( skyhold | rotunda ) [ naturally, most of the time, solas is easily found in the rotunda, and this morning is no different. seated at the table he keeps most of his work spread out over, there's a cup of tea steaming and evidently forgotten at his elbow, and he seems to be frowning thoughtfully at the newest part of the fresco he's been slowly adding to. the sound of footsteps brings his glance up, blinking as if coming out of sleep. for a moment, two, there's no real reaction, but then he offers a quick, polite smile. ]
I apologize, I was-- well, wool-gathering, as the phrase seems to go. Did you need to speak to me?
[ and then he apparently remembers his tea, and lifts it to take a sip (and make a disgusted face). ]
I'm not entirely convinced that I'll ever find tea that I enjoy.
( skyhold | etc ) [ technically, solas can be encountered any number of places in skyhold-- if you can actually catch him. he seems to know the fortress extremely well (perhaps he's explored it during his dreaming), and so he apparently knows all the shortcuts and all the little tucked-away passages most people have yet to find. it means that while he shows up here and there, he tends to pop up and then disappear just as quickly.
maybe he's in the gardens, eyeing the chessboard speculatively; or in the kitchens, trying to reassure one of the cooks that no, he doesn't need more than this roll for dinner, thank you, it's plenty, no, he's not too thin for his height??; or maybe out on the ramparts, doing something vague with measurements and magic. whatever the case, despite his apparent ability to ghost around skyhold as he likes, he's never unwelcoming or unfriendly.. as long as he's given the same courtesy. ]
