Hawke supposes she should have expected Fenris not to rise to her teasing, but it's still a stark reminder of just how somber this meeting really is. Silence falls as she turns to lead him away, a silence filled with a deep-seated sorrow in both of them. Hawke always knew that her death would hurt each of her friends, her sister in particular, but seeing the result here brings that pain to bear in full measure. At least Bethany is not the one speaking to her right now. Hawke isn't entirely sure she would be able to hold herself together through the waterfall.

So she lets the trip be as quiet as possible, almost like a normal journey out into Kirkwall in the middle of the day, watching people as they pass and listening in on conversations. But soon enough, she's walking up to the house and letting them in.

"Fenris," she says softly as she closes the door behind them and leads them into one of the bedrooms on the first floor. "You should know. Inquisitor Trevelyan is here." She knows all manner of vengeance that could be on his mind for letting her die, so she pushes past any protest he might offer. For once, she ignores someone else's thoughts just long enough to make her point. "Try not to blame her for what happened, Fenris. She didn't have a good choice to make in the first place."
