#also like my inquisitor DOESNT have reasons to hate him

[andrewknightley]

honestly i cant fucking believe they really force me to have cuIIen in the inquisition. this is the thing im dreading the most to replay dai. like if AT LEAST he had a redemption arc thats not "lets pretend nothing too bad happened hehehehihihoohoh"

[marvelstars]

Ahsoka Show

So the first two episodes are out and I really enjoyed them, they are mostly what I expected from Filoni, he´s translating well his narrative style from cartoons to live action.

That said my favorite characters so far appart from Ahsoka herself have been Sabine and Baylan, all the characters get a good treatment, I really liked Hera serving as a bridge between Sabine and Ahsoka and listening to both of them. I also loved Baylan mystery and his relationship with his own apprentice, I get the sense his story as an adversary is going to be the main one here before we get to the Thrawn of it all.

Baylan doesn´t consider himself a Jedi anymore but he´s definitely teaching his apprentice some Jedi traditions, he doesnt seem fallen into the darkside but he definitely became dissapointed in the Jedi Order and their ways, he´s a real mercenary and also he totally knows exactly what happened to Anakin and probably expects to be able to serve as a Darth Vader like figure for the new Empire, just for Thrawn instead of the Emperor.

Power may be one of his reasons but given there´s a theory around saying Thrawn supporters within the Empire are opposing those who are already trying to bring back the Emperor, my guess is that he also wants to be part of the Empire, just one that isn´t neccesarily ran by the Sith Order and Palpatine which would give him a lot of nuance.

Sabine makes me remember one of the more interesting tropes from most animes, which I guess Filoni is taking a clue from, about characters with no natural habilities, those who are no prodigies and get a lot of hate over it, who instead suffer a lot to do half what other characters do easily, that they become a sheer force of nature given their sheer effort/training and will, not natural or hereditary talent. The series is too short to give us the whole journey but I am seeing some of that with Sabine who is force sensitive enough to be trained, just not enough to move objects or other things or maybe her force talent translate into articulating art. Her feelings of passive -agressiveness with Ahsoka are on point given their past but she really wants to get Ahsoka respect and trust back and is willing to work for it.

PD: Now I am just waiting confirmation for Han Solo to also be like Sabine because honestly, he would not have survived half the things that happened to him in the original trilogy if he wasn´t slighty force sensitive. XD

Now Ahsoka is great, I really liked her, liked the fact she wasn´t perfect she doesn´t know how to comunicate with Sabine, she expects too much out of someone she apparently abandoned at some point, she lost her battle with the inquisitor(Who I am still hoping for confirmation that he is in fact Galen Marek, Vader´s apprentice, Vader´s vs Anakin´s apprentices going to battle just ryhmes ) but more than that Ahsoka is still hurting over Anakin and isn´t that interesting? after Malachor I totally would have accepted her to be resentful, wanting to focus on Ezra rescue and forgot everything about Anakin being her former master, in fact that seemed to be her way of thinking in the Mandalorian, when she refused to train Grogu because he made her remember Anakin too much.

But then there´s how she calls Luke "MASTER SKYWALKER" while she considers herself as someone who didn´t got to complete her Jedi training, despite the fact she has decades of traning over Luke and actually lived in the old Jedi temple, so my guess is that she isn´t calling him a Master just because of his force hability, she is calling him a master Jedi because Luke, not her, was able to bring back Anakin back from the darkside, something even master Yoda thought was completely impossible and how happy that must make her but how much this has to hurt that she´s on equal ways being warm and passive agressive with Luke and his new Jedi Order, on the one hand she visits the new school, smiles at Luke and at Grogu but doesn´t stay, she sends Grogu to Luke to be trained but tells her Jedi Droid the Order is over. It´s so subtle but there the feelings she must strongly be suppresing over Luke and his relationship with his father, her former master.

She has an enormous respect for Luke but also her hurt feelings and resentment mean she´s avoiding him because she absolutely knows he doesn´t deserve them, him who grew up without his father and only managed to truly be with him for a few minutes while Ahsoka had years of interactions with Anakin but those feelings are still there anyway.

And this brings me to her being so nostalgic over Anakin again, I have no doubt Luke told her the truth, not the official one the New Republic is using, he told her Anakin defeated the Emperor out of love for him, because Luke bet his life in his father goodness, because he let go of what the Old Jedi called "their life" his lightsaber, on the bet that his father would save him because he knew there was good in him, because he knew his father loved him, he told Ahsoka just like he did with Leia and while this fact makes Ahsoka happy it also makes her feel so sad, so guilty, she doens´t regret leaving Anakin or the Jedi Order, as she told Hera, that still was the right decision for her at the time but she regrets her leaving may have lead to Anakin becoming even more isolated and probably was the reason why he fell to the darkside, that and the fact that when Anakin was so eager to talk to her again, she was too busy dealing with Mandalore to truly talk with him about them. She knows it isn´t her fault but she can´t help but ask herself, why wasn´t I able to bring you back Anakin? I also loved you.

So my guess is that this story is going to be Ahsoka confronting Anakin again, post ROTJ which is bassically my dream come true but also she´s going to confront her master "other" apprentice who may or not may have some very interesting unfinished bussines and feelings over Vader and how he died if he is indeed the canon version of Starkiller.

My inquisitor Daylin Lavellan

she always loved exploring old ruins with her father before she passed at 10,she used to be quite the trouble maker but she became more quiet when her father passed away as they were close, daylins father actually had differebt beliefs than most elves, which was called insane for, he loved exploring old runes, he also believed the legends of the elvhen gods where a load of halla shite and he also believed fenharel not to be a villain. So he was just crazy old Havren to most, Her father had passed away when she was 10 due to a fight that broke out between an invading human camp, but she did get what she knows of the elven gods from him, she was definantly excited and worried her father was mostly correct about the old Elvhen history, Daylin also doesnt quite blame the humans though, even as a kid she did feel that they got to close to human borders so they lashed out. Daylin was also one of their best hunters in her clan and often led huntsShe has a younger sister Amora, shes 5 years younger and the keepers 1st and a fairly decent healer and fighter, she would definantly be interested in Cullen, Though sadly Amora actually died in the Haven event, she was helping her sister with Corypheous and he ended up killing her trying to save daylin, Daylin carried her sister through the mountain pass, but she ended up passing at their small camp, 10 years before Inquisition, she was newly married and newly pregnant by this time, her husband died in the 5th blight, later and she had her son Ta'lan 6 months after her husbands death. she wore braids but hated them eventually got rid of them, she didnt think she could move o after her husbands death but having a lot in common with solas and him being great with her son and willing to teach him magic definantly won her over, Solas taught Daylin and Ta'lan some anchient elven, she could also tell him off but she probably wouldnt, plus she lets talan hit bull with a stick, so everyone is happy and Ta'lan is a young mage, solas was teaching him magic along with rift magic as well, She does have a scar on her hip, got it at 5, she and her dad were in some ruins whe they were attacked by undead, she barely remembers but she was pretty injured, it also is a reason her mother tried forbaying her from exploring, but they butt heads often and arent close sadly, Both daylin and her mother Moria are very stubbon and refused to elaborate when daylin wanted to go explore, trying to make her not want to go, made daylin just grow mkre distant, Often times they are seen argueing but if daylin sees her son around she stops and leave the confrontation as she doesnt want to be the mother hers was, and she takes Ta'lan with her exploring if shes kinda scouted first for dangers, Daylin is a very calm reserved person from when she was a kid, very kind but also weary, Daylin is not a crowd person, and being in the palace for Wicked Eyes Wicked Hearts full of Shem, really made her uncomfortable, like even val rouyox was her first timw in a major shem city and wasnt even that crowded, the orlesians were definantly a different breed of Shem for her to deal with, Daylin definantly got decent at human formalities due to visiting small villiages for trade, but the orlesians were a different breed of shem, Daylin juat made sure no fights broke out, she was a peacekeeper of sorts, though she often traded her meats and furs she had left for stuff for her son, like toys, clothing, and some shem treats he enjoyed, Shes ok woth spiders but undead are not hee favourite, probably the repressed memory of how she got that hip scar, She is a dual daggers rogue, prefers the dual blade daggers and likes having someone at distance to surpress fire like solas and varric with one other like blackwall, cass or bull on frontline with her, shes a decent archer as she was her clans best hunter, her arm prostetic is a dwarven made Lyrium powered arm also made of Nevarite metal, and she did obtain Solas jawbone necklace after tresspasser at their "final" meeting before he left, he gave it to her

