When you're in unreality and forget fall damage is a thing so you end up in the hospital after attempting to fall from 13ft off the ground because you'll "just land on your feet"

Haha! I love this!

Cue "Every breath you take" by The Police.

VR adventures continue! I found a mod that lets you go on vacation with your spouse (among other things) and immediately decided I needed to do silly little Solrook collage.

I love this. Perfectly said.

there is So Much that compels me about solrook, but i think one of my favorite aspects is that rook sees the worst parts of solas

his regrets, of course, but also him. the way he behaves, the way he betrays them, and betrays them, and betrays them again-

like ofc the inky sees this too. but what they see of solas is so much gentler, barring the route where he hates them. and they know him for so much longer than rook does, see so many different sides to him, have him by their side in battle, rely on his wisdom

he betrays them, too. he's lied to them the whole time. he's manipulated them and the world. but i think it's somewhat easier for the inky to find something in him that is worth pursuing, to try and stop him without trying to destroy him

but rook? he shows his worst face to rook. he is cruel, dismissive, condescending. he's brutal. and at the same time, they're seeing under the armor, they're seeing the deepest regrets of a man who is fundamentally shaped by his regrets

i just think a rook who chooses him after all that - in whatever way - is so compelling

now, of course he's not just shitty to/around rook. they see moments of vulnerability, and he does work to help them. a rook who chooses certain dialogue options implies that they wanted to trust him and be trusted by him, that they valued the time they worked together, that they wanted to earn his respect

and as much as an inky pursuing him romantically after Everything would shock him, i think a rook pursuing him romantically would shock him even more. he wouldn't trust it. couldn't trust it. until he does, and he realizes that someone who saw the worst of him still chose him, not out of ignorance, not out of naivete, but because they saw something worthwhile in him despite everything

and that is profound

I love DA, ME, BG3. Can anyone recommend me games like these? With romance options? 💓💓

[lyndibs]

Okay but why be sad when you can have Assan watching butterflies?

[lyndibs]

Oh my goodness! I NEED all of the chibi Solas'!

my brain: ok my next piece of merch should be something with mass appeal

This is adorable!

Wanted a link to all my cringe 2024 Dragon Age mini comics compiled in one place lmao

[lyndibs]

This is adorable. I love how Rook's legs are draped over his lap. 🥰

A Solas x Rook commission for @julie-fd, and also an illustration for her fic Dread Rook ❤

This is further fuel for my "Jenova is in more control than we are led to believe." theory, that I have believed for YEARS.

Like everything since Remake came out has just add more and more to it.

Sephiroth redemption arc.

Wait what—

My Rook (Ever) with her future husband Solas.

Created on the PICREW creator above.

@elvhenquyen Thank you for sharing the link to the art creator! 🥰

[lyndibs]

Imagine Rook sitting in his chair and then meditating to enter another fade date with him.

I will see myself out.

The fact that I cannot sit at Solas's desk in the Wolf's Den is the true failure of this game.
