// my dragon age worldstate romances

[supoctosss]

Thinking about Anders and Hawke on the run is my favorite thing in the world. I just know my Hawke is using The Incident to her advantage in every single argument 😌

Anders: No, this is the third night in a row we’ve gone out to a bar, what if we get caught?

Hawke, under her breathe: You didn’t think about getting caught when you BLEW UP THE CHANTRY

Anders: You right babe😔

[violaviolets]

Anders reached up to take Garrett’s hands and pull them away from his face. That—none of this was what he wanted to hear. “Because I’m a Circle mage and you’re Lord Amell? Do you really think that matters? Do you think the templars would care in the slightest about your title, or your estate, or your riches if they knew the truth about you?”

“Of course not—”

“Then you know that this—” Anders held up his hand and summoned a small flame to lick around his fingers “—this is the only thing that matters. And in this we’re the same.”

Sharing the Amell finery

[stop-breaking-my-heart-dragonage]

Hawke/Anders/Carver/Merrill are one of my favorite party dynamics in DA because:

--a spirit healer, two blood mages, and an absolute tank of a warrior walk into a bar-

--my Hawke romances Anders so Carver's stuck listening to his brother hit on this dude every time they go out. When he isn't internally screaming, he's grumbling, "of all the men in Kirkwall, you just HAD to pick the most annoying apostate in the sewers, you just HAD TO-"

--but Carver's in no place to judge when he has a major crush on Merrill, a blood mage. She smiles at him and he's useless muddled mush on the floor.

--Edgar Hawke is the #1 Carver/Merrill shipper in Kirkwall and he's about to make it Carver's problem.

--Merrill is Edgar's best friend [don't tell Varric] and she's mostly just vibin' until it's either time to be so cute I can't handle it, attack enemies, sass Anders for being a shit, or ask Carver if he's talking dirty to her and then tell him he's the best sworder in Kirkwall, but then act oblivious when Carver tries asking her out.

--the Hawke brothers usually have to separate Anders and Merrill before they start pulling hair and kicking each other.

--every time the group finds a locked chest, they just stand around it like:

Edgar: Hmmm... *looks to party* Carver: I thought the eldest was the best at everything. Merrill: Um, no? Definitely not? Ever? Anders: I'm a Mage, not a miracle worker. Edgar: ...It's probably just another moth-eaten scarf anyway, it's fine, ONWARD!

--Anders and Carver: Blood magic bad. Edgar and Merrill, blood mages: *look at each other, then at the camera like they're on The Office.*

--the Legacy DLC is just Anders and Carver losing their minds, Edgar in a constant state of PaNIc over his brother and boyfriend but pretending everything is fine with jokes, wholesome brother bonding over the fact that Malcolm did some shit, and Merrill being like, "C'mon, let Corypheus out, what's the worst that could happen??"

--Anders: I'll show you why mages are feared! *heals Carver, who just chugged a stamina potion* RUN! WHILE YOU CAN!

--Edgar and Merrill actually showing enemies why mages are feared when they activate Blood Mage to run themselves through with their staves, Merrill gives them all nightmarish visions that leave them stunned while Edgar throws everyone around with force magic.

--honestly the shit these four scream in combat makes every battle just-

Edgar: One more for me! We're keeping score, right?! Merrill: Hello! I'm Merrill! And I'll be your distraction! You can't hit me! Carver: You! Me! And an audience! THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT! Anders: *intense, stressed, incoherent screaming*

--already by the end of Act 1, Anders is an OP healer, Edgar and Merrill are powerful blood mages, and Carver's practically unkillable.

--by Act 3, Anders just blew up the Chantry, but he can resurrect fallen party members so he gets to live. He and Edgar are broken up. Ed is Not Okay™ and ready to throw himself in the ocean and swim back to Fereldan. Carver's an absolute OP, indestructible Grey Warden two seconds away from smashing Anders into magey dust for hurting his brother. Merrill thinks it's a pretty evening to defeat Meredith "don't-call-me-a-tyrant-even-though-I'm-absolutely-a-tyrant" Stannard with the aid of blood magic.

In conclusion, they're chaotic and dramatic and it's a good bad time all around.

Anybody out there have any good fem!hawke/anders fics they can recommend? I just finished the game again and I have a Mighty Need to read something that isn’t just my own fic over and over again 🤣😅

[kaeoticneutral]

@ghostfire 's art caught me directly in the feels this morning. I haven't played this game in YEARS and those lines still get me so torn up.

Returning from Skyhold/Hiding Near Weisshaupt

My first reaction to seeing that Anders tagged concept art was hostility. Anders is basically a punching bag throughout the Dragon Age games, unless you pick your path carefully. I could, though, handle it if that was just one of many possibilities - a sort of “contents of your Anders cave will vary due to player choices” thing. So I decided to make my own future.

Anders: “I should have trusted you. Even with all we’ve shared, I never thought you’d spare my life. If we live through this, you know I’ll be hunted. No one in Kirkwall will offer me mercy. But, if you would join me, I’d rather be on the run with you than safe with anyone else.”

Hawke: “Then we will be fugitives together.”

Anders: “We will fight for a world where our children can be born mages, and free. Ten years, a hundred years from now, someone like me will love someone like you, and there will be no templars to tear them apart. May the Maker bring us victory, or everything else is meaningless.”

It wasn’t going well, yes, Anders?

Davrin has beef with everyone because a) zevran is a crow, b) anders is an abomination, and c) solas

I expect nothing but chaos from this entire situation I have put myself into

[supoctosss]

Quick intro of my DAO-DAI MC with pictures :)

Olive Tabris-Double dagger city elf, guarded and standoffish, romanced Zevran and at the end of Trespasser is traveling with Zevran, Anders, and Hawke to look for the cure

Cornelia Hawke- Mage, romanced Anders but very much slept around before they were official, loud and talkative, doesn’t notice much and can come off as very ditzy

Nesialwyn Lavellan- Fade Rift Dalish mage, despite loving her heritage and history Nesia despises traveling, though will often go into the deep woods to feel like she’s back with her clan (canonically they are all dead😭) romances Cullen and absolutely loves her farming life, resented responsibility and disbanded the Inquisition without a second thought, and is working to redeem her best friends Solas, I headcannon she has a little girl but idk how it’ll work out with Veilguard

I used PicCrew for all these bc I can’t draw and haven’t gotten commissions for them yet 😭 my Rook’s introduction will be tomorrow, I am literally shaking from excitement rn

⚖️ Love and justice ⚖️

My piece for @mhanderszine, go check out the full zine for all the other amazing art!

[mooshs-crack-headcanons]

I think it's funny that when Cassandra gathers ppl to save the world you get the (mostly) het Inquisition. But when Varric gathers people it's always a wild pack of deranged fruits, AKA the DA2 crew minus Sebastian (the dlc straight) and the Veilguard minus Solas (status pending)

Idk what to put as a ending post image so here's Varric with his cleavage out