[vilha-alder]

with veilguard coming this fall (hopefully) i just went back through the mess that is my canon world, cuz since dlc for origins i just completely ignored A LOT OF SHIT that is canon, cuz it didnt make sense with my characters

So im just gonna rant about my world, cuz i created basically my own story based on the games

So, starting with Heroine of Fereldan, Virsha Brosca, dwarf warrior (who fights with two swords yippe). She dated Alistair, but put him on the throne with Anora. She recruited Loghain (which led to A BIG FUCKING FIGHT WITH ALISTAIR obs) Morrigan was Virsha's best friend, so these two were realy close and both went emotinally through first, Virsha's messy break-up, then through the chaos that was final fight and the child. Morrigan truly cared for Virsha, Loghain was confused the whole time. And they stayed together the night after the did and before the fight. (also why do you guys say that Morrigan is one of the mages who betrays us? She clearly states WHY she left and whatever)

Then the whole Awakening happened. And after that Virsha became close with Zevran, and, eventually, they became a pair. During Witch Hunt, Zevran accompanied Virsha and they both went together with Morrigan through the eluvian and spent several years there helping raise Kieran (FOUND FAMILY ALL AROUNG). Eventually Virsha left back to Amaranthain and was like "wtf did you do during my abscence??? She found sir Pounce-a-lot, contacted everyone from the gang of Awakening, and they all return to create their own little division. The whole "looking for cure thing" is actually their plan. And you know what else? There was another person here that doesnt exist in canon: Fiareniall Lavellan, twin sister of Din'Adalahn Lavellan, who later became Inquisitor. Her story is a whole another drama, cuz both she and her brother were mages. And she was the fourth mage, but their clan didnt want to give her away, so everybody lied that she is not a mage, and she is a skilled hunter who uses bow (while also skilled in magic, everybody in the clan knew. they just hid it. She eventually left, for reasons THAT IS TOO LONG TO EXPLAIN family drama and so on)

So. My Hawke, Mariam, rogue, dated Varric. YES FUCKKK YOUUU BIOWARE!!! Which also led me to change the whole schtick of Varrric and Bianca, or more exactly, Varric learned through years to at least allow himself to love someone new. So there is that (the thing with Bianca in Inquisition happened, but Varric reacted differently and that was the last shit that finally let him heal from the whole thing)

So, after blowing up of the church, Mariam hid Anders and looked for a variants to safely get him out of Kirkwall. Remeber my awakening gang that got together again? Yeah, Virsha learned quite quickly about the whole thing because she made sure to check in on Anders without hum knowing and sent Fiarenial to take him back if he chose to do so. (he did, there is a whole misunderstanding plot where Virsha and gang thought that Anders hated them and Anders thought that they hated him) There is a whole schtick where Virsha and gang just gaslight everyone around them that, no, that is not Anders, the guy who blew up the church, he looks like him? Weird. he is actually Virsha's brother from another mother and his name is Andrei. (and when while small, but quite angry looking heroine of fereldan who is butch and muscular looks at you and just tells that with full confidence, WHATCHA GONNA DO? ARGUE?)

Which bring me to Inquistion. Din'Adalahn Lavellan, mage. Dated Dorian (i literally imagine him during the trailer being in Minrathos with Dorian and looking through the window like "....are you fucking kidding me"

The favourite child, who was sick a lot. He was treated like glass, while also prepared how to lead the clan. Became Herald and that when eventually Fiarenial showed up. (She hid the fact that she is Grey Warden. Also, she and the Amarnathain gang didnt have to deal with calling because Architector helped them with that. When Corypheus started the whole thing with grey wardens, the gang was like "wtf", and Architector send one of the sentient darkspawn as messenger, and blah-blah they agreed, magic and whatever whole another story)

Anyway, Fiaerinal eventually asked Virsha to come (because FIONA??? and also Inquisition could easily aquire a lot of information, so Virsha (and Zevran yes) helped in exchange for information (and also happily spent time with Morrigan) She helped to chose a new commander for orlesian wardens. Also, they mourned Loghain, because through years he became a friend (and like a father to Fiarenial)

yeah...

So going into Veilguar, I think about my Warden, who happily with Zevran and the gang still looks for the cure, and who is protected from calling due to their pact with Architector. (Also Morrigan and Kieran live in Amarathain now, cuz my Inquisitor was the one who drunk from the thing)

About Hawke, who will be so pissed if they kill Varric (that her husband how dare you). Also, girly whatcha doing in Weiishaupt

Abour my Inquisitor, who is just tired and angry at his friend and mentor (Solas) and his sister, who just wants to have a family and has two children with Cullen and also just fucking tired of constant bullshit

[we-are-all-flynn]

yall know when you have an idea for an au and you just cant get it out of your head? anyways,

jatp tmi/shadowhunters au

(its a mix between the show and the books because yeah)

okay here we go

julie as clary - obviously. artistic? curly hair? can see people others cant? short? it just fits. moms dead/missing for most of the narrative. has a hardcore bestie who stays w/ them through everything.

flynn as simon - the iconic best friend. has always had a crush on bestie and even dated them for a bit? ngl i would love to see it with julynn. sort of hates besties s/o and discourages hanging out with them, but eventually has a good relationship. jace and simons relationship is everything and i would love to see it w/ flynn and luke. which brings me to our next point.

luke as jace - now, we are not doing the sibling bit. i simply will not include that because no. anyways, cocky, musical, main love interest, yeah. obviously hes not as narcissistic as jace because that would be mean. but hes still sometime ignorant to others feelings and can be self centered because thats canon anyways.

alex as alec - gay. alex is a stickler for the rules but just because hes anxious. was in love w/ best friend for a while, but got over it when he found his mans. also hes nicer to julie than alex is to clary at first because i said so. doesnt mean hes not still kinda stiff tho.

carrie as izzy - badass girl. falls in love w/ mains best friend. im sorry but i would love to see that one scene in idris with flarrie and alex it would be so funny

willie as magnus - rn im imagining willie in magnus' clothes and makeup and screaming inside. anyways willex as malec is something that can be so personal

rose as jocelyn - julie/clary's mom, absent for a while. idk id rather rose doesn't die like in jatp and shadowhunters so ig we're goin w/ book canon on this one. rose doesnt really hide her past from julie in jatp she just never mentions the boys (which she really had no reason to) but we can relate that to jocelyn hiding her life easily enough.

ray as luke - okay there is no way in hell that im having rose be calebs ex, so we're just gonna say that ray and rose were in the circle sorta like robert and maryse were, ray was one of calebs right hands, realized he was messed up, they planned to leave, ray got turned, rose fled pregnant w/ the cup, they found each other again, raised julie and had carlos, everything was good up until you know when.

