Happy Fridayyy for DADWC: "I don’t judge people on their worst mistakes" and/or "going home isn’t an option anymore" for Hawke/Loghain?
thank you for the prompt gin!! I leaned into the first one for @dadrunkwriting tonight :3
-
It had become their spot, this abandoned dock that no one frequented. Sometimes she brought the booze and sometimes he did, or on days when things were particularly bad they both showed up with a bottle.
Today was one of those days.
Siobhan lowered herself to the half-rotted planks with a groan, kicking her boots aside so that she could dip her toes in the murky shallows lapping out of the cove. At her side, Loghain grunted, hand wrapped loosely around a bottle of whiskey almost half-gone. His grip tightened slightly as Siobhan settled in with a sigh.
"Don't worry," she smirked, pulling a paper-wrapped bottle into view. "I brought my own."
Loghain huffed, bringing his bottle to his lips. "It's just like that today, I suppose."
"Maker, it is."
They sat in companionable silence as the sun slunk down below the horizon. Finally, as dusk overtook the docks, Siobhan pressed herself firmly against Loghain's side and leaned back on her palms.
"So. Why are you drinking tonight?" she asked, head tipped back to look up at the stars. Loghain stole a glance sideways, lingering when she made no attempt to meet it. Her cheeks were wine-flushed, her eyes glittering in the moonlight. Her hair was mussed, as was the fur that adorned her neck, both a victim of her carding fingers.
"I spent the day in the alienage," he finally answered, a low, regret-filled rumble. He glanced away as she canted her head to look at him and brought his bottle back to his lips.
"So Merrill told me."
"Oh?" Loghain huffed, almost a hiccup, cleverly concealed against the lip of his whiskey bottle. He pressed his lips together, holding his breath until he trusted himself to speak evenly. "I'm surprised you came here, even so."
Siobhan swung her legs up onto the dock, tiny droplets of water staining the sun-dried planks. She sat crosslegged and stared directly at him, so there was no escaping her scrutiny except by taking another drink.
"Dwelling, then? That's as good a reason as I've ever heard for drinking."
Loghain closed his eyes, ran his teeth over gritty teeth. His regrets from the Blight were numerous, beyond counting. The Warden-Commander had told him to cease lingering on what he could not change.
None of us will ever forgive you, Tabris had said. You cannot live for that. Find a way to live for yourself.
Pretty words. But some days it was hard.
"I know what happened in Denerim, if that's what you're chewing on," Siobhan said casually, tearing at the paper that still encased her wine. "Not much worse you could have done to the alienage, from what I hear."
"No," Loghain grumbled. "There isn't. I thought differently at the time but--I was wrong."
Siobhan smirked, a caustic, cynical expression sharp enough to kill any of the bandits starting to awaken in the shadows. "Aren't we all, at one time or another."
"How can you be so calm?" Loghain challenged. He set his bottle aside with a pointed clink and it wobbled, not enough liquid left in it to immediately stabilize. "You count elves among your friends, the former slave well known for his hatred of Tevinter hunters."
"This is a very good wine," Siobhan offered. "And Fenris is out of town."
Loghain finally caught her cracked-marble eyes and all of the challenge they held within. He opened his mouth to decry her dismissal of his failures--then closed it again, unsure.
"You sold Ferelden citizens into slavery?" Siobhan said, a question that didn't sound questioning at all. "Well, I gave control of the city to a red-lyrium-crazed lunatic and murdered one of my closest friends in a fit of anger. Let's see which of us history remembers as a hero, hm?"
"Neither of us, if we're lucky."
"I'll drink to that," Siobhon snorted, raising her bottle to clink against the last of his whiskey. "I'll drink to that."

Gloria 'Ria' Hawke exists thanks to a gift exchange last winter which gave me glorious (pun intended) Hawke/Loghain brainrot. I fell so hard for this Hawke that I started a Dragon Age 2 playthrough to get to know her better.
But I wouldn't have been able to embark on this journey without @judithmactir's incredible prompts as inspiration. <3 The resulting fic depicts highlights across a decade of Ria's life from before Dragon Age 2 to during Inquisition.
Like a fire in my blood
Rating: T Word count: 2,358 [complete] Relationship: Female Hawke/Loghain Mac Tir Tags: POV Hawke, Blue Hawke, though she becomes less blue post-DA2, First Kiss, Implied/Referenced Grief, Romance, Age Difference
Warrior Gloria 'Ria' Hawke never asked for a lot of things thrown at her in this life. She doesn't like most of them. But meeting Loghain Mac Tir is one of the few for which she's grateful. And for the kinship with him that eventually becomes something more.
