I love the way lucanis pronounces 'ferelden' just slightly awkwardly/uncertainly in his first banters with harding that bring it up -- like maybe he hasn't had cause to say it out loud much in common and is having that moment of second language use stumble where you go 'shit it'd be. something like that, right? that sounds about right?? 😬'. it feels like such a neat and well-observed little detail to slip in there I love the voice acting in this game

#as someone who has had that moment of 'how to slip norwegian place names into english without sounding ridiculous'... too real #tonality and standards of pronouciation does NOT always carry over as cleanly or naturally as you'd like lol #also 'no. everyone loves turnips' serious contender for the funniest thing he's ever said in a long and storied career #of saying things in indefinably funny ways. this is just a fact of the universe as far as he's concerned. I love him #truly this voice actor is the king of turning straightforward lines into peak comedy through sheer power of Delivery #harding braced for a microaggression against british people and instead being met with that <3 #(turnips are the one part of the food of her country to which lucanis has no objections)#dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #I suppose. spoilers: non-derogatory use of fereldan turnip occurs in this game #lucanis dellamorte #lace harding #them becoming bros as the banter goes on from a uh. rocky start is soooo good. wonderfully paced. also hilarious #'aw sorry you're actually kind of nice for a moment I forgot you're also a monster I promise I'll keep one eye open #and kill you unhesitatingly if necessary :( sry again for sleeping on the job'#'(genuinely moved) thank you I really appreciate that'