OH MY GOD CARLOS AS MAX BUT NOT REALLY BECAUSE HE WONT DIE AND HES JULIES LIL BRO INSTEAD OF ALEX AND CARRIE'S. yes.

victoria as dot - victoria as a warlock is something that can just be so personal. dot was already sorta like a cool aunt to clary, so why not. worked at roses shop.

trevor as robert - carrie and alex's dad. was part of the circle w wifey (who should be maryse? should she be absent like carries mom?) and ray and rose. stayed longer but ultimately left, kept secret from kids. although i like trevor i dont want him to die so he can just be a good inquisitor who supports gays and retires at some point to jia(ms harrison ? 👀), who then retires to alex later on

caleb as valentine - honestly who else would it be. sure its not exact, and i feel like he shouldnt be adoptive dad to luke cause that seems weird, but hes the kind to kidnap someone for what he wants. totally charismatic enough to have a cult following, basically already does.

anyways. i have many more ideas. maybe ill add to this later. also i know i didnt include reggie i just have no idea who he'd be. maybe maya? idk.

[isp-annafer]

Okay. So I just finished watching that 2 hour long retrospective of Dragon Age and I forgot how much I loved the series (though I've only played Origins and Inquisition).

Reminds me of how much I love Solas. Like. As a character. I have such mixed feelings for the asshole. Depending on your choices, he can either be your friend, your lover, or your grudging follower. You learn he's actually at fault for, like, so much shit that happened in Inquisition. He just wants to restore his world, rectify his mistakes, but his way of doing it hurts SO MANY innocents (I think), but he'd still do it anyway. It's the kind of ruthlessness I both admire and hate. You understand his reasons, but that doesnt make what he's doing okay. I want to break that egghead's nose so bad and then shake his shoulders because Solas. SOLAS. I actually LIKED you when you were my companion and this bullshit youre doing is really pushing my fucking buttons oh my god. Based on the title for DA4, then he might as well be the antagonist for that game and I am SO EXCITED for it because Solas is a much better antagonist than Corypheus because you, as a player (if you played Inquisition), have an emotional attachment to his ass (whether or not you loved him or hated him) and I am hyped. I befriend him in most of my playthroughs and the sheer deliciousness of the fucking conflict and drama between him and the Inquisitor waters my soul. How must he feel going against his friend/lover like this, choosing his redemption and doing what he believes may save his People over whatever lingering fondness he may have unwillingnly developed during his time in Inquisition? How does the Inquisitor feel standing against someone they saw as a friend/lover/mentor and knowing that his reasons may be good but that the path he'll take to get there will be dark and full of blood? The drama *chef's kiss*. I also wonder if Solas even sees the modern elves as part of his People? Judging from what I remember from his dialogue and stuff, it doesnt seem like it, so it makes the elves joining his cause seem sad and even manipulative sometimes. There's really no point in this post. I just wanted to say Solas, the dumbass, is one of my favorite parts of DA:I (the other is Cole, hahaha---) and I'm just so excited to see him in DA4 and finally have a chance to kick him in the balls.

[pinksweatergettingbetter]

alright so we’re back with chapter three - the Great Witch

-

i wonder how much of their memories Nick and Maya have actually recuperated 

the whole thing seems a little dodgy...

-

“This bench looks like a torture tool– shall we try it out on you, Nick?”

why is Maya so bloodthirsty in the game?? i mean she’s mischievous, but...

-

ahhh their widdle walking sprites are so cuuuute!

-

hang on– is that a picture-picture of Barnham with his dog?? if so, that should raise a lot of questions...

also why is the only person who *doesnt* comment on the painting Phoenix? he’s the art major.

-

you know, ive seen plenty of Phoenix X Barnham, and Darklaw X Barnham, but I’ve never seen any Phoenix X Darklaw 

i wonder why...

maybe Ive just never come across it

-

“Mr Wright, are you alright?”

(no response)

he's dead guys the fucking dog killed phoenix wright 

-

luke: I can talk to animals maya: haha omg cool! phoenix, laying in a pool of his own blood: hurgle

-

wait did maya just call Barnham adorable by proxy 

-

things layton likes: puzzles, stone lanterns 

-

oh fuck i forgot about the puzzles

also what the FUCK muffet

-

Patty: I believe in your Phoenix

Phoenix, trying not to cry: cool cool cool

-

aww. its nice to have a moment to just talk about feelings, especially between the sidekicks. 

...

...dont go into the forest you little fuckers

-

maya likes helms..??

-

“I used to come here with Nick. He’d carry the water pots, and I’d cheer him on!”

that reminds me, theres no plumbing. in fact, since its the middle ages, theres not even any outhouses. maya and phoenix have canonically shit in the streets

-

DOGS AND CATS, LIVING TOGETHER–

-

its 12:30 on a school night and I've spent over an hour trying to help a dog deliver mail 

oh maya solved that one! thats the first AA solve of the game. ...er, to me.

-

i dont understand how piccarats work

like, the previous puzzle was 30 piccarats and it was ridiculously easy. this one’ twenty and ive already lost ten points

maybe its to do with how my brain works– the 30 one was a pattern/colour puzzle, and I'm an artist. this one’s about directions, and I'm ASS at directions.

-

darklaw what are you WEARING

you look like a skimpy medieval furry

seriously what is with the metal skirt on bare thighs 

is that supposed to be comfy 

-

man these backgrounds are so beautiful 

-

why did she specifically tell Maya to be wary of witches

-

“You certainly both love your food. Personally, I’d just like a little more sleep...”

amen bro

-

oh fuck

Drosselmeyer wants to see Layton. dont let him brainwash ya!

-

“So this is the deathknell dungeon? Looks more like solitary confinement to me.”

considering the fact that she can see out the door, i doubt its solitary nick. solitary is a sealed box from hell.

