#i love morrigan so much - she was like miranda from mass effect for me

[hoboblaidd]

all yall got me thinking about Solas' relationship with the advisors. In sum, I don't think he engages with them a whole lot beyond necessity.

I don't see why he'd ever need to interact with Cullen, unless it's to impart some knowledge he has of a strategic area the Inquisition is planning to move into. He has a low opinion of Templars and any fear-mongering about mages. Cullen may no longer (nominally) be a Templar, but his distrust of mages remains. In low approval dialogue, Solas says the mages in Kirkwall were provoked into blowing up the Chantry, and I don't think he'd much care for former-Templar Cullen's "it takes two to tango" view of the mage-templar war.

He interacts with Josie the most since he needs her to find him an eclectic collection of obscure books. We know she likes his stories, and we know he loves talking, so there's casual conversation in passing between them. She also has a throwaway line I love where she praises Solas' cool head when dealing with some Orlesian who threw a drink or something at him for being an apostate. But he's careful when talking to her, since he knows what he says is likely to make it back to Lelianna.

He gives Lelianna a wide berth, which is no mean feat since they share a rotunda. She's a woman who deals in information, which is dangerous given all he's withholding. He's very careful in what he says in any conversation with her or within earshot of her/her agents. That said, he makes a careful study of her methods the entire year of the Inquisition. Thanks to that, he stays one step ahead of them post-Inquisition, and I'm convinced that his "spies in the Inquisition" are folks who were there from the start - both servants and some elven agents of Lelianna's.

To throw Morrigan here for good measure, as we see very clearly in the game, he's incredibly antagonistic towards her. Everything she says about elves pisses him off. He's dismissive of her, sarcastic, and downright rude. It's another version of his antagonism towards Vivienne - it stems from a place of similarity. They're both arrogant, stubborn, and convinced they're right. The only difference between him and Morrigan re: elves is that he is right, which just makes him more arrogant and dismissive of her.

[thatswhatsushesaid]

not a head cannon question exactly, but who did you romance across the bioware games (mass effect and DA)? and who do you wish you could romance?

oh damn this is a good one, and the answer for dragon age is literally everyone at least once lmao. I played the games with a small armada of wardens, hawkes, and then a smaller number of inquisitors, because I just was not as into dragon age inquisition as I was da:o and da2. but if you made me choose my favourite romance option for each individual game, then I'm going to be horribly predictable about it: morrigan narrowly beats zevran out as my favourite origins romance (like by the thinnest of possible margins, mind you, they might as well be tied); in da2 I am absolutely trash for anders, tho I have watched playthroughs of his romance with lady hawke and do not vibe with it as much as I do with dude hawke; annnnd in inquisition, yeah, I love the egg elf ok. he's horrible and arrogant and condescending and I love him, and also my lavellan low key wants to kill him now, so maybe I don't romance him properly lol

in terms of who I wish I could have romanced in dragon age, oh hell, who doesn't want to romance varric? but also since I loved the awakening expansion, I absolutely would have thrown myself off a cliff for the legion of the dead companion that game gives us, sigrun, and maybe I wrote a few little stories about her with my lady aeducan warden!! just a few, more like drabbles honestly. anyway I hope we see her again even if she isn't romanceable.

for mass effect, I have romanced all the original me1 squadmates and don't feel particularly wow'd by any of them because I am ride or die for both garrus vakarian and tali'zorah until the end of time 🙌 back when I still played the games on pc I specifically modded my game to make tali romanceable by female shepard and still am annoyed over 10 years out that she and garrus are apparently down to fuck aliens but they draw the line at being gay about it. anyway tl;dr I tried to romance other squadmates in the original trilogy, i really did, but even tho kaidan and male shepard do have a sweet arc in me3 and I found the payoff for romancing miranda successfully from me2 into me3 compelling (her carmen san diego energy is very sexy), I just. I know the type of trash I am, and I am trash for relationships between people who derive transparent joy from each other's company, have each other's backs even when they disagree with each other, and also who need help from a doctor when it comes time to fuck because they come from different planets and might accidentally poison each other if they 'ingest.'

....shit I actually forgot that mass effect andromeda existed for a moment but that doesn't really change my answer much lmao. I romanced vetra but uh, hand to god I can't remember much else about the game because it didn't really do much for me, so I don't know if there's anyone else I really *wish* I could have romanced.

Video Game Questionnaire

I was tagged by @alyssalenko. Thank you for the tag! 

Rules: Fill in your answers below and tag some buddies!

-Games-

First game you ever played: The first two I spent more time with were Accolade and 8bit Prince of Persia. 

Favourite game: It is difficult for me to name just one. Those I replay on a regular basis are Mass Effect (the original trilogy), Dragon Age 2 and Dragon Age Inquisition, KOTOR 2 and SWTOR. 

Game you hated at first but now love: I do not believe I can name one that would fit these criteria. I give a game 1-2 hrs, and if I do not like it afterwards, I do not play it. My gaming time is limited and I do not want to spend it by playing games that I do not like. 

Game you used to love but now hate: I do not believe I have one. Either I like the game => I play it, or I do not like it and it gets deleted from my laptop. Simple as that.

Game with the best group/companion(s): KOTOR 2! Nothin beats Atton, Kreia and Bao-dur. 

A game with your favourite ending: Mass Effect 2. I have spoken.  

A game with the WORST ending: It is a tie between Mass effect 3 and DAI. Both of these endings were anti-climatic for me.

Best character customization?: DAI and SWTOR. I am always fond of playing as a non-human character. 

-Hero and Companions-

Your favourite playable character:  Commander Shepard.

The funniest playable character: Funny? Let me think. I did not give it much thought. I find some quips and replies funny, but a character as a whole? Purple Hawke might be the closest match. And some replies by Jedi Knight in SWTOR. 

Your favourite companion(s): Damn, I am sure I will forget someone. Oh well. Atton Rand, Kreia, HK-47, Zaeed Massani, Aria, Wrex, Morrigan, Anders, Madam de Fer, Malavai Quinn.

Companions you could live without: Liara in ME1, Tali, Mission Vao, Sera, Broonmark. 

