#Mari Trevelyan

[isobel-thorm]

Can't find the original post, so new one, gross, but anyway.

Now that I'm back in DA Hell and thinking about my gang, I've decided that now that Mari is with Fairbanks and is the wife in question in Absolution, I've decided that when she and Dirk do their usual 'we haven't argued in ages, it is our Sibling Right to find something to roast each other about' Full on at some unserious moment:

"Well YOU married an Orlesian" "Says the guy who married a Tevinter??? Pot, kettle????" "Yours is worse." "HOW? Don't walk away, get back here-"

Trevelyan with Dog

🌈 A kiss to make peace 🌈

The one and only Quinn by @melisusthewee, in the Whale AU he entered in style, in time for some 1911 ballgown galore. Aisling calls him "Mr Arch-Nemesis" (and is half an hour away in the picture to punch in the nose an idiot who was speaking badly of him for the wrong reasons), Quinn also loves her to bits, as you can clearly see he's really eager to express her all her affection. Horatio live reaction under the cut.

Teehee

Tell us about your OCs pleaaaaassseee. The last time I saw Dragon Age was when my dad played it. That was Origins....

Please?

I have been waiting for this question all my life. Under the cut because it's going to get long.

Here's the full giant family tree.

Top row we do not care about. Everyone's shitty father (the old Bann Trevelyan) who married a pretty foreign wife for the money and then cheats on her with his kitchen staff. I don't care about them except that he sucks.

Next row: Heward and Decima The young Bann Trevelyan (has taken over the title since his father died) and his Tevinter wife. Thedas's Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma. A bann's son met a Magister's daughter at a party, she ran away from her arranged marriage with him, the rest is history.

Emmeline and Leolin The next sibling down got sick of her shitty father and got married young to escape him. Luckily, Leolin is a good guy. A Ferelden arl's son from the back of the Fallow Mire. He gave her a beautiful, people-less swamp and two sons and she didn't talk to her family again for a decade.

Mari and Bryn People that actually matter. The Inquisitor and the Herald, respectively. A Templar and a mage, respectively. Six months apart, closest out of any of the siblings. As teenagers, she followed him to the Circle in the only way she could: joining the Order. With a head full of propaganda, really thinking she was going to be protecting mages and serving good. Mari was reassigned from Ostwick to Kirkwall, they didn't like having two siblings on opposite "sides" in one Circle, and she served at the Gallows for a while. Lost her place in the Order for getting pregnant with Clodagh after an affair with Raleigh Samson, Meredith really didn't like that. She never, not in what I consider canon, had the Anchor, but she did help Cullen command the Inquisition forces with Cullen. Bryn was Tranquil for a while. He got lost in the Fade and technically failed his Harrowing on time alone, and of course they overreacted. Tranquil until the Conclave, that is. The Anchor ripped his connection to the Fade back open. He was deeply autistic and deeply traumatised by All That, but still the Herald of Andraste and the figurehead. Mari romanced Cullen and Bryn romanced Dorian.

Next row: The only one of that generation of cousins who really matters is Clodagh. Mari's (and Samson's) daughter who ran away to Minrathous to both study and further her magic abilities, but also to get out of her mother's shadow and make something of herself for herself. She took the last name Mercar as an alias because Trevelyan carried too much weight, and she ended up in Dock Town with the Shadow Dragons.

And that's the short version.

Revelations about the fact that Marissa's white hair and green eyes are in fact not because she is Andraste's chosen are really fun. Especially for Marissa, who's already really going through it for a number of reasons.

🌈✨CRINGETOBER 2024✨🌈 DAY 26: Y/N / MARY SUE

Sometimes you start a game and you romance one character on your first playthrough (Josephine). Then you play again with mods and discover your 'canon' romance (Cassandra). Then you make other characters and they're ALSO in love with your main (Irene Trevelyan + Zora "Lavellan"). So you end your canon worldstate having flirted with every single woman and having a total of 4 romances. And you have pink eyes and pronouns. It happens!

Slightly based on that one Sonamy redraw meme!

