"I know I could have. But I wanted to try. I wanted to prove that I could handle it, even though I'm small." Her eye squints a little, a visible sign that she's not sure she wanted to word it like that. "Little? Oh, you know what I mean."

"I'm pretty sure at this point you don't need to prove anything to any of us," Cullen murmurs, leaning in to press a kiss to the side of her neck gently. "You did kill a dragon, after all."

"Mmm." She closes her eyes, swaying against him. He should do that again. And again. And again.

"Four of us killed a dragon," she replies softly, kissing his jawline and tilting up her face to reach his ear. The kiss there is a little more ill-placed, half-missing his earlobe because she's off balance and it's dark.

"Damn, missed. Stop moving. Or I'll stop moving." Someone's moving, and it's ruining her aim.

He smiles again, turning his head to capture her lips gently.

"Four of you," he murmurs. "And I'm glad I didn't hear about it until afterwards."

"Believe me, we would have avoided it if we could have done so. Well, not Bull, but the rest of us. We ran right into it." Ellana's faced down some terrifying things, including Corypheus and his dragon, but that doesn't mean she brushed off the encounter like it was nothing.

"I'm glad to be back here, in your arms."

"I'm glad you're back, too," he points out quietly. "Now, more than ever."

Not that he ever wasn't glad when she came back from dangerous missions, of course.

"Come on, you really should get some rest..."

That gets a whine from Ellana. She doesn't want to rest if that means he'll leave. She wants all the alone time together she can steal. But she does slowly draw back, taking his hand in hers.

"If you insist, but I won't be happy about it."

Her hand is small and warm in his, and he gives it a gentle squeeze. "You'll probably be even less happy when you wake up with a hangover," he points out with a faint smile. "But you still do need to rest. When you feel better, you can drop by my office and scold me all you like."

"Do you think I could just... skip the hangover part?" There's a hopeful note to her voice, even though she already knows the answer to that. So instead she starts up the stairs, a little wobbly, but able to make it with his support.

"I don't think I could scold you. I wouldn't want to see your face go all sad."

He's more than happy to help her up the stairs, hand at her elbow, ready to gently grab her if she threatens to fall.

"I don't get sad when you scold me," he protests, laughing a little.

That makes her look up with wide eyes.

"But when have I ever scolded you?" She can't recall ever doing that with him. Usually the only time she's not one hundred percent positive with him is when she doesn't go along with one of his ideas, despite his explanations.

Unless she has been doing something that's come across as a scold.

"Uh."

Okay, that's a good question. He can't think of an example now. "Okay, if you ever did, I wouldn't be sad. Because no doubt you'd have good reason."

"The best reason," she agrees, leading him up the rest of the stairs where her room spreads out before them. Someone's been kind enough to light her a fire for the night, the fire screen in place so it could be left unattended. Now it's a little brighter and she turns, taking his face in her hands.

"Now I can see you better! Look at this handsome face!" She presses a kiss to his cheek with a smacking sound. "So, so handsome."

He smiles a little, his hands resting at her waist again. "And your face is beautiful. The most beautiful," he murmurs.

"Aww!" Ellana is overwhelmed on hearing that and she just has to kiss him again, forgetting all about the horrible alcohol taste in her mouth. Luckily for him, she doesn't push her tongue into his mouth, just presses her lips to his.

When she pulls back, she takes a moment to trail her fingertips through his hair. Then there's a bit of a whine before she speaks.

"I want you to stay, but you won't, will you? Because you're a gentleman and you wouldn't take advantage. But I just want you here with me. There's nothing wrong with wanting that, is there?"

Cullen smiles, almost sheepishly. She knows him well, that's for sure. He's not certain enough yet of their relationship - of his own feelings, really - to be ready to take things further, even if she were sober, which she's not.

He cups her cheek, gently. "If you like, I can stay until you're asleep. Would that be acceptable?"

She rubs her cheek against his hand, humming happily. That's a compromise she can get behind.

"Please. I'd love that."

"Alright." He still honestly can't believe his luck, that she feels for him what he does for her - that she wants him, that she cares like this. It warms him, even when she's away from Skyhold now.

"Um, let me get you a glass of water. You should lie down," he offers after a moment, realizing he's just sort of been - gazing at her. Like a lovestruck puppy.

"Mmm, I will. Once my feet touch the ground again." Because she thinks surely she must be floating above it. Her gaze lowers and she sees that, no, actually her feet are on the ground after all. Imagine that. So she slowly lets her hands fall away from him and heads over to the bed. She tries to toe off her boots, but the laces make that impossible, leading her to sigh and try to untie them.

When he turns back with a glass of water in his hand, he has to laugh a little at the sight of her fumbling with the laces of her boots.

"Do you need help?"

She looks up with a pout, the lace now a tangled mess.

"I don't know where it all went wrong. I'm trapped. And here I liked wearing boots." She picks at the tangle, but there's no making heads of tails of it.

"Help, yes."

He sets the water down on the table next to the bed, and kneels down to untangle the laces, chuckling a little.

"You know - correct me if I'm wrong but I was under the impression many elves don't wear shoes, as a rule. Especially Dalish," he says conversationally, his fingers working deftly at the knots. He's good at putting on and taking off complicated armor, after all.

As he does that, she occupies herself by playing with his hair. It's soooooo fluffy!

"We don't. That's why I liked the boots: they're different than what I'm used to. Our feet are tough but it never feels good to run over rocks. Boots help. Like you're helping me now."

Fortunately, he likes having his hair played with - at least, when she does it, in private. He hums a little at her touches, smiling.

"It does seem a little impractical, depending on the terrain and weather," he points out. "Would - would they look down on you for wearing them? The others of your kind, I mean."

"Yes." Her voice is soft as she answers, her hand stilling in his locks for a moment. "But I've done plenty they wouldn't approve of. Boots are the least of it."

They would probably look the other way about her wearing boots when it came to the bigger taboos, like telling Cullen about things the Dalish wanted kept secret from other races, and, well, like her being in a relationship with a human. That was something that would get her kicked out of her clan. If her clan yet lived, that is.
