I guarantee the answer isn’t no

played DA2 for the first time and romanced the possessed bisexual poor little meow meow who's totally down for firebombing a walmart

Hawke being left in the Fade is heartbreaking...

but it's so dramatic, and it's just so HER.

(EDIT: forgot to add, lyrics Mitski, "Francis Forever")

The reasons I love the bug where Zevran can rock up in DA2 and DAI's war table mission despite the player having chosen to kill him in DAO is because I remember the unbridled glee gamers had at killing him for flirting with their male Warden.

The reason I dream of Fenris, Anders, and Isabela receiving equitable consideration and dignity in discourse is because I remember the response to their characters outside progressive bubbles.

Anders had a whole homophobic manifesto written about him and sent to DA2's head writer (who's gay btw). Gamers would be proud of handing Fenris back to his slave owner because Fenris was 'difficult'. (Of course the recently escaped slave is prickly and angry). Certain fans still enjoy telling you how they kill 'the terrorist' on every Anders post, evidently because of his actions, transparently because he's a mentally unwell queer "SJW" they feel vindicated in killing. Any mention of Isabela must also apparently include slut-shaming when promiscuity is a fine response to being a former child bride who's free of their cruel and possessive husband. Isabela fearing commitment and being sexually open is not an invitation for dehumanization. I play DA2 with the polyam mod, so I could be wrong, but I always felt Isabela and PurpleHawke were well matched there anyway.

We've come far in terms of accepting diversity in videogame storytelling, but cycles of controversy around queer romance, diversity, and sex in videogames is an old one. The difference being that the industry has mostly stopped catering to conservative and contemptuous discourse now and for that I'm glad.

In both Origins and Inquistion, the party is a collection of strong and interesting indviduals, with varying levels of chemistry and compatibily with one another, all working under your command in order to save the world from Archdemon/Corypheus.

In Dragon Age 2, the party is a collection of toxic bisexuals, all hanging out with their one mutual friend as they hunt down insane wizards and corrupt cops

My next pride request is done 🌚

[milton-chamberlain]

i love your art. whats your process like?

I decided to take Marian as an example! I draw quite simply, first a sketch(sometimes even without it, I just draw from the spot), and under the sketch I draw the color.
