Into the Unknown

Written by: Spicy Illustrated by: Carlisle and Bard

Rating: Mature Content Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Fandom(s): Dragon Age 2, Dragon Age Inquisition Major Pairing(s)/Character(s): Fenris/Male Hawke

A fated letter was all it took to send his World crumbling. Fenris felt everything at once as he read about Hawke's potential death, loss, anger and grief. But he wouldn't succumb to it. He'd get Hawke back, no matter if he'd need to march into the fade himself.

got tagged by @curiouslavellan and @herearedragons to pit 5 bad bitches (fave characters) against each other so here u go 👍 Tried to pick ones from what i think are well known fandoms so there isn't too much Popularity Bias xd

The devil went to Georgia but it ends with the devil and that guy making out.

I actually had a concept for a comic called the Beelzebard. In which a homeless drifter finds the magic golden fiddle dropped by the devil's son during his wild night of partying. And the devil trying to get it back from the fellow who is finding great success in playing it for coin on the street.

And then they kiss.

[bumblingdragon]

askdjfhasdkfh idk what algorithm tumblr uses for the "More like this" suggestions (obviously it must be, at least, in part visual) but it's given me a small army of Terin-likes, it kinda freaking me out lol

@beelzebard (i hope you dont mind strange tags) your boy Fletcher just gave me whiplash lmaooo (bottom right)

So guess who now has a third version of Terin...

I originally never planned on playing him in BG3 but then i got the idea of his charming, pretty-boy face being the Dark Urge, that juxtaposition, and i was like 'oh fuck... a chance to emotionally torment him in a new medium? OH sign me UP!'

I want him to be good. I want him to try so hard and then be gutted to find out what he is (ღ˘ ⌣ ˘ღ)~

(also god bless Larian for making the freckles full body, this is going to make me feral)

[transamatus]

i would like to hear about your alistair/zevran/surana t4t4t ship 👁👁 (if you want to, of course)

I can't BELIEVE I never saw this I'm so sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway I'm so glad you asked! My Surana is named Laisal and follows the canon mage origin so that's all self explanatory. But he finds it extremely hard to trust Alistair for a long time due to some really traumatic experiences he suffered in the Circle. Like, Alistair is kind and funny but honestly a lot of the Templars he's met have seemed that way as well, and maybe he didn't want to be a Templar, but he still does have the ability to stifle Laisal's magic if he wanted to and the fact that he seems to be kind and harmless (to Laisal anyway) makes the suspicion worse. They're reasonably friendly by the time Zevran joins their party but he still holds Alistair at arms' length.

This is almost the complete opposite to Zevran, whom Laisal is fully aware could kill him (and would have, without a thought) but instead pledges otherwise. The fact that Zevran doesn't pretend to be anything but what he is to Laisal, even though he's a dangerous killer, is really comforting, and he's the first friend Laisal makes that is utterly unaffiliated with mages, Templars, or the Chantry. (Sten is not, at this point, friendly with Laisal.) Laisal grows close to him very quickly because there aren't really other layers to their relationship? Nothing between them is defined by Laisal's status as a mage.

They're well on their way to a committed relationship by the time Laisal realizes he might also have feelings for Alistair. (Alistair has been pining away for Laisal the entire time but kept it to himself, especially once he and Zevran became an item.) And he just sort of ignores it for a while, because polyamory isn't really on his radar, and because he's absolutely happy with what he has with Zevran and doesn't want it to change. It doesn't really come up until Zevran mentions somewhat casually that he finds Alistair physically attractive, and then overcompensates by getting jealous of Alistair, because he doesn't want to be honest and say that he is interested in Alistair physically and romantically.

He realizes he's being stupid pretty quickly and tells Zevran the truth and then they sort of leave it for a while because he doesn't know how he wants to handle it and Zevran doesn't want to rush him. But eventually he writes Alistair a letter and just. Leaves it in his pack for him to find, hoping to avoid the awkwardness of the conversation but it doesn't work because they still have to talk about it. They do and it works out with some weirdness because navigating new relationships is always weird and meanwhile Alistair is sort of operating under the assumption that he is "sharing" with Zevran until they all find their footing.

It surprises Alistair a lot when he finds himself wanting to be with Zevran as well, instead of both of them being with Laisal individually, and he sits on that because he's been very vocal about not trusting Zevran since they first met. They don't actually have a conversation about renegotiating their relationship dynamic until after the Battle of Denerim and Alistair, at this point, is like "Well, what's the worst that can happen?"

"The worst" is that they all have to separate soon after: Laisal to Amaranthine, Alistair routing the last of the Darkspawn in Ferelden, and Zevran back to Antiva to settle his scores. But they write each other frequently and come back together whenever they can.

