People always say to just ignore the rumors since you know that inside that they aren't true. But...When those rumors are about you and your love life, it becomes all too hard to ignore.

When your relationship with the Iron Bull accidentally became public after Cullen, Josephine, and Cassandra walked in on you two snuggling in his bed the rumors began to spread like wildfire. It was embarrassing when the most uptight people walked in on the two of you in bed, but it was even worse when the people you're supposed to be leading is saying horrid things about your relationship!

You know you shouldn't be ashamed of anything you and Bull do, but when people say things like how he's manipulating you due to him being Qunari or things like that you're basically his slave instead of his partner...It's disheartening to say the least.

As a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions began to consume you in the comfort of your room, Iron Bull quietly walked up behind you with a worried and caring expression on his face. "Kadan? Are you alright? You seem quite stressed." He whispered to you in a gentle tone, his hands moving to your shoulders as he started to work the knots between them.
