Summary
Lucanis had never been so amused watching someone eat. She paused as she considered every bite, sometimes halving it, like she worried about taking too much though none of her bites could be considered anything but diminutive. She chewed thoroughly, vigorously, always with her fingers pressed to her lips to shield herself. She savored, letting out quiet little sounds of appreciation.
“Is that thyme?” she asked suddenly.
“It is.” He was surprised she could detect it. He had used the barest sprinkling, just enough to tame the bitterness of the onions.
A stirring in the back of his skull, movement from a phantom that had held himself so strangely patient that the absence of him was more jarring than his presence. Cook for her more.
A spark ignited in his chest, a need.

Or sometimes a family is a Hunger demon suffering from a long bout of humanity, her Dalish daughter, a demonicly possessed assassin, and the kooky aunts and uncles they've amassed along the way.

A gorgeous story. Rook's journey is epic in scale and emotion. Gull is my favorite.

I am so attached to this Rook; she is so sweet. Manfred and Emmrich are adorable together. The Deaf/HOH representation is very well done, imo, as someone with hearing loss.

Summary
“Hi Manfred,” Rook says. “Nice to meet you!”
Rook looks like most people look. She is person-shaped and has a head with hair, but beneath that, she is brimming with curiosity. He feels drawn to her, in the same way he had been drawn to Emmrich once – when Manfred was shiny and small and not yet called Manfred. He has a good feeling about this. It’s new. It's exciting. He already agrees with her.
Nice to meet you too! he hisses.***
Short and sweet scenes showing Manfred’s perspective on events of the Veilguard, and on the budding romance between Emmrich and Rook.

Manfred's voice is absolutely charming. Wonderful characterization. Expands on VG and the characters in such satisfying ways, Rook included.