-Relationships-

Favourite game friendship(s):  Commander Shepard and David Anderson. Leliana and Josephine.

Favourite companion banter:  It depends a lot on my current mood. I like The Iron Bull - Dorian banter, Cassandra - Dorian banter about not liking the life their families set up for them. And Morrigan - Alistair teasing. 

A relationship you loved but went bad: I liked Garrus - Tali relationship but as a friendship. The scene before Normandy returns to Earth feels forced for me. 

A relationship you weren’t sure of but loved: Miranda and m!Commander Shepard. I was hesitant at first, afraid it might come out as a cheap “she fell under his spell” kind of ship, but I really loved it.

A character you wish you COULD romance: Oh man. Where do I start :D Admiral Hackett, Harry Carlyle, master Orgus Din, Cassandra and Miranda as female protagonists. Bao-dur (even a fling will do nicely!). 

A minor character you wish could be a companion: From the top of my head: Commander Bailey (at least some missions on the Citadel, pretty please?) Harry Carlyle, Reyes Vidal.

-Fun-

Shoutout to a random NPC: Admiral Hackett, Harry Carlyle, Aria T’Loak, Lana Beniko. 

A game you love watching playthroughs for and want to play: Don’t have one atm. More often than not I do not watch PT prior to playing the game myself. 

Love watching playthroughs but won’t ever play: Perhaps some games for HW I do not own, like PS4-only games. But I do not watch PTs often. 

Online gaming or solo?: Solo, hands down. I play games to get a breather from other people ;)

Why do you play video games?: I am a big fan of RPG, so I tend to view RPG games in a similar view as stories, so the answer would be “to enjoy the story”. Then ofc to relax and pretend to be someone else in a universe I like -- jedi in Star Wars, mage in Dragon Age, etc. 

Tagging: @ainzaphir, @daisytje, @rpgwarrior4824, @bit-nippy, @cdrkateshepard, @katevidal and anyone else who wants to do this.

Fanfic Questions 6, 15, 21, 30, 39, 41, 45

6. List your OTP fromeach fandom you’ve been involved in.

Mass Effect: Ashley Williams & FemShep

Mass Effect 2: Jack & FemShep

Mass Effect 3: Samantha Traynor & FemShep – definitely my Mass Effect Franchise OTPoverall.

Mass Effect Andromeda: Vetra & FemRyder

Dragon Age Origins: Morrigan & MaleWarden

Dragon Age 2: Isabella & FemHawke

Dragon Age Inquisition: Dead tie between JosephineMontilyet & FemIquisitor and Krem & FemInquisitor (I love Sera, too,but Josephine’s story gave me more feels; and we all know I love Krem and hadhe been an actual romance option in the game I would have never romanced anyoneelse. So I write fanfiction about it instead.)

Legend of Korra: Korra & Asami Sato (I also love Kuvira & Opal)

Harry Potter: Hermione & Ginny

Tomb Raider: Sam & Lara

15. Is there anobscure ship which you love?

I love me some Miranda and Jack from Mass Effect 2, though I’mnot sure their pairing is super obscure.

I ship the hell out of Allura and Pidge from Netflix’sreboot of Voltron, but I don’t foresee myself writing in that fandom any timesoon, if ever.

21. What was thefirst fanfic you ever wrote?

Oh lord. It was a Harry Potter fanfic for sure but I can’trecall the title or the plot aside from that fact that I made a self-insertcharacter and that it was bad. Just… juvenilely bad.  

30. What inspires youto write?

Gosh. There’s so many things but I’ll keep my answers tospecifically what inspires me to write fanfiction:

Contentinconsistencies in the original work that I want to correct with my own headcanons.  (Cracks in the Foundation is prime example of this. When I was playingMass Effect 3 the first time through, I thought the dreams were manifestationsof Shepard’s PTSD, because she’s been through some pretty terrible shit inlife. I thought that that was a nice angle and it would be a good platform totalk about mental health, especially for those in the military. Then thewriting team utterly erased all of it at the end, saying instead that the boy wasthe Catalyst and he was influencing her dreams. I remember being so infuriatedthat I just started writing.)

Characterswho were underutilized in the original work. (Love Lost in Translation is a good example of this. I was so happywith Bioware for giving us Krem but also so infuriated that they gave him to thefranchise somewhat half baked? That sounds terrible, but there was so much theycould have done with Krem but it felt like “Hey – we have a trans character. We’reinclusive. Buy our product.” It felt very “rainbow capitalism” to me. I was lividwhen I found out that he wasn’t more integral to the story and that you couldkill him off. I wanted him to be a main party NPC with more dialogue, not anemployee to a party NPC that you could kill off to further a cismale’s storyarc. And yes, I wanted him to be an available love interest, too.)

My loveof characters. (Anything I write forthe Legend of Korra fandom will probably fall into this. I like the characters andtheir relationships so much that I want to see them in different settings. Or,I like the characters so much that they help me flesh out ideas that aren’t, inmy opinion, good enough on their own for original fiction. In these types, Iusually use fanfiction to try a different writing style than what I’m used to inan effort to help me widen my range as a writer.)

39. What is your greateststrength as a writer?

Dialogue?

41. List and link to5 fanfiction authors who are amazing:

@natsora ​https://archiveofourown.org/users/natsora/pseuds/natsora

and so many more!!!

45. What is your all-timefavourite fanfic?

Lord, I can’t possibly pick one; each fanfic that I love isgood for its own reason and I try not to pit them against each other or comparethem.

[alynshir]

8. what musical artists have you most felt connected to over your lifetime?

Jasmine Thompson, Florence + the Machine, Mandy Harvey, Alanis Morrissette, Halsey, Alessia Cara, Marina and the Diamonds, the original cast of Wicked. all of them

15. five most influential books over your lifetime (in order from earliest in life to latest, a bit about why they’re influential, and if it’s a series it cOUNTS AS ONE).

