#davrin/rook/emmrich

[tigereyes45]

I finished the game and wrote this to cope with the feels.

Summary:

When Emmrich thought they may die, he asked a simply question. Did Davrin really leave Assan to him in his will. Davrin laughed and said no, he left him to Neve. Emmrich had nothing to say to that then.

Now that all three of them have survived the whole ordeal involving the gods, he has to admit that the joke bothered him more than it should have.

Preview of fic:

No point in dwelling on it. That would only delay the relief he hopes for. “Davrin,” Emmrich begins pulling a book from the shelf. “while we were fighting through Elgar’nan’s forces, do you remember when I asked if you had actually left Assan to me in your will?”

“No worries there, Emmrich. As I said I’ve left him to Neve.”

“Neve!” Rook shouts, sounding affronted.

Davrin laughs. His whole body shakes with his laughter, as his head dips down, landing gently on top of Assan. Rook is still playfully glaring at him, when Davrin settles down enough to talk. “In the event that you and I are gone, Rook.” He insists, craning his neck, and reaching up to hold Rook’s dangling arm.

It’s a tender moment. One that sends a minor pang of jealousy through his heart. It shouldn’t bother him. Ever since he joined their relationship the two have been more than welcoming. Why wouldn’t they be? It was the two of them that initiated things with him after all.

Emmrich looks down at the book in his hand. ‘Legends of Fen’Harel’. Where was this last month? He considers the book seriously as he admits, “When I asked that, I was hoping you had.” 

“What?” There’s surprise in Davrin’s tone. Surprise and joy. He’s still having a nice time. 

Good. Perhaps this issue will not ruin the grey warden’s mood. Emmrich pushes on.

“I wouldn't mind taking care of him,” Emmrich waves the hand that holds the book. He thinks back to their first conversation on this subject. When Davrin had announced he left Assan to him in his will. Emmrich was shocked. He did not want that responsibility. How would he even go about learning the ways to take care of and train a griffon? Then he got even, telling Davrin he would so long as he could leave Manfred’s well being to Davrin in his own will. The grey warden had immediately backed down then. Perhaps, now that he considers it, Emmrich may have brought these confusing feelings down on himself. 

“As long as you entrusted his welfare to me.” Emmrich adds. Finally look over at the pair. “Manfred has grown quite fond of Assan as well.” 

Rook was all smiles as they watch Emmrich. The arm Davrin had held was still dangling by his face. Davrin himself seemed to have realized that his joke had caused more pain than intended. The expression he watches Emmrich with is nothing short of soft.

家人侠参上

[high-dragon-bait]

Davrin's gingerwort truffle tea date is objectively the most hilarious romance moment in the entirety of Dragon Age. This man sets up a wholeass romantic picnic for his incredibly stressed out partner/boss. He sees they need this, so he handles absolutely everything. In his mind they're going to sit together, eat, drink, and then make sweet love in the beautiful Arlathan forest. He even went to Emmrich for a special tea recipe. It's all going well. And then Rook takes one sip of the tea, stares blankly at Assan (the animal) and then looks back at Davrin and earnestly, says to him

"Assan just talked to me"

And the entire afternoon just disappears

Ranking the Veilguard companions Hookup Potential based on the kind of bed situation they have going on in the Lighthouse

(im in early act 2 so have no idea what further romance scenes are actually like, this is just jokin time without any romance spoilers. just pics of how their respective rooms in the lighthouse look and some basic characterization we know about them)

Taash: 8/10

In another game or the real world I would only rate this a 5 because they have no pillows or addition blankets. however they do have a real bedframe AND it's big enough for 2 which means the they are doing better than 90% of the rest of the Veilguard so this score gets boosted. And while there's not many blankets, there are plenty of braziers around the room to keep you warm, and Taash is probably their own miniature furnace to cuddle up to. Crucially, they also have a whole wheel of cheese next to the bed, which means you don't even have to leave the covers to get a snack after.

Lucanis: 1/10

Oh no. I'm not even going to comment on the pantry angle because everyone else asks him about that to begin with, so this is just about the bed. Unfortunately the bed is a cot made of uneven wooden planks with some blankets on top of it, and is only wide enough for 1. This is because Lucanis hates sleeping and doesn't want to do it, so the less tempting his bed is, the better for him. Unfortunately this means sleepover potential is dreadful and you will have to find alternate solutions. He does at least have another blanket to go over him and one that's presumably being used as a pillow, so, he gets a 1 instead of a 0, but I am still planning on gifting him coupons for a back massage for Satinalia.