-

Maya: you were just scared that nick would fuck up like always!! because he's an enormous fuck up haha!! Espella: i... no, i think he's really great

Phoenix: ...hey can i change assistants please

-

OH HO

CLIFF HANGER 

-

one does not simply

visit the storyteller

-

“come to think of it, during that parade, the storyteller did seem to be held in high esteem by all the townsfolk...”

guys have you not realized that youre literally meeting god yet???

ah see Layton’s got it

c’mon luke keep up

-

pfft they think Layton’s a hatter 

just wearing a tophat does not a hatter make 

-

ah the knights garrison

this is where Chucky stopped playing on his second third-space save 

I wonder why...

-

“And so the travellers finally arrived...”

yeah well first of all??? if you wanted me to get in there faster maybe dont make your door a fucking puzzle maybe 

fuck you old man you aint shit 

(btw i managed to solve it accidentally in the recommended 4 turns by pressing 3 random buttons and then realizing id somehow succeeded)

-

Storyteller: [farts suspiciously]

-

Storyteller: you guys are bad because you stopped me killing children

Layton: 

-

“OOPS”

DUFLUS SHFLS 

LUKE ITS OK 

I LOVE YOU TOO MUCH TO BE MAD

-

Espella: it’s true... that the towns folk look at me in a different way

well for one thing youre a different art style than most of them without being anything usually associated with said art style 

-

oh ok that i was not expecting 

she’s,,, jesus???

-

Maya spitting truths here 

-

wait hang on a second 

first of all– “the great witch is just a character of myth” yeah well EVERYONE is a character, Espella

also, she says she came to live with Patty 5 years ago... which is also what Phoenix and Maya said

when their memories all got altered to include phoenix and maya, does that mean they like, had a whole growing-up-together for five years roster of memories?

13 y/o Espella and Maya meeting, bonding over stuff, wondering why only Maya had to make bread and Espella didnt 

Phoenix–– hell, in the time frame, he’d be ‘Pheenie’ being their older brother. Acting like his 25 y/o self, or harkening back to those days and acting accordingly??

and how shitty it must’ve been when they realized none of it ever happened.

-

“Were these things... My memories?”

well probably not considering im pretty sure that tiny kid being flown over was you

-

i feel bad for nick’s... wherever is getting bitten, but this does lend credence to my headcanon that animals hate phoenix so 

also the inquisitor office theme needs to chill the fuck out

-

“Exactly what are you doing over there on all fours”

dont do that 

“He just sits back and lets his dog bite people, err... I mean, me”

he’s lucky nobody flips the fuck out and bites back. i suppose nobody would dare if they knew it was his dog, but still. not very responsible.

-

“Dr. Delduke” eh

well now

-

“He was no witch.” “Why?”

“HE was a man.”

( Welp, can’t argue with that. )

hey!!! equality to witches!! boys can be witches too!!

-

“Maya... can you get this mutt away from me? I can’t feel my leg.”

“Aww... So soon? I was hoping he’d use you as a blue chew toy just one more time.”

ok, seriously, what is UP with Maya? I can’t remember her ever being this violent in the original series. Like, she hit Nick over the head with the shichishito that one time, but she wasn’t constantly wishing harm on him??

-

as much as i appreciate seeing a tiny maya model i fucking hate the cloud puzzle fuck you for doubling up on it

-

oh i lucked into the answer awesome

this seems to be a running theme...

-

every time someone looks at the bell tower, they always comment on the bell never being heard. it must be foreshadowing.

-

wow Jean is very short

...also I'm calling it now, HE DID IT

-

hmm Greyerl’s voice actress is a little more noticeable than Luke’s...

also OH OK. the fucking bell tower just MANIFESTED OUT OF PURE FLAMES

THATS COOL

-

“He reacted in a moster peculiar way. Unlike others who saw it, he seemed unsettled, as if he was truly afraid of something” 

oh i dunno, maybe the DEMON BELL TOWER???

-

Maya: only YOU can fuck up that badly, nick!

ok... genuinely, utterly, seriously, why is Maya so malicious in this game? She does tease Nick a lot throughout the series, but its usually in a more playful or goofy manner. A lot of the things she says in this game seem sort of unnecessary or weirdly hurtful... especially since phoenix hasn’t done much to warrant any of them.

-

hmm

well, I know what happens to Maya

but what the hell is he doing to Nick?

also I do hope there’s a reeeeeaaaaally good reason for all this...

-

layton flings out his arm to shut luke up skdgkafajkf

-

wait why did the owl bring them that

-

“Luke, my boy... We have the need... to rent a steed.”

LAYTON

oh and they fucking did

-

“You think that’s bad? You should see Nick try and do the laundry– Now that’s a major blunder!”

see that seems a little more in character somehow

especially since its something that seems like he would fail at.

still, weirdly insult heavy...

-

hey hey 

100 coins

-

“in an alchemy sense”

shouldn’t that be an ‘alchemical’ sense?

-

“I guess you’re more suited to small, dark, damp places.”

is that a reference to the mushroom thing??

-

phoenix, in someone else’s abandoned basement: oh no their house plants are dying :( ill water them 

this man??? is pure??

-

“Well well well. If it isn't a well.”

NICK

-

“Come to think of it... I haven’t noticed any plumbing here in Laborynthia.”

HA 

I WAS RIGHT

THEY SHIT IN THE STREETS

-

“As things stand, Mr. Wright is in serious danger!”

uh the story said Maya would die, not Phoenix. It said he’d be cursed, but Maya would be tried and burnt. You should probably be more worried about her...

-

great witch: sup guys I'm gonna fuck shit up

game: the following is too horrifying to look directly at; here, have some shenanigans with Luke and that other bard Bardly was complaining about.

-

“Birdly”

fuck you perhaps

-

NO

WHY IS EMEER THERE

NOO

-

also hi Layton you’re looking a bit uh 

a bit 

...well this hardly makes any sense

doesn’t Layton appear not long after this? also, it’s easy enough to prove Maya’s not a witch; just hand her the staff and ask her to politely turn Layton back. 

that or just cry on him real quick; worked for Ash

-

bweuuuhhh dont cry luke pls

luuuuke

its ok luke magic isn’t real luke

...though from what I’ve heard of your universe, someone could have used Science to turn him into gold and that could be totally real so

just 

c’mon in for a hug lil guy

also see yuh all next time for part... four? i think?

[arcann]

@freudiscancelled im an idiot and deleted the ask.

salty ask: 1 (of course), 17, 5, 6

1.  What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?

Dragon Age: Probably Iron Bull x Dorian? At this moment its a trainwreck bc its received official sanction and now were going to tolerate the fact that iron bull told everyone what dorian did with him in private even tho dorian asks him to stop every damn time. Im just picking some plants in my accursed inquisitorial life and suddenly harassment is happening in my team? Goodbye forever IB youre just in the inquisition bc Krem comes along but I would so kick him out. But then Bioware tells me it worked out alright? With all we know those two and how they treat each other’s culture/religion/race???... geez

SWTOR: whats up with shipping arcann or lana with ls!jedi? 

5. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

maybe Sera or Solas x Lavellan since i have Huge issues about people i love policing and mocking what i do and don’t believe

6. Has fandom ever made you enjoy a pairing you previously hated?

I guess I started to like Hawke x Varric bc of some really great fanfics? Not that I hated them together but nothing about the game really made me ship it. not even the actual flirts there.

