Manor of Blood and Roses 🥀

Chapter Two

Precious chapter here

The serene stillness of the moon lit night was interpreted by the frantic pounding of footsteps on the damp grass as a lone limping figure ran as best they could.

The ragged gasping of air coming from the frantic individual caused their breath to fog in the night's cold air, the chill hitting their frail body, the simple sleeping gown doing nothing to protect them from the night's elements

Their ears were filled the sound of their own heart pounding harshly against the ribs in their chest as adrenaline ran through their veins.

RUN.

Their mind screamed at them and they forced their already tired and battered body to pick up the pace, they ignored the sharp ache on their right ankle everytime they put pressure on it.

The blood from the deep cuts on their arms and stomach had yet to stop and they were beginning to feel light headed.

They were sure the only reason they hadn't blacked out yet was because of the adrenaline flowing through their body was what was keeping them moving.

That and the fear of dying so miserably.

They needed to stop and try to heal the wounds properly or it would get worse, but that was the least of their concerns now.

How could they have been so stupid ?

Why had they let their guard down ?

If only they hadn't listened to the group.

They were usually so overly cautious, so why now was it that this single moment of unpreparedness was going to be the death of them.

If they had had their staff they might have managed to fight back instead of their current situation that left them running away, wounded , exposed and vulnerable.

They needed somewhere to-

HIDE

A chill ran down their spine as they felt piercing eyes on their form.

" The gods no. " They thought weakly a pained whimper leaving their lips.

Their thoughts screamed rabidly at them once again, instincts making them falter a bit in their pace as their eyes frantically searched around for anywhere they could take cover and try to catch their breath to think of something anything to escape the monster chasing them.

But all that was in their now hazy line of vision was lined up marble pillars attached to nothing , the tall thick walls of white lilies that stretched into the sky blocking their escape to the outside ( not like they could survive out there in the demon king's plague in their current state) and rose bushes with flowers that had such a deep red colour.

There was only open spaces with no where to hide

The thick scent of freshly bloomed roses seemed to fill their noses beginning to disorient them.

Their pace was beginning to get slower, either because of the adrenaline was wearing out or they had lost to much blood.

It was probably for both reasons.

When they could run no longer they simply stood in place.

The pain shot through their body, ripping a pained moan from their lips as they crumpled to the prickly grass ground under the moon light.

They couldn't run any more, there was no where to hide.

And even if there was a place to hide they were sure they had left behind a trail of blood that would lead to their inevitable capture.

Was this how they died ?

So worthlessly ?

After all the struggle and pain they had endured to get this far ?

The insults, the discrimination, the abuse and violence that they had put up with all their life simply because they had thought if they endured they would be rewarded in life for their resilience and patience, was that all for nothing.

He was going to die a meaningless death after leaving a meaningless life like an animal.

All this suffering simply because he was human.

It wasn't fair.

He didn't want to die.

Not like this.

Not when he was so close to achieving what he had worked.

He was going to die and he was sure his team mates wouldn't be bothered.

They were already wining and dining inside the hall as he laid there bleeding out.

Then it hit him.

He would have still died anyways.

He might have been the party's designated healer, but he was sure if the need came they wouldn't mind using him as a meat shield.

Ah.

Why was that revelation coming now when death was so near.

What a fool he had been.

Wasting his life to serve people who only saw his as lesser.

A shadow stood over his bleeding body blocking the bright moon light over his body.

The monster had finally caught him.

It was inevitable.

After all he was heavily wounded and had been running around in a place with no cover.

He had simply been wasting his strength trying to prevent what was eventually going to happen and the monster had simply enjoyed playing with it's broken toy.

Hazy e/c eyes weakly moved to look at up at the creature staring down at him and his gaze was locked with piercing blood red eyes.

A vast difference from the soft baby blue colour they used to be.

At least the human knew his paranoia had been called for.

Alistair Dove was a monster.

Gone was the caring elven dominant omega with silverish white hair and soft eyes that added to his gentle and demure appearance.

He had transformed into an entirely different.... Thing.

M/N hadn't been able to catch a glimpse of his new appearance before and even now all he could make out with his rapidly dwindling vision was strands of light blue hair and those piercing blood red eyes that stared mockingly into his dying being.

All he knew now was that the Lord was a monster.

A devil.

And probably someone from the demon king's high court.

He was probably a high level member with incredible power and intelligence since he had managed to fool hero's blessed gods without anyone being suspicious of him.

Hah.

