Alistair had located food enough for dinner from the kitchens. The supplies there were looking a little low, and they'd been here long enough for it to be clear that the food wasn't replenishing itself. So that was worrisome. They would probably need to start rationing soon, something he undoubtedly should speak to Cullen about. Later.
Back in their room, he set out the bread and slightly mealy looking apples and cheese, and then made the bed, stoked the fire, went wandering through the castle and found a rather large bathtub (big enough for the both of them, he thought, if they squeezed a bit, which would certainly not be the worst thing in the world), which he succeeded in dragging back to their room with more effort than he was keen to admit to. He went and fetched water enough to fill it, figuring Neria could warm it whenever they felt like actually using it.
And then that was pretty much everything distracting he could find for himself to do. He supposed he could go and find Anders, or Sigrun, or even his king self, all of them would be pleasant enough conversation, but then Neria wouldn't know where he was, and he wanted to be here for when she came back. It served the double purpose of letting him know she wasn't back yet as well, so he could go down to those dungeons and stab that old bat in the face, if need be.
He perched on the edge of the bed and folded his hands in his lap and bounced up and down lightly with impatience.
He probably should have just insisted on going with her.

"I had no confidence on me. Or my magic. And I had to give great leaps of faith about trusting the others. I don't really miss this part of the Blight."

Date: 2015-09-08 08:52 pm (UTC)From:Alistair hummed around the food in his mouth, then chewed a few times and swallowed before he answered.
"Well, I, for one, would have followed you anywhere, stutter-y and mistrustful and all. And now?" He tugged her closer to him by a hand on her waist, and bent to brush his lips over her ear. "Now you've got that Commander voice down pat, and it does all sorts of interesting tingly things to me."

Date: 2015-09-08 09:01 pm (UTC)From:"Oh, interesting tingly things, I see." she kissed him, passionate, wanting, and pulled away then, fond smile curving her lips. "I won't ever be able to thank you enough for being there for me." then she add, with a smirk "Though I'm still waiting for the remigold dance."

Her hands rested down his sides, gripping the fabric of his shirt.
((ooc: yay, pc woes! we surely don't get all the games, but we get all dlcs at least! xD))

Date: 2015-09-08 11:04 pm (UTC)From:"Ah...you know..." He flushed scarlet, from his ears to his cheeks and all down his neck, and then bent to brush his lips against her temple. "Sometimes, while you were away, and I was imagining how I would touch you when I got you back, sometimes I'd think about you...telling me how to please you, commanding me. It's very...hmm..." He bit his lip.

Date: 2015-09-09 12:05 am (UTC)From:Neria gaited all the way to the bathtub, dipping a hand in the fresh water, fingertips shining with a fire magic to warm it. Once she was done, she settled on the bed edge, back turned to Alistair, stretching the wet hand away from her. She cleaned her throat and waited.

Date: 2015-09-09 12:35 am (UTC)From:"Yes, Commander," he mumbled, bowing his head. He crossed to grab one of the towels he'd set out on a chair by the tub earlier. Unfolding it with a flick of his wrist bordering on a flourish, he knelt in front of her and held it out meekly.

Date: 2015-09-09 01:02 am (UTC)From:He moved quickly when she spoke again, offering her his hand to hold as she stepped into the tub, reaching for a washcloth and the bar of soap as she got settled. He held up the soapy cloth a moment later, waiting for her to lean forward so he could get her back before he followed the second half of that command.

no subject
Date: 2015-09-09 01:30 am (UTC)From:The lithe muscles of her back twitches under his touch, especially when he reached a few ticklish spots, but she managed to held back the laughter by moaning and sighing instead, provoking him. "Ah, yes, right there." she purred when he scrubbed the middle of her shoulder blades, rolling her shoulders under his touch."
no subject
Date: 2015-09-09 01:37 am (UTC)From:This, though, pleasing her, touching her in ways that made her sigh - he'd already known what that did to him. He moved the cloth back to the spot between her shoulder blades, dragging it just slightly softer against her skin than before.
no subject
Date: 2015-09-09 01:56 am (UTC)From:"That's good enough." she leaned, resting her back in the tub, all of her naked body visible now, water running down her breasts. Stretching her right leg, she placed her heel over the edge. "Now, legs."
Her eyes were dark with desire, but she was holding the act far better than she expected. To tease him, to see him comply every order had an... appeal she had never really considered before.