17. Instead of XYZ happening, I would have made ABC happen…

OH BOY I COULD WRITE BUT I HAVE A THESIS TO PSEUDO START

The “Chosen One” vibes that inquisition gives are scratched. You can say no to being Andrastes whatever and the game respects that. The mage vs templar conflict is actually ? important? same with the orlesian conflict. whole plot happens in orlais bc my tolerance for old england once more was super thin. corypheus is just a side plot and not the main villain? merrill instead of morrigan as the elven expert? flemeth not dying or at least not being killed by solas? someone competent as military advisor instead of mr. “i got the job of the year bc im a white guy” cullen? hawke doesnt get railroaded into dying or going to the grey wardens bc reasons? vivienne and sera’s plot making more sense? leliana not being so easily swayed by the inquisitor? ughgdh this is so obvious and basic but It Is Necessary

((also im writing this in questions bc its like im asking for basic decency from biower))

Also I would delete G*rrett Hawkes mug from existence... or have another trailer with Marian....

For star wars the plot painting kyle ron as an irredeemable monster (more emphasis!!!!), swtor not killing the exile and putting revan in the spotlight, kotfe/kotet and sor never happening, more focus in companions in each storyline similar to kotor...

[sky-scribbles]

Hello, hello! For that ever fun Inquisition Ask Meme, could you do 3 & 4 for Elera, and 9 & 14 for Talan? :3

This’ll be good, thanks for asking! *cracks knuckles* Putting this below the cut, ‘cause it turned out long.

3. What is their first impression of their companions?

For Elera Lavellan, the blind Dalish dreamer mage.

With Cassandra, it was initially hostility - Chantry humans were the kind of people Elera had always been warned to stay away from, and this one was not only accusing her of mass murder but touching her without permission. (Word of advice: if you want Elera to like you, always ask for permission to touch her. She’s OK with being touched, she just hates not knowing that it’s coming.) Once Cassandra allowed her to have a weapon and showed willingness to believe that she was innocent, she softened her opinion somewhat, though she remained wary for a time.

Solas earned her instant respect for his knowledge of complex magic, and for his magical abilities. Elera saw him as the one figure in the first battle that she could trust (erp), since he was a fellow elven apostate surrounded by Chantry servants, and in the aftermath, where he revealed his knowledge of the Fade and affinity for spirits, her respect for him was cemented. A heartbreaking best-friendship was born.

She liked Varric right away for his jokes, and was curious about him, having never really interacted much with a dwarf before. She also knew he was linked to the Champion, too, and was eager to know more.

Vivienne won her respect for her command of magic, and for having the calm, emotion-masking grace that Elera tries to have herself… though it was mingled with the suspicion that a Dalish mage is naturally going to have for a Circle loyalist. She had no idea why in the Creators’ name anyone would want to be in a Circle - though she was willing to listen and try to understand.

With Sera, it was originally a sort of scholarly curiosity - ‘so this is what an elf becomes without any elven culture to guide them?’ Thankfully, she didn’t voice that aloud, and she was also rather amused by Sera’s spirit and odd way of phrasing just about everything. The spark of an amazing unlikely friendship was born.

Bull, she had no idea what to make of at first - whatever she expected a qunari to be like, this wasn’t it. Suspicious of his status as Ben-Hassrath but willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Elera pretty much made up her mind not to form any first impressions of him, but wait until she had a chance to talk properly to him - the only thing she really took away from their first encounter was approval of his obvious love for his men.

With Dorian, she was very curious to see what a human mage who lived free and embraced their magic was like. She was wary - Tevinter and elves aren’t exactly best friends - but she could tell he was on their side, so she put her mistrust aside for the time being.

Things were so mad when she ran into Cole that she didn’t have much time or energy to form a solid impression, but she could tell instantly that he was a spirit - he had a sort of feel of the Fade about him - and that made her instantly predisposed to like him and trust him.

And Blackwall?

So much was decided in that moment where he held up his shield to block that arrow that would have killed her. She was prepared to like him already, because a) Wardens are Dalish allies, and b) she’d talked to Giles the farmer in the Crossroads and listened to him singing Blackwall’s praises. And then the guy blocked an arrow meant for her. 

She’ll never admit it, but Elera is terrified of how easily she could just be killed without any idea that it was coming. This man stepped forward to stop it from happening, even though they were strangers. He didn’t draw attention to the fact that he’d done it, either, which might well have embarrassed her. What he was doing with his temporary conscripts impressed her immensely, too - and then the icing on the cake was when he offered to help her, and not for any personal agenda. Just to help.

It wasn’t love at first sight. Heck, it would be impossible for Elera to have love at first sight. But it was definitely the spark of something close.

Ugh, that became long.

4. Where does your Inquisitor spend most of their time in Haven? In Skyhold?

In Haven, Elera actually spent most of her time in Solas’s little hut. The two of them spent hours talking about the Fade and spirits, occasionally making forays into the Fade, and as they became closer friends, he even read to books from her. She also spent a decent amount of time down in the tavern talking to Sera - and, of course, outside the smithy, chatting with Blackwall about the places they’d travelled, and slowly falling for him.

In Skyhold, where she feels a bit more comfortable, Elera likes to pass time in her own room, because she knows where everything is and doesn’t have to worry about tripping over unexpected objects. She often sings to herself to pass the time, or just enters the Fade to wander around in a place where she can see for a while. She can also be found in the stables a lot, for obvious reasons, practising her magic while Blackwall works at his carving. If she’s not there, then - as in Haven - she can be found in Solas’s rotunda or Sera’s tavern room. She tends not to wander much into other places unless there’s a friend with her, because she’s worried about getting lost or falling over and making a fool of herself.

9. Was your Inquisitor pleased or displeased about Morrigan joining the Inquisition?

For my Qunari quizzie, Talan Adaar.

Talan had no reason to be displeased - he doesn’t get magic stuff, so having more people around who understand it is a good thing in his books. Sure, Morrigan seemed a tag shady, but she couldn’t be worse than the apostate elf with apparently no past, the Fade spirit, the Tevinter, or the Ben-Hassrath spy. She’d helped him out and she knew her stuff; that was all he needed to accept her, even if he did keep an eye on her at first.

14. Who drank from the Well of Sorrows?

Morrigan. Talan’s not very ambitious; any power the well could offer him wasn’t really a temptation. He didn’t have a clue what to do with crazy elven magic, and he’s a careful guy - he didn’t want to do something that could kill him, leaving the Inquisition without a leader, Meraad without a brother and Cassandra without a lover. In his eyes, Morrigan was in every way the more qualified, and if she was willing to take the risk, it was her choice.

