Spite Wants To Set A Flame

Lucanis (and by extension, Spite) have been helping Bellara with her romance novel. Flowery language and smut metaphors lead Spite to some surprising conclusions.

As someone on the autism spectrum, I remember struggling with interpreting metaphor as a young person A LOT. As soon as it was introduced in Veilguard that Bellara was writing some smutty fanfiction, the first thoughts I had were "Oh, the neurospicy gang is gonna struggle." (Mainly Taash and Spite.)

This is fanfiction written by me, @ellie-writes-games. These are NOT actual screenshots from the game. Peace, love, and mad props to the DA writers.

Party banter [complete] | Dragon Age: Veilguard

In case you need 6-hours of character banter to study, DanaDuchy has done an amazing job compiling ALL the party banter for all the companion combinations. Be sure to check out all their channel's banter videos.

It's been extremely helpful for me to listen to, to try and get a better voice down for the characters in my writing.

Also, maybe Taash's and Neve's voice does to something to me. Column A, Column B.

p.s. Taash & Harding start at 05:24:49. 👀

The struggles of writing an academic paper when your main source is "I saw it in this elven god's (whose house I've taken over) memories".

[hyperions-light]

hey no I’m not done obsessing over Bellara and Lucanis’ banter!

When she asks him why his family is just him, Illario and Caterina, and he says everyone else is dead and she feels SO BAD that she apologizes in a follow-up banter, but he brushes it off. And the way he says it, he really isn’t upset she brought it up.

AND THEN LATER, she’s talking about how dramatic the whole thing with Illario was, and he makes a flippant comment about how Antiva is just like that, and she starts going on about how it’s just like her serials and what if one day Illario dramatically sacrifices himself to protect Lucanis—

And THAT’S what gets him, that’s when he asks her to stop.

HIS VOICE ! He just says, “Bellara,” in the most pained tone ever ! And she apologizes and stops but like

EVEN THOUGH Illario did all of that to him, THAT’S what gets him. The thought that his brother might die for him.

AAAAAAGHHH !!!

LUCANIS. LUCANIS!!

(Thank you for getting all of the best reactions out of him Bellara, my love)

Neve and Davrin in the dining hall, where she tries to convince him to join the book club with Bellara, Lucanis, and Emmrich.

Contains spoilers for late-game Treviso.

Davrin: I don’t think I could be less interested. 

Neve: Come on, it’s an evening of wine and arguing with Lucanis. Those are two things I know you like. 

Davrin: Neve, I think you found it.

Neve: What?

Davrin: A way to make me less interested. 

Neve: Spoilsport. I’ll leave you a copy of the next book.

Davrin: I will not be reading it. 

[a few missions later]

Davrin: It just doesn’t seem realistic to me. 

Neve: What’s not?

Davrin: The governor being the poisoner. 

Neve: …Ivenci?

Davrin: No, in Spies of Glory. 

Neve: I must have heard you wrong.

Davrin: I had some time. It should have been the main guy’s brother. 

Neve: Meeting’s at seven. 

Davrin: [heavy sigh]

[vaguely-concerned]

in his and davrin's banters, lucanis exhibits a certain little shit energy I don't think we see him have with anyone else other than illario and honestly I am living for this

Bellara's Other Book

A headcanon I'm developing for a longer series of banters including Bellara, Lucanis, and Spite. I love the idea that Lucanis is super chill with accidentally stumbling upon Bellara's smut fics because he's a canon Romance book stan and her stuff is actually really tame by most standards.

This is fanfiction written by me, @ellie-writes-games. These are NOT actual screenshots from the game. Peace, love, and mad props to the DA writers.

[A subtitle saying "Taash: Doesn't matter how sad you are about doing evil crap if you keep doing it."]

Man, the literal kind isn't the only kind of fire that Taash spits. That's probably the most succinct summary of how I feel about Solas that any character has ever given in this story yet.

LUCANIS

[lady-lunabelle]

So I took Bellara with my Rook and Emmrich during his hardlock romance mission. I can only imagine what she thought when she, after exploring the gardens herself and getting all excited for studying a new area, turned around only to see her leader and professor tonsils deep in each other.