Harry Potter (J. K. Rowling) - the catalyst to me becoming a voracious and lifelong reader, gave me friends where I didn’t have them, literally was where I learned most of my social cues from?? is that bad?? maybe

The Enchanted Forest Chronicles (Patricia Wrede) - had all of the elements of a fantasy story that I loved: princesses, dragons, swords, magic, fairytales - but instead of a typical damsel story, it gave us a badass princess protagonist who did not want any part in being a damsel at all. introduced me to feminist fantasy! the best kind!!!! inarguably!!!! also so many dragons!!!!!!!!!! I also discovered them at a library. if you ever get them make sure it’s with the old fashioned, harsher cover art and not the cartoony one. just do it. for me

The Book of Deacon (Joseph Lallo) - I found this on Amazon after literally typing in ‘fantasy’ in the books category, in like…middle school. AND HERE WE ARE GUYS. Another awesome example of feminist fantasy, with badass ladies EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK. including when you look at dragons. and the author is a super cool, stand up dude, and really my first experience with an author interacting with his readerbase? which I thought was extremely cool. ALSO!!!!!!! had a massive massive impact on my art skills improving - the first fanart I ever drew and posted was of Ayna, one of his characters (AND STILL MY FAVORITE, WHERE IS HER STANDALONE NOVEL), and ever since then I’ve been drawing like mad. tru story. Please go check his stuff out! if I recall correctly the first book is free on Amazon for kindle/the kindle app on your phone!

The Witcher (Andrzej Sapkowski) - what a fuckin INCREDIBLE world this man has built. honestly has inspired me with my worldbuilding with something like The Witcher as my end goal. His protagonists are truly characters who interact with the world, someone who could have been selected at random to tell stories about - the world is that fleshed out and rich and well done. Also has YENNEFER OF VENGERBERG, who aside from being a badass sorceress, is every bit as developed and complex as Geralt (as she should be), and is not nice and appealing for the audience!!! She’s selfish and dismissive and brusque and can be cruel and manipulative and she IS NOT FUCKIN SORRY!!!!!!!!! I love her!!!! what a gal!

A Court of Thorns and Roses - completely just re-lit my creative bonfire. What characters. W h a t c h a r a c t e r s. Talk about a romance done fuckin WELL! Where I love the love interest just as much if not more than the protagonist! Not to mention, the raw emotions addressed in this were always things I was like, afraid to talk about in stories? Nervous how they’d be received if I discussed them for more than a few seconds? Realistic relationships (if u look past the soulmates stuff come on it’s high fantasy shh) and FRIENDSHIPS!!! ARE SO GOOD!!! the characters fuck me up in summary. So wonderfully done. I’ve reread them 2.5 (on book 2/3) times in three months.

Default MShep/Josephine

Prologue

Location: Serpent Nebula / Andraste System / Thedas / Base of the Frostback Mountains 21 years and 11 months after the end of the Reaper War

Master Dennet was just over seeing the last of his horses when Shepard and Josephine arrived at the stables.

“Master Dennet.” The marine greeted the Fereldan man as they drew level. “These the last of your charges?”

“They are, Your Worship. Lady Montilyet, your carriage is waiting for you. I didn’t want to leave until I was sure that you were away first.”

“Yeah, sorry about that.” Shepard apologised, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

“Not blaming you, Your Worship. With what you’ve been through, I figure you’ve got the right to be a little slow.”

“Hey, where are you going? Get back here!” one of Dennet’s hands suddenly called out, drawing Shepard’s attention away from the horse master. Stepping to the side, the vanguard saw his Brecilian Sure-Foot mount, Josmaël, striding towards him with the incensed stable hand chasing after him.

“Hey, bud,” Shepard softly greeted the Hart when the beast came to a stop in front of him. Reaching his remaining hand up, he stroked the majestic animal’s head. “I’m afraid that you won’t fit in where I’m headed. You’re better off sticking with Master Dennet.” Reaching to one of the Hart’s ears, he began to scratch the skin under it. Within moments, Josmaël had closed his eyes and had tilted his head to further the point of contact.

Man and beast stayed that way for a little while until Shepard drew back, catching the Hart’s lead rope as he moved and led him over to the hand.

“He should behave himself now.” Shepard told the stable hand as he handed off Josmaël’s lead rope. The teenager stared at the Spectre, wide eyed. “I may have spoiled him a bit. Just give him a carrot or two when he starts to play up, that should make him amenable.”

“T-thank you, Your Worship,” The young lad stammered a little as he gripped the rope, and Shepard saw that he was fighting to stop himself from dropping his gaze to the former Inquisitor’s missing forearm. “And I will.”

Shepard turned back to Dennet as the Hart was led away, offering the older man his hand. “I can’t thank you enough for supporting the Inquisition, Master Dennet.”

Dennet took the offered hand and shook it. “I was proud to help, Your Worship. And may I say something? You might not have been born here, but with what you did for us, I dare say I can speak for us all when I say you’re one of us now.”

Shepard could only nod, the lump that had suddenly formed in his throat keeping him from talking.

Josephine seemed to know what he was planning to say next and she spoke his line for him, “Safe travels back to your farm, Master Dennet.”

“The same to you, Lady Montilyet,” Dennet returned graciously before taking his leave of the pair.

“Shall we, Milady?” Shepard gestured to the coach once his ability to speak had returned.

Josephine nodded her head and took his arm as they walked towards their ride. Their gear had been brought down from Skyhold much earlier in the day, so all the pair had to do was board and they would be on their way.

As they neared, the coach hand opened the door and the Spectre helped Josephine into the carriage before turning to address the coach driver. “There’s a small forest with a clearing in the middle a couple of kilometres south of here,” Shepard told the man - he’d seen the spot countless times during his travels to and from Skyhold and had advised his XO, Miranda Lawson, to send the shuttle there for extraction. “Take us there first.”

Though the coachman looked perplexed at the order, as it took them away from their intended route to Jader, the man acknowledged the instruction with a nod of his head. “At your order, Your Worship.”

Nodding his own head, Shepard climbed in - slightly struggling without a second hand to grab onto things with - to join Josephine. After the door was closed and the coach hand had taken his place by the driver, they lurched briefly as the horses moved off.