Him as an ordinary beta human never even stood a chance.

The monster was talking to him, probably mocking him, but the h/c man couldn't hear him through his ringing ears.

His eyes were so heavy and he was in so much pain.

What was the point in holding on anymore ?

He just wanted rest.

After all his role as a dispensable member had been achieved.

So all he wanted now was rest.

At least the gods could give him that.

And like that the human shut his eyes.

As his body began to go lax his nose was suddenly filled with a sickeningly sweet creamy scent.

He wondered what that was.

Didn't think I would do a second part but here. Hope you enjoy

Alistair face claim.

12. candles, for amos/alistair (or a pairing of your choosing, if you'd prefer!) 💚

micro prompts

-

"Amos."

No response.

"Aaaaaaayyy-moessssss."

Still no response.

"Moody!"

"I told you to stop calling me that."

"Ha!" Alistair tightened his arms around Amos's waist and pressed his mouth into the other man's shoulder so the next words were muffled against his skin. "Knew you weren't asleep."

"It's hard to sleep when you make so much noise."

"You're mean, you know that?"

Amos grumbled something unintelligible and pressed himself back into the warmth of Alistair's chest.

The Frostbacks were near inhospitable. Since the group had started their long trek to the village of Haven, the snow and cold wind had been relentless. Neither them nor their travelling companions spent time outside their tents after camp was made for the night, and spending hour after hour in such cramped quarters with another person was starting to drive Amos mad. He liked Alistair. That wasn't the question. The question was how he was supposed to get enough sleep when Alistair liked talking so much.

But he was warm and smelled good, and he did like talking to Amos despite Amos's aforementioned moodiness and standoffish demeanour, so he supposed there were worse people to be stuck in a tent with.

"Did you need something?" Amos asked finally. For all his faults, Alistair wouldn't wake Amos up from what he thought was a deep sleep unless it was important.

"Yes." Alistair pushed himself up on his bedroll, the sheets rustling as he did. "I need... uh... I forgot where the door to our tent is."

Amos turned to face him. "What?"

"It's so dark out. And... dark in."

"Alistair."

"Open your eyes!"

Amos did. He was surprised to find that there was little difference - in fact, if he was unable to feel his eyes opening and closing, he would've thought nothing was changing at all.

"I need you to light a candle for me," Alistair said, "so I can get up to pee."

Amos pushed himself up from the ground and rubbed his eyes. "Can you find a candle?"

"Of course!"

Sure enough, Alistair started feeling around the floor of the tent. He grazed Amos's foot at least three times.

"Do you need to pee, too?" Alistair asked while he searched. "We could go together."

"No, I don't."

"Okay, but... you could still come with me."

Amos smiled and was glad Alistair couldn't see it. "Don't tell me you're scared."

"I'm not scared. I can't sense any Darkspawn nearby - though would we even be able to sense them if they were frozen solid? Do you think the cold can kill Darkspawn? Aha, there's the candle!"

There was a moment of silence before Amos felt Alistair pushing it against Amos's knuckles. Amos took it with his other hand and lit the end of the candle with a small, flickering flame.

"Thanks." As the fire started to grow, so did the range of its light, and after a moment, Alistair's face emerged from the darkness. He looked so handsome and hopeful as he asked, "Are you sure you don't want to come pee with me?"

Was he sure? Amos didn't know. It was safer in numbers - plus, the tent would feel a lot colder without Alistair in it...

"Fine," he said. "I'll come."

"Hooray!" Alistair grinned and then stopped grinning just as fast. "Oh, do you know what the best part of having this candle is? Now, I can do this."

He leaned through the open space towards Amos and pressed his lips to the other man's. Long and slow and deep - that was how Alistair liked to kiss. Like a vow. Like he loved Amos more than Amos thought possible. When Amos pulled away, he blew the candle out before Alistair could open his eyes and see the flush on his face.

"Hey! What happened?"

"The flame went out," Amos lied. "I'll relight the candle in a second."

"Okay." It sounded like Alistair was frowning. "But don't wait too long, okay? I really do have to pee."

