One thing that I find myself appreciating about solavellan is how Solas doesn’t coddle Lavellan at all. He offers help and guidance, of course, but he doesn’t treat her like a dumb baby who is incapable of higher thinking or can’t understand consequences.

If Lavellan does fucks up it’s not met with a patronizing, infantilizing, chauvinistic attitude. He’s very much like, “hey wtf you’re smarter than this get it together”.

I love solavellan so much because it’s a dynamic that is naturally sprinkled with power imbalances (mortal x immortal, head of a world power x elven apostate, etc.) yet they truly treat each other as equals.

Their love is built on a foundation of deep respect for one another and that means so much to me.

#could also be bc of my personality #but i HATE domineering relationship dynamics #and solavellan is just so far away from that I love it so so so much #was thinking about that dialogue after well of sorrows #if you choose the ‘idk what to do with the well right now I’m just focusing on cory’#he fully disapproves and says very plainly that that’s not good enough the entire world is looking towards you #if you don’t make a decision someone else will #and idk that just rlly struck a cord w me #but again I’m very much a tough love kind of person and solas is kinda a tough love character #dai
