subtle twitch in the muscles of his cheek as his jaw ground just a tad.

"No, she really isn't. Bethy was though. Shame you never got to meet her."

The air felt a touch heavy and tense for a moment, before they came to the doors. It was blessedly much warmer inside, and Carver was grateful for it.

"Food first? Or a chance to dry off? We've got warmer clothes if you need."

"I think maybe a question, first," came Sebastian's reply. Carver's tension did not go unnoticed to the Starker, and Sebastian wasn't about to tiptoe around the subject. That would undermine the entire reason he had even come here to begin with.

He followed Carver's lead and stepped inside the blessedly warmer interior, then stamped his boots a few times to shake off any loose snow. "Do you know where your sister is, Carver? Have you heard from her at all since" —his voice caught for a moment— "since the events in Kirkwall?"

Carver stopped and sighed heavily. Closing his eyes, he pinched at the bridge of his nose and grimaced visibly. He'd been expecting this. He wasn't even surprised Sebastian was being this forward and direct about it.

After a moment, he glanced around the entrance hall. There were only a few others milling about, but it was enough to make him uneasy about answering right then and there.

"About that..." He muttered, mostly to himself though it would have been loud enough to hear. Finally looking at Sebastian he gestured forward.

"Not here."

Sebastian followed Carver, their boots crunching in the snow as they crossed the courtyard toward the fortress doors leading inside. "It's been some time since I had Ferelden cuisine," Sebastian said, conversationally. He kept his eyes on the snow before him as he walked, appearing to concentrate on where next to place his step.

Carver didn't break his stride, but turned to look at Sebastian with a cocked brow and an expression that was equal parts curious and confused. 

"When have you ever been to Ferelden? Unless you're talking about Marion's sorry attempts at onion and pork porridge?"

If it had been a different time, that would have drawn a soft laugh from him, but as it stood, Sebastian's mouth only twitched a little in a ghost of a smile. "I visited Ferelden a few times as a child and later, as a youth. It's been many years, though." There was a brief pause, then he added, "Your sister was not the best of cooks."
