Summary
His gaze returned again to the drawer at his desk, to the quick snap of the lock that would take but a moment, at the relief that was guaranteed, an end to his self-inflicted torment. He could feel sweat upon his brow, beading on his upper lip, forming, somehow both balmy and cold, under his armor.
“Are you listening to me, Cullen—?”
He was pinned between two forces. The lyrium and her. Stretched taught between them to the point where he could feel his sinews straining. One force had to give, the lyrium or her—
He surged from his chair, taking the choice from one victor, giving it to the other.
One addiction after all was far kinder, far gentler.
“Can I touch you?” was out of him before he could preface it, arrange it to be better-worded.
--
Or Cullen goes through lyrium withdrawal and uses "servicing" Inquisitor Lavellan as a way to cope.
