After a rough mission, the two of them like to take turns listening to each other's heartbeat, to reassure themselves that they are both still alive.
Varric relaxes on their bed, staring at the scattered papers in front of them as he waits for Bethany to return from visiting with Hawke.
The door to the room opens after a moment rustling next to him, makes Varric look up and smile at Bethany as she settles down on their bed and relaxes beside him, laying her head on his chest to listen to his heartbeat.
"Love you, Varric."
"Love you too, Sunshine."
