Baby griffin: *in a corner, chewing the fleshy bits off the skull of a decapitated Hurlock*

mycenaean miku

If we can't pet Assan in DA:TV, I riot.

This little crocheted dude came out to about 10" long (not counting the tail) and 7" tall (not counting the wings stretching up). The tail and wings are wired and fully posable. I used the pattern "Griffin" by Kayla Shea as a base for this project, though I heavily modified the pattern as I went to get the look I wanted.

okay, now I gotta go ice my hands for the next 6 hours bc they're about to fall off after all that work byeeee

DATV + Finding a Baby Headcanons

go ahead and disagree but this how I imagine the Veilguard being if they randomly came across an abandoned baby and brought them back to the Lighthouse

Neve : Knows how to take care of the baby. Immediately goes into caretaker mode. Is also the most active in trying to find where the baby comes from. Does not do baby talk. The baby probably lives in her room or in Rook's room.

Bellara : Loves babies. Does not know how to take care of one. Will give the baby a ton of affection and will read to them. Will communicate in Baby Talk for weeks

Taash : Also knows how to take care of the baby. Very gentle. Wears clothes pin on nose when its their turn to change the baby. Teaches everyone how to swaddle the baby and talks shit to whomever does it wrong. Does not do baby talk.

Harding : One of the biggest worry-warts when it comes to the baby. Second-guesses herself a lot but does her best. Likes to show the baby plants and what plant is good for what. Goes between baby talk and regular talk.

Emmrich : Another big worry-wart about the baby. Does not know how to take care of the baby but is reading and trying to follow Neve and Taash's example. Does baby talk when alone with the baby. Also reads to the baby.

Davrin : Does not know how to take care of the baby and tries to avoid any type of baby duty when possible. Loves making the baby laugh. Hates changing the diaper. Also active in trying to find where the baby comes from. Finds himself slipping into baby talk randomly.

Lucanis : Does not know how to take care of the baby. Will put the baby on the counter or table in a basket while he's cooking. Sings Antivan lullabies. Makes puree foods for the baby. Will randomly slip into baby talk.

Spite : Talks a lot of shit to Lucanis about the way he takes care of the baby but is not actively helping in any way. Especially when it comes to changing the baby.

Assan & Manfred : They are so excited to be big brothers. Will argue with their dads about spending time with the baby.

Rook : This up to you guys

I actually teared up a bit when I saw this precious little baby in the trailer.

For those of you who haven't read the books, griffons were believed to be extinct in Thedas for hundreds of years until the Wardens found a clutch of unhatched griffon eggs in Last Flight.

That there's a baby one running around as a Warden's animal companion several years later suggests that not only were they successful in hatching those eggs, but also that they've been breeding more griffons. The griffons are making a comeback as a species!!!

(We know this one is still a baby because Wardens used to ride griffons into battle, and this one obviously isn't big enough for that yet.)

△ △ △ Snakespots. Snakespots can u hear me in there? Snakespots r u single? 👉👈

Is he ok with Ghosts? bc that's kinda the deciding factor here XD

(1/10, not invasive or uncomfortable bc Snake is a shameless flirt too and probably misses that in the afterlife rfhbrgf)

the difference in post-vg rook de riva pregnancies are delicious to me in that:

with emmrich, its a dream come true - the dream finally realized, late and yet, exactly when it was meant to. he's already spent years planning this moment, planning with past faces that he scants remembers as they become so easily replaced by her, & now its no longer a dream. its reality. its in his hands. & how he dotes on her! she doesn't want for nothing, no craving left unsatiated, no desire unfulfilled, all that she wants is met with "of course, dearest". his hand is always on her; in her hair as he pulls it back when nauseas takes hold & on her neck when she lulls her head back as the scent of something hits her wrong; the small of her back when they take their walks to ease the discomfort of a restless baby; holding her hand when she loops her arm around his as they talk to nevarran nobles & senior mourn watchers & the occasional crow. he knows the fade can make dreams reality, turn ideas into truth, & that is what rook has done; she's made real a dream he has long ago put to rest.

with lucanis, its a delicious nightmare - more an anticipated & a dreadfully torrent affair that even an antivan crown birth could not overshadow. lucanis is rightfully terrified outright; his mother was murdered by another house, his father most likely as well, & he watched catarina bury eight other grandchildren due to crow politics. he has barely seen himself as a man, let alone a father. whether he absconds for some time to grapple with the news or not doesn't overshadow how absolutely wild viago goes; if he does leave, viago will never forget it & its only through teia & rook that he even relents when lucanis returns, & if lucanis doesn't leave, viago becomes an unnecessary appendage of the pregnancy. "this isn't just a pregnancy, rook, it's a message; a clear message" house dellamorte lives; house dellamorte will survive. this pregnancy also is a shield for rook; a woman who once ruined a talon operation, who the fifth talon has to negotiate & plead for safe exile, is now the only one who carries the next dellamorte heir - catarina is furious because she cannot make a move. having rook in her favour was necessary after she slayed a god, & with thedas practically in her pocket (her mother is the hof & her father the inquisitor, all of thedas is at her disposal) it would be stupid to rebuke her - but she didn't have to like her. she didn't have to approve of lucanis' love & illario's strange infatuation ("you picked the wrong dellamorte" is something she doesn't forget) but it was just a waiting game; now, with her pregnant (& of course rook knows this pregnancy protects her, that it gives her more sway across the crows) catarina can't do anything unless she truly wants her house to disappear - & there are houses that are waiting, wanting, just such an end. theres also a struggle of where to have the baby, where the baby will stay mostly - which house will they take. a lot of lucanis & viago going back & forth till catarina steps up to the plate & then rook has to play the mother/god-killer card.

bonus: viago will absolutely be the most awful protective & overbearing brother. rook better not be pregnant BEFORE she's married or else she will never hear the end of it because he refuses to have her first child - his first nephew/niece - be a bastard. teia finds the whole exchange fun & her & rook probably are the most normal during the whole exchange, talking about baby names & picking out drapery & fabric for the nursery.
