    Summary

    You and me, Wei Ying had said. Jiang Cheng is going to take him at his word.

    Command says that the first neural link is the one that stands out the most, the one that everyone has to be the most careful of, because a navigator’s thoughts can get tangled up with their pilot’s and become inextricably linked. Entangled.

    Summary

    At first, the Iron Bull is just writing poetry to Dorian because it's a fun way to tease him—he gets all huffy when he's pretending he doesn't think the lowbrow stuff is funny, and besides, he started it by making it a Vint-versus-Qunari thing. It's only fair for Bull to needle him a bit.

    At first, Dorian is only writing back to Bull because he can't let him win. The pride of Tevinter's literary tradition (not to mention his own dignity) is at stake here, and he will not be beaten at metaphor by someone who thinks cattle-related puns are an appropriate way to seduce someone.

    And that's all it is. At first.

    Summary

    Rolan thought things would be different once he reached Baldur's Gate.

    Instead, he finds himself struggling to prove his worth as a wizard.

    “I’m not pretending to know you, Rolan.” Gale lets out a shallow sigh, “But my eyes don’t deceive me. What I see is an apprentice wizard working as a shopkeeper, too untrained to cast even the simplest of spells!” Gale isn’t shouting, but his tone is stern, almost like he’s scolding a cat.

    Rolan has held his composure through verbal assault, through beatings, but this?

     

    Pity?

     

    Pity is the last thing Rolan wants.
