It's been weeks already since they've arrived, and last weekend I finally managed to take some nice pictures to show them off - my second Plushy OTP, Ruth van de Graaff and Jim Raynor, as made by plushy magician @tokutenshi-crafts 💕💕💕
And of course they were joined by Plushy OTP No. 1, i. e. Rona and Din ^_^
Once more I'm amazed at the details!
I mean, look at Jim? The tattoos, the cigarette pack, the grey streaks, the skull on his shin bracer? THE TACTICAL VEST IN ITS ENTIRETY??? Marvelous, and most excellent!!!
(He actually also has cuffs/gloves, but I had forgotten to take them with us on this day..)
Also, if you look closely, Ruth's right arm is shorter because she lost her right hand. Aaand her pilot jumpsuit is removable! Aaaand her luscious locks with the undercut are mighty enviable 💕💕💕
I love them all very much 😌🤗
Thank you so much @tokutenshi-crafts for bringing my OTPs to such lovable plushie life 💕💕💕

Rona Norgreen - Just as one would expect, I guess? First syllables stressed, that is.
Dinlas'al'ras - deen-las-AL-ras, third syllable stressed, the ee-sound of the first syllable very short, like half as long as how you would say Dean
I’m curious: How do you say your OC’s name?
I love reading about people’s OCs but I suspect I’ve been mispronouncing many of their names in my head when I read them. So, would you indulge my curiosity and reblog this with a pronunciation guide for your OCs in the tags? If you’re reading this, whether you follow me and whether I follow you or not, this means  YOU! I would love to know what your characters’ names sound like!

The MLP!AU continues with Din!
Doesn't he look handsome? 😍
He's a mechanic and can repair things. So this actually turned into some sort of AU of the bookshop!AU xD

