[That’s the way a hug is supposed to be! Crushing and with minimal ground contact. Lavellan would have accepted no less.

Despite only being gone from Thedas a few days, he’s already missing it. This new place hasn’t been particularly stressful to get used to, other than one or two things here and there, but it’s still unfamiliar. Bull is not. And at least one stable thing between worlds in the form of a big scary Qunari? That’s nice. That’s really nice.

Buuuut…] Alright. You can put me down now.

[rideme]

[Add some manly back-slapping and they're golden. Because damn. It's good to see someone from home again. Sort of.]

[Hell, this Inquisitor's from home, that's all that matters.]

[And yes he puts the elf down, carefully.]

That do it for you?

[melavasomniar]

It did. Thank you. [And it honestly, really did. The network and phone and whatnot are pretty cool inventions but… nothing beats seeing someone in person.]

I don’t know what I’d do without you looking out for me and providing me emergency hugs.

[I mean. He’d probably get by. But it’s the sentiment that counts, right?]

[rideme]

Good. [And he thumps the smaller man on both shoulders -- at once.]

Heh. Don't worry, boss. Anything you need -- you know the Bull is there.

[melavasomniar]

[And Lavellan feels like he's just shrunk three inches under the weight of the thumps, but he just laughs it off.]

Of course, thanks. And anything I can help you with, you know I will. If you ever need me to babysit... [Cue shit-eating grin.]

[rideme]

... Okay, I know you've got this whole staring into the face of demons, and holes in the sky crap handled, but.

These kids are too much.

[melavasomniar]

That seems like a vast exaggeration.

[There's no way Bull would put children on the same stress level as DEMONS.]

[rideme]

... I'll introduce you to Canada and Testosterone later, boss. Whenever you feel like meeting a couple walking kegs of gaatlok.

[Okay so it's Kaneda and Tetsuo. But they're little shits who get shitty nicknames.]

[melavasomniar]

[Those silly nicknames and the comment that follows gets a unattractive snortlaugh.]

Alright. For now, I'll settle for you showing me where to get a drink around here.

[rideme]

Now that, I can do. They've got these things called margaritas, and boss?

We need to take these back to Skyhold with us. They're fucking fantastic.

[melavasomniar]

Well, I've got to try them before I can truly give the okay for it, but I think we can do that.

[rideme]

Okay. So, when you've got a minute, we'll go try them out.
