I wonder how many heart-attacks Blackwall and Solas have per day when Cole is around.

what makes me feel crazy about neve is that as a human mage of such wit and style and sheer talent—a less academically focused mage than emmrich or bellara and yet capable of some of the greatest feats of raw power in the game, yes i’m still not over her ice dome from the intro holding off shots from the archon’s palace—she absolutely could have gotten out of dock town. maybe she’d never have the life or titles of someone born altus, but she could have made it to somewhere comfortable. she’s the one person in dock town with a ticket out, with the unexpected gift that every tevinter non-mage dreams their children will have... and yet she’s still right there working late into the night in one lonely, run-down apartment after another, because these people need her. because nobody else of her ability has ever stayed for them. she tells herself every day that it’s probably a doomed fight, trying not to get her hopes up and her heart hurt, and she still stays!! i wonder if some people there resent her for having that chance and not taking it. she talks about having cut ties with at least part of her family. do they resent her for not taking the chance (and letting them share in the spoils)?

Just to check we are in agreement that the ritual went wrong because Solas stabbed Varric and not because Rook dropped a statue on him right?? We all saw that everything was "fine" until he did that right???? That the dagger was made to bond with ancient elven blood so it went haywire with Varric's and that's why the tear exploded right??????? We did notice that every time the fade opened in this game was because of the dagger getting in contact with blood RIGHT??

It's SO funny that the Inquisition was, essentially, mostly a bunch of liars.

Varric is an unreliable narrator who according to Bianca tends to make up stories about what he wished would have happened. The Iron Bull is a Ben-Hassrath who will mostly act the same whether you've sacrificed the Chargers or not until *that moment* in Trespasser. Vivienne, while always frank in her opinion of you, is also absolutely a master of The Game. Sera runs with the Friends of Jenny, appears immature and pulls pranks on people, yet she does it with such skills that she is rarely caught. Solas is Solas. Blackwall/Thom Rainier? NO ONE does it like him. The advisors are not exempt either. While Leliana is obviously a spymaster, Josephine can and will destroy someone's reputation with nothing but a glove planted somewhere compromising. And Cullen? Is really cagey about his time as a templar. Even the Inquisitor is a fraud. Willingly or not, you gain an army because people believe that you are the Herald of Andraste. Which is patently false.

Then there's Cassandra Allegra Portia Calogera Filomena Pentaghast, Seeker of TRUTH. Cole, whose job is to blurt everyone's secrets aloud. And Dorian, who left the nest of backstabbing vipers that is Tevinter, only to traipse through sand and snow and mud with this organization of lying liars.

Its actually hilarious how many things the warden saw in person back when everything was a mystery, and understood mostly fuckall shit nothing because we were busy conscripting. We found Andrastes ashes. We talked to Brother Genitivi. The guy who sold us discount merch is probably the first dwarven mage in centuries (idk). My wife birthed an old god. There's at least 10 centuries-old questions I probably found answers to in the deep roads, but I am just a little man and ultimate cosmic knowledge is not my problem.

obsessed w neve's body language. the little hand flounce when she turns. the still, ramrod posture when she's sitting down. I need a 30 minute compilation of every time she does that thing where she daintily holds her hands in front of her. my heart is literally speeding up wtf wtf

obsessed with the parallels in the neve romance

from “you know me” “do i?” to “the neve i know cares more about dock town and the whole damn world” “is that what you know?” to “you know me—i’m trouble”

from “trouble’s not always a bad thing” to “you know…i think you might be trouble” to “have i told you you’re trouble?”

from the numerous iterations of “i’m here for you” to “the gods can break that promise for you” to “before we go…i love you”

from “and if it’s already too late?” “don’t tell me you’re a lost cause” “i might be” to “i waited. finding you was a lost cause, but i would catch myself waiting.”
