Hawke and Beckett

"You know what all of that tells me?" Kate asked, though it was a hypothetical question and one that she was going to answer for her even if Marian didn't want to hear it. "That you're a damn good person, Hawke. A lot of people would just be angry that they had been lied to and leave without bothering to help, but you didn't. And that's impressive."

A soft spot for pathetic creatures? She had to grin at that, hiding most of her smile behind the glass that Kate again took a sip from. "We weren't quite that adventurous," she replied. "Not in the beginning. The first time I met Castle, he was a suspect in a murder investigation and once I cleared him of any involvement he wanted to hang around and help us solve the case. That turned into his using friendship with the mayor to follow me around while he "researched" a character for a book he was writing." Kate rolled her eyes, barely able to contain her smile. "And I hated him for a long time. But he kept coming back, no matter what I said or did, he never left me alone."

And from the soft, loving tone in her voice, she was thankful that he hadn't. Richard Castle's persistence was a large part of why they had eventually gotten together.

Hawke and Beckett

Beckett's complimentary assessment of Hawke's nature was flattering, the kind of flattery she usually dodged or deflected with words. Instead she ducked her head for a moment and shrugged one of her shoulders.

Far more interesting to her was the story of how her new friend had met her husband, and Marian couldn't help but let out a chuckle, "Maker, do you know - I have friend back on Thedas named Varric and while I didn't have to clear him from any sort of murder charges, he really DID follow me around from the moment he met me onward, simply so he could write his book. 'The Tale of the Champion' is famous across Thedas now. That little dward owes me, but I suppose I don't really mind."

Varric was her best friend, part of that family that you choose, and she thought there could have even been something between him if he hadn't been clearly in love with someone else. "Oddly, Fenris and I had that sort of persistent thing going on, too. Though usually it was him hating me and me showing up at his estate to poke him into doing this or that. I'm a Mage, you see. And so was his former Master, so even though he needed me and was grudgingly grateful for my assistance, there were a lot of issues there."
