That had to have been magic. Marian could almost smell it, but glancing around gave her no indication of the source. There weren't any spells that just made you magically dry on Thedas, though now Marian wondered why not. Maybe she needed to do some more research when she got back to the ship.

Her fingers tangled up into her hair, and she winced a bit as she tried to comb it down. "I'm going to have a very long talk with the Maker about why it is I have absolutely no way to magically dry my own clothes. And... I see your shirt's still off. Please feel free to keep it that way."

"I think whoever did that just saved you some money," Lucifer said, reaching over for his shirt, but not putting it on. Instead, he just sniffed at it, and determined that it smelled clean enough. Given what that he'd been wearing the same few shirts for over a month, he could live. He also didn't want her to actually feel guilty. That was his dad's game, not his.

He did leave the shirt off, though.

"If it makes you feel any better I could buy you something nice to wear, anyway." Marian suggested, with a shrug. Just for curiosity's sake, she gently took the shirt from his hand and took a sniff of it, wondering what it was his nose was searching for. The water did have a sort of odd smell to it compared to what she was used to.

She shrugged, and handed it back. "I wish whoever'd helped had made themselves known so I could buy them a drink. Perhaps they knew I was already willing to crawl underneath a rock and die."

	Lucifer looked over at Hawke, and then slid closer to her. "What's the use in being embarrassed?" he asked her. "Won't change anything." He finally pulled on his shirt again, but left it unbuttoned. "Also I got to be a hero. Again. And I can tease you about it whenever I want," he added with a smirk. "Which, you want to be a dragon?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

There was a brief glimpse of oddly shaped scars on Lucifer's back, which Marian raised her eyebrows at for a second or so. He'd never mentioned them and she assumed the cause was something private. She remembered Fenris and all of his, and decided not to say anything for now.

Instead, she shrugged a shoulder at him, and then casually bumped her side against his, "I don't know, haven't you ever wanted to be a dragon? Alright, alright, the truth is we were rescued by a woman once who could shape-shift into one. Another Mage, but one that's so powerful she usually only exists in legend. And she wouldn't teach me the Dragon trick, and I was very cross."

Lucifer laughed. "No, that's never been on my wish list. Break free from my father, escape hell, those were. I did the latter a few years before I got here, but I'm still not sure on the former. Besides you don't need to be a dragon. You just need to learn to swim. And that's easy, if you don't panic."

He glanced at her and then at the rest of the boat. "Look, everyone's moved on. No one's paying us any mind now."

"Your father sounds like an arse. No offense, of course. I often wished to break free from the hell that was Kirkwall though, and then I ended up here. So I suppose I can't complain too much." Especially considering Lucifer's company.

She glanced around the boat, glad that all the attention was no longer on the two of them. Despite that, she smirked at him and said, "I'm surprised, naturally. You'd think a man as good looking as you would be worthy of attention, especially in this state."

	"I could bloody well kiss you for that," Lucifer said, draping his arm around Hawke. She was shamelessly flirting with him, but it was referring to his father as an arse that endeared her to him completely. "I get plenty of attention," Lucifer mentioned. "I'm alright without it now."

With the arm draped around her, Marian thought it was okay to do a bit of casual leaning against him. "Not the kind of man who enjoys the limelight? I don't blame you. I got more than enough attention before I arrived here, myself."

Then she added, after taking a quick breath, "You could, you know, if you were waiting for my permission."

Her tone was mostly teasing, just in case. A week ago they'd had the kind of tension between them that was so thick it could have been cut with a dagger. At the time they'd both been skittish for various reasons, and though she didn't know what his were she figured offering consent couldn't hurt.

"Oh, I rarely shy away," Lucifer replied. "But on rare occasions I do enjoy not being the center of attention. This is one of them. Especially after the table incident..."

Her next statement, however, caught him off guard, and he turned to look at her directly. "Drinks later," he said simply. He could bloody well kiss her now, and it wasn't for lack of interest that he stopped himself.

He wasn't ready to make that decision just yet and she should know why.

That sounded ominous, but this definitely wasn't the time or place to discuss ominous things. Marian nodded head a bit, trying no to make too big a deal out of... whatever it was. A private matter, she figured. She had enough of those to understand, at least a little bit.

"Drinks later, then," She replied, then flashed him a smile. "Until then, why don't we just enjoy the rest of the boat ride? Safely, from here. Where I won't fall overboard again."

"Oh you won't fall overboard again," Lucifer agreed, tightening his hold on her. "I mean, if you do, I'm not getting back in that water so I think it's best you just stay here with me."

He had no idea what pull Hawke had on him, but it was new and different and fascinating, and Lucifer was feeling much more at home now that he'd acted out, an edge to him that had been missing.