Lothering, 9:30 Dragon
Gloria. What were her parents thinking when they chose that for her? It was too fanciful compared to perfectly serviceable names like Bethany or even Carver. ‘Ria’ fit much better.
So of course Carver called her ‘Gloria’ anytime he found himself losing one of their sparring matches. It wasn’t her fault she could shield bash better than him.
But something felt different this time. More than bitterness laced his tone as he lashed out at her. Perhaps the rumors of a threat to their south—one unrelated to Orlais—had him on edge. Worse than usual, that is.
Thanks to an afternoon downpour preventing escape to the woods, Ria ends up seeking solace among the bookshelves in the Chantry. But not in the boring section where the sisters lurked, with their constant murmurings of Chant of Light this and Andraste that. No, in the realm of stories, stories that actually happened, stories of past Ages and battles and dragons.
Something about her argument with her brother drives her to a well-worn tome, the page edges wrinkled by the passage of time and touch of many fingers. Mostly her own. This book covers the tale of Loghain Mac Tir’s rise from humble birth as a farmer’s son to the Hero of River Dane, a trajectory that drove her swordplay, a trajectory she occasionally wishes she could follow—
“Ria. Knew I’d find you here.”
She glances up. Mud from their own battle still smears Carver’s left cheek despite the rain. “Why did you bother looking?” she snarls, her tone harsher than intended.
“I…” He visibly swallows. “I’m sorry.”
“For what?”
“For yelling at you. When I was mad at myself.”
She blinks. “You don’t usually apologize this quickly.”
“Well, I needed to say that before I shared the news.”
“News? What news?”
“The threat to the south is worse than we realized. King Cailan is mustering an army. I’m joining. I figured you’d be interested too.”
A chance to do something. Something that matters. Of course she’ll take it.

Also going to throw in several recommendations, a couple of my own fics and fics written by others! Mine:
Duty: a Loghain-centric character study presented as a series of vignettes, tracing his journey from before the Rebellion to the events of Inquisition. (The last two chapters cover the events from the Blight onwards if you want to skip ahead to those!) [~6k, rated M]
The Point of No Return: A Loghain/Hawke fic set during the events of Here Lies the Abyss, which (among other things), digs into the parallels between Loghain and a red Hawke who sided with the Templars. [~2k, rated T.]
By others:
All The Words Meaning So Much More by tejaswrites: a beautiful fic exploring how Hawke and Loghain even got acquainted in the first place, and their subsequent bonding over their similarities. [~2k, rated T.]
look, the cup of my pain is already poured out by congratsyouvegrownasoul: an absolutely gorgeous fic set from Fiona's POV during DAI where she and Loghain talk about their regrets without explicitly... mentioning them... (because there are so many parallels between the two of them that people don't talk about enough and this fic just. handles it SO well. [~2k, rated T.]
Wooden Swords by missjlh: a tender scene between Kieran and Loghain at Skyhold, as Loghain reflects on his past and readies himself for his future. [1k, rated G.]
Does anyone have fic recs that involve a warden!Loghain?
I am finally doing a playthrough where I recruit him and I realize I've literally never read a fic that included him.
Preferably set during DAO, but any type of warden is fine!
#fic recs#i have read several of these and they are all excellent top tier loghain fics!!#and as for the others#to read#loghain mac tir#i should do a loghain fic rec post one day#i have so many thoughts and feelings#hawke x loghain#grand enchanter fiona#kieran

A Fool’s Death and a Hard Choice: Epilogue
Rating: Mature
Chapters: 12/12
Warnings: Major Character Death, Graphic Depictions of Violence
Relationships: Loghain Mac Tir x Morrigan, background Hawke x Merrill, background Mahariel x Zevran
Summary: Loghain stayed behind in the Fade. Hawke breaks the news to someone who would miss him.
Morrigan nodded numbly, then accepted Adalla’s lead from Hawke’s outstretched hand.
“I’m… er. Well.” Hawke gestured with one hand. “He cared a lot about this horse. Took good care of her. Seemed to care a great deal about you, from what I could tell on our way to the Western Approach. I’m no good at this, but you have my sympathy. I lost a sister and mother, myself. Father and brother too before them.”
