LUCILLA HAS ME FEELING SOME TYPE OF WAY OH MY GOD I LOVE WOMEN

[veridium]

oc interview meme

I was tagged by the lovely @trvelyans to write a hypothetical interview of one of my OC’s! So, I did everybody’s favorite ice-haired toasted cinnamon roll, Theia!

1. What is your name?

“I have a lot of names nowadays, I suppose. Inquisitor, Herald of Andraste, Your Worship. Maker, someone called me “Sarah” the other day, and I didn’t correct them. I suppose that says something about how jaded I’ve become with all my misnomers.“

2. What is your real name?

“What, not Goddess? Well, if you were to ask my Father, it would be Theia Sofia Trevelyan. I was given the prettiest name out of all three children, I should add.“ 

3. Do you know why you were called that?

“The name “Theia” means “holy,” an adjective my family is particularly fond of, as I’m sure their reputation entails. My middle name “Sofia” means wisdom, so quite literally, my parents wished to imbue me with “holy wisdom.” Maker’s breath, isn’t that some sick joke now?“

4. Are you single or taken?

“My occupation would insist single, the gossip would say taken many times and by many people. But, the truth? Hopelessly taken by one remarkable woman. Please tell her I said that, so she’s softened up when I tell her I ate the last piece of peanut brittle.“

5. Have any abilities or powers?

“Are you joking? Who doesn’t know the answer to that question after all I’ve been through. You cannot hide the fact that your body is a walking lightning rod when it’s gotten you in and out of the Fade twice, closed a Breach in the sky, and survived weaponized time magic.

But, for the sake of not sounding egotistical, yes, I do. I am a Mage who focuses on ice and storm abilities. I also have this most inconvenient mark on my hand that is embedded elven magic. Try bringing that up casually at parties.“

6. Stop being a Mary Sue.

“It isn’t “being” anything if you’re honestly that good.“

7. What’s your eye color?

“Purple. Yes, purple. It’s a maternal trait that just happened to match with my powers. People think I’m so fashionable but I really could not help it.”

8. How about your hair color?

“Ice white, pale blonde? I switch between the two. Regardless of its category, it’s rather hard not to point out in a crowd. Another one of my family’s most generous gifts.“

9. Have you any family members?

“For better or worse, yes. My parents, though my Mother, Stefania Lisoleth Trevelyan -- Maker, she sounds as pompous as she was in real life -- has since passed. My Father, Tristian Trevelyan, still resides in the Free Marches. There’s my insufferable brother who is his namesake. My sister, Lucilla Victoire, is older and married to some nobleman I haven’t cared enough to get to know. You can spot us rather quickly, we’re the group of emotionally suppressed faces with icey hair.“

10. Oh? What about pets?

“I have a small cat whom I rescued from Crestwood. She is young and tabby in color, and I just adore her! I wish I was here more to actually bond with her. She wanders Skyhold rather freely, much to everyone’s chagrin. Her name is Obsidian, after the kinds of metals we found in Crestwood. I call her “Sid” for short.“

11. That’s cool I guess, now tell me about something you don’t like.

“If Ambassador Montilyet were to hear someone actually asked me to list out my dislikes, she’d be furious. I am rather obnoxious with my opinions. I dislike pretentiousness, disloyalty, and shallowness. So, perhaps I should say the vast majority of the Orlesian Empire.“

12. Do you have any hobbies/activities you like doing?  

“Reading, practicing my magic, and provoking Josephine’s temper. I do not have the time for much else, these days.”

13. Ever hurt anyone before?

“Oh, plenty, yes. Pick a more specific category.”

14. Ever… killed anyone before?

“Are you joking, again? I swear you must be. If you must know, you can read whatever filthy periodical is making rounds in the towns and villages of Orlais.”

15. What kind of animal are you?

“This would be a fantastic question for Morrigan, I’d imagine. But as for me, I don’t shapeshift or liken myself to animals. Although, people suggest I look rather animalistic when I am in the heat of combat.”

16. Name your worst habits.

“I am very self-conscious and insecure at times. I take things personally, and I feel culpable when there is injustice. Though, I do not necessarily see that as a flaw all of the time. Plus, in this role I’m in, I feel it to be most fitting.”

17. Do you look up to anyone at all?

“Of course I do! After all, both the Hero of Fereldan and the Champion of Kirkwall are Mages, and women, for that matter. I would be foolish not to have admiration for them, and feel humbled in my own shoes. I also have quite a bit of respect for Cassandra and Leliana. They have stewarded this movement with courage and resolve in spades. I consider myself honored to be able to work with them and be a leader amongst their ranks.”

18. Gay, straight, or bisexual?

*A whole minute of feisty, jubilant laughter* 

19. Do you go to school?

“I used to, if you’d call a Circle that. Most would say “formal blood-bath with books,” but, there you go.”