<::::::::{}==[] ~ o ~ O ~ o ~ []=={}::::::::>

The pair spoke of old and familiar topics during the first part of the journey to try and keep their minds off of what was about to happen for just a little while longer. But Shepard didn’t fail to notice that despite their mutual distraction attempts, the closer they got to their destination the more Josephine’s lower lip began to tremble.

When the first tear rolled down the Antivan’s cheek the marine put his arm around her shoulders and drew her close to him. She went without a struggle, burying her face into the crook of his neck.

The rest of the journey was spent in silence.

<::::::::{}==[] ~ o ~ O ~ o ~ []=={}::::::::>

When they arrived, Shepard stepped out of the carriage first, his eyes scanning his environs to see if there was anything amiss. Seeing no signs of danger or - more importantly - cloaking distortions, the Spectre sighed. Miranda had given him a general ETA for the shuttle’s arrival, but the marine knew that that was bound to change if EDI detected any movement in the area that wasn’t the Normandy’s CO.

And the last of Dennet’s plant of horses definitely counted as movement.

Part of him had been hoping and praying that the horse master would be well past the area by the time he and Josephine got there.

While having to say goodbye immediately would have been hard, akin to ripping off a band-aid, it would be over and done quickly and they could be on their respective ways. But waiting? It was going to be nine shades of hell to get through. Josephine was already in an emotional state and that was only going to get worse with time to fret. And as she became more distressed, Shepard knew that he wouldn’t be far behind her.

“Any sign?” Josephine asked as she stepped out of the coach once he had let her know that the coast was clear.

Shepard shook his head as he turned back to face her. “EDI would have alerted Miranda to Master Dennet’s movements through the AO. So no shuttle.”

“And how long before she deems it safe enough?”

“An hour or so, most likely. Miranda knows my stance on over exposing Thedas, so she’ll only send the Kodiak once she’s absolutely certain that things are quiet down here.”

“We wait?” Josephine asked as she looped her arms around his remaining one.

“We wait.” He confirmed.

<::::::::{}==[] ~ o ~ O ~ o ~ []=={}::::::::>

With time to kill, Shepard’s mind had begun to wander to what Thedas was about to face.

The marine didn’t know if Solas was expecting this move from him, but he had no choice. He would need to be at a hundred percent if he had any chance of turning the Elvhen Rebel away from his destructive path - hopefully without resorting to violence, but he would need to be prepared if the hedge mage left him no choice - and protect Thedas from the untold horrors that could rip its lands apart.

But leaving to get the necessary treatments to fix and replace his missing forearm as well as the various implants and eezo nodules throughout the affected area meant that he would have to say goodbye to the woman that was currently clinging to him like a second skin: Lady Josephine Montilyet; eldest child of the noble Montilyet family from Antiva. Former Ambassador and chief Diplomat for the Inquisition, she was an eminent figure in diplomacy, forging relations with grace, charm and careful favors. She had worked for years as chief ambassador from Antiva to Orlais prior to the Inquisition’s rebirth. But when the unrest in Thedas had hit boiling point she had been asked to join the Inquisition, where she had tirelessly played her part in restoring the ancient organization to its former glory.

And she was also the love of his life.

Funny how a man has to go to a completely unknown planet to find the one for him. The Lord truly does work in mysterious ways, the vanguard couldn’t help but think with a slight smile.

But he couldn’t muster any more happiness then that, not with Josephine’s face once again nestled in the crook of his neck. He could feel her tears as they trickled down his skin, feel her petite form tremble against his every time she heard what she thought was the Kodiak’s engines, heralding the shuttle’s arrival.

She had been this way ever since he had announced his intention to return to his world once the Inquisition’s disbandment was complete.

As her family’s heir apparent, he knew that she had an obligation to her family and he also knew that she did not take her responsibilities lightly. But he was the man that she loved and he’d just gone through something terrible and she’d made it plain that she wanted to be there for him and support him throughout his recovery.

But he, knowing that what he was about to undergo would not be pretty, hadn’t wanted her to see him that way. It was only after promising - truly, making him repeat his vow many, many times promising - that he would return, that he had managed to convince her that her family needed her more then he did at that moment that she’d accepted it.

But she had made it quite clear to him that she would still hate seeing him go.

And damn if she wasn’t true to her word, the marine thought as he did his best to comfort her.

Suddenly his radio crackled to life, and Shepard tilted his head to mask the movement of his remaining hand to cover his ear so he could hear the communiqué.

“Shepard-Commander, this is Ghost. Are you receiving this transmission?”

“I copy, Ghost. Go ahead,” Shepard replied in a soft voice so that only Josephine could hear his side of the exchange.

“The Kodiak has landed. I am en-route to your position.”

“Cloaked?”

“Affirmative,” the geth Hunter responded.

“Where are you coming from?”

“I am currently north-east of your beacon.”

“There’s a clump of three trees, on the edge of the forest, due south and about two hundred meters away from where I’m standing. Stay there, I’ll come to you,” Shepard told the synthetic.

“Understood, Shepard-Commander. I will wait for you at the designated area.”

As Shepard lowered his arm, Josephine drew back a little.

“This is really it?” she asked, her voice wavering.

“It is,” he confirmed.

Josephine’s face crumpled, and she buried herself against him again.

Hating to see her this way, the Spectre began to stroke her ebony hair, mindful of not mussing up her hairdo, as he softly started to sing to her.

~We read the wind and the sky When the sun is high We sail the length of the sea On the ocean breeze At night we name every star We know where we are We know who we are, who we are~

He had sung this song countless times whilst he’d been here, staring up at the night sky, hoping and praying that the Normandy would find him.

But now, his perspective had changed and as he began to sing the next verse, he pulled back a little ways so that he could make eye contact with her in order to stress the message he was trying to get across.

~Aue, aue, We set a course to find A brand new island everywhere we row Aue, aue, We keep our island in our mind And when it’s time to find home We know the way~

You’re my island now, my home, and I’ll be back by your side just as soon as I’m able.

The song and his silent vow seemed to settle her a little, but he knew it wouldn’t take long before she was openly weeping again.

