#cassarric is my otp

[miranita]

some warmups I posted on twitter

i missed these two sm 😭

[elfroottales]

I just want them to be happy

let's skip to the good part

[twiintaurus]

C, X, O

C: A pairing you wish you shipped, but just can’t.

Tbh this is gonna be controversial but FRUK. Not even cuz I ship USUK cuz I don’t. I don’t ship either tbh. But I like the idea of FRUK and like when it’s a part of fics I’m reading but I never seek them out as the main pairing in anything I read. I know they’re a super popular ship but I just can’t bring myself to care enough abt them ;-;

X: 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms.

1. RusAme - Hetalia

2. DaveSol - Homestuck (this one takes me wayyy back)

3. Cassarric - Dragon Age

O: Choose a song at random, what ship does it remind you of?

I just shuffled my Spotify likes for this:

Forever by Night Tapes

It reminds me of Gerita cuz it feels like a sweet promise from Germany to Italy that as long as they’re together they can do whatever silly things Italy wants (mostly lazing around and doing nothing lmao)

Here’s the link to the ask game!

[bigturtl]

trophy husband varric. idk. that’s all i have to say

[cassandrapentayaaaaas]

A bi-annual Wicked Grace game at the Tethraghast house, wherein Varric takes his guests for everything they have, while his kids pick up some choice Tevene and Qunlat swears.

You can totally reblog, and big thanks for taking the time to look at my scribbles!

[angrykittybarbarian]

WIP of a little Cassarric comic I’m working on featuring a very horrible excuse on why the Inquisitor catches Cass and Varric kissing....

To be continued....

#8 for Cassaric CLEARLY ;)

Have I told you lately, that I love you? :P 

8. Someone straddling the other while they’re “trying to read” and slowly getting them to put the book away.

Cassandra reclined on the day lounge in Varric’s office, reading his latest issue of Swords & Shields for what amounted to possibly the tenth time in as many days. The Knight Captain was holding the traitor hostage, and though Cassandra knew exactly how it would end (the man would somehow, frustratingly, get away), she still bit her lip and flew through the words as if it was the first time. She could sense Varric looming close, bobbing in and out of sight in the corner of her eye.

“You’ve read that issue more times than my editor.” Varric’s voice was an annoyance – Cassandra batted him away with a hand without peeling her eyes from the text.

“If you didn’t have such obvious poor taste, maybe I’d pay you to look at this shit first instead. Andraste’s bleeding ass, no one else is buying it. I should just stop publishing it altogether – probably save some coin. And my reputation.”

Varric’s hands began to slide down Cassandra’s bare legs, starting at her bent knees and caressing down to inner thighs. She batted him away again, one hand balancing the open book, the other swatting ink-stained fingers from the line of her tunic – his tunic.

“You are supposed to be writing,” she accused.

“I was,” Varric said. “Up until I started thinking about fucking you.”

She peeked up from the paragraph she was on, mildly intrigued. “Oh?” His brown eyes were blown wide, a hopeful grin was plastered on his face. Varric pressed up against her bent legs, arousal fully evident. “You have been thinking a lot.” He gripped her knees and rocked into her.

“Open up, Cass, you’re not even on the good part.”

“How can you tell?” She let the book fall shut in her lap, thumb still trapped between the pages.  

“Oh, you get this red flush from here,” he trailed a finger over her collarbone, “up to here.” His hand caressed her cheek. “Hey there it is.” Cassandra felt the flush rise up in just the pattern he described.

Varric smiled so wide she wanted to smack him and kiss him both. It was a feeling she was intimately familiar with. As he brushed her cheek with a thumb, softly caressing over the long scar that marred her face, she gave in to her sentimental nature. Cassandra dropped the book, page marking long forgotten, and snapped open her knees to let him in.

Real life was far better than fiction.

For the character meme do Cassandra?

favorite thing about them

I love that she’s a super badass fighter but also a soft squishy romantic on the inside. I love that she’s blunt, even if she doesn’t mean to be and finds it a bad trait. I love that she’s so passionate, and that it leads her to being brash or having trouble quelling her anger, but she’s also fiercely loyal and loving. I JUST LOVE CASSANDRA ALLEGRA PORTIA CALOGARA FILOMENA *DISGUSTED NOISE* “GET ON WITH IT” PENTAGHAST

least favorite thing about them

I don’t like her lack of respect for other faiths/faithless. Like she has some really shitty lines early on in DAI and really talks down to anyone who doesn’t say they’re straight up Andrastrian. But over all I think that’s more shitty writing than anything >.>

favorite line

UM first to come to mind: "Romance is not the sole province of dithering ladies in frilly dresses. It is passion. It is being swept away by the pursuit of an idea. What is not to like about that?"

brOTP

I think she and Sera have a really fun relationship. Iron Bull too. I like the idea of her and Dorian becoming friends. But really the ultimate bro is Cullen. I personally like to think they end up with a legitimate brother/sister relationship. She needs a brother type, and he needs someone to call him on his shit. It’s a beautiful thing. 

OTP

Oh hm that’s a difficult question I really need to t--VARRIC. MOTHERFUCKING. TETHRAS. Cassarric is it for me. Ultimate OTP to end all OTPs. 

nOTP

Given the bro answer: Cullen. I think it’s a vaguely popular ship? I just personally see them as siblings. 

random headcanon

I have a lot, and yet right now I’m just drawing a blank. I think because so much has become ingrained in my interpretation of Cass I don’t feel like they’re headcanons anymore? Does that make sense?

unpopular opinion

Probably that I ship her with Varric? LOL I don’t care though, because like they have a great evolution in game and there’s a lot to explore between them. 

song i associate with them

I have a lot of songs I kinda end up associating with her for one reason or another. For this I’ll pick Is There Anyone Out There by Delta Rae.

favorite picture of them

omg there’s so much good fanart I could never pick one so I’ll pick something from the game and NOW I CAN’T FIND MY SCREENCAP WHY

But when she gets the Swords and Shields book and she looks down at it all lovingly with a little smile. 

That.

A M N?

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.

Oh gosh this is the hardest question for me, because I don’t think i’m allowed to just say “All of them”! Hawke/Merrill of course is my always-ship. I’ve been reading a lot of Fenris rare-pairings recently, Cassarric yes always, and then there is my Advisors OT3 that I feel like the only person that ships it!

M - Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.

MERRILL WOULD BE THE BEST, MOST SWEETEST FRIEND EVER AAA

N - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).

Rare ships, I always want more rare ships

“The Common People” fics. I feel like Dragon age is so ripe for TCP fics, with how accepted OCs are and the worldbuilding being so rich, but I can only  think of a handful off the top of my head (but if you know any more feel free to rec me!)

OMG, BE NICE TO EACH OTHER i swear some days

[cassandrapentayaaaaas]

Solas: close your eyes and tell me what it is that you see, Seeker.

Cassandra: … Varric’s chest hair

Varric: its great, isnt it?

Cassandra: shhhhh don't ruin it by talking

[cassandrapentayaaaaas]

I have a feeling that if I want to see a steadier flow of Cassarric fanfic content being produced, I'm going to have to do it myself... However, I'm not talented enough to pick up this challenge and that leaves me grumpy.