Bellara: 4/10

This setup is perfectly fine for sleeping. It's the lighthouse standard little bed couch thing, has a mattress/cushion, is elevated off the floor, has a pillow, and she's got her blankets folded below. Perfectly serviceable for getting a good night's rest which we know Bellara is not because she forgot to sleep again. However, it's very much a one person sized setup. You might be able to cuddle for a while but if one of you unconsciously tries to roll over you are going right to the floor. Ouch.

Lace Harding: 5/10

You might be wondring "why is sleeping on the floor rated higher than bellara's" and the answer is because this means you are not rolling off the bed onto the floor. it's not going to be comfy but we are not ranking comfort here we're ranking sleepover potential. Harding has managed to make this space look homey and the canopy gives the illusion of being in a tent or canopy bed to help with that illusion. There are rugs down on the floor plus the blankets and pillows--we know Harding is used to sleeping on the ground due to her career as a scout, and I'm sure she can scrounge up more blankets to make the cushioning big enough for the both of you. Your back WILL hurt in the morning but you'll get to have a fun night first.

Neve: 3/10

Girl I know you can do better than this. Which means you're not trying to on purpose, so, live your life I guess. I will say this cot IS bounds nicer than Lucanis's--you can see its a stretched canvas or hide on a frame rather than wooden planks, so it will have a little more give. However they are not THAT much comfier which I know having slept on this modern equivalent many times. Neve also apparently has 0 pillows or blankets so you're out of luck there, as well as the problem of it only being wide enough for 1 again. This woman has too many other things going on to think about romance so your Rook is going to be the one improvising on that matter I think.

Davrin: 10/10

Now here is a man who has his life together. Double or queen size mattress, rustic bed frame he probably lovingly carved and assembled himself by hand, and not only are there sheets AND blankets AND pillows, they are are full on matching set and this knight in shining armor dutifully makes the bed every morning. There's also enough pillows for two! While the remains of a giant corpse is hanging above you all night, the spacing of the ribs still gives you lots of room above to manouver, so just don't worry about that. As a bonus you'll probably even have a baby griffon come to cuddle in the night which is such a cute thought we're going to ignore how much worse getting stepped on by a griffon foot would be than even the biggest fattest housecat trying to stand on your stomach at 4:30am. My one criticism of the setup here is that due to the bed's positioning if the person on the inside needs to get up in the night they'll have to awkwardly crawl over the person on the outside, however everyone else's bed situation is so dismal I'm not even going to subtract a point for that. Great work Davrin.

Emmrich: ???/10

Where... does this man sleep. Peepaw I KNOW you can't be sitting in that armchair all night you need your beauty rest!!! There are 0 beds or cots or floor blankets in this man's room. HOW am I supposed to break his pelvis if he has nowhere for us to lie down??? We can't risk that old man's spine on the cobblestone.

Wait... unless. No, surly not. I mean--jk. Unless...? 😳😳😳

is daddy necromancer gonna fuck me on the sacrifice slab... 😳😳😳🥵🥵🥵

Bonus:

Solas 11/10

does not matter where he actually slept bc once my inquisitor Gets Him again they WILL be fucking on top of the piano in front of the mural in his Yearning Room

This fic was inspired by Emmrich's comments when you find Brona's Blooms while looking for Lavendel's physician.

Summary:

Emmrich saw the hardy Brona's Bloom flowers and knew two people he wanted to gift some too. People who are just as resilient against the blight as the flowers had been.

Inspired by Emmrich complimenting the flowers for being hardy and resistant to the blight in 'The Cabin in the Blight' side quest.

Preview of the fic:

Somehow despite all the tragedy that had befallen Lavendel, Rook could still pull a smile onto people’s faces. A couple of questions, a well-timed joke, and they civilians and grey wardens grow happier. Much like the flowers, the living grow hardier. Their fears are assuaged by the joy. However brief.

Davrin is quick to remind the people what they’ve survived. The gods, an archdemon, the fall of Weisshaupt, and days of the blight assaulting this land. They’re holding out. That’s the first step to winning, Davrin says. He’s strong, stalwart, and determined. He makes everyone else feel sure of themselves.

They’ve both become strong while with the wardens.

Hardy.

Emmrich smiles to himself as they stroll through the eluvian. No wonder he thought the flowers were perfect for them.
