a fishing date;
There were no impromptu trips to Sundermount, in fact. Merrill had holed herself up with the Eluvian, avoiding Hawke whenever possible. The Arulin'Holm stayed at the estate, locked away somewhere, and the Dalish woman didn't want to see or hear from Hawke without good cause. Which was understandable (upsetting, but understandable), and she let Varric and Isabela take over Merrill's undertaking. They'd update her whenever possible and she was infinitely grateful, though she knew things couldn't stay that way forever. Eventually, they'd need to talk, and that would happen when Marian was good and ready. For now, she wasn't.
First on her mind was Anders and his mage underground. He would disappear for days on end, surfacing only to work in his clinic where he would refuse to go on any errands. Too busy, he'd say, occupied with his patients and his manifesto. It didn't stop him from pressing worn papers into her hands at every opportunity, the bastard. Her desk was full of Anders' scrawl, damning evidence if anyone should walk in and ask about it. She'd been certain to lock them in the bottom drawer, out of sight and out of mind, but she couldn't put him off any more than she could push aside the trouble she had with Merrill.
With her hands full of Kirkwall's smaller troubles - bandits, a few raiders on the outskirts, and a blood mage or two - she had nearly forgotten her plans with Cullen until she returned one night to a note on her desk at the end of the week. Even such a simple thing was enough to brighten her mood considerably and she packed that evening, though she wasn't to meet him for two more days.
She used the time to tell only a few that she'd be gone from the city, that no one was kidnapping her, and that she'd be very cross if she came back to find Kirkwall burning in her absence. Only Isabela and Varric gave her a hard time for her attempts at discretion, asking for details and gaining nothing.
By sunset on the second day, she was down by the docks to meet him, a pack slung over one arm and her blades across her shoulders, her eyes on the ships and the few workers lingering around. She couldn't be too careful, even now.

When she pulled off, he caressed her hair, his grip loosening. "This feels amazing," he murmured. He had drawn a breath for more only to lose it altogether in the warm, wet, tight plunge downward. He groaned, his head tossing back hard enough to impact the mast with some force. "Oh, Maker..." he gasped. "Maker's breath...Hawke..."
no subject
Her other hand was exploring too, testing his boundaries just as she was testing her own. Her touch lingered further down, over his balls, massaging with the tips of her calloused fingers. She groaned once more for good measure, this time with a very clear intention in mind.
no subject
His hips jerked slightly, the vibrations from the sound she made causing his muscles to clench and hold the tension. He rocked several short thrusts, careful not to plunge deep. His other hand released its grip of the mast behind him, seeking her shoulder and arm, to touch her anywhere he could reach.
no subject
She broke away for just a moment for a deep inhale, lips moist with saliva, though her hands never left him for a single second. When she was ready, she shifted the weight on her feet and stepped back in to have him once more, a few more shallow sucks before she relaxed her mouth again to draw him in as deep as she could allow. Her nose brushed his pelvis, a faint groan reverberating through her at her success.
no subject
"Andraste's pyre," he groaned softly, eyes squeezing shut. He held still for her, back arched and body straining an arc of intense pleasure. His thighs quivered, and he locked one knee to bring himself back to better balance. He didn't want to have to stop her to change position, determined to fight to hold what he could for as long as he could. It was increasingly a challenge.
no subject
Her tongue slid along whatever she could manage while he was in her mouth and she let up only so she could find other areas for her to lave and give attention to. After a time, she came up for another long and slow inhale through her nostrils, then through her mouth as she attempted to steady her breathing. One look at him was all it took to have her flushing further, briefly smirking before she took him in again. The pace was a little harsher this time, determined as she was to get him to let go as much control as he dared give her.
no subject
During her breathing break, he cupped both of her cheeks with his hands, thumbs gently rubbing across the soft skin. If he had thought he could bend forward without possibly rocking the boat, he would have kissed her then. The moment passed, and with the renewed assault, he had to reach back again toward the mast. He needed the extra support with his hips jerking harder. They were still small motions. He had enough control for that, but his vocalizations were coming more frequently, low groans on his exhales. The pleasure was slower to build than it would have been before his first release. He still didn't think it would be long. "Do you have any idea what you're doing to me?" he murmured.
no subject
With another squeeze, she quickened her pace just a little more, though she was certain to keep it at a manageable rhythm with what little movement they could safely afford. The bobs of her head were somewhat more shallow as she tried for a faster pace, but she would offset that every so often with a slower, deeper suck, a hum of a groan for him to feel, and a faint squeeze at the base of his shaft. Oh, she knew exactly what she was doing to him.
no subject
The tremors in his legs grew stronger, the rhythm of hips breaking to something less predictable. Breath hissed through his teeth; his eyes rolled back beneath their lids, and his head twisted to the side, exposing his throat. "It's not...not going to be much longer," he warned her. If she wanted to stop then, he wanted to give her that chance, not spring it on her unaware.
no subject
The warning heeded, she pulled back and let her hand take her place for a few moments while she breathed, fingers sliding through slick moisture. She cast him a look and an impish smile, ducking her head to lick the tip. Moving both hands to his thighs, she took him back into her mouth and finally succumbed to a much more rigorous pacing, wanting him to enjoy that mounted pleasure before it crested. She took some care to ensure she wouldn't be fighting to breathe, though there was a certain thrill in cutting off her air supply even so briefly, and she wanted to indulge him as much as she could.
no subject
When she pulled back, he shifted his stance enough to give the mast more of his weight in a lean. He rocked up into her grip, several hard thrusts while bracing himself with his hands. He slowed for the smile and couldn't help but return it, giving an appreciative hum for the teasing lick. He shook his head slightly, part of him still in disbelief this was happening at all.
