Lady Pentaghast sighs placing her hands against the cold stone, glad for her thick leather gloves that are keeping her fingers from turning to ice but still wishing she could be in back in the warmth of her Requisition Office or even better in front of the fire in the Great Hall. She stamps from one foot to the other, trying to keep warm as she leans forward against the low stone wall looking down into the training yard. From here she can watch the Inquisition forces being drilled but still manage to keep out of the way. She glances up at the grey sky that threatens to drop snow on them at any moment before looking back at The Spymaster that mirrors her position next to her. Leliana wraps her scarf tighter around her neck smiling at The Seeker, she too looked cold but they were both wrapped up in their coats and gloves so they could be outside.
"Find a Fortress in the Mountains they said," Leliana mumbles adjusting her scarf further. "It will be safe and protected from attack." She adds with a snort. "They didn't mention the cold though did they?" The Spymaster sighs wrapping her arms around herself.
"I hadn't noticed." The Seeker says turning to give her a smile making Leliana laugh and shake her head. "Maybe you need to find a warm body to keep you from the cold at night," Cassandra adds with a smirk. "I know I've hardly noticed the change at all, having Lord Trevelyan to warm my toes." The Seeker smiles again turning her attention back to the yard.
"I am sure your toes are not all he warms." Leliana giggles leaning against the wall again, she looks down into the yard at what has got Lady Pentaghast's attention so strongly and sees that the Inquisitor is currently giving out orders to some of the men and having them run through some drills in front of him. "I think the warmest of bodies is currently attending to your needs." The Spymaster adds glancing to her friend again receiving another laugh from Cassandra.
The Seeker watches as the Inquisitor places his hands on his hips watching his army, now and then commenting on something they are doing and adjusting their actions. Commander Cullen walks around the edge of the formations also giving out orders and showing off his men to their leader, he keeps glancing to his friend for approval. Cullen approaches the Inquisitor and leans in to say something to him causing Lord Trevelyan to nod and leans back to give his response. Cassandra smiles when she sees The Inquisitor pat The Commander on the shoulder laughing at something he has said.
"Tighter formation." Commander Cullen yells over the noise of his soldier's boots that are stamping in perfect time, crunching into the icy grass. He glances to the Inquisitor again when Lord Trevelyan gives him more orders, nodding in agreement and understanding.
"He is very handsome," Leliana says nudging The Seekers shoulder with hers, drawing Cassandra's eyes away from the Inquisitor who is standing proud with his arms across his broad chest again.
"He really is," Cassandra replies quietly suddenly feeling herself blush when The Inquisitor notices her watching him, he nods his head to show he has spotted her and brings his hand up from where his arms are crossed in a small wave. "I'm not supposed to distract him." The Seeker adds giving her lover a smile that he returns, still pretending to be official and in charge. The Commander notices The Inquisitor is no longer paying attention and looks up to see that they have an audience.
"Who is handsome? Are you talking about me again?" Dorian asks when he moves to join the pair leaning over the wall himself, he looks down into the yard at the Inquisitor and then back to Leliana and Cassandra. Cassandra watches him draw his long leather coat tighter around his body, placing his own gloved hands against the stone.
"We were talking about the Inquisitor." Leliana giggles when Dorian creates an 'Oh' shape with his mouth before puffing a cloud of his breath into the air. Cassandra feels herself blush again suddenly having all eyes on her lover, she knew he was perfect and very much admired everywhere he went.
