#“kindly remove your knife from my neck” AWOOOOOOOOOOOGA

[mythalism]

my #1 fear with da:v is that they woobify and romanticize solas and rob him of the qualities that make him the dread wolf, fen'harel, great betrayer and bringer of nightmares etc. etc. etc, the kind of person who killed an old friend who got in his way, who orchestrated a successful but bloody coup, who mercilessly hunts down and kills mages who bind spirits, who we would have seen drag a low-approval inquisitor through an eluvian and shut it on them to chop off their arm if time had allowed, qualities like his cunning, ruthlessness and, most importantly, arrogance, in an attempt to make him more palatable to a new audience or to win over the players who have decided they hate him for those same reasons. but every time we get new footage of him being an conceited, condescending asshole (affectionate) like in vows & vengeance i am so so relieved <3