“I have no need of your sympathy,” Morrigan snapped. She formed a fist around Adalla’s lead. “Why must men always pollute the air with their useless placations? No, save your words.”
Hawke did not seem troubled in the least. “As you wish,” was his only reply.
And that’s a wrap. Thank you folks for following along with this story. 💚 it means more than you know.

The thing about Solas in Veilguard is that I got the impression that (along with not wanting to deal with any nuance in the rest of the story) they didn't want to face the fact that maybe in Dreadwolf, Solas would be almost morally unredeemable? I feel like maybe some writers really wanted that Solavellan good ending to happen? As if the majority of canon inquisitors were Lavellans that romanced Solas?
I didn't do a Lavellan or Solavellan playthrough but I've seen it on yt and what I imagined in Dreadwolf was a Solavellan romance resembling Hawke x Anders in that what Anders did was terrible but well intentioned and you can side with him anyway, but it doesn't redeem him. Maybe having to make Lavellan choose between stopping Solas or joining him, and then going against Rook?
From what we know of Project Joplin, Solas would become more powerful, presumably would commit more crimes etc, and they scrapped that and not only made him pretty harmless, but he helps you in the end and can easily be dissuaded. Not only that but they constantly show you how manipulated and misused he was by Mythal, pretty much saying look how innoccent he actually is (not saying I'm for or against him being innoccent or not). It just seems like a waste of a well-written villain with moral nuance!!! Instead we got Elgar'nan and Ghilan'nain who are just pure evil.
Loghain and Anders/Meredith/Orsino were much more complex than Coripheus and I was really hoping we would have that back with Solas as the antagonist.
#this isn't a Solas or Solavellan critical post just a Veilguard critical post#but not gonna tag solas or solavellan in case someone tries to kill me or something#hell even coripheus was cooler than what we got#veilguard critical#dragon age#datv#it speaks

Hey!! Happy Friday! How about a prompt for your Hawke/Loghain pairing from the "for the damaged" list? ❛ do you wish i was different? ❜ Have fun writing!
happy friday ocean!! ty ty for indulging my nice brainrot asdgkjl these two are. something, indeed😅
for @dadrunkwriting
~~~
A fire crackled in the estate for the first time in months. Most of the rooms stood dark and empty, dusty and untouched in Bodahn’s absence, but if Siobhan closed her eyes and didn’t think beyond the living room, things were almost as they were.
Except they weren’t.
Their discarded armor formed a heap near Rinn’s curled up form. There was little for the mabari to keep guard over these days, but he held his watch nonetheless.
Siobhan tucked her nose into Loghain’s loosened tunic. It was grimy from the day’s wear but warmed by the fire and it smelled of polish and smoke and him. She was not above suffering to preserve a memory of pleasure. There were always harder days ahead and she would need the comfort. That was not in question.
His arms encircled her, stroking up and down her shoulder blades almost absentmindedly. She could almost lose herself in the sensation. But the moment had never captivated her, not when there was something beyond it.
“Do you ever wish” —she hesitated, feeling childish and naive��� “do you ever wish I was…different? Not” —she gestured about the estate with one heavy hand— “this?”
“No.” Loghain’s answer was immediate, steady, even as she doubted it. His embrace tightened around her and one hand found her chin, guiding her to look up at him. Their lips were barely a whisper apart; she could see clearly the divot between his brows, the displeasure in his eyes.
“Have I given you reason to believe such?”
“No.” Siobhan held his gaze so he would not doubt. “I just…I—there is so much. It would be easier, perhaps, if I was not a mage, or not in Kirkwall, or not important.”
“Nothing easy has ever brought me pleasure,” Loghain countered. He nudged his nose against hers, not shying away from her stare.
Or pain. But neither of them raised that point.
It had been so long since she doubted herself. It had been so long since she had something worth acknowledging doubt. But—might she change how she was, if it would keep him here? If it would keep them together for a few minutes longer?
But she wouldn’t be his if she questioned. She wouldn’t be hers if she questioned. Siobhan sighed into his chest, fingers tangling in the ends of his unwashed hair.
So little time remained. She didn’t know what was coming, but she could feel it just beyond her reach, just as she knew that he would leave, and she would face it when he did.
“Do you wish I was different?”
She didn’t expect the question turned on it’s head, and her uncharacteristic silence in its wake showed it. The constant stroking of his fingers down her spine showed that he knew she would need a moment and she couldn’t decide if that set her at ease or on edge.