Also knowing that it wouldn’t take Ghost long to reach them and that it was time for them to go their separate ways, Shepard raised his hand to her chin and tipped her head up as he lowered his. Their lips met, and as the marine focused on pouring every ounce of emotion he possessed into the kiss to reassure Josephine, her hands were moving also, one gripping the front of his armor while the other went to the back of his skull, her fingers threading through his short sable locks as she returned his emotion and passion ten-fold.

Eventually, however, the need to breathe forced the couple to part.

Shepard rested his forehead against hers and they remained wrapped in each other for a time before he, reluctantly, stepped away from her.

“Here.” With a slight struggle, the Spectre removed his long coat and placed it over Josephine’s shoulders. “Not exactly matching fashion, I know. But you’ll need it more than I do.”

The act brought on a fresh wave of tears and she wrapped herself around him again.

“I will be back, Ke aloha, you have my word,” Shepard vowed to her, his voice slightly gruff as he fought not to cry himself.

“I know you will. It’s just…” she trailed off.

“I know,” he murmured as he gently ran his hand up and down her back.

And he did.

Saying goodbye to Cassandra, Varric, Dorian, Bull and all of the others had been hard enough. Saying goodbye to Josephine - even temporarily - was a hundred times worse.

To try and make things light again, Shepard suddenly spoke up. “Y'know, I know you said I can be irresistible, but this has got to be a new record or something. I mean, you’ve hardly taken your hands off of me since we got here.”

The comment, out of place as it was, got the desired effect and Josephine began to smile as she lightly smacked his chest plate in response. Shepard could still see the lingering sadness in her eyes, but she seemed to understand what he was trying to do and was grateful for it if the giggle she let out was anything to go by.

He took a step back and bowed deeply before her, offering his remaining arm to her - the action a replica of his actions at the Winter Palace three years prior, “Your carriage awaits, Lady Josephine.”

She took his hand. “Thank you, Captain Shepard,” came her gracious response as he straightened up and chauffeured her to the carriage.

As he helped Josephine get back into the coach, Shepard’s eyes drank in the sight of the woman he loved, doing his absolute best to commit every last detail of her appearance to memory for the long months of separation that lay ahead. She was dressed as someone who was used to finery and yet her outfit was not ostentatious or overstated. Her bodice was a deep royal purple that was surrounded by draped and pleated satin. Often in Skyhold, he had been enthralled when the yellow fabric would catch the light from the candle on her ever present clipboard, making it shine like gold and turning molten whenever she moved. More than once she had caught him staring and had blushed in response at the attention.

Once she was in and seated, he went to step back, but Josephine grabbed his hand to stop him.

“Te amo. Voy a extrañarte tanto.” Josephine murmured to him in her native tongue as a few tears rolled down her cheek.

“Eres el amor de mi vida, querido. Yo regresare. Te prometo,” he responded without hesitation as he reached out to wipe away her tears with his thumb before cupping her cheek.

She smiled warmly at him before she closed her eyes and leaned into the caress.

“Beg your pardon, Your Worship,” the driver hesitantly spoke up, breaking the couple’s moment. “But we need to get going if Lady Montilyet is to catch her boat back to Antiva.”

Josephine just let out a sigh in lieu of words.

“Don’t think of it as goodbye, just ‘see you around,’” Shepard offered as he lowered his hand.

“I know. I just can’t help but worry that the Citadel Council will-”

“I’m not going to turn my back on Thedas,” the Spectre cut her off, his tone hard. Realising that his anger was starting to get the best of him - and that it was flaring because of Josephine’s distress at their impending separation - he stopped and took a few calming breaths before he continued. “I won’t. I can’t. Not now. And anyone who knows a thing about me knows I don’t make those types of vows lightly. And as for the Council,” Shepard shrugged, “well, them being displeased with the decisions I make isn’t exactly anything new. Nor is my reaction and response to them trying to shut me down. I’ll be back. Rain, hail or shine.” At her look of disapproval, however, he quickly added, “But the Council aren’t stupid. They know that I know Thedas’ culture and am a respected individual within these lands. There’s no better person suited to an ambassadorship to bridge relations between them and a nearby planet that, until now, they had no idea was even there. Thedas may not be space-fairing yet, but the planet is still unique and may have mining resources that are valuable to the Council.”

Though he could see she was still worried, and she gave a smile at the later part of his speech, she seemed to choose to let it go so that their departure was on a more positive note and simply offered, “Take care.”

“I will. And I’ll be back before you even know that I’m missing.”

Josephine gave him a half smile. “If only that were true.”

With a final nod of his head and a brief peck to Josephine’s lips, Shepard shut the coach door before stepping back to where his bags were.

“Safe journey,” the marine offered to the driver.

“The same to you, Your Worship,” came the man’s reply as he flicked the reins to get the horse team moving. The carriage circled around him, allowing him to blow a final kiss to Josephine, before returning to the road and setting off for Jader.

It wasn’t long before Shepard could hardly see the coach in the distance. He continued to stand there, however, long after the carriage had vanished from sight, just watching the road and softly singing to himself.

~Down the way where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountain top I took a trip on a navy spaceship And when I reached Thedosa I made a stop

But I’m sad to say I’m on my way Won’t be back for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave my lady-love in Antiva town

Sounds of laughter everywhere And the dancing girls sway to and fro I must declare my heart is there Though I’ve been from Sol to Galactic Core

But I’m sad to say I’m on my way Won’t be back for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave my lady-love in Antiva town

Sad to say I’m on my way Won’t be back for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave my lady-love in Antiva town~

After what felt like twenty minutes or so his radio sprang to life once again. “Shepard-Commander-”

“I know, Ghost,” Shepard cut the synthetic off. “Just… give me a minute.”

After a few more minutes, Shepard snapped out of his funk and picked up his bag, hoisting it onto his good shoulder before turning and striding to where the Hunter was waiting.

“Are you alright, Shepard-Commander?” Ghost asked the human as Shepard came to a stop beside it.

Even though the geth was cloaked, Shepard could still just make out through the distortions that the flaps around the Hunter’s optic were posed to make it look curious about what it had just observed.

“Not really, Ghost,” the Spectre admitted as he tried to fight off some of his melancholy. “But that’s for me to deal with. Do a lap around the perimeter, check that there’s no one close.”

