Can we talk about Davrin in Davrin’s arc.

How beautifully it ties together his role as a warden vs. his nature as a gentle boy who would sing to halla. Halla who don’t give their trust to just about anyone.

How it examines the hardening of heart under the pressure of being the shield between the world and the blight that Davrin refuses simply because he’s too kind and too caring and too sweet despite it all.

How him choosing to call a blighted monster by her name says more about him that anyone else; how he chooses to be humane over anything else. I would trust his judgement of monsters vs. non-monsters simply because he’s willing to acknowledge humanity where everyone else would see a monster (as does he, at first, when he lacks information).

Davrin’s arc is beautiful. It’s not about Assan or Isseya, it’s about him — these two are important because they say something about him. The beautiful soul that encompasses the true calling of a Warden. But also, the heart of a halla.

cullen's crush on f amell/surana drives me insane. is he the first templar to have taken interest in you? have you been dealing with this your entire life? how long has this been going on? how long did it take you to notice the extra pair of eyes on you in the hallway? does he know you or does he just think you're pretty? did he mean it when he said he'd kill you? do you believe him? do you find yourself alone in corridors with him often? is it a coincidence? is he one of the good ones? is he stronger than you? whose side will the knight commander take if you have to defend yourself? is it worth it? how many of your friends have survived a situation like this? how many haven't? what are your odds? are you feeling lucky? are you sure?

Varric: I made the choice. To talk to [Solas]. To try to reach him. Even knowing the risks. Because he was my friend. My decision. My sacrifice. And you don't get to take that from me.

And here's the other side of that "you have to let people choose" theme I've talked about before. Varric chose to speak to Solas rather than just try to disrupt the ritual, he chose to move into stabbing range to try to physically interfere in the ritual after Rook brought the statue down, and in this run he chose to do both of those things after his second-in-command expressed serious concerns about his plan. It was a stupid choice that got him killed... but it was his choice, not Rook's, and they're not to blame for the outcome. I especially like how Varric flips it around into Rook taking something from him by blaming themselves, because it was his choice and they don't get to claim responsibility.

Davrin's dates being about going out in the forest are extra cute with a Shadow Dragon Rook bc Davrin saw Minrathous having 2.5 trees total and concluded that yes, Rook does in fact need to touch grass and relax
