#thinking about my qunari blooded noble bastard boy again. will he ever leave my head???? not possible

[velnat004]

thinking about Roman having a momentary connection to his mother when he knocked off Marshall unconscious, he realises why she murdered her sister-in-law

-he never knew the reason why Anais mauled his aunt, he only knows that she did and was executed shortly after

-the mark's getting to him, as the aches in his body were getting stronger each day in the winter palace, and the possibility of him dying by the anchor was getting stronger each passing hour

-and there are thousands of people that expect him to be everywhere at once (if he doesn't get annihilated by the anchor of course), the nobles are eager to nitpick each word he utters, after all, they want the inquisition gone, they need ammunition.

-and now his less than favourite decides to pay a visit amidst all this chaos.

-just like how Anais was caught alone by Paulette [the sister-in-law that was found eaten alive by the Bann's mistress], Roman got cornered by Marshall. The palace was too big to watch every corner. If that wasn't the case, the whole qunari invasion wouldn't occur in the first place

-not that he needed privacy to insult Roman, but being able to catch his bastard cousin alone only felt more justifiable, Marshall was away from the consequences

-he taunts him, this time he emphasizes Roman's inquisitor title, to Marshall he never earned this grand title, and now the very same thing that Roman was celebrated for was killing him from the inside

-Roman's in a less than ideal condition, and as Marshall finishes his sentence, there's a minute of silence and glaring daggers

-that is, before Roman smacks him to the ground with his healthy hand, collapsing him to the floor.

-at each slap he delivers, Roman's howling like a wounded animal. Like how a war hound would howl when it was wounded.

-his cries were not left unheard of course, the guards were already on their way when Marshall was smacked and collapsed at the floor