DRAGON AGE: ORIGINS ➤ SHIP GIFS: Nessistair

NESS COUSLAND x ALISTAIR THEIRIN

[inquisimer]

HEY BB if you had to pick 5 fics you’ve written to make a “crash course” and sum up your writing personality, which would they be? I must know.

thank you for the uno reverse, MWAH

it's only fair that I have to turn this lens on myself but DANG was it hard to be like "what is my writing personality?" I think it really boiled down to: platonic relationships, grey wardens, a just a hint of Lore™️

Gen'adahl - Female Lavellan/Cullen Rutherford, Rated G, 1485 words

this was one of the first ever DA fics I wrote; I remember scrawling it out in a notebook at my last job where I wasn't allowed to keep my phone at my desk. And I was so proud when I finished it! For me, it represents the proof that I can finish pieces, no matter how long it takes

to be seen feeling - Male Mahariel/Morrigan, Rated T, 5039 words, a gift for @dreadfutures as part of the 2023 DAFF DIscord's OC Swap

writing this fic was not only an absolute joy, it was a pinnacle for me: if I could write a fic that captured the depths of Blue's OCs, I could probably do anything. And I did! And I can! It was exactly what I needed at the time and also a reminder that however blase my own knowledge or fandom experience feels to me, it will slot into what even the most knowledgeable fandom personalities know in surprising ways.

Shards of Glass - Female Brosca & Rica Brosca, Rated G, 3304 words

One of my first toe dips into the gray area of lore! It was so fun to imagine an alternative for Brosca's origins, to give her a deeper connection to the Stone, to play in the absolute barren wasteland wide open sandbox of Bioware's dwarven lore. Beyond that, this piece highlights my Sibling Bias™️ and how much i love exploring the DAO origins before the Blight, in general.

nothing hits the ground without an echo - Alistair & Bethany Hawke, Rated G, 1045 words

My first Dragon Age canon/canon fic! Absolutely wild to think that before I got into Dragon Age I was vehemently anti-oc in fanfic 😂 I'm so glad I outgrew that and can love and celebrate all of our OCs. At the same time, it was a joy to return to my canon x canon roots and play up the Grey Warden lore and happenings at Vigil's Keep that seemed to die in game after Awakening ;-;

I carried my own ashes to the mountain - Zevran Arainai & Female Brosca, Rated G, 1202 words

Nothing particularly poetic to say about this one, to be perfectly honest, I just like the Vibes™️. I think the humor and sarcasm suits my writing personality, and the lighthearted overtones that are haunted by unnamed pining and angst are Very Me :3 Also Nika not recognizing her face and yet reluctant to let go of it until someone gives her permission is something deeply personal to me, that I didn't even realize until after I'd written this. I look back on it and go, yep, yeah, I see you now, past mer😅

Behold my stuff and things

Rhaella made me do it.

I write and I fixate on things. That's it that's the blog.

This started off as an Arcana blog, to share my fanfiction and scroll through fanart of my favourite fictional people, but has since grown into a place for me to collect stuff I like. An interweb scrapbook, if you will. A little castle in a sandbox where I vibe with my favourite things. And you can sit with me if you like :) but I'm old, tired and socially inept. She/her, if it matters.

I ask minors to please be cautious, this is not a SFW blog. Like, at all. If in doubt please don't follow me. Stay safe out there.

I exist on AO3 as LunaStarhawk and on reddit as u/lunastarhawk.

Tags, links and whatnot...

Writings:

(please assume all my writing is Explicitly NSFW unless stated otherwise)

The Arcana Fanfic - is what it says on the tin. Encompasses all my works, including reader insert and Julian x MC.

Tides of Memories - specific to my ongoing longlonglongfic.

Tides Moodboard - references, inspo and general vibes relating to ToM.

Julian x Altheia - all things specific to Julian and my oc.

I'm screaming but I'm having fun <- that's a writing tag. It do be like that sometimes.

OC Tags

The Arcana - Altheia Featherstone

I have a separate blog for my Julian-romancing Arcana OC, Altheia, which is a themed blog based on stuff she likes, outside of the Arcana. She, er. She likes boats. And the sea. But I post Arcana-related bits here under her tags Altheia Featherstone, Altheia aesthetic and Altheia moodboard.

Her own blog in her own right is at @altheia-featherstone (Rhaella made me do it)

Dragon Age: Inquisition - Favian Trevelyan

I don't write DA fics (yet?) but I am obsessed with do have a handsome Dorian-romancing Inquisitor, Favian. I do nothing but stick screenshots of him and my Inquisition playthrough to my scrapbook here on tumblr dot com. Peak self-indulgence. His tags are Inquisitor Favian, and Dragon Age Shenanigans.

A separate blog exists for him but I haven't decided yet how I'll use it @inquisitor-favian (Rhaella made me do it)

Rhaella - belongs to @rhaella-rhavelli but I love her and will squirrel her away into my pocket any chance I get.

