"And then Hawke tore the door clean off of its hinges, walked into the room, and-"
Speak of the Devil and she will appear. Hawke walked through the small crowd that had gathered, and at the sight of her something in the air went chilly.

Varric stayed turned away when Hawke asked, "Do you have a minute, Varric?"
She couldn't see the fondness mixed with bitter tension in his features. "For you, Hawke?" he said softly. "I have all the time in the world."
He meant to fall silent, to let her say what she came here to say, but something burst out of him unbidden. Turning to her, he said somewhat unkindly, "Congrats, by the way. People say you and that elf are- an item." Normally he'd be more verbose than this, but he's not sure talking too much is a good idea right now. "So. What's going on, Hawke?"
On some level, he was hoping it was just a rumor. There was never a shortage of them. If he believed half of them, Hawke would be linked to Anders, Isabela, her own brother, the Coterie leader, several templars, Meredith, Orsino, Sebastian, a high dragon, and the Arishok. This was probably a shitty rumor too.
