moon still bright against the worrying sky by thismission for sleepfight
Fandoms: Dragon Age: The Veilguard (Video Game)

Summary
Affection so gentle it makes Tarquin feel exposed and raw, skin sensitive worse than sitting out in the burning sun for days on end, isn’t supposed to have a place between people like them.

Tags
Summary
Tarquin hums, closing his eyes again. “Keep doing that and I’ll fall back asleep.”
“Can’t have that,” Ashur says. “I’m trying to wake you up.”
“Hm.” Tarquin blinks at him. “Gonna have to come up with a different strategy, then.”

Summary
Tarquin stands rigid as a lamppost, arms frozen at his sides, unable to figure out what the fuck he’s supposed to do in a situation like this.
No boss of his has ever done this before.
Not really any of his friends, either.

Summary
Apparently, according to Rana, Tarquin hasn’t shown up to work for the past three days.
Tarquin also hasn’t been at the Safehouse in five days now; hasn’t spoken to Ashur in all that time either and not sent word to anyone about why he’s staying away.
But Ashur knows.
Ashur has known since the first night Tarquin didn’t show up, because there could only be two reasons: either Tarquin’s gotten in trouble somehow, or he’s avoiding Ashur.

Summary
“How long have you been sick?” Ashur says. There’s nothing for his magic to hone in on, no source of corruption or open wound to heal. He can’t pull a virus out of Tarquin’s body—only ease the symptoms that show up. “What are you even doing here? You should be in bed.”
(Or: Tarquin pushes himself too hard and Ashur forces him to take a break.)

Summary
There is a job to do, Ashur reminds himself. That fact hasn’t changed just because he got to kiss Tarquin for the first time last night.

Summary
“What did you hear?”
He expects Ashur to tell him about some serious Shadow Dragons business, but instead his eyes crinkle like he’s smiling behind the mask. “You,” Ashur says, “have admirers.”

It’s been a long, slow, boring day down in the Archives when the door leading to the cellar creaks open.

It’s a late rainy morning when Tarquin first meets his cat.
(Or: Tarquin accidentally ends up getting adopted by one of the Minrathous strays.)

Summary
“So lemme get this straight,” Tarquin says as he carefully rounds the corner of the big black desk in the bedchamber at the Divine’s Manor. “When you called for me because of a ‘situation’, this is what you meant?”
Tarquin stares at the exact copy of Ashur that’s currently following Tarquin’s path, walking after him without breaking eye contact.

Summary
Ashur can’t look away from Tarquin’s hand gripping his sword. Especially not when Tarquin mindlessly starts stroking his hold a little up and down the length of it.

Summary
Ashur’s head snaps up. Everything is—
Silent.
Not around them. There’s still the cries of battle in the distance, buildings on fire nearby making loud snapping noises as the wooden structures fall.
But there’s no song in his head.

Summary
“When’s the last time you slept, Viper?”
“I’m fine,” Ashur says, blinking away the heaviness in his eyelids and straightening himself up from where he’s been slumping further and further down the wall they’re sitting leaned back against.

Tarquin’s having a bad day. Ashur might just be what he needs to make it better.

Summary
It takes a moment before Tarquin realizes just what Ashur is rambling on about, his eyebrows shooting up once he finally processes it. “Hang on—are you trying to buy me a dick?”

Summary
Three days after Ashur had his life changed in the passenger seat of a stranger’s old Nissan, he feels like he has cycled through all stages of grief multiple times over and over, and finally reached some level of acceptance.

Summary
“So,” Mercar glances over at him while tossing his elemental orb in the air between his hands, and as if he isn’t the most annoying person in this city already, he says, “you and Ashur are fucking, right?”

Summary
Ashur wakes to a room that’s far too bright for it to be the usual early hour he gets up at.

Summary
“You’re not planning on robbing me or something, are you?” Tarquin says and pulls out a squished packet of cigarettes from the front pocket of his pants.
That makes Ashur whip his head around to look at him. “Of course not.”
“Then,” Tarquin reaches over and tugs down the scarf the guy has tied around his neck and pulled all the way up to his nose, covering half of his face, “the fuck is up with this?”
