Dear John

DA Kink Meme Prompt:

So, Zevran's romance is bugged in DA2. My M!Warden (Amell, but could be any of the humans or elves) romanced him fully, and then Isabela propositions him in DA2 and off he goes to have sex with her, so it got me thinking:

Deep down Zev has never believed his Warden (or anyone) could truly love him, and he's been waiting for the other shoe to drop ever since he realised he was in love with the Warden; he betrays his lover with either Isabela or Hawke in DA2; then he goes back to him and tells him about it, that it was inevitable and that he really is just a whore. He's expecting to the Warden break up with him, but his lover realises that Zev is unconsciously trying to sabotage his own happiness, trying to conform reality to his expectations, and refuses to play that game. So the Warden tells a stunned Zev that he's forgiving him because he loves him too much to allow Zevran to purposefully ruin what they have, but that he'd very much appreciate it if the elf were to refrain from further attempts at sabotaging their relationship, because forgiving him doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt to think of him with someone else. Cue happy ending.
