#also I could see thane and solas either being the best of friends or the most polite rivalry Skyhold has ever seen

Okay I know I already put them in Kirkwall but can we talk about putting Shepard and Garrus in either of the other games.

Like in Origins they’re chasing after a corrupt leader that betrayed his own and is running a spear campaign against them and in Inquisition they’re fighting against an ancient mostly forgotten evil that returned and they have to rally as many allies as they can.

Either way Shepard is very much feeling the Deja vu and is fucking pissed about it okay

I had the realization that swapping BioWare main characters (and SO’s) still gets you to the same place but in wildly different ways

Like do I think Hawke and Fenris could have taken on the ME2 suicide mission successfully? 100% absolutely as soon as someone explained what the hell a space ship was. Do I think they would have burnt Cerberus to the ground the first time someone looked at Fen’s ears funny and just gone wholly fucking rogue? 1000%. Fenris would have found a way to rip the illusion man's throat out through his ass via hologram tops five minutes in.

Similarly I think Shep and Garrus would have handled Kirkwall but i do think the fight with the qunari would have happened so much sooner and would have ended with Shep full head butting the arishok and knocking his ass out cold. also Merideth would have gotten her ass sniped approximately five seconds after she was rude to Shepard for the first time
