IVE DONE IT - a new sweet baby Rook 🤲🏼🥹

Meet …

Cahir “Rook” Thorne!

Human | Grey Warden | Warrior | Non-binary {He/They}

This is my first human Rook & I actually LOVED how he turned out 😭 I honestly think they turned out extremely well for having only made Elves in my past couple of playthroughs (I will definitely be making an Elf version of him teehee)

I’m still working on a backstory, but I think I’ve convinced myself that somehow and in someway Cahir is the child of Hawke (I say this because Cahir looks SO good in Hawke’s armor) anyway, I’m so happy to have another Rook into the loving mix & now Cassius has a lil friend! 🥰

(not me finally figuring out how to make the hair look good either teehee)

"Mira, si me hubiesen avisado con mayor anticipación no habría escogido la primera sugerencia de Pinterest" en realidad, había sido ella la que postergó su búsqueda por un atuendo original hasta última hora, habiendo volcado todo su tiempo libre a salir de fiesta. Al final, se resignó a improvisar con su propio armario y acabó con algo que se asemejaba al look de Natalie Portman en Léon. "Pero bueno, ¿de qué andas tú?" dirigió la conversación hacia su contrarie. "Creo que no lo reconozco"

                      she’s  been  scrubbed  clean  from  front  to  back  ,  unfamiliar  with  the  sensation  of  it  —  of  whatever  they  call  the  prickly  sticks  they’ve  used  to  clean  her  back.  still  shuddering  and  feeling  rather  giddy  at  the  same  time  ,  the  mermaid-turned-human  is  brought  down  with  wobbly  and  hesitant  footsteps  to  meet  the  royal  family.  or  at  least  one  of  them.  ‘’  your  ...  your  highness  ,  ’’  sofia  slowly  bows  ,  trying  not  to  lose  her  balance  again.  not  in  front  of  him.  ‘’  it’s  an  honor  to  meet  you  ...  ’’  again.

forever thinking about royal’s bad ending. my thing with it is that maruki doesn’t necessarily give anyone what they want most, he gives them what’s most appropriate for them to want within a maruki-approved framework. iirc there’s a really interesting text sequence in the game where he just straight up changes someone’s career because they’re not “good” at it, regardless of whether that’s what they actually want. why struggle at all? ever? right?

and so ultimately i don’t think goro akechi’s greatest wish is necessarily ren. i think it’s a wish for sure, but his greatest wish is his own agency. despite any regrets he has and the fact that shido and yaldabaoth treated him like a pawn, he's generally pretty adamant about owning his choices and their consequences. he doesn't want that erased. and instead, you end up with pleasant boy™ if you take maruki’s deal. maybe maruki (incorrectly) thinks sanding off all of akechi’s rough edges will make him easier for ren to love. but the crux of it is really that maruki has to essentially lobotomize him to preserve the illusion of his perfect reality, because their ideologies are so diametrically opposed that akechi would spend every waking moment fighting back.

this isn’t to undermine ren’s importance to akechi btw — he explicitly acknowledges that he wishes they had met earlier, and there are countless moments throughout their confidant that underscore how much it means to him that they mirror each other so well. he absolutely does want more time with ren, just not under these circumstances.

and that’s also what makes ren’s choice on 2/2 doubly devastating. he knows that either way he loses akechi. and if he takes maruki’s deal, he loses him knowing that his last moments with the real akechi involved the two of them being unforgivably out of sync.

TPoH: Update!

Read the new TPoH Update here!

Read TPoH from the start here.

Thank you for your patience but there will be NO UPDATE next sunday... because it's xmas! I got family and friends and yuletidey plans. We'll be back on the 5th of January, see you in 2025! I'll try to draw something for the big day, too.

Have you still not got your cute cosy Assok socks, or a dazzling butterfly pin? Head on down to Topatoco town and introduce yourself to my store for books, shirts, stickers and more! Oh, and you can always support me on patreon for little extras

suguru looks at you and thinks he could tell you everything.

it's tempting—how you hold his gaze when others normally avoid it. anyone else and their eyes dart away immediately, blurring him into the background. not with you though; with you, he exists in central focus.

there's a strand of your hair that's fallen out of place, and he reaches to tuck it behind your ear, quickly. it's a trick, a sleight of hand that conceals the tremble of his fingertips.

(your breath hitches when he grazes your cheek.)

the noise in the cafe is a symphony of indistinct chatter and soft alternative folk music, with ceramics clinking as the constant underlying beat. none of it is supposed to go together, but it carries the ambiance in its harmony.

he leans in closer when you speak.

you continue your story, off on a tangent already; his head tilts to the side, a finger to his temple as he nods along, lips curling at the edges fondly. this same look has made others nervous, flustered, but you seem unfazed; meeting him eye-to-eye overtly.

which isn't normal.

and if he's being truly honest with himself, none of this—what he's doing, thinking, how he's feeling—is normal.

suguru believes in secrets, that some things are better kept to himself.

but, it's one look into your eyes, at the way you regard him so unlike everybody else that has him wondering how you'd react if he tells you you look pretty instead of nice today—how you are pretty much a frequent visitor to his thoughts lately.

(you talk and talk and talk because you can never tell what he's thinking—mysterious smile matched with an unnerving stare is a combination too deadly.)

he doesn't do 'brunches'—it's either a late breakfast or an early lunch, pick one—yet he finds himself seated in a cafe at 10:27 a.m., having one with you.

the lock to his chest has been tampered with; if he dusts it off, he'll find your fingerprints, left behind unknowingly. you are innocent until proven guilty, but his lips, usually shut tight, are now slowly unzipping; it's you, the root of all this.

if he tells you he likes looking at you—might always want to—would you consider having another brunch with him? to stay longer in that suspended in-between of breakfast and lunch time?

(you blink, suguru still leaned in, listening.)

(if you tuck a strand of his hair behind his ear, will his breath hitch just the same?)

for @rinniessance; a lil birthday gift for you angie bby! (i might be a lil early posting this... oop!) i've never written sugu but wanted to try for you 🥹 ily you beautiful soul!! (not a birthday fic itself but i hope i gave a decent characterisation of him! 🥺)

thank you notes: @mysugu @soumies for helping me try to figure this man out 😭