“What is there to change?” she finally murmured, tucking her head under his chin. At that vantage point, she heard his derisive snort.
“I nearly wiped out your homeland, ordered a bounty on the rightful king, almost brought the world to its knees with pride and obstinacy alone. What isn’t there to change?”
“We’ve all endured the horrors,” she sighed. “Would you change what you’ve done?”
“No.”
“Then neither would I.”
He pressed a kiss curved in a smile to her crown. “And neither would I, for you.”
“I hate it when you do that,” she muttered, but she smiled nonetheless, her conscience soothed in the moment. They were mirrors, cracked and fogged and scarred in their reflections, but their very nature turned back on the other.
“You love to hate it.”
She snorted derisively. “And what a fool I am for it.”

You know that I need to ask BG3 and Dragon Age 😉
Oh, lord. ALRIGHT. LET'S GET INTO IT, BABY! Thanks for the ask!
Dragon Age:
1. The first character I first fell in love with: Zevran or Morrigan. I don't remember which.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Cassandra <3
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t : I'm putting a target on my head, because I know that most all of my friends played them but. Cousland. Like, I get why people like playing them but lord they're boring.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates : Loghain.
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer : Hm. Maybe Alistair? I don't dislike him at all! I just wouldn't romance him.
6. The character I would totally smooch : It'd be boring to just say Morrigan or Zev, so I will say Sten or Orsino. I loved Orsino.
7. The character I’d want to be like : Bro, I don't think I wanna be like any of those nasty lil' freaks. They are disasters. Maybe Varric. Varric seems like he's doing alright.
8. The character I’d slap : If I see Meredith or Corypheus, it's on sight. They're catching hands.
9. A pairing that I love : Mahariel/Morrigan. Love the bog witch and her feral wolf boy, both baffled by the city and humans. Also Cassandra/Lavellan. Or. Varric/Hawke. (Also, Hawke/Fenris/Isabella).
10. A pairing that I despise: Bro, I dunno. UH. Anything involving Meredith or Corypheus I guess. Just on principle?
Baldur's Gate
1. The first character I first fell in love with: It was Astarion or Zevlor, way back in early access. Unless we are saying that it's Baldur's Gate on the whole, as a series. If that's the case, it's Jaheira. Been in love with her since I was 14.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Shadowheart. Day one in early access, she and I were not on good terms. Now, she is wife.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Gale. He's just alright.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates : Orin.
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer : Maybe Gortash? I still like him a lot. But it's tempered a little bit. BUT I STILL LIKE HIM SO MUCH, DON'T COME AFTER ME.
6. The character I would totally smooch : Listen. Raphael, Haarlep, Jaheira. Probably Shadowheart. Jaheira.
7. The character I’d want to be like : Is it weird to say Jaheira? Nine-fingers maybe?
8. The character I’d slap : Raphael. But affectionately. I would slap Wyll's dad less affectionately.
9. A pairing that I love : Raphael x Tav/Durge, Raphael x Haarlep. Minthara/one of my friend's OC's. Jaheira/CHARNAME or older Tav. Astarion/one of my friend's OC's lol.
10. A pairing that I despise: Minthara/Orin isn't a favorite of mine. I don't know that I despise any pairings...there are some I don't like but like. I don't DESPISE a lot.

started thinking about what worldstate i wanna create for my first run in veilguard because of course i have.
we can't import past saves and we won't be using the keep anymore, so I'm not sure how detailed we'll be able to get with it but I've got a few possibilities to play with:
the first and most likely is my mostly canon-compliant worldstate with these bbs:
lorelei cousland [rogue; double-wield] warden / queen of ferelden / li: king!alistair
daphne caron [rogue; double-wield] warden commander / ruler of vigil's keep / li: warden!bethany
ansley hawke [warrior; board & sword] champion of kirkwall / pirate / li: isabela
melisande trevelyan [rogue; archer] herald of andraste / inquisitor / li: cullen
rosalind hendry [mage; knight-enchanter] former chantry scholar / inquisition agent for leliana / li: blackwall
the second is my slightly less canon-compliant worldstate that i never brought into inquisition because i didn't want to have to choose between alistair and my favorite hawke in the fade lmao:
karina amell [mage; i do not remember her spec] warden-commander / li: warden!alistair
rhiannon hawke [force & elemental mage] champion of kirkwall / temp viscount of kirkwall / li: cullen or fenris*
*last summer i did replay da2 with an iteration of rhiannon that actually romanced fenris and i loved it and I've complicated shit for her, lmao. rhiannon x cullen were my goro x valerie of 2013-2014 and making her officially with someone else feels wrong bc i loved them together so much. but i just can't enjoy cullen anymore. so do i do i give rhiannon a boyfriend upgrade? do i make a whole 'nother hawke inspired by her? do i just let rhiannon x cullen and rhiannon x fenris exist in different AUs? i don't know!