“Understood, Shepard-Commander. Executing command.”

With barely perceptible foot falls, the geth left to attend to its task.

Following Ghost’s example, Shepard set off towards the clearing.

<::::::::{}==[] ~ o ~ O ~ o ~ []=={}::::::::>

Ten minutes later, Shepard entered the clearing where the shuttle was parked.

After putting his luggage down, the Spectre had practically fallen into one of the shuttle’s seats, grateful to be out of the hot sun as his heavy plate was practically cooking him alive.

“You okay, Captain?” Hawthorne asked, watching Shepard as he tried to get comfortable, the scale mail the marine was wearing making that near impossible as it dug into his skin despite the cotton undershirt he was wearing. But while the sight of seeing Shepard in such old-fashion armour should have kept Hawthorne’s attention, the shuttle co-pilot’s gaze kept falling to the Spectre’s missing forearm.

Shepard noticed his eyes roving and sighed. “I’m fine, Lieutenant. These kinds of injuries might not happen that often nowadays, but they still do happen. Wounds of war and all that.”

“That’s not what I…” Hawthorne started to say but then trailed off.

“Ghost reported that you… ah… were with someone when he got a visual lock on you…” Cortez took up the line of questioning.

Shepard raised an eyebrow at the bold question. “Prying, Lieutenant?”

“Uh…” the shuttle pilot looked down sheepishly at his CO’s penetrating stare.

“I’m fine, Cortez. And this isn’t - wasn’t - goodbye,” Shepard clarified, dropping his steely facade. “Just 'see you later.’”

“You’re coming back? After what’s happened?” Cortez asked, his head jerking back up at the revelation, his surprise at his CO’s decision evident in the look on his face and in his tone of voice, though he kept his eyes squarely on Shepard’s face and not the tied up scale mail. Hawthorne also showed a similar look of shock.

“I don’t have much choice.”

Cortez tilted his head in a 'please explain’ gesture when Shepard didn’t continue.

Shepard sighed, not really in the mood for conversation as his mind was still preoccupied by Josephine, but he spoke anyway. “There are events that have been put into motion here that will cause untold death and suffering if I don’t at least try to guide the one responsible away from his chosen path.”

“Another seemingly impossible task?”

Shepard gave a humourless smile. “It must be a curse.”

To stop any further questions, Shepard raised his remaining hand to his ear. “Ghost?”

“Yes, Shepard-Commander?”

“What’s your report?”

“The Area of Operation is clear of any organics that would be startled or alarmed by the Kodiak’s departure.”

“Good. Egress back to the shuttle. We’ll leave as soon as you’re back on board.”

“Understood, Shepard-Commander. Executing order.”

Shepard sighed tiredly as he let his head fall back against the shuttle wall.

I can only imagine the tongue lashing that Chakwas has in store for me once she sees me. Of all the insane and idiotic things I’ve ever done, this has to be the worst. And this is only the start of something that could be ten-fold worse then what I’ve just been through.

“I am back, Cortez-Lieutenant,” Ghost reported a few minutes later as it’s Tactical Cloak deactivated, revealing the navy-coloured geth sitting in the seat to Shepard’s left.

“Alright, closing the hatch. Next stop; Normandy,”

As he felt the Kodiak leave the ground, Shepard couldn’t help but let his mind wander to all that he’d been through over the last four and three quarter years.

Just another routine mission that turned into something else entirely.

Translations: “I love you. I am going to miss you so much.” “You’re the love of my life, beloved. I will return. I promise”

Songs Used: “We Know The Way” from Disney’s Moana © Disney “Jamaica Farwell” by Harry Belafonte - a few changes made to make it world/galaxy appropriate

Authors Notes: So here I go with another AU novelisation.

Unlike Invictus however, this Shepard is default faced.

For those curious, his name is Jonas-Jeremiah, but he goes by Jon or JJ. He’s Earthborn/War Hero/Soldier-turned-Vanguard. He’s a mostly Paragon Paragade who went the Paragon route with the major decision in the games. He romanced Ash in ME and stayed faithful to her in 2, but broke up with her after the Coup because of her lack of trust in his loyalties and he didn’t romance anyone in 3

As for the Dragon Age side of things; my Warden was Bhartol Aeducan who romanced Morrigan and disappeared with his mysteriously magical lover at the end of Witch Hunt. My Hawke was named Daemon, a - mostly - diplomatic mage who supported his ilk and friendship romanced Fenris despite their differences.

If anyone wants to read both Worldstates to know my various decisions in both franchises, just drop me a line.

As for they story itself, Starborn is Part One of the Starborn saga that will encase DAI, the interim time between the games and - hopefully - DA4.

[far-butter]

↑↑↑ That.

May I add that Lysander stated multiple times in mcl that he hated the farm life? So what. He does alone a job he hates in the farm where his parents died? Given his personnality he probably do that purely by loyalty so the farm isn’t left/sell/derelicted. Poor Lys is probably ravaged. And Candy thought it was somehow a good idea to go in university at this point (whatever the player want her to have university studies or not, but I don’t believe in the rp part of the game for a long time now. Though I take it as a little spit on my face like “c’mon everything outside university is not a job or a life path”). I mean???????? It was hinted that his father was very ill and had short time left anyway but why his mother? Why we can’t help him to bear all of that? Why my poor sweet Lysander did have to suffer? Why did he have to suffer THAT much? I don’t understand how it is suppose to thrill us to play the new game. Not an excitement thrill at least. More like "brrr". Thanks for the compassion though. Personnaly I’m with every Candy. I suggest that we eat chocolate and cry together while deny this as a reality and considere it as a AU. Especially you Kentin’s team! All of those paths the guys took seems wrong but Kentin’s seems like a real kill of the character. I’ld largely approve the puppies future though. It’s canon for me now. Anyway. Lots of peoples already said everything and made interesting points. At least the “Best Boy” war is ended I suppose? I don’t know I hear a distant collective sobbing from everyone here. I’m happy with Priya tho...as long as I considere Candy as a whole new protag in the new mcl...or the story as something that somehow happened before the highschool story, with a lot of imagination.

