[It's not been a super fun week for Fenris, not that this is anything usual. Fenris' entire LIFE is never super fun. He'd been enjoying cave exploring with Hawke, up until his loss had dragged him back. He'd tried to find her again, of course, but only to be brought back to the castle again before he could do so.

It can not be stated enough how much he really, really hates his loss. And now it's snowing, which he isn't a big fan of. Tevinter is tropical, and even Kirkwall isn't all that cold. He's almost regretting his lack of shoes now, as he stands by the main doors of the castle, glaring at the snow like it insulted his mother. His journal his nearby to record his distaste ]

I have never seen such a heavy snow before. Does it get worse than this? I do not relish being trapped inside the castle for months on end. [Because that's what happens with heavy snow, right?]

[[ooc: Journal or open, also open for planned and unplanned kisses, have at!]]

Indeed, you will not if you wish to keep your feet. [Frostbite is not fun, man.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

I did not plan on walking out in it, but I doubt that this world will give me the option for the remainder of winter.

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[a chuckle] Perhaps not. [And then a pause] I do believe I owe you both an explanation and an apology. Have I told you, my friend, that "Artanis" was the name given me at birth?

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[He pauses, not quite sure how to take that]

...No, you have not. To what do I owe the honour of being told this?

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

Do you not recall leading a young girl by that name in a search for me? [You can put it together, Fenris. She knows you can.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[He frowns, then his eyes widen as he remembers]

That was you? ...I assume it was a loss?

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

It was. I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you.

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

It was no inconvenience, I am just sorry I was not of more help.

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

I managed well enough. I was a rather independent child by nature.

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

So I could tell. You survived far better than most, given your situation.

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

Lord Elrond was gracious enough to ensure that I did nothing foolhardy during that time.

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

That is good, at least. It is good you have someone you can rely on.

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

It is. I hope you may say the same. [Wait. Did she see something shiny out of the corners of her eyes?]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

Of that, I still have a lot to...

[He catches it too, turning to look] What...

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

I am not...[Sure? She's not sure of a lot of things, like what the Hell is going on here. She finds herself stepping closer to him, for reasons she can't quite explain.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[He turns from the...weird floating thingies to look at her. And stares transfixed.

Galadriel you're so very beautiful did you know that?]

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[Yes, she does. Fenris, did you know that you have very expressive eyes? She might just be leaning forward to examine them a little closer...]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[So long as you don't pluck them out to wear on a necklace, he's cool with that. In fact, he leans in himself, and what was observation suddenly changes as he catches her lips in a kiss]

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[...Fenris obviously leads an interesting life.

Strangely, she's not shocked or irritated by this. Later, when the magic wears off, she'll feel awkward, embarrassed, and a little guilty. But right now, she's actually returning the kiss, softly but not without enthusiasm.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[It's called Hanging Out With Weirdoes.

All horrible realisations can be saved for afterwards. Fenris pulls her in a little closer, deepening the kiss as he does so, the sharp points of his gauntlets catching her clothing a little]

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[Galadriel doesn't particularly care about potential snags in her gown at the moment. She wraps her arms around him in response, one hand reaching up to run her fingers through his hair.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

[Isn't it pretty hair Galadriel? He sighs contentedly into the kiss...right up to the point where suddenly the fairies have gone. Then he very quickly lets her go and steps out of the way]

I... I am sorry.

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[Oh... my. As she realizes what just happened,her face flushes bright red and raises her hand to her lips in disbelief. A very clear line has been crossed here and she's not exactly sure why. To be frank, even if she weren't married, Fenris is nowhere near her type.

Just give her a second to form coherent words.]

As do I. I had no intention...[Awkward trailing off and her blush deepens. This lack of eloquence doesn't happen to her often.]

[wolfuncaged.livejournal.com]

Neither had I. [Because after all, he's trying to deal with all the Hawke stuff and as self-destructive as he is, he's pretty sure he wouldn't sabotage his relationship with her THIS badly.

Probably]

[inafadingcrown.livejournal.com]

[Well, that's good at least. It means we can both pretend this never happened.]

I am somewhat at a loss to explain this, then. [Give her brain a second to catch up, she'll get to the magic explanation eventually.]
