You shouldn't be here says a small petulant voice at the back of his mind, one that Hawke resolutely ignores as he raps on the door to Morrigan's apartment. They still need quota, so it's fine. It's good, actually. He's helping a friend. He can't abandon Morrigan just because he's not heard of the results of his talk with Juno yet. This isn't a situation where their feelings have changed, so really it would be horrible if he did turn Morrigan down.
Nevermind that they don't need traditional quota anymore, or that they both have multiple other less complicated partners that don't have this pall over the relationship, or that they're both going to feel poorly when they're done. Absolutely nevermind that.
Look, he's not perfect, even if he tries his damnedest. Sometimes you just need to... Not try.
He's smiling when Morrigan opens the door, though still with his hand stuffed in his jacket pockets as he stands back up straight from leaning on the walkway railing.
