[Pfft, what's knocking between almost-siblings? Apparently, the concept is unknown to Marian who bursts into Hawke's small room unannounced, with her puppy on her heels, yapping excitedly.]
[it's not late, but it's a few hours later than he normally gets home. Anders walks through the door, shoulders slumped and looking tired; in fact, he looks like he might fall asleep standing soon. Not, of course, that he has any intention of going to bed just yet. He's got a few more books with him, and looking them over will take priority.]
[ WELL this is not something he'd like to have to tell Hawke, but he feels responsible. So, in the midst of all this pirate nonsense, he shoots Hawke a quick text ]
[It's early morning, or what passes for early morning on the ship, and Anders has actually dozed off a few times. He's also woken up every time Hawke has moved, but he's still been able to get a little bit rest, and he's feeling just a little bit better as well.
But by now, he's also starting to feel hungry. He checks the time: Hawke has been sleeping (on and off, granted) for over eight hours. But he'd been truly exhausted, as well, and he might need more. Anders frowns, and then tries to dislodge himself from Hawke's grip. If he can get to his pouch, there should be an energy bar in there.]
[Oh look, there's the dolphin pool. And oh look, Anders is stripping. It's been a while since he's had a chance to swim, so he won't be waiting for Hawke if he's slow.
[Anders is having some trouble. He'd wanted to go find Hawke, but as it is, he's not even sure if he's on the right floor. He's not even sure if he cares, because as far as he can tell, there's a cat not far away. It's a big thing, black with white paws. He's crouched on his knees, reaching out to it.]
You're a beautiful cat. Come here. I just want to say hello.
[Cats. Cats everywhere. That seems to be Anders' problem today. Especially since they have a tendency to disappear into thin air whenever he touches them.]
[When Hawke gets back from whatever task he's been doing for whatever stranger he ran into today, he might notice an overturned coffee cup on the table, with a cat sniffing curiously at its spilled contents. And there are also splashing noises coming from the bathroom.]
No, Pearl, stay in. Here's the ball, you want to play with the ball?
[If he decides to investigate, he might notice a coffee-stained shirt on the floor. And an equally coffee stained pair of pants. And a nearly-naked Anders crouched over the bathtub.]
I'm not sure you should be drinking the water you're bathing in.
[It isn't often that Anders makes it home before Hawke, as normally he doesn't even think about leaving work until his lover shows up to drag him away from there. Today, though, has been an exception. Not only is he home, but he's passed out on the bed, where he has been for the past several hours.
It's a risky business, in their home. The first to take advantage of it was Maleficat, who jumped up neatly to hide behind Anders' head. Occasionally he would paw at the hair still trapped in a hair tie, but Anders didn't stir. And following Maleficat was Pearl. She jumped up near his feet, and, when she wasn't told off for it, quickly bounced her way up to his chest. She licked his chin a few times (no response), and then licked Maleficat, who startled back but didn't really mind, and then both pets fell asleep.
Apawstate found her way later. Anders' lap was still free, after all, and perfect for a lazy little kitten. Clearly, all three animals agreed, he'd looked lonely. And he'd forgotten to use a blanket. He might have gotten cold, had they not saved him!]

It's a risky business, in their home. The first to take advantage of it was Maleficat, who jumped up neatly to hide behind Anders' head. Occasionally he would paw at the hair still trapped in a hair tie, but Anders didn't stir. And following Maleficat was Pearl. She jumped up near his feet, and, when she wasn't told off for it, quickly bounced her way up to his chest. She licked his chin a few times (no response), and then licked Maleficat, who startled back but didn't really mind, and then both pets fell asleep.
Apawstate found her way later. Anders' lap was still free, after all, and perfect for a lazy little kitten. Clearly, all three animals agreed, he'd looked lonely. And he'd forgotten to use a blanket. He might have gotten cold, had they not saved him!]