Fixations

Other fandom things I reblog a lot for my scrapbook, putting this here mainly as an index for myself:

FF7 - Sephiroth and Vincent Valentine mostly.

Loki - series, MCU, comic and Lady Loki. I ship Lokius.

The Arcana - Julian Devorak, Julian x Altheia. I avoid anything Asrian like the Red Plague.

Dragon Age - Dorian Pavus, Emmrich Volkarin, Lucanis Dellamorte, Alistair, da:o, da:i, da:v

Music - Julian and Altheia's greatest hits, music for my blorbos is soothing my soul, Friday night jams, tune Tuesday.

#beloved :)

AO3 Links (LunaStarhawk)

Julian x Altheia (Female OC)

Tides of Memories - current WiP. A continuation of Julian's route's upright ending and my prologue story, with my OC, Altheia.

Between the Deep Blue Sea and the Devil - Self-indulgent rewrites of a selection of scenes from Julian's route, specific to him and Altheia, as referenced in ToM. Ongoing as and when the mood takes me.

Past the Midnight Sun - Self-indulgent smut and fluff between Julian and Altheia. I love them, you see. Ongoing as and when the mood takes me.

Gender Neutral Reader Insert

The Memories We Lost - A sort of prologue to the Arcana, this is my take on Julian and MC's time during the Red Plague. Complete.

'He Was Mine' - Reimagined Reminiscences - My first fic series, a collection of mostly smutty rewrites of some of Julian's route scenes. Complete.

Domestic Daydreams - Julian and spouse do Mundane Things. Very unlikely I will add to this.

Female Reader Insert

Post-Route Shenanigans - smut with Julian and his girlfriend.

Violet - that one time I wrote Asra smut.

Male Reader Insert

Post-Route Henanigans - like shenanigans but with a He. I think I'm funny. Smut with Julian and his boyfriend.

I think that's everything, enjoy your stay :)

The finished thing vs the concept doodles...

I love making refsheets so much. It's just very time consuminngggg... EEE.

[alistairs-fables]

Welcome to my blog~

My name is Alistair. (Any pronouns are fine but prefers he/him.)

My muse here may fluctuate as this blog is driven by passion and interest. This is a blog dedicated to writing my various OCs with readers that are interested in them, whether it's romantically, platonically or otherwise. Here's the long list of OCs to choose from.

What I WILL Write: Genres: - Fluff - Angst / Drama - Smut / Erotica - Hurt / Comfort

Character Specific Topics: - Character x Reader - Character & Reader (it's like an "x reader" but without romance or sex) - Male, female, trans, gender-neutral, etc reader (just specify when requesting or I will default to gender-neutral) - Monster AUs (vampires, sirens, werewolves, golems, etc) - Yandere (will have a CW for those that wish to avoid that content)

Writing Topics: - LGBTQIA+ - Polyamory - Pregnancy - Weddings/Proposals - SFW and NSFW - Heavy/Deep topics including but not limited to dark thoughts, s*lf-h*rm, s**cide/s**cidal thoughts, trauma, recovery, grief/loss, death, etc. (All will have a CW for those that wish to avoid that content)

What I WON'T Write (SFW): Honestly the top three should go without saying. - P*dophilia - B*stiality - Inc*st - Cheating - Miscarriages

DNI If: Racist, transphobic, homophobic, a minor, MAP/NOMAP, fetishizer

Things to Keep In Mind: - I am allowed to deny any request. I am not obliged to answer or write if it's something that just doesn't sit right with me, even if the request follows all the rules.

Now that all of that's out of the way, if any of this strikes your fancy you're free to take a seat and stick around for as long as you'd like! It's a pleasure to have you here.

-Yours truly, Alistair. (NSFW/NSFT under the cut!)

What I WILL Write (Smut Bonus!): - Edgeplay, however there will be no serious, permanent or heavy inflictions. (Burns, deep cuts/stab wounds, etc) - Dom/Sub scenarios and dynamics - Most kinks that might involve monsters or something of the sort. (Oviposition, knotting, tentacles, A/B/O, etc. You name it, I might be able to do it.) - Most kinks in general

What I WON'T Write (NSFW): - Everything in the SFW listing. - Bathroom kinks/kinks that involve bodily fluid outside of cum (piss, scat, vomit, spitting, heavy blood, etc) - Fat fetish (fat appreciation is okay) - Minor characters/readers. Obviously. Anything that needs to be changed or added will be done post-haste.

