The realization that Viago sent Rook De Riva away not because he was angry (though he was very angry) but because he knew the other Talons were angry and he needed to protect Rook from them is real punch in the gut.
Viago got Rook the hell out of Antiva and then had to spend that time making sure no one was going to try and kill Rook for blundering such a major operation. Death was a very real possibility for what Rook did and yet by the time Rook gets back everyone is just like, ‘oh hey, it’s you. Viago missed you.’ Of course everyone knows that, Viago had to fight to make sure Rook didn’t get a dagger in the back for their actions.
Some of Viago’s anger is probably less ‘how can you be so stupid and mess up our operation’ but ‘how can you be so stupid and almost get yourself killed’. Viago really meant it that if Rook got themselves killed he would come after them in the fade and I think that is perfect.

A couple of crows just chillin’, possibly with some Netflix. I painted this extremely bisexually, which means equal opportunity cleavage.
For @acatinabox of her Rook Fosca with Lucanis.

After their fight against the gods is done, after the Veil is once again secured, I imagine Rook wanting to do something for Lucanis - something special. Especially since they finally can. After much deliberation (approximately 15 seconds and a side glance at the wyvern-tooth dagger sitting carefully on Lucanis' night stand), Rook has a wyvern-spotting adventure planned. A bag sits ready with camping gear, food rations, a wyvern species encyclopedia, a journal and all the art supplies they could find within a few hours.
Convincing Lucanis takes less than a minute, and the next thing they know, they’re hiking across the Orlesian wilderness.
The first wyvern they spot will be permanently engraved into Rook’s memory – whether that’s from the beast’s presence or from Lucanis’ reaction is up for debate (is it really, though?). Regardless, Rook will inevitably become an expert on that particular species of wyvern.
“Rook!” “Rook.” RookRookRook, look!” “ROOK.” They swear that last one was Spite, but Lucanis calls out them every few minutes during their adventure, each time a wyvern so much as blinks funny. There, Rook is witness to one of the biggest (and longest-lasting) grins Lucanis has ever displayed. Eyes bright, body practically buzzing with excitement as they crouch behind cover. Rook doesn’t know if anything can beat the feeling pounding at their chest.
Rook reaches an important conclusion, they fucking love wyverns.

Thinking about how Illario expects his cousin to be the silent, brooding killer. About how Lucanis has never had a serious friendship outside House Dellamorte, and he's also just spent a year imprisoned, so of course Illario would assume Lucanis is still unsociable and awkward. He's always been that way. Thinking about what if Illario asks the other companions about Lucanis when they stop by the Cantori Diamond, and has to do a double take when someone says, "Oh yeah, Lucanis is hilarious. Always has something funny to say."
And Illario is like??? Lucanis? My cousin Lucanis? Is making people laugh? On purpose?
Bellara goes on a tangent about the book she's reading, and how Lucanis had such a good interpretation of the villain's motivations and it made the ending so much sadder! She's never been in a book club before, she's so happy Lucanis suggested it.
And Illario quietly mouths the words "book club" to himself because, aside from contracts, when has Lucanis ever joined any kind of club?
Of course Taash thinks Lucanis is just the coolest. Antivan Crows are already pretty cool, but a Crow with wings? Who's teaching her how to say good one-liners? Fuck yeah, Lucanis is awesome!
Then if an unromanced Emmerich starts dating Strife, he nearly gives Illario whiplash with the comment "Lucanis gives excellent romantic advice, especially with gifts." Because surely we can't be talking about the same Lucanis. The same Lucanis who has never been in a relationship, and the one (1) time he tried to flirt with Viago -- by *sending a gift* specifically -- Viago either ignored it or took it as a threat. Did the demon do this? Can demons make their hosts charismatic?
Davrin calls Lucanis a "fun drinking buddy." Harding appreciates how concerned Lucanis is that she's being fairly compensated for her services. Offers to lend her his contract negotiator, show her what other people are charging for the same services, he's really so sweet.
And a romanced Rook. Most people make insanely hot Rooks, so Illario watches, completely baffled, as Lucanis manages to pull that. Or if not that, Neve Gallus. Just. how?? Lucanis made one step out of the Ossuary and fell into a Pit Of Friends. All it took was like one month away from Caterina's influence (and the prison) to turn Lucanis into a guy everyone likes being around. How did this happen. When. How the hell is Illario suppose to defeat his cousin if his cousin is armed with the power of friendship? (He can't. Illario is very much defeated by Lucanis' power of friendship.)

choosing to fix veilguard by having the veil jumpers find hawke in the fade and having the mourn watchers bring varric back to life/him not be dead bc solas has him in the fade prison hidden in a coma and a redeemed solas helps save him so he and hawke can live happily ever after đŸ«¶đŸŒ
