#we had jasper + bethany + my cousland + squids tabris

[queerloquial]

found part of an old ‘hawkes become wardens in addition to the existing wardens’ au with squid

ok but have you considered, in the multiple wardens au maura roping jasper into teaching her a handful of rivaini words and phrases so she can tell bethers things like 'i love you' and 'you look beautiful today' in her own language her accent needs a little work, but the words are right, and the intent consider that neither maura nor jasper let bethers know shes learning rivaini either, so its a complete surprise when maura one day scoops her up to press fluttering kisses across her cheeks and nose, whispers 'te amo, querida' in between giggles

hfidhdhfh AT BOTH THIS AND MALCOLM

hehehe <3

i just woke up from a nap and catapulted into wordless screaming

good

okay but have you considered zevran lowkey grilling bethany about what sort of presents jasper likes back

tghbjnk i had not (mm... he likes jewelry, for one; soft fabrics and sensory things; little trinkets from far-off places) (rivaini items are, nturally, his favorite, but he likes just about anything that gives him thoughts of a lifetime of traveling thedas, free to do as he pleases)

zevran disappears into certain back rooms in denerim and comes back with a travelogue of a rivaini seer grey warden alistair is appalled. where'd you get that. what. where. how. and zevran just winks i'm guessing the Mage underground trades it back and forth

most likely jasper gapes at the book, looks from zevran to it and back again, smile playing at the corners of his mouth. 'i... you... this...'

zevran tries to look utterly nonchalant but he's clearly hanging onto Jasper's every word. "i did, and it is," he confirmed, with a nervous smile

'how are you so utterly amazing?' he mutters, pulling zevran into the warmest bear hug he he can possibly manage, and if he leans down a bit to kiss his forehead that's nobody's business but their own
