Posts like this are so important. So many people have passed through my life that I clung on to because I thought they were the best I'd get, or the only ones I could find, but when they leave and I hear perspectives like this it really helps me to realize the kind of people I need to be looking for. And how I need to, in turn, treat others to attract similarly kind souls. It's kind of hard to be honest, having to grapple with the fact I'm not as kind as I always told myself I was. But it's very important to me to try harder every day to become the person I need in the world. Whether for myself or the attraction of others.

Sorry for waxing poetic here I'm sure this is out of the blue for me haha

Me for weeks now: “Sure feels like people are co opting talking points about the writing from bigots without realizing it.”

Like three days later guy gets loudly racist and ableist because I had the audacity to *gasp* love Veilguard.

there’s something profoundly childlike about solas’s inability to grapple with the inevitability of change.

spirits don’t seem to undergo the developmental stages mortals do, and solas’s reaction to the shifting world around him almost feels... puerile. he watches the evanuris (as former spirits) change—granted, for the worse—and the elves evolve from manifesting bodies to procreating and inheriting them. in light of all these varying transitions, he thinks: “if I can just remain as Wisdom, i’ll be fine. i won’t be like them.”

but he does change. and he is like them. possessing a sort of intuited fore- and retro-sight doesn't mean anything when the choices you're making for other people also destroy the world.

during cole’s personal quest in inquisition, varric isn’t solas's counterpart due to “bad writing”, which i've seen some people argue. varric is The Storyteller, the narrator who frames entire games (da2 and veilguard). stories are a wisdom of their own, and varric knows this. he knows the power of alchemy and transformation, and how these processes are necessary to round out subjective experience. he is the perfect guide to help a changing spirit like cole reconcile those changes with his original nature.

yet even when you do encourage cole to embrace his spirit-origins, it is not enough. only when cole actively chooses to forget original!cole does he regress to a “purer” version of himself. until then, cole remains in torment over what he could've done for original!cole had he the support and resources. there is no alchemizing. there is no substantial transformation. there is a total or "complete" lack of catharsis, because—

—cole, even after forgiving original!cole's murderer (like a spirit would), finds that simply forgiving is not enough to make him like he was. and so he once again stands at a crossroads: integration of his new-found humanity or self-inflicted memory loss. full embodiment versus purification of the self. and solas, by contrast, doesn't choose either of these.

instead, solas clings to his regrets (like a child would a blanket) as well as his identity as Wisdom while refusing to fully embody the world he’s a part of. to me, solas becomes like an adolescent trapped in stasis and terrified by the idea of change in a world that he does not actually understand: “i am of Wisdom. i am in pain. i must not change.”
