Duplicity AU: Justice for a General

[apurrstate]

The same meeting, the same turn of events, but Anders and Alaric navigate their relationship with a righteous fade spirit as a +1

((Changes include: Hawke is female, didn't romance Anders but supported him, not a CRAU. Basically what would have happened if he'd been apped Clean-Slate and how would their CR change.))

"That will teach you, then." He says it, but he already knows it won't matter.

He will rain praises and adoration on Alaric when the mood takes him, small moments to ensure he knows how often Anders thinks of him, larger ones so he can have a taste of how deep these emotions were already running in such short of time...when he can. When the moments he wishes Alaric weren't with him so that he remained safe didn't overcome his thoughts. When the push from Justice didn't make everything else seem like it had to be secondary or everything would go wrong. He doesn't say it, doesn't dare, but he ca already feel parts of his heart offering themselves to those grey eyes looking back at him. It's been no time at all and he's already lost, no matter Justice's approval.