[kirkwallguy]

i REALLY live for the sense that there's some kind of rivalry between orlesian and free marcher nobles.

ship traits and picrew!

tagged by @a-treides and guys i know i always say these are long and under the cut for that reason but i really couldn't shut the fuck up on this one so. you have been warned <3 i talked about 11 ocs and a couple of them have multiple partners

tav khoury & raphael (baldur's gate 3); so this is kind of a mix of "canon" end where she kills him and "bad end" where they actually get "together" (read: are insane).

height difference (i am So normal about how much taller his cambion form is than her (lie)) / mutual pining / first kiss / wedding / in-jokes / lgbtq+ (diveristy win! the worst two people in the world are bisexual) / family disapproves (i feel like their whole thing gives mephistopheles heartburn and that's before we get into the crown of karsus bit) / would die for each other / would kill for each other (and have <3) / fake relationship / arranged wedding / cuddlers / pda friendly (exhibitionist weirdos <3) / and they were roommates / holding hands / secret relationship / opposing worldviews / getting a pet / have kids / want kids / grow old together / relationship failures / rests head on shoulder / share a bed (they don't talk about it) / relationship doubts / they have a song (they probably each write one bc they're bards and refuse to acknowledge the other's as anything other than copying, regardless of who wrote it first. raphael's is better but tav performs hers better, probably) / first date / sharing a blanket / mutual interests (do not let me get started on this one i'll explode.) / study buddies / bathing together / crash into hello / accidental nudity / laundry / same hobbies / cooking for each other / big fancy gala (the things these two have gotten up to in dark corners at fancy galas in my wips. good lird) / forehead touches / hair stroking / sitting on each other’s laps / sexual tension / can’t be together (if gale being cured of the orb didn't necessitate the crown tav would have been Crazy even in her canon end. her morals aren't That good. but unforch. she befriended gale first.) / battle couple / Friends to Lovers / Enemies to Lovers (but only Barely. he kidnaps her when they first meet, she threatens to kill him, but both of them leave that initial conversation feeling largely positive about each other because they're weird.) / Lovers to Enemies / keeping secrets (her, not him. he's weirdly honest and that drives miss "never failed a deception check" insane) / love after loss (but worse!) / exes / declaration of love (only in bad end but my God does tav fucking go for it there) / flirting / love triangle (only barely. it's entirely dependent on One thing and there's not like an Ongoing Competition. tav's poly she just can't have both because it requires her to reject or lean into Bonkers worldviews) / destructive romance (it ain't called bad end because tav has a positive impact, i'll say that much) / envy / “I Don’t Want to Ruin Our Friendship” / shared values (truly insane the degree to which this happened by accident. by the way) / slow burn / does not end well / happily ever after / love letters (they're both bards. they get Poetic with it)

tav khoury & astarion (baldur's gate 3); just like above, a mix of "canon" end where they're freaks having their happily-ever-after and "bad end" where he ascends and uhh she doesn't like that to put it mildly. but not on moral reasons she dgaf about the seven thousand souls.

For the DA Veilguard Asks: 1, 6, 8, and 12?

What was the first Dragon Age game you played? Origins. My college roommate introduced me to the series after I mentioned hearing about it and then she helped me through a playthrough of Origins and 2 in a week.

6. Do you have your Rooks planned out to any degree? If so, share some of the details.

I literally just started today. Cooking up three of them, only one has like. At least temporarily definite (how's that for an oxymoron?) details:

Mournwatch / Veil Jumper / Shadow Dragon 1 Either: A) Another childhood friend of Dirk and Fairbanks (read: another member of their little club of nobles who ran away from the Noble life), or B ) one of Dorian and Dirk's contacts in Tevinter. Has a reputation as a Smuggler, both for goods and for refugees out of Tevinter. Names: Aerin, Bastien, Killian, Rafe, Cade??? Feeling Charlie Hunnam as an fc. Shadow Dragon …2! Dirk and Dorian's adopted kid. The couple were perfectly happy just taking in the at-the-time-in-trouble-preteen and considering the kid a younger sibling, but the kid was like "Famiby :), I love my gay dads" and none of them looked back. A bit of an acrobatic gremlin who takes after Auntie Mari. Lord of Fortune "Gentleman Pirate``

8) What faction are you excited to learn most about? Either Veil Jumper or Mournwatch, because , it's one of the new ones we know nothing about/haven't heard of before. They both sound intriguing, but to my unknowledgeable ass also sound the same. Time to order the Tevinter Nights book, methinks.

12) What's something you hope we DON'T see in this next game? Uhhh keeping it as spoiler-free as possible, but basically exactly what a bunch of people including myself are expecting after that narrative/gameplay trailer. I don't like The Implications.

"Bangladesh: Rohingya" questions and also a "Myanmar"

On Thursday the 16th of May there were two Bangladesh: Rohingya questions in the House of Lords that were published by the Bishop of St Albans, Convenor of the Lords Spiritual, Alan Smith. They were both responded by the same Minister who is Traiq Ahmed. So here are the questions and the response and so far no one has responded to state if it is suitable for Yes or No in the response so perhaps…
