Title: With her
Fandom: Dragon Age
Character: Leliana/Neria Surana
Prompt: Needs
Rating/Category: T/Femslash
Summary: Neria only needs this, to have some time with Leliana, to have the strength to do what she needs to.
Neria is, by necessity, an expert at hiding and moving without being noticed. She has been keeping herself out of sight for years, wanting to find a cure for the taint rather than be embroiled in the political problems around them, and although she has helped others where she could, she doesn't want to be a leader anymore.
She was so young when all of this started, and even before she didn't have her life as her own. She can't stand to be just a symbol, she needs something more than that.
“Skyhold is surprisingly hard to infiltrate, should I commend you?” she says, not having any illusion that Leliana wouldn't notice her there.
Neria might be an expert at hiding, but much of what she knows, she learned from Leliana.
“Not too hard, I'm the only one who noticed you came here,” Leliana says, approaching her slowly.
Neria can't hold the pretence anymore, she runs towards Leliana, nearly jumping to her arms. After this long away, she needs to hold her wife, and enjoy the few moments that they might have together before she has to leave again.
“I missed you so much,” she says, burying her face on Leliana's shoulder.
There's nothing that Neria can't face, no challenge that she can't get past, as long as she can have this. She needs Leliana by her side, if not every day, then as often as she can have her. That's all that she needs to be able to do everything that is asked of her.
