Alistair surprises himself: he adapts to the Basin a lot quicker than he expected.

The camps feel -- snug, he decides. In a good way. Trees overhead, a limited number of egress points, a vantage point so high it puts every night by the ladder to shame: they're not the stone walls of Skyhold, but maybe they're the next best thing. After an initial restless night or two, he sleeps soundly.

(Knowing he's surrounded by lots of people with sharp, pointy weapons? Also helpful.)

Joining the patrol rotations seems like a decent next step. No point in being in the field, especially after all that training with Bull, if he's just going to twiddle his thumbs all day.

A low laugh. "I feel safer already."

Cullen hums, content.







"Better?" Softer.

"I found out Harding can skip a stone seven times before it sinks," he says, thoughtful. "That's about it, really."

"How many can you get?" he demands.

(His mouth is twitching.)

"We'll find out." As ominously as possible. "And I'll get more."