Thanks again for asking! :D

[the-rxven-king]

Do you mind shatring why you're uncomfortable with Adoribull? I admit I've never thought about it too much in terms of possible problems...

yea i can try i have a few reasons but about 3/4s of it DOES kinda stem from the “uncomfortable for literally no reason” kinda thing

ive never had adoribull in a playthrough of mine because in both playthroughs that ive actually gotten to a point where it would trigger in i actually romanced dorian so it never happened, but i HAVE listened to all the banter thanks to a youtube video someone made (which i have actually just relistened to for the purpose of answering this properly and making sure i wasnt remembering properly since i started avoiding adoribull like the plague after listening to it all) so that was enough of the experience for me

ill put it under a cut and whoever doesnt want to read it doesnt have to

please note these are my interpretations of it and that i am in no way trying to shit on adoribull because i hate being that person who ruins other peoples fun and who knows other people might take the same things in a different way than me and thats all good and well but i dont want to have any discourse or anything in my inbox

the banter between them in itself just makes me so uncomfortable???? just in general???? every time bull speaks to him dorian just seems so…. unhappy? or agitated i guess is a better word for it. 

thats honestly enough for me not to like it. thats not all of it (like i said most of the reason is just general dislike that i cant put my finger on) but its enough. i hate how dorian sounds talking to bull because he always seems so upset by it, especially when bull makes dirty comments/jokes (example being his… lovely. description. (aka the thing relistening to this video that reminded me why i truly truly truly didnt like it) of what hed do to dorian if he were able to and dorian just being like w h a t and bull being like thats not what we were talking about and dorian saying no it waSNT???? yea. shit like that. constantly.)

also bull is just???? so open about it? which isnt necessarily a bad thing! the only reason its bad in this case is because dorian doesnt seem want this out there and hes upset by the fact bull it just telling everyone anything they want to know while he wants to keep what happens with them between them. bull should respect that. bull should at least WAIT for dorian to be more comfortable talking about their relationship before he talks about it in the way he does when prompted. dorians comfort is just as important as bulls

tbh thats…. thats all i can think of right now but its enough to make me dislike it. theres also the fact that ive never really been a big fan of bull???? like there are times where im like lmao bull is so funny hes great and hes also super nice but then the rest of the time im just like can he just…. l e ave….. n o w…..

literally most of the time i only recruit bull for krem. because krem is important to me. 

so i guess thats helps with not liking it? oh and i know that with different people comes a different romantic experience but the inquisitor and dorian just seems so much healthier and happier? like its sweet and gentle and dorian seems so happy and in love and its so good? so you compare it to him and bull and you just wonder wtf happened there yknow? where is that kind of tenderness and happiness with bull???? i cant fuckin find it????? where is it aside from fanon??? 

not ONLY that but bull seems a lot more considerate and thoughtful in his OWN romance???? which i just watched for the first time just to see since i made the comparison to dorians???? i dont know. it just feels off

but yea…. there you go. thats my reasoning i suppose

post lord of shadows thoughts and predictions

okay time to round up all this shit in one post. this is still all over the place though sorry, it’s in no order just writing shit down as it comes to me. this is going to be super long and spoilery so it’s under a read more

1. I enjoyed Lord of Shadows much more than Lady Midnight. LM was good but it felt very bogged down in character and plot introduction, not its fault it had a lot to introduce lmao. Wasn’t super excited to read los after lm cause it wasn’t that memorable, but now I’m dying for Queen of Air and Darkness. 2. Since LM was (I’m pretty sure been a while) told exclusively through the older kids povs, ty and livvy felt super young despite only be 2 years younger than Julian and Emma, but they really felt like teenagers who are just tired of being treated and seen as children in this one. 3. Um I really feel for Malcolm. Like a lot. Listen I know he went a little of the deep end there, but no one could argue against that he loves Annabel more than anything. All the diary entries and the house he built for them honestly kill me. I really don’t believe he left her alone on purpose which makes me sad because Annabel died believing he betrayed her and that was one of the reasons she killed him. I’m excited to see him before he knew the truth about Annabel in TLH. 4. Speaking of Annabel holy shit. Something is definitely not right with her. I like how powerful she is and she was pretty endearing at the end, she actually kind’ve reminds me of cecily. also I’m dying cause I just remembered while writing this that everyone thought that Livvy looked alike Annabel kill me. I definitely didn’t think she meant to do what she did at the end, obvs an explanation is not an excuse 😏, but she lashes out and then gets scared. she seems to regret killing livvy the moment after it happens and I’m interested to see how this affects her. 5. So I guess with no inquisitor that exile thing is not gonna work. but I still believe that cortana will have something to do with breaking the parabatai bond…it can cut through anything after all. 6. Speaking of cutting through anything EMMA FUCKING BROKE THE MORTAL SWORD. LIKE THAT CAN NOT BE GOOD AT ALL. AND WHAT WAS THAT BLACK SHIT INSIDE OF IT??? 7. I’m scared what Livvy’s death is going to do to Julian because the guy has really been slipping down the mental health slope for a while now. not gonna lie, Julian was TERRIFYING in this book. he really doesn’t give a shit about anyone that isn’t Emma or family. also the red flag for me was when him and Emma were arguing and he smashed that glass, like that is not a good way to take out your anger, but I mean Emma immediately puts a hole in the wall so they’re both not the best examples for how to act in a healthy relationship. also, despite what he told Emma, he seems to be absolutely fine with breaking every other parabatai bond just to be with Emma. listen I love Julian but he seems to be slipping a lil into antagonist territory. 8. Not that Emma wasn’t cutthroat either. she didn’t even consider mercy when it came to Annabel, she was gonna slice right through her, u know until the unseelie king spirited her away. 9. Kit and Ty were adorable. also has it been confirmed that they’re the Wicked Power protagonists? because if not I’m p sure they are. 10. I was so happy to be back at the London Institute. I loved all the little tid and tlh hints everywhere (jem and will’s height charts 😭😭😭) um so Bridget is still super alive somehow uuuuhh?? how??? jessamine is a darling brat as usual. love her. also that line where Magnus said they weren’t the first to think to burn down the blackthorn manor?? tlh reference maybe? 11. while Mark/Emma will always hold a place in my heart I really warmed up to Emma/Julian and Mark/Cristina/Kieran. btw I really feel like that’s gonna end in polyamory, I think cc has been wanting to write and actual poly relationship ( I love herongraystairs but I don’t think it technically counts going by only canon) for a while now, and while only Mark/Cristina and Mark/Kieran were introduced in lm, Cristina and Kieran def gotta a lot closer in this book and seemed to have a lot of romantic tension. anyway new ot3. 12. if u know anything about me u know I’M A SLUT FOR JEM AND TESSA. anytime they were mentioned I started breathing heavy. still sad they didn’t actually appear in this one, but it seems set up for them to appear in the final one speaking of… 13. listen I love Magnus and I want no harm to come to him but TESSA IS SICK I CANT DEAL WITH THIS. LIKE CAN HER AND JEM JUST BE HAPPY AND HEALTHY WITHOUT SOME INCURABLE ILLNESS HANGING OVER THEM. and like what other warlocks have been affected??? IS CATARINA OKAY? 14. y'all that guy with green skin has gotta be ragnor there is not doubt in my mind. cc has always regretted killing him and I’ve been waiting for this tree colored man to return for a while now. I want to know why he’s in hiding tho and he like bolted when Magnus showed up on the scene. 15. EY YO FUCK THE COHORT AND FUCK ZARA. at first I thought they were a little too cartoony of villains, like there was no complexity to them, they just seem like straight up douche nozzles all the time, but then I remembered that they’re based off real issues right now and people really do think like this sooo. but like Zara is absolutely the worst, how dare and her awful buddies talk shit to my children. everytime anything came out of her mouth I was like-LETS GO. OUTISDE. RIGHT NOW. TRIAL BY COMBAT, YOU LYING SNAKE. 16. I really loved the seelie and unseelie courts and their differences. like I agree cc is a little long winded, but her writing has greatly improved since CoB and it really showed in this one for me. I like the unseelie king and I hope we get to see more of him in the next book, and maybe more of Kieran’s brothers, wouldn’t want to let all those cute faerie boys go to waste. 17. as much as I hate to say it, I’m p sure that the seelie court member that was stolen by the unseelie was Sebastian’s and the seelie queen’s kid. LIKE I HOPE IM SO WRONG AND THAT THAT FUCKING KID DOESNT EXIST BUT ALL SIGNS SEEM TO BE POINTING TO HELL CHILD. 18. speaking of Sebastian, the way cc was talking about him before los came out, I was really expecting something big about him to happen, like his ghost (or demon seed ugh) he was barely even mentioned except closer to the end there. 19. oh yeah I can’t believe Clary’s dead???? like I’ve never been a big fan of clary or jace but the way she talked about like she’s already accepted it killed me. like if this happens it’s going to ruin jace. 20. I’ve become very endeared to Dru throughout los, I think she’s my fav blackthorn besides Julian. she’s chubby which is fucking GREAT and tho the whole pretend I’m not 13 thing with Jaime made me a lil uncomfy, he didn’t really flirt with her or anything and their friendship was really cute. it seems to me cc is setting her up with that Ash kid that appeared for 2 seconds. YO @emmascxrstairs JUST ROCKED MY WHOLE WORLD AND SAID THAT ASH IS THE DEMON SPAWN AND IM MAD BECAUSE OF COURSE HE IS LMAO FLEW RIGHT PAST ME. 21. that’s one thing that kills me with cc books, is that other than the main romances it’s usually super easy to tell who ends with who, and that she feels the need to pair EVERYONE OFF. lmao I was actually wondering why a love interest hadn’t been introduced for Livvy yet (Kit doesn’t count cause after that first kiss, it was real obvs him and ty were gonna be the thing) and then she died and I was like…oh…that’s why. 22. like many predicted, Diana is trans and im crying she’s amazing. her and Gwyn caught me off guard but I’m not gonna lie, they’re really cute. 23. also omg I just thought with livvy dying, what if Julian blames it on himself and the parabatai curse kill me. 24.so yeah all in all 👌👌👌 very good would recommend. now time to get fucking pumped for the last hours

