"when they arrive at a designated safe place, the sender refuses to be examined or cared for until the receiver is taken care of first." for anders x hawke hehehe

I am a monster and you're getting a bit of a cliffhanger *kiss kiss* for @dadrunkwriting ~~~

"Stroud, please!" Anders pleaded. "He would make an excellent Warden, I promise."

The other man shook his head. "Anders, your promises mean nothing."

"Look, it's -" blue light flared "-we will turn ourselves in."

Stroud took a step back. "Justice?"

"I confess. I killed Rolan and the Templars he allowed into your ranks. Take me to the Commander." Justice picked up the Blighted man leaning against him heavily. "And I shall carry your new recruit."

"If you insist," the Orlesian sighed. "We will take you and . . . your friend back, but I make no guarantees for your safety or well-being. Either of you."

Varric caught his arm. "Blon - Blue, are you sure about this? His family -"

"They will know we did all we could." The spirit started after the other Wardens.

"Justice, wait!"

He paused and looked back as Bethany ran up. She kissed his cheek. "Take care of him." Then she ran a hand through her brother's hair. "Don't you dare die, Malcolm. You hear me?"

Malcolm mumbled something about fruit under his breath and shivered. Justice nodded sharply, then continued after Stroud.

Justice was, as usual, indefatigable. But mortal bodies still needed rest, as he had learned in their flight to Kirkwall. When the others stopped, he did as well, placing Malcolm down with as much gentleness as he could manage, then relinquishing control back to Anders for him to eat and drink, try to ease Malcolm's symptoms, then sleep.

Three - four, he reminded himself - Wardens could make good time through the Deep Roads, and they were climbing out of the sunken ritual tower where Anders had helped kill a sentient crazed broodmother in mere days. Justice stopped coming out when they were on the surface: too much of a risk of being executed on sight by any Templars who might see them; Warden colors hadn't stopped them before, and wouldn't stop them again.

He continued to carry Mal. Didn't want anyone else to touch him.

"Is the Commander -"

"Theron is in Antiva," Stroud replied gruffly. "You will have to wait."

"Mal doesn't have time to wait."

"Varel and Nathaniel can conduct the ritual in his absence." Stroud kept moving. The other two Wardens glared at him but didn't say anything. They'd barely spoken at all, and definitely not too him, but they didn't feel like Templars, so he ignored them.

After another couple days of travel, Vigil's Keep loomed in the distance. Mal was getting weaker, and the mage had to resist the urge to break into a run. It would just get them both killed if he showed up without Stroud to explain. It might get me killed anyway, really.

Malcolm Hawke deserves freedom. I know, I'm not angry about that, I'm angry that we had to choose between his and mine - ours. He clutched Mal close, wiping sweaty hair from his brow. This was all Anders’ fault, from the moment he agreed to give him the Deep Roads maps.

The flag above the keep bobbed and a horn sounded. They'd been spotted, and the Wardens would likely be sending people out to meet them since Stroud wasn't returning empty handed. Well, okay, he was empty handed, but Anders wasn't.

It wasn't Nate who rode out to meet them, but the bloody King.

Alistair looked tired, but wary. "Anders?"

No reason to prolong the inevitable. "Mal needs the Joining. Just . . . let me make sure he's okay, then do what you want with me."

"I - you're - what?"

"Just get him the blasted cup, Alistair!" Anders snapped. "We'll deal with the rest of it later."

"Give him to me."

"No."

Alistair sighed and pinched his brow. "Fine." He got off his horse and handed the reins over to Stroud. "You and the rest go on. I'll take the . . . recruit and the -"

"Captive," Anders spat.

"Nug droppings," Alistair retorted. "I've seen you fight." He gestured to Mal. "Who's this?"

"Malcolm Hawke. Long dull story."

"I'm sure. Well, let's get him fixed up. You sure I can't help carry him?"