Miss Ladybug!!! Thank you for asking ^_^ 💕
I perused my Goo Drive and I found this thing which I had totally forgotten about but now I have the RoDin feels again and want to finish it:
~~~~~
Din was excited. He wanted to show something to Rona and looked around for her on her usual spots. He finally found her with a group of new "recruits", the ones who survived Rookie week, and the aftermath.
He observed her showing them some blocking techniques, and smiled. They looked grumpy, but hung on her lips. She was good at that. it's not what she wanted, he knew that, but it's what she had in this moment and she was working with it as best as she could.
Still, in the last few months since she got out of isolation, he had noticed changes in her. More harsh, more grumpy. She had never smiled a lot, but she even smiled less now.
He worried that Milligan's plan, as far as he understood it, would succeed.
She locked up so many things, and he knew that they would explode at some point, maybe leaving nothing behind to be mended.
He wanted to cheer her up, show her something to look at and imagine a better life.
Rona noticed him lingering in the back. She'd become quite good at feeling where Din was. And whenever she felt him near a little smile would creep into her face, unnoticeable for most, but Din would see it. A slight "come on" gesture from him, a little nod from her. They've been spending so much time together that they could read each other quite well.
Rona gave the recruits an exercise task and left the training yard, Mira at her heels.
The mabari ran up to the elf who knelt down to receive sloppy kisses. Mira whined in delight as Din scratched that spot on her left flank.

Hiiiiii Jo, thank you for checking in! 💕💕💕Here's this comic idea I sketched about Rona's escape from her imprisonment in Milligan's Pit:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Rona, Din and Mira the Mabari are close to the secret tunnel's exit, when a bloodmage activates the demon that is bound to Din with a magical branding (Rona has one, too, but it doesn't "work" anymore due to interference from another spirit). She doesn't want to fight him, so she tries and chokes him in a headlock and leaves him behind, not sure if he's actually still alive...)

Hey miss Mappsie! Can I ask for number 11 for Rona & Din, 22 for Ruth & Jim, and 29 for both ships from the ship meme please?? 💕💕
Miss Ladybug! 💕💕💕I’m sorry thinking about this took so long o_OAlso, this is just the first half of it, to reduce the WOTness (I got carried away…. xD)
So here’s for Rona and Din first:
11. What do they hide from one another?
They met when Milligan added Rona to his “stock of fighters” in the Pit and assigned Din to teach her how to fight. They didn’t like each other in the beginning, but over time a mutual respect and friendship grew. Slowly but slowly they fell in love, too, and this they hid, as best as they could, to keep each other safe. There wasn’t any open acknowledgement about this until later when they met again in freedom.
So they’ve been through hell together and seen each other at their worst, thus there’s not much left to hide from each other, at least from the past ;) But, what Rona does hide from Din is that there is still a little tiny spot in her heart for Milligan. Yes, she does hate that two-faced megalomaniac bastard, but before he showed his true face, he was the one who listened to her and what she wanted after her mother had her locked up in the convent. He was the one who helped her to escape and laid the world to her feet. It was with him that she felt free, alive and happy for the first time in years. So yes, she does have fond memories of the time, and she does mourn this, but she never tells Din.
As for Din, I’m a bit stumped because he usually wears his heart on his sleeve, and that’s why answering this took so long. He tries to hide when he is overwhelmed at times, the sun is too bright, the people too loud, their two kids too much to handle for the moment. But Rona knows the signs and keeps his back free. He also at some point starts to take in wandering cats from the outside and tries to hide those at first, but, well, they’re cats and there’s a whole bunch a Mabari/Fereldan pointer mix doggos running about, too, and hiding doesn’t work out too well for long… So… I’m still not sure, if there’s something he manages to completely hide… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
29. Why do they fall a little bit more in love?
Rona’s heart grows a little more every time she sees Din interacting with their kids, be it playing catch in a bundle of children and dogs, or singing the Dalish Lullaby to them, or telling them watered down versions of their own adventures as bedtime stories. 
And Din? When Rona takes charge and as the official bodyguard takes care that Queen Anora and Queen Gwen are safe and when she does things that he knows were outside her comfort zone once, he’s like so superproud of her and basically 
Tumblr media
Also, that nose scrunch she does when she laughs? He just melts. And whenever she scratches and massages his scalp he internally renews his wedding vows while he completely zones out and relaxes.
Thank you so much for asking! This was a good mind juggle ^_^Ruth and Jim are on their way, too, but they’ll need a few more days ;)
I’mma tag, @john-cousland @cdhurricane and @soerdinan

Ooooooh! 3 pens!
Does that mean one gush each for 3 characters, or 3 gushes for one character? ;)
I‘ll go with 1 for 3 and start with Shinji the Dovahkiin:
Shinji loves flowers! Her favourite flower is lavender, and when she first arrived at Whiterun it took her a lot of selfcontrol to not roll around all the pretty flower patches. The space around Breezehome is full of all kinds of flowers - she brings home the seeds from her journeys and tries to make them grow. A lot of them do sprout, and when she‘s home she loves just sitting there and watching the bees and making flower crowns for her and her adopted children – and whoever passes by xD
Next is for Ruth van de Graaff in the Mass Effect universe:
She suffers somewhat from survivor‘s guilt. Her parents died. Squadmates died. Then her brother and her best friend disappeared and she thought they were dead, too, and she felt lost and lonely, always blaming herself, wondering what she could have done better and why in the core of the galaxy she would be the one to survive and left behind alone.
Dinlas’al’ras (in Dragon Age) meanwhile hates to admit it but he was somewhat scared of the Outside before he met Rona.
He was born and raised in captivity (in Milligan‘s Pit) by his Dalish mother. She died in an attempt to escape when Din was in his teens, and he then settled for what he had, which was basically his bare life, wits and fighting skills. So the Pit, the „Inside“, was all he knew - he knew the offcial and unofficial rules and how far he could bend them without getting into too much trouble, and he made himself home as good as he could. He‘s heard of the „Outside“ only from tales from his mother and other captured fighters, and everybody told something else about it, so that in his mind it was an everchanging place of unforseeable chaos, and since he is somebody who needs a structured environment, the „Outside“ scared him.
Thank you so much for letting me gush, Lúa!
I‘mma tag @john-cousland, @spaceborn--vagabond and @soerdinan for these tidbits, too ^_^

Yesterday I made myself tear up thinking about how Rona and Din would die (of old age, rather than in battle), so I needed some happiness today for my two lovebirds.
More under the cut.
After a (relatively) long life, Rona would fall sick, and when it's obvious her end draws near, all her loved ones would gather around the bed: Din of course, heartbroken already, but still trying to cheer everyone up, their children Layla and Flynn (maybe even with their own families), Morrigan, Anora and Gwen, Alice Amell, maybe even Leliana, Sten and Alistair. And a pack of ragtag mabari mixes. They'd all say their quiet (and/or slobbery) goodbyes. And in a far corner Rona would see her old friends who already have passed: Mira her trusted mabari who had passed many years ago and left an empty space that couldn't be filled; the Lady in Black who in all her spiritness had adopted Rona and helped bring down her own son; Falon'uvenia, Din's mother who planted the seed of immeasurable love into Din's heart which grew despite the dire circumstances he had to grow up in and in turn saved Rona from herself and others uncountable times.
A last long sigh and gone she is and Din, used to Death as he is, would not be able to keep it in anymore. The others would leave silently to let him mourn, Layla would bring a blanket. In the morning though, when she'd go check on him, she'd find him lying half on the bed, Rona's hand clasped, dead.
So they both would be buried under the same apple tree where they had already put Mira and Hunter.
And now I'm teared up again, dammit ;_________;

I can only chime in with @gwen-cousland
These are all so beautiful! ❤
And even if their happy ends may never come, we now have something to look and sigh wistfully at ^_^
Thank you so very much @john-cousland! ❤❤❤
I've been staring at the RoDin pic whenever I can ^_^ I love Din's little smile, and Rona's hand on his neck does things to me, and it is now my established headcanon that both of them like headscratches, and whoever gets to lay his head on the other's lap in a quiet moment will get to enjoy a gentle scratchy head massage.
Oh, and Rona also scratches her head herself to calm down at times.
So there, some morning happiness ^_^