[tsukishima-tadashi]

a list of characters from dragon age i will defend until i die:

Goldanna (oh no! she doesn’t trust/instantly love a stranger who shows up claiming to be her brother!! how will poor alibaby survive? how drae she be bitter after being kicked out following her mothers death and forced to survive on her own as a child!! boohoo)

Queen Anora the One True Monarch of Ferelden (god, how dare a competent ruler who knows what shes doing want to maintain her throne! what a bitch! and what, what a backstabber, lying about being kidnapped after we tell loghain’s men shes with us when she just got done telling us she was in disguise because she doesnt want loghain’s men to find her. ugh! my poor listening skills are totally her fault)

Isolde (I’d need to explain why I hate Eamon to say why I like Isolde but while I dont forgive her for how she treated Alistair I sympathize with her and think the situation in Redcliffe is actually Eamons fault ngl)

Branka (heavily implied she went insane because of how becoming a paragon made her more of an icon instead of a person and that when she says “I am your paragon” its her giving into the role of someone who only lives for the dwarven people - again I dont forgive her actions but I want to acknowledge how she was affected by being put on a pedestal)

Loghain (a man abandoned a doomed military operation and a king who refused to attend tactical meetings in favor of pestering the wardens for stories because he was more concerned with glory than making sure his men had the best chance? the nerve. and now he doesnt want to accept help from the imperialistic nation that raped his mother in front of him (after threatening to kill him, a little boy, to get her to comply) and then bashed her skull in (again, in front of him), saw beat unarmed farmers to death,. etc etc, that he risked life and limb to gain independence from, watching friends die for the same cause? the nation that he knows “helped” nevarra during the 2nd blight only to take it over rigth after? how obtuse.)

Bhelen (he honestly loves Rica to the point where he felt safe crying in front of her after his dad died, when asked about fathers death he says “father just couldn’t live without you, implying jealousy re: the fact that bhelen is canonically the unfavorite of Endrin’s children, he forces Orzammar to give up the traditions that are strangling it, and in the Descent DLC (if you played an Aeducan) we find out that he hasnt given up on searching for the warden (whereas harrowmont does) after they go to find a cure for the calling, and (if the warden was a dwarf) spared no expense on the wardens paragon statue (whereas harrowmont cuts corners with the costs and is probably jealous)

Velanna (obv not NT and she Gets Better and her resolution to create new culture for the dalish is admirable)

Merrill (she’s not dumb. she knows what shes doing. nothing wouldve gone wrong if it wasnt for the fact that Marethari refused to leave her be. everything is maretharis fault. the eluvian isnt evil, its a tool. an object. morrigan fixed an eluvian and no one calls her an idiot.)

Fenris (hes a survivor of slavery, abuse, and rape. i think hes entitled to a little bitterness and distrust even if i disagree with what he says)

Gamlen (this is like. the one im least passionate about but. he had  no obligation to leandra. she ran way. he had no reason to think she was coming back. and hes right to be bitter that his parents only cared about leandra when he was taking care of them until the day they died. and when he asks leandra to clean hes right to say she can help out a little. she isnt a noblewoman anymore. theyre in poverty. if she wanted to have the kind of life where she didnt have to lift a finger she shouldnt have ran off with malcolm.)

Sebastian Vael (hes literally the least preachy chantry faithful character ever?? he suggest dalish beliefs and chantry beliefs arent neccesarily incompatible. he doesnt shame isabela or try to get her to repent. he offers fenris a job despite his being an elf. he acknowledges that “preaching seldom works”. he tells tallis that he knows the chantry has failed the elves. hes very wise and open minded. he just isnt willing to tolerate a terrorist)

Carver (he has an inferiority complex due to his father’s (neccesary) neglect. cut him slack.)

Sera (she has a right to resent people who treat her like crap - the dalish can be nasty to city elves. she says in trespasser that they made her feel “broken”. and she matures a lot in trespasser so shut up.)

Vivienne (she cares a lot about mages. thats why she hates the rebel mages. theyve killed people. theyve killed other mages. theyve made the common man afraid of them, made them hate them. as divine she gives mages both freedom and responsibility and keeps the templars on a tight leash. shes passionate about this issue because she believes in the circles. shes also one of people who goes out of her way to make sure the inquisitor is feeling okay after stressful events. she is very compassionate. and nasty to people who are nasty to her. thats her right.)