(And seriously, why all the LI I engaged with the OCs I roleplayed very seriously with a 40 page biography for each one always ALWAYS end like this? I mean look: Dragon Age: -King Alistair with Warden Surana. Nothing else to say. This one put me down for two weeks. -Jowan is not a LI nor he is recruitable (fuck you Bioware) -Morrigan is the most obvious bi character ever but woops! Male Wardens only despite their lack of collusion (gay baiting anyone?) -Leliana is bi but somehow dialog/romance lines are no the same at all depending on the gender of the warden. "To bi or not to bi" mode. -Same with Zevran. -Fuck your DAO LIs anyway, you won’t ever see your hero again, and their LI probably doesn’t neither. -Anders is a LI! Hurray! That’s why he is condemn to madness and death. Ah! And you can murder him by litteraly backstabing him. Enjoy your love scene. -Other LIs seems quite happy. Good. Then you have the choice to either kill your former lover from DAO or your hero from DA2. -Solas is busy destroying the universe and threaten to kill you. And your friends. And your family. And your dog. But hey! You have kisses! Isn't it cute? -Dorian return to his country. Alone. To inherit the job his father was assassinated for. -Cassandra = ”Tali Syndrome”

Mass Effect:

-Kaidan: I love you so much. I hate you so much, you traitor. Oh nice to see you! Traitor, Cerberus, traitor! Sorry for my behavior, I love you. What, you mean you work for Cerberus you traitor? Did I said I love you? -Thane: You have awaken me and my soul. I love you. I considere future with you. That’s why I’ll legit impale myself thorough the sword of the most incompetent assassin ever while you watch and eat chips. -Jacob: I like when you act like a sexual predator. Well I met that girl...I had an interest onher the whole time. Now she's pregnant lol! Wait what? Friends? I hate you. -Garrus: Love is only availiable in ME3. Let’s have awkward sex talk even if it’s the most OOC thing for you. By the sexual predator line too. Then we’ll have black screen because Miranda’s boobs ate the whole romance scenes budget. That’s why she’ll die if you miss a single meeting with her in the next game btw. -Tali: I’m trying so hard not to be gay with you. So much flirt. So painful the all sudden friendzone. -Jack: Hinted to be bi. Intended to be bi. End up as another sexual fantasy of Male Shep who can totally ignore my whole story about rape and engage brutal sex with me. So hot. -Liara: A romance? In previous game? What does this mean? Who are you? Let’s do few lines changes for my romance and being intrusive in my CO privacy even if we’re not even friends. Everyone should be happy like that! -James: Sexual predator skills mastered level x11000. Molester and abuser of squadmate skills mastered level x5000. -Kelly: Some kind of equality! Yay! Now you have to keep her from being killed in awful ways two times and to make the romance survive. But you can’t take her with you, on the ship, where she belongs. If you want make out sessions, romance the other girl who made you reports. See, see, Bioware is so gay friendly! Enjoy! -Ashley: BroShep only because lesbian non-alien romance was so shocking in the first game, that’s why Kaidan is availiable for MShep in the third game! See, gay friendly? Who plays as a lesbian Shepard anyway? Also ME3 Ash can now fit MShep fantasies as she was called ugly before! Who find the evolving character of an insecure soldier, loving sister, -who’d totally headbutt a krogan while discussing the new Rimbaud fanclub she made- interesting anyway? Men keep her for her butt and women kill her to save Kaidan and everyone can say she’s racist everytime they say her name. See? Everyone is happy. That’s why there’s no huge diffence between friendship and romance now. -Javik: Fuck you again Bioware. After mistreating Femshep like this you owed us this one. -Nyreen: My virtual headcanon space girlfriend lasted the time of one dlc with no romance option. But I have Aria if I side with her against Nyreen and kill civilians that’s...okay. If she doesn’t kill Shepard or something.

The Witcher:

Hey, we know that Yenn is Geralt’s true love...but see! Triss is so cute! We gave you the option to be a total dick with her feelings again! Isn’t it wonderful?

Why do I even bother to put faith in videogames canon LIs and their treatment? I’ll just sit with Cassandra and write sad fanfics about broken love. If my feelings dare to stop hurting for a moment so I can get out of my depression-magical-blanket and write.)

Good to see you!, where do I even start. I love this game, since 2014 I saw it and I started playing, I had fun and had good moments in the story with my boy every chapter. I will not make pure insults, much less to Chinomiko in this post, I clarify, because it would not show or change anything. We all have the right to comment on the matter, including Chinomiko as she commented on her Tumblr a few days ago. So I’m going to leave my opinion here too.

 The truth is that right now I am in of exams, but honestly seeing everything that happened these days I could not let it go that way, that’s why I apologize that the guys are drawn weird and in a little of my free time, and the careers that I did chose to each one is not that I think they are the best for them, they just seemed quite adequate to the characters.

 Create a game of any kind, such as an otome, it costs a lot of time, money, you need a good fandom so that it can be maintained, in short it is not easy. But I’m not at all in agreement that something is modified just for money, then the plot of the game doesn’t matter? It only matters if it gives more money ?.

 Castiel entered because is the most popular in all servers apparently, or at least in the majority, then what is left to the other teams? feel bad because if your boy had been the most popular he would had been in the new CDM? In itself I’m not against a new roster of characters the truth, it does not seem bad at all, but if they change so much the routes I dont know if it can be called in the same way as the previous game, well yes, there are sagas as Persona ��and they change the character roster always. But they change it completely, they dont leave anyone of the previous one, and if they appear this characters are very little time in it, like NPC’s. and if one more boy entered the game on the 5 * route that we still do not know who it is, it would be worse for the 3 routes that were left abandoned because they did not leave enough money for the company. And that of reusing the name of the game to create a new one, sincerely it would seem to take advantage of the fame of MCL to have won by itself a good fanbase just because. Without having the routes that everyone was used to and their players.