He took only enough care not to choke her in that final quicker pace, giving what she seemed to be asking of him, to let go and enjoy. He watched her until he had to close his eyes again, jolts of pleasure shooting through him until it crested and broke. He cried out, legs trembling but holding while several hard pulses rocked him. "Hawke..." he gasped, his voice ragged.
no subject
She squeezed his thighs briefly in reward when she continued, fighting back her gag reflex the few times she took him in too deeply. It was a precarious balance that would pay off in the end and it did when he finally broke, her tongue tasting the first splash before he pressed further into her mouth and spilled.
Even swallowing what she could, some of it still made its way past her lips, and she lifted a hand to catch what was left while he finished. She sucked him once more and then released him with a wet sound that only could be called obscene, ducking her head so she could run her thumb over her lips and clean herself up.
no subject
Despite being spent, he kissed her hard, one arm across her back, one hand at the back of her head. His breath was noisy through nostrils, still not fully caught from the intense orgasm. When he had to breathe, he turned his mouth just slightly, only enough to part lips and draw in the air. He could taste himself on her lips and tongue. "That was so good," he murmured. "Maker's breath you had me dying up there."
no subject
It only occurred to her moments later that he could probably taste himself, the thought eliciting a soft groan against his mouth, her fingers digging into his back. She was just as breathless as he when they parted, her eyes bright with mirth as she watched him from under her lashes. "I was afraid your legs would give out," she whispered back, fighting back her smirk.
no subject
He massaged a circle against her back, fingers squeezing into muscle. Pulling away from the kiss, he whispered close to her ear, "I want to do something else for you, too." He tugged playfully at her shirt hem. "You're a little too dressed for it, though."
no subject
Hawke shivered when he pulled close to her ear, smiling at herself. She turned her head towards him, raising an eyebrow. "Hm?" She kissed his shoulder while she had him there, lips curled against his skin. "What do you have in mind, Sera?"
no subject
"You'll get to sit again on the most comfortable seat in the boat." He could get very used to the weight of her in his lap. The air was just cool enough that it felt extra nice having body heat against him. He knew he'd need to remember to pull his breeches back up before they sat. She had a way of distracting him from the details.
no subject
"With an offer like that, who am I to refuse?" she teased gently, tilting her head to take his lips again in a much slower, more sensual press. It wasn't meant to distract him but she wouldn't complain if it did. He'd worked her up and she was surprised to find how much she liked touching him and being close.
no subject
Reaching down to his breeches, he tugged them up along with his small clothes but left the laces untied. There was no need to bother with them. He stepped a couple of steps back and took a seat where he had been standing. Sliding a hand down her arm, he tangled his fingers loosely with hers to draw her closer to him so he could work on her pants.
no subject
Anticipation had her almost squirming when he broke away and she watched him curiously, her fingers mingling with his. A thin eyebrow shot up in surprise when he went for her trousers. "I thought you said —" But he hadn't specified when he said she was wearing too much, had he? She shook her head, reaching up to smooth calloused fingers over his shoulder and across his back. She was dying to know what was running through his head.
no subject
He prompted her to turn around with a twist of his grip. "Take your shirt down? I'd like to feel your back against my chest. If you get cold, we'll figure something out." He didn't intend to allow it if he could help it.
no subject
It was a gesture that didn't last long with him coaxing her around and she shot him a glance over her shoulder as she tugged off her shirt. "And the band?" she asked, a hint of suggestiveness in her tone.
no subject
He leaned back against the mast, lids dropping lower as he waited for her. It didn't matter to him that he was physically spent. Mentally, he was eager to do this for her, wanting more intoxicating contact.
no subject
Once discarded, it was a little more difficult to step back towards him with her pants around her knees, but she was certain he'd guide her into the position he wanted her in.
no subject
He curled forward then, chest to back, and wrapped his arms around her, one hand lifting and cupping across a breast, the other in a warm spread across her stomach. He rested his chin at the top of her shoulder and pressed the side of his head against hers. "I think I like this position. I can touch you wherever I want." He moved his hands in a slow caress, for now focused on warming her and teasing exploration.

Oh no! :( I'll still play with tagging at whatever pace you need to go if you're able.
You're sweet. :( We'll see what the status is when I actually get home.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Sorry you have to deal with this. :(
Thanks!