Solas (too long for this post)

Blackwall (hes trying)

Celene (long drawn out sigh)

Calpernia (do i really need to)

Clarel (let me BE)

Fiona

Alexius

Mayor Gregory Dedrick

Mistress Poulin

Characters I will berate until I die:

Alistair (I dont HATE him I just thinks hes a little selfish and needs to get over Ostagar and start taking responsibility and thinking more about others)

Eamon (UGH. UGH!! Sexist traditionalist asshole. Wants to use Alistair as a puppet. Married a girl years younger than him. Probably knew Connor was a mage and did nothing because hes so concerned with blood! what the fuck)

Harrowmont (he isnt nice. hes a conservative. those things arent nice. he level dust town if you give him golems. he refuses outside support for orzammar that he desperately needs)

Anders (UGH. its not even just the terrorist bit! hes an asshole to EVERYONE. he tries to “educate” merrill on chantry beliefs. implies shes stupid for not accepting what the circle spoonfed him. and then expects her and other dalish mages to care abotu circle mages. he calls isabela a “side dish”. he compares fenris, a former slave that has survived rape and abuse, to an animal and constantly antagonizes him, going as far to ask why he didnt kill himself. he calls aveline an idiot on multiple occasions. he tells a city elf warden that “you dont get locked up for who you are” when. hello. alienages?? aight. doesnt give a damn about elf oppression, just mages. hes an asshole. the terrorism is just icing on the shit flavored cake.)

[diableriepervert]

all inquisitor asks >:3

OH FUCK YOU

romeo's specialization is that of the assasin because i personally thought it sounded cool

romeo decorated skyhold with draconic themes because he wanted to fought hard killing those dragons and mught as well get some use out of them

he doesn't like being called the herald at all but as an inside joke when he has to go under cover he will introduce himself as "harold but all my friends call me harry" none one ever laughs

hates the chantry, thinks the whole "maker abandoned everyone" thing is stupid, he thinks andraste was a cool mage whos story got highly exaggerated not unlike his own

he doesnt have a favorite follower because he doesn't acknowledge that part and trys to remove himself from the pedestal he's on, his favorite adviser is Josephine, he does have a younger brother dynamic with cullen though

romeo couldn't help falling in love with dorian, Dorian is the first person who's ever flirted with romeo, first everything really, romeo also unfortunately has 'i can change him' syndrome

he immediately told dorian about the letter, he couldnt have lied to him even if he wanted to, to lovesick. he didn't get dorian to forgive his father, he was to worried to think about what dorian might want in the future and in the moment just simply asked if he wanted to leave and go back to skyhold

at first romeo didnt know what to think of sera, but after spending some time with her they had fun spreading some harmless chaos and pranks together, romeo always wanted a sister and he found one in sera

romeo could never sacrifice the chargers, even if not for bulls sake but selfishly his own, he's grown very close to krem dalish and skinner in particular

he 100% supports leliana as devine, he loves the idea of the mage college and wouldnt want it any other way

romeo gave vivianne the wyvern heart

he didn't drink from the well of sorrows, one reason being that he didnt want to disappoint solas and the other being that he's made dorian almost watch him die far to many times

romeo never had a proper father figure, just Nin, who can best be described as 'its hard being a single mother when youre a 12 year old teenage boy with no kids' mixed with the over protection of someone whos lost everything, so when solas was vaguely a teacher figure towards him romeo was like "ah yes this is my dad" and just wanted solas to be proud of him

while his favorite adviser is Josephine his most trusted adviser is Leliana

the companions he feels most comfortable around are cole, dorian and bull

romeo was furious at the corruption of the wardens, he loved the hero of fereldens story as a teen, so for this to be their legacy he was severely disappointed and wanted better for him, for all that he sacrificed

romeo follows the strict belief that the only good templar is an ex templar whi realized being a templar is stupid

he's not very good at it, but he loves playing wicked grace, it let's him have a moment to simply live in the presence of those he loves

he of course allowed cole to stay, he felt good knowing that there would always be someone for anyone who needed it, no matter how small. He encouraged cole to be forgiving and stay a spirit

romeo didnt trust morrigan but he liked her, that is until he tried to lecture him, an dalish elf, on dalish history, go against the sentinals wishes and disrespected abelas

he hates the circles, while he does understand that magic can't be roaming wild he cant stand the idea of how mages are treated in circles

biggest regret? hes got a few, his first is when dorian told him he was going back to tevinter he was to scared of holding dorian back and making hin feel trapped that he let him leave without putting up any fight, like he didnt care. the next being that he never let those around him know how much he cared for them, he feels as though him being the inquisitor and not letting anyone ever know how much he was always hurting and scared is the reason everyone left in the end, that he wasn't a person but an idea to them, and not being able to save his clan, that he couldnt save his family and once again made Nin lose a clan

his greatest triumph is dorian, being in love with him, being loved by him, and watching him change for the better

romeo was mostly confused about blackwalls true story, while a little hurt he mainly just wondered how blackwall was never found out before this despite it being so obvious, maybe he's just to trusting but he forgave him and sentenced him to stay in the inquisition

romeo has to much faith in people, its nearly impossible to lose his trust, unless you are morrigan of course but thats just common sense

he supports cassandra rebuilding the seekers simply because he trusts her

romeo disbands the inquisition, he knows that the only way to continue to try and save the man he calls his friend is to not be spied on by said friend

he forced all three of those idiots at halamshiral to work together and rule, they were acting like children so the solution is to treat them as such

of course he let solas kill those mages. Mage rights except for those guys in particular, fuck them

I made the choice between alistair and hawke to leave hawke behind BUT in my canon romeo would never be able to chose who should die or live and my hawke would never let there be an option for anyone but him to stay behind, so in my canon im pretending stroud was there instead to be sacrificed, he knocks out hawke and makes the romeo carry him out. Rip stroud ypur a real homie for that

romeo never really believed he was the herald or that andraste was anything other than a strong mage so he wasn't to surprised that it wasn't andraste herself that saved him

romeo doesn't really cope well at all being inquisitor, he overworks himself and bottles anything troublesome until cole outs him, not even that coles reading him he just is the only one romeo confides in because he knows cole would be upset otherwise

he doesn't really care for bianca, loves the crossbow, thinks varric deserves much better than the woman

he let josephine solve her family problem her own way but let leliana help, he trusts she shes knows what shes doing

cullen did NOT start taking lyrium again, romeo is so proud of how far cullen has come away from the templars and would never let him fall back into that trap

emerald knight loot goes to the dalish, he knows its what his clan would have done

romeo hates tevinter, one for all the negative aspects of it ie slavery, blood magic, homophobia, transphobia, ect..., but also for taking dorian from him.

his favorite bard song is the one about sera

romeo is proud to be an elvhen inquisitor, not being because hes dalish dalish but simply as an elf, he won't let anyone take that from him

he got along well with the champion, he and hawke became friends quickly, they spend a lot of time together after the exalted council

romeo looks up to saint (mahariel), as someone who is also dalish and suddlenly being forced to save the world he thinks its comforting that saint got to be happy and find love at the end of his story

call it an elf thing but hes very proud of all he's accomplished