 Yesterday I posted a question in groups, because I was doing this drawing, I asked if it would be good to see Kentin studying veterinary medicine, and everyone just seem happy with it, there were even girls who were not from his team and they said that they would still think about his route if he was studying veterinary, of course yes, who would not? He’s  so gentle and cute. That was supposed to have happened. At least it was what most of players were waiting for, to go back with their guys to college. To tell the truth I dont see anything boring or “leave little money” to the possibility of a plot  for example with:

 + Castiel, be part of his band and give tours while studying together.

+ Nathaniel, studying psychology, or law, and being an undercover police officer who may later become a detective. Could help the Su with their cases.

+ Lysander, composing songs and singing, maybe Su helps him

+ Armin, studying computer engineering maybe to then program and make own games that he loves so much! Your Su might be the first to test his games! And have fun with him!

+ Kentin veterinarian with the little animals he have to take care of and Su helping him.

 Besides that, the new routes that there are, could still be in the game, and be playable, but through spin-off, why not?

I dont know how many people could be interested in the teacher, the bar boy or Priya and Castiel. But I dont know if these new characters can really attract as much attention as to give more money to the company than the guys. Chinomiko talks about the “silent” players and statistics that we dont know, but seriously those characteristics are in favor of the new characters? That most of us dont even know yet? In all the groups that I am from MCL, including youtube videos, I see only people who are sad about the decision or angry. The truth is that if they exist and left much money these “silent players” would be good for them to speak for once. Do they really exist? Where? I know there are people who did not take the changes, neither sad nor bad, but from what I have seen, they are very few. In addition to that already there are few players who have reached chapter 40.

 I can understand the fact that the guys are not in the new game, although it was not what I wanted. But it was not just to take the guys out of the picture. She also got into their lives and gave them an unfortunate future. Let’s see:

+ Castiel broke the relationship with Sucrette, and now they have to start the relationship from 0%? It is normal perhaps for those who are not his route and now want to conquer it, but and the poor girls who are his route and were with him for 40 chapters now are nothing ??? What is that???.

+ Nathaniel to be a star student, intelligent, good person now is a boy who does not care about his studies and only goes to parties ???. We, his team where supporters of him  all the time, especially after saving him from his father, he is supposed to have a free and happy life, not a disaster.

 + Lysander had to return to the farm because his parents died? MY GOD I am not even his route and this destroyed me inside, why? WHAT NEED OF DOING THIS? From that cruelty to the girls of his team who were supporting him for 40 episodes!

+ Armin left the studies and is a hacker, to see, it is not “bad” but it could have gone better.

+ Kentin went to the army even though the parents did not agree? I doubt it was the best for him.

 In all of these cases, they could have said that the guys just moved out of school or country or whatever, but they’re fine. And making their lives quietly.

 Well in itself that was what hurt me most, all those cases does not seem more than a Bad Ending for the boys, while what could have been a beautiful reality, is now only a fantasy that we will have in our heads the players of the cute that could have been MCL in college with the guys, even moving as in Henry’s secret! That look pretty!

 As I said above anyway I have nothing against the new routes but … Especially Priya, you’ll have noticed that it is the only new one that I gave color, haha.

 I leave the post in Spanish and English so that you can understand me all or at least the majority who read this. Although I know that Chinomiko in her case understands Spanish and English equally, so, in the remote case that you read this, I know you can understand it even if you are only in one language or another.

Well, I think that’s all. Bye! Feel free to share this image and publish wherever you want. In fact, I did not sign it because I think that more than a drawing of mine this is part of all, part of many, this belongs to us. And for something I did it, to draw in physical something that we have in our heads, and unfortunately it does not exist, and most likely it will never exist (the guys in the uni).

[ice-daddy-vitya]

Okay. So I’m gonna have to just answer with one character from Mass Effect (original trilogy since I just purchased Andromeda but haven’t played it yet) and Dragon Age (Trilogy)

I’m not gonna specify a character from each game for each answer. I’ll just choose one overall for the whole trilogy with ME and DA.

The first character I first fell in love with: 

Mass Effect: Liara T’Soni

Dragon Age: Morrigan (I was so upset that she wasn’t one of the gay romance options 😩)

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: 

Mass Effect: Tali’Zorah

Dragon Age: Cassandra

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: 

Mass Effect: FUCKING. ASHLEY. AND FUCKING. MIRANDA

Dragon Age: Leliana

The character I love that everyone else hates:

Mass Effect: Kaiden (everyone calls him boring ;; )

Dragon Age: Sera (the hate for her is unreal)  

The character I used to love but don’t any longer:

Mass Effect: I don’t think there are any tbh

Dragon Age: Vivienne - but only because I liked her when I first met her in game, but after getting to know her character and doing her missions did I end up not being able to stand her.

The character I would totally smooch: 

Mass Effect: ... is it ok to say every companion except Ashley?

Dragon Age: Same as ME but just not Leliana???

The character I’d want to be like: 

Mass Effect: I admire Tali’s strength and wisdom, and I adore Garrus’ intellect and sass. There’s no one character I’d want to be like, but there are traits from many that I absolutely love.

Dragon Age: VARRIC TETHRAS HANDS DOWN LMAO. I aspire to be that level of petty.

The character I’d slap: 

Mass Effect: Everyone on the council in ME:1, Miranda in ME:2, and I can’t really think of anyone in 3.

Dragon Age: Fenris, for being a lil emo bitch (BUT I LOVE HIM)

A pairing that I love:

Mass Effect: GARRUS AND TALI. ITS CUTE.

Dragon Age: Bull and Dorian. There is no other couple in this entire game that is as cute as they are. Their banter as a couple when you put them in your party is just 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

A pairing that I despise: 

Mass Effect: I’m actually not the biggest fan of Tali x Shepard, but given my disdain for Ashley... Ashley x Shepard. Get that garbage out of my house.

Dragon Age: Leliana x Warden, Blackwall x Inquisitor. I don’t really hate the latter, but his romance isn’t really all that interesting to begin with.

I have so many passionate things to say about Bioware games though. This was such an unfair ask @anxious-katsudon how dare you do this to me bitch I know this was you lmao

Bioware. . .

I KNOW WHO SENT THIS DAMNIT.

Okay gimme a minute to gather myself and reblog this with a thorough answer.

(Ask mun about other fandoms for MUNday!)