and the third is kind of the opposite of the second one: a worldstate i made just for inquisition in the keep with some choices i had never made in the previous games. i don't even have the worldstate in the keep anymore so i don't remember everything but i think it was like this:
default f!mahariel [rogue; archer] no li / recruited loghain / made alistair marry anora
default m!hawke [mage] li: anders / sided with mages
keagan trevelyan [mage; knight-enchanter] herald of andraste / inquisitor / li: cullen (although i headcanoned a polycule with her, cullen, and josie)
one of my conundrums with all of these is, as i mentioned, i can't enjoy cullen anymore. he was obviously a big fave, i think his arc is fascinating especially in da2 and especially if you side with the templars and he has to contend with the shit he's done for meredith, and i enjoyed all the different shipping dynamics with all different kinds of ocs. but i can't separate him from his dipshit VA at this point. hearing his voice is just an instant NOPE for me now
i am 99% positive cullen will not be in veilguard for 2 reasons: 1) the writers said during inquisition that they were no longer trying to work in characters whose fates could be too varied depending on player choice and 2) that twitter shitstorm a few years seemed to guarantee ellis will never work with bioware again lmao
now i suppose there's a possibility that ellis could have recorded lines before that happened and somehow they would be able to be used despite all the changes that happened, but I'm trying to be an optimist here
nevertheless, all of the inquisitors i played were with him, and it sounds like we'll be able to engage with our inquisitors in some capacity in veilguard so do i even want to have a passing mention of cullen? idk. i mean, my disdain for his VA isn't so bad that this would ruin the game for me or anything, but i also feel like this is an opportunity to enjoy another character
between keagan and melisande, melisande was definitely my more developed OC, but i just loved playing as a knight-enchanter gameplay-wise so keagan is actually the only one of the two who did trespasser and jaws of hakkon. i never did the descent--the only DLC in all the games that i haven't played. I've been debating firing up my inquisitor!valerie game again to play that with her but i know the descent recommends a pretty high level and i can't remember how far i got in the story with her (I think i just reached skyhold that last time i played)
so anyway, i've got some decisions to make!
as for what i'm leaning towards playing in veilguard: at this point in time, i'm pretty sure my first rook will be a mage of some kind and lucanis sounds like he was made specifically for me lmao so odds are looking good that'll be my first ship
#t: wench.txt#s: dragon age#long post#lmao this might be shocking to anyone who's only known me in cyberpunk hell#but yes i am actually capable of creating a fuckton of characters for a universe lmao#valerie just has a fuckin' grip on me tho#it's her world and everyone else is secondary

Fanfic Writer Questions
Thanks for the tag @plisuu 💚 I’ll go ahead and loop in @sulky-valkyrie @darethshirl @inquisimer @demarogue and @exalted-dawn if they like but no pressure.
1. How many works do you have on AO3? 102
2. What's your total AO3 word count? 520k
3. What fandoms do you write for? Most recently Dragon Age, but I’ve written for Fallout, Skyrim, Sherlock, and Twilight in the past.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
The Needle and the Shield (Alistair/Zevran tattoo smut)
don’t feed me (I will come back) (Male Lavellan/Dorian/Solas threesome smut)
pick a star from the sky (Solas Holds a Baby)
Basvaraad (Solas saves a saarebas)
Demands of the Arishok (Arishok/Female Hawke)
5. Do you respond to comments? Yes! Eventually. I keep them in my inbox for a while and just look at em.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? It’s hard to chooooose but I think the gift I wrote for @dreadfutures focusing on two Mahariels and the loss of Tamlen to the Blight is a pretty angsty one.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? This Solas x Cassandra piece is the fluffiest and happiest thing I have in my catalogue I think, mainly because I ended it before the breakup lol.
8. Do you get hate on fics? I used to in older fandoms.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? I don’t think so?
12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Nope

14. What's your all time favorite ship? I’m such a sucker for solavellan but all time? Nine x Rose
