Then here I am, in all of my beautiful glory.

Now the question is, what will you do with me. [Which he says as suggestively as he can manage.]
samahl: (super cute)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 07:04 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'm happy to talk.

You know, I feel like I always ask so many questions of you. Is there anything you wanted to know about me?
samahl: (dark)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Cyril is surprised by that question and after a moment, he looks away. His expression gets more thoughtful. It takes him a moment to work up the courage to answer honestly and then when he speaks he can't look at Kolivan.]

It's not.

Easy for me, I mean.

Sex is easy, but anything more complex than that I utterly fall apart.
samahl: (now that we have a moment alone)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
[He takes a breath, and has to fight back to urge to shut this down and run.]

I've no idea. It's been like that since I was young. The last time it happened was... a few months before you arrived on the Fleet.
samahl: (the inquisitor)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
[The touch helps. It feels like an anchor. Kolivan's hand is so large and strong against him, and it feels almost like a shield.]

Because you deserve that
samahl: (what is it and how do you know)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
What I want first and foremost is to be your friend.
samahl: (mercenary coat)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Cyril makes a slight face, but it's not against Kolivan so much at his own emotional state at being asked such a question.

He opens and closes his mouth a couple of times.
]

Kolivan... Answering that question feels like it will hurt me.

I'm trying but...
samahl: (arrows and bow)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 08:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Cyril sighs, thankful to Kolivan for the subject change.]

When I was young. Dalish tend to have roles they fall into. My brother wanted to be a hunter, so I became one as well. He is a dual wielder, so it made sense for me to learn to be a ranged fighter.
samahl: (still all eyebrows)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. It started by hunting for food for the Clan and defending us against outsiders, and then when I became part of the Inquisition it was for fighting off monsters.

When I lost my arm, I wasn't sure I would ever be the same with it, but this technology has given that back to me. [He wiggles the cybernetic fingers on his left arm.]

I wish I could take this knowledge back to Thedas. It would help so many people.
samahl: (face)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 08:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Cyril does, and he smiles.]

I know...

I'm trying my best back home with the time I have left. Here's hoping that version of me does all right for himself.
samahl: (anchor glowing)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Right.

He hasn't really told Kolivan about.... any of that.
]

Ah. Yes.

You see, the magic that took my arm isn't entirely gone from my body. Removing the limb bought me time... But...

[He isn't really into finishing that sentence.]
samahl: (anchor seal it)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-09 09:11 am (UTC)(link)
Sooner rather than later.

The mage the magic belonged to said it was inevitable but he plans to destroy the world before I waste away, so perhaps I'll die along with everyone else.

If I can figure out a way to stop him before that, then the world will go on and I won't.
samahl: (mercenary coat)

[personal profile] samahl 2019-03-13 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
That's my hope, anyway.

I couldn't live with my last moments comfortably if I realized there was something more I could do with them.