And also they're all transmasc <3

Six Sentence Sunday

technically tagged by @imperatrixvini since they tagged everyone (hi!)

tagging @beelzebard lemme see them WIPs!

excerpt from one of my Renlin vignettes. my boy accidentally gets in the way of Morrigan's Disorient spell and says some things about how he feels before it wears off. The reference to giving paper and a book comes from @calligraphypenn 's amazing fic Paper and Cotton.

___________________________

His Warden laid his hand softly on Zevran's cheek, eyes unfocused and dilated, but smile far softer and more open than he'd seen yet, never mind in the presence of others.

"Zevran, I like you so much," Surana slurred, and he felt himself smiling back at the simple sentiment.

He decided to deflect, lest he find himself saying something foolish in return, "I should certainly hope so, with all the delightfully devilish things I do to you in your tent, my Warden."

He got a small frown in response; a pout, really, "No, it's not just- hmph;" Surana seemed to consider for a moment, a crease in his brow, before apparently deciding, "I'd give you paper Zevran, I'd give you paper and all the way up to a book, at least." Behind him, Wynne made a small choking sound and started, in her admonishing way, "Surana," before his Warden interrupted, saying to Zevran,

"She doesn't know anything, she'd give paper to a templar, if she could." He said this as if it was a truly terrible and ridiculous thing, and Zevran suspected that he had stumbled upon another peculiarity of these Circle mages that he was unaware of.

Self-Rec Tag Game

Rules: Share five of your own fanworks (fic, art, etc.). Then, tag five more people to share the things they've made. I’ve put categories below, but they’re more guidelines than rules.  1. Something you absolutely adore 2. Something that was challenging to create 3. Something that makes you laugh (or smile, if that fits more comfortably)  4. Something that surprised you (in how it turned out, how much other people liked it, etc.) 5. Something you want other people to see

Got tagged for this by lovely @shivunin! <33

1. Something you absolutely adore

this one <3 It's not even like, something i put a great deal of effort into or anything, but idk, it just makes me think of the DAO crew in a really fond and nostalgic way and it always gets me in the mood to play Origins

2. Something that was challenging to create

This Hawke estate pixel art i did at one point! I uhh avoid interiors a lot oops (not good, have to stop doing that) & haven't really tried pixel art or isometric art before, so this was tough! Also a lot of fun though :)

3. Something that makes you laugh (or smile, if that fits more comfortably) 

This xdd Because it always makes me think of various Science Endeavors and that is always very fun hehe

4. Something that surprised you (in how it turned out, how much other people liked it, etc.)

That the Sten comic did so well xD I'm glad we all agree though that Sten is very based for respecting people who stand their ground

5. Something you want other people to see

Cowboy centaur Varric bc i miss him :sadyeehaw:

gonna break the last rule and tag (bc i'd love to see so many ppl do this!) @shivunin (sorry if i missed you doing this yourself, this is your excuse to do it >:]), @greypetrel, @ndostairlyrium, @daggerbeanart, @a-drama-addict, @brainwormterrarium, @giantbukonut, @triflingshadows, @goofsoup, @creativegoblin, @superboyconner, @quakingbirch, @absyntthe, @exotic-inquiry, @hoiist, @wabart, @bearsizedant, @beelzebard, @cao-the-dreamer, @bigfan-fanfic @herearedragons, @drunken-drengr, @little-lightning-lavellan, @dreadfutures, @nanowatzophina, @curiouslavellan, and anyone else who'd like to! <3 (if you have several blogs you can ofc do it for a different one than i tagged, and it doesn't have to be DA related of course!)

for the dragon age protag meme, how about 6, 12, and 22?

Ask me abt my da ocs!! (Thalin Mahariel, Dara Surana, Adam Hawke and Arihs Lavellan)

6. What would they think of each other’s combat skills/techniques?

Arihs would be curious abt Dara being a shapeshifter while Dara themself would maybe be a bit put off about Arihs being an assassin. Thalin, Dara and Arihs wouldnt trust Adam's blood magic ESP Dara, they have enough with Jowan and theyve been friends their entire lives. Otherwise they wouldnt think that much abt each others combat ways.

12. Do your protagonists share the same opinions on blood magic?

Asdjfghfhg Obviously Not. Arihs and Thalin dont trust it with a ten foot pole, even tho Arihs would probably be reluctantly ok with it before Thalin would. Dara doesnt like it, he only tolerates it because of his history w Jowan and even then he doesnt want it anywhere near him. And Adam... he doesnt necessarily like it but he understands that how you use it is what makes it evil or not. He had to take a long break from using it after Leandra's death tho.

22. Would you ever ship any of them together?

Nope. None of them would work together as anything romantic and even Dara's relationship with Thalin (and maybe Adam) is strictly brotherly. The only action that i could see happening is Adam maybe getting a crush on Thalin but thats just cause he enjoys pretty men.