[ell-vellan]

about me

Hi! Call me Ell or Autumn (she/her). I'm a writer by hobby and profession. This blog is mostly Dragon Age and Baldur's Gate 3, but also a little bit of The Witcher Netflix, Shadow & Bone, Mass Effect, writing, and just generally media I enjoy. Probably going to include more Sleep Token in the future. Sometimes science. Rarely, my own meta and fanfic writing.

Ao3

My DA Meta Posts

My Writing

My OCs

I'm an adult and I write adult things, so follow at your own discretion. I don't knowingly follow back or privately chat with minors - nothing personal!

I try to curate a positive space here as much as possible for my mental health. I don't tend to post anti stuff, and I utilize the block function pretty readily.

I'm inconsistent at best with tagging, though I do make an effort to tag for common triggers. The only one you might see regularly is a cw for blood (in fanart, not real blood). If you need something tagged, you are free to ask, but I can't guarantee I'll never forget to include it.

I'm always happy to chat about any of our shared interests, be tagged in things, or get asks about my writing, characters, or media. But I'm not here to argue, and I don't engage with negativity.

My Canon Dragon Age Worldstates for fic purposes:

(List not exhaustive - major highlights only.)

"Happily Ever After":

DAO: female warrior Cousland x King Alistair, ruled together, dark ritual with Morrigan, killed Loghain

DA2: male warrior Hawke x Anders, templar Carver, sided with mages

DAI: undecided!

"Elfy":

DAO: Male rogue Mahariel x Zevran, King Alistair rules alone, killed Loghain, dark ritual with Morrigan.

DA2: Male mage Hawke x Fenris, spared Anders, circle mage Bethany survived, sided with mages

DAI: female mage Lavellan x Iron Bull (though my hc is Solas is an almost-maybe ex), allied with mages and Grey Wardens, Divine Leliana (softened)

Favorite DA Characters: (aka the ones you'll see most of my rbs about)

Zevran, Alistair, Fenris, The Iron Bull, Krem, Morrigan

Favorite pairings:

Zevran/Warden, Cousland/Alistair, Hawke/Anders/Fenris, Hawke/Fenris, Hawke/Anders, Bull/Dorian, Bull/Inquisitor

Not an exhaustive list by any means.

Tags Page Updates

Hi everyone!

It’s been a long time since we updated the tags page, but it received an overhaul today. You may notice that your fave ships have moved in the list.

UPDATES

☆ updated the layout to be more mobile friendly (finally!) ☆ aligned our tags to AO3 standards for DA (mostly) - more info after the read more ☆ to align with AO3, Iron Bull was updated to The Iron Bull ☆ added new tags for the year (including a dapolyex2022 tag) ☆ updated da4 tag to dragon age: dreadwolf

KNOWN ISSUES

A handful of our relationship tags are broken. There seems to be no rhyme nor reason, and only 1-2 posts are impacted with a total of 4-5 tags. We experimented in every way we could think of: removing “/”, removing spaces, removing “!”, removing all special characters, replacing spaces with “+”. We even added NEW, unrelated tags to these posts and they also wouldn’t work. We have no idea what the issue is.

We’ve reached out to support to see if there’s anything they can do on their end.

AO3 ALIGNMENT

After some thought, we decided to align our ship tagging practices with AO3′s to hopefully keep things more consistent across the exchange and the blog. This means that we’ll be using on tumblr the tags most likely to become canonical on AO3 with a few variations. What is the “official” order?

Official AO3 Tagging for DA (we think)

characters are alphabetized in the ship by last name (if present); otherwise, they use the first name

titles and articles are ignored (for example, The Iron Bull is alphabetized with “I”).

Mac Tir is a compound name (alphabetized with M); Orlesian “de” names are not compound (de Chalons with “C”); “of X” (i.e. “of Serault”) is alphabetized with X.

Gender counts as a first name if two characters with the same last name are present (i.e. Female Lavellan comes before Male Lavellan).

Groups are also in alphabetical order, e.g., Agent(s) of Fen'harel are alphabetized with “A” and Inquisition Scout(s) are alphabetized with “I”

“Original Character(s)” and “Tentacles” are always placed at the end of ships.

Our Variations

We (for obvious reasons) are dropping the “(Dragon Age)” designations on our tags on tumblr.

Alistair Theirin is on AO3 as “Alistair (Dragon Age)”; however, since there are a lot of “Alistair”s across fandoms, we’ve kept his last name on the tumblr tags. He is still alphabetized in our ships using “A” instead of “T”.

