Sarliah ventured into the tavern and was immediately hit by the smell of booze. It was welcoming. She climbed the stairs and made her way to Sera's room. She had received a note that only read:
Inquisitor:
Got something to show you
Important
Sera
(at the bottom was a crude drawing of Sera and the Inquisitor sitting together)
Sarliah rapped her knuckles on the door and an invitation to enter was heard. She stepped inside and found Sera sitting with a box.
"Inquisitor! I made more cookies for us," Sera said with a grin. "Maybe they won't be rubbish this time." The two of them climbed through the window and sat themselves down on the roof. Sera grabbed a cookie for each of them. She counted down and they ate their snacks simultaneously. They were rubbish.
"So much for that. At least I tried," Sera said, not all that disappointed.
"It's not a total waste. I have an idea for what we could do with them."
The two ran back to Sera's room, out of breath. They rested on the seats and waited for air to return to their lungs.
"All right, Inquisitor," Sera wheezed. "Whatcha got?"
"Hidden under Blackwall's sheets."
"Is that it?"
"He was sleeping on top of them."
"Well, I'll still come out on top. Look at Bull."
"He's fighting with Krem..." Sarliah said as she concentrated on his details. "You got them on his horns? You definitely win, Sera."
Before Sera could start congratulating herself, the Inquisitor offered a double-or-nothing round. The goal was to hide cookies on Cullen without him realizing. The two of them walked to his office, giggling like fools the entire way there. He was planning troop movements and was surprised by his love's visit.
"Hello, darling," he said, kissing her on the forehead, "Hello, Sera."
"Cully Wully," she answered, not holding in her mischevious laughter very well. Cullen sent her a confused look before turning back to Sarliah.
Now the game could begin. Sera took the hiding-behind-him approach and Sarliah took the distract-him-with-your-cuteness approah. Sera glided over to the commander's bookshelf and attempted to look nonchalant. She turned around and saw that her partner was already working her magic. She could tell that she was ready to make her move, so Sera swooped in to take the prize. Almost like magic, Sarliah twisted her fingers and a cookie appeared. She swiftly left it in one of the various pockets in the back of Cullen's armor. Leaving the scene of the crime, she pecked his chin and left with Sera.
"Good, Inquisitor. Should have picked Leliana."