We kept genders abbreviated (i.e. “f!Hawke” instead of “Female Hawke”)

The official AO3 tags for OCs are “Original Female Character(s)” and “Original Male Characters(s)”, but we kept our f!oc and m!oc designations for simplicity.

In the tags list, I’ve ignored gender for the main list, meaning that ships with Adaar and Aeducan are listed before ships with Alistair. I did take gender into account for deciding how to alphabetize things like f!Adaar versus m!Adaar.

Choices...

Lyra is given the tough decision of which brother in law has to stay in the Fade with a chance of dying while the other has a 100% survival chance.

Note: I'd like to say that after DAO Alistair marries your character (if he's not king) the same thing applies to Vel I'd like to say he married Fenris and Anders. Soras is my male elf warden I romanced Alistair with it thanks to a bisexual Alistair mod

Parings: Vel x Fenris x Anders (mentioned specifically Vel x Fenris), Alistair x Soras (mentioned)

Lyra watched Dorian, Cole and Blackwall go ahead, leaving the fade and leaving her, Alistair and Vel behind. The three almost made it when they got stopped by the massive spider demon thing that had tried to get them all.

"Shit-" Vel muttered under his breath.

"We need to get through!" Lyra stressed, looking behind her at Alistair and Vel.

"Go!" Vel stepped forward, "I'll cover you." Alistair pulled Vel back then stepped forward.

"No. You were right Vel. A warden caused this mess so a warden must-"

"Those Warden's are going to need you to lead them!" Vel argued back.

"I was never a fan of leading. When Soras comes back, he can lead them-"

"And what exactly do you expect me to tell my brother?" Lyra questioned. Before looking at Vel "That goes for you too. You really expect my first interaction ever with Fenris to be me telling him you're in the blighted fade?!" She pushed past both of them "I'll stay."

"You're the inquisitor. You're the only who can close the rifts." Vel pulled her back.

"Well as much as we could just stay here and argue all day we really need to make up our minds before that thing makes its way out there." Alistair said.

Lyra frowned as she felt herself start to tear up. Why. Why couldn't they all make it. There was no guarantee that who ever stayed would make it out alive. She didn't want to be tasked with this decision.

Both males seemed to sense this. Vel opened his mouth to say something but Alistair beat him to it, resting a hand in Lyra's shoulder.

"You two go."

"But-"

"I'll be fine. When you see Soras tell him I'll be back before he knows it." Alistair grinned but it quickly faded when he saw Lyra starting to cry. He pulled her in for a quick hug then wiped her tears "I'll be alright. You and Vel get out of here alright?"

Lyra frowned, giving Alistair one last hug before Vel grabbed her wrist "Let's go!" The two ran out of the Fade while Alistair was the distraction.

My Dragon Age Ocs and their lovers’ as songs:

(Most of the songs are from musicals)

Garrett Hawke and Fenris:

“You Matter to Me” Waitress the Musical

I could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes.

They've seen things you never quite say, but I hear

Come out of hiding, I'm right here beside you

And I'll stay there as long as you'll let me

Because you matter to me

Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody

Catherine Tabris and Alistair:

“I won’t say I’m in Love” Hercules

I thought my heart had learned its lesson

It feels so good when you start out

My head is screaming “Get a grip girl”

Unless you're dying to cry your heart out

Girl you can't deny it

Who you are is how you're feeling

Baby we're not buying

Hon we saw you hit the ceiling

Face it like a grown-up

When you gonna own up that you got got got it bad

Maria Hawke and Isabela:

“Too much in Love to Care” Sunset Boulevard

I thought I had Everything I needed My life was set My dreams were in place My heart could see Way into the future All of that goes When I see your face This is crazy You know we should call it a day

Sound advice Great advice

Let's throw it away I can't control All the things I'm feeling We're floating in mid-air If we are fools Well, we're too much in love to care

Lio Lavellan and Dorian:

“All I Ask of You” Phantom of the Opera

Say you love me every waking moment,

turn my head with talk of summertime...

Say you need me with you now and always...

Promise me that all you say is true that's all I ask of you

Let me be your shelter let me be your light 

You're safe, No one will find you your fears are far behind you...

All I want is freedom,a world with no more night and you, always beside me, to hold me...

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime...

say the word and I will follow you...

Share each day with me,

each night, each morning...

Anywhere you go let me go too

Love me - that's all I ask of you...