20. Do you ever want to marry and have kids one day?

“I didn’t used to, but then I met someone who sold me on such dreams. While I do not really allow myself to aspire to such domestic joys, I do find that they have grown on me as ideals. However, Josephine and I are two women who do not know how to keep ourselves out of work or trouble. But, if I were honest, I’d marry her tomorrow if given the chance.”

21. Do you have any fanboys/fangirls?

I try my best to be a combination of intimidating and austere, but, I do have a following. Mostly of children, actually, especially the children of the Mages here. They scarcely have examples of Mages who are not demonized or erased from history, so, when they see us walking the halls or grounds, it’s like storybook characters come to life for them. I take pleasure in providing them with someone to look up to, even when I feel that I fail them sometimes. 

As for the adults, I would not wish to condescend and call them my fans, since they are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line for this cause. Especially those who joined us in Haven, when we had next to nothing. If anything, I am their fan.  

22. What are you most scared of?

“Letting everyone down, and proving to be less than the person who was needed. Losing the people I love, or endangering them unnecessarily. Being a fraud or imposter. Oh, and accidentally throwing out Josephine's stash of chocolates.”

23. What do you usually wear?

“I prefer a good fit of a hunter coat and breeches and some boots. When we travel, I am usually armored very well. On my off hours, a simple night dress would do. People say I have a flare for style, but, I am really just a product of my short-lived upbringing in the Free Marches. Women there are always smartly dressed, if not modest.”

24. Do you love someone?

“Romantically? Yes, completely. But I also love my friends, and my community here. Love, to me, is a protective and honorable virtue. The way I fight for what matters is by loving the person or the cause at hand. Perhaps that causes me more trouble than it’s worth, but, that is who I am.”

25. When was the last time you wet yourself?

“How can you honestly expect me to answer that? Also, if you’ve ever asked someone who bleeds once a month, you’d be surprised.”

26. Well, it’s not over yet!

“Oh, joy.”

27. What class are you? (High class, middle class, low class)

“My family is noble in our region, so I would say lower rung of the high class. The Free Marches is a self-governing province, at least, as much as one can be in the shadow of two Empires. If you have an long-winded ancestry in the region, you’re allowed a lot of privileges.”

28. How many friends do you have?

“Too many, especially the kind that likes to get into trouble for the sake of being a hero. You need some friends? Take mine, and give me a break.”

29. What are your thoughts on pie?

“Mediocre at best. You want a pleasurable dessert experience? Go with cake, always.”

30. Favorite drink?

“Tea, actually. I drink copious amounts of wine, sure, but nothing soothes the soul like a good cup of tea. Solas and I have engaged in discourse about this matter plenty of times.”

31. What’s your favorite place?

“If I were to answer that honestly, Josephine would have my clothes set on fire. Something about “not disclosing the intimate nature of a Diplomat’s life” or whatever. So, I will name my second favorite: the Emerald Graves at dawn, when the colors of the sky foreground the greens and blues on the land. It’s stunning, really. I hope I can commission a painter to recreate it so that I may have a piece of it forever.”

32. Are you interested in someone?

“Hah, as Dorian would say, yes of course, I am a endlessly interesting person, after all.”

33. What’s your bra cup size and/or how big is your willy?

“Enough. They’re enough.”

34. Would you rather swim in the lake or the ocean?

“Swimming in an ocean? The thought of it brings me ecstasy! Ocean, of course. Imagine the trouble I could get into, maybe make a few glaciers, float on an ice sheet...nevermind.”

35. What’s your type?

“Someone with the utmost integrity in their deeds, who has a golden heart and knows that kindness and compassion are two of the most powerful elements in the world. Also, if they are a fiery-tongued Antivan, that melts my icey heart, too.”

36. Any fetishes?

“I have tastes, of course. Though, I keep the number of people who are aware of them to a minimum, need-to-know basis.”

37. Seme or uke? Top or Bottom? Dominant or Submissive?

“A capable fighter knows a little bit of everything. I like creativity the most in love.”

38. Camping or indoors?

“Whichever gets me in the closest proximity to food.”

39. Are you wanting the interview to end?

“Of course not, but, look at the time! I surely have to return to being the scourge on the land and Andraste’s chosen, right? Pfft, days were not made with my workload in mind, I’m afraid.”

40. Now it’s over!

“Fantastic. Do take care, and travel safe.”

I’m tagging @kvpowers, @the-rogue-apostate, @lelianasing, and @orlesianbard and anyone else who wishes to participate! Love and light!

♡ + family

          ——- ben and family lets go!! 

          - ben is the only child to the Cheney household. he was in fact adopted – and ben was originally born in France. in this matter, ben’s primarily spoken language is indeed French and English. his household diversity is actually pretty big in a spectrum and this is just his immediate household, his father is a french man and his mother is Italian. 

         - while im mentioning ben’s parent’s let’s get to know a bit about them yes? Louis Vafara Cheney was born in Paris France, he is the youngest son to ben’s grandparents Abel Cheney and Dianne Cheney and his elder brother is Florence Cheney ( divorced/remarried with step-children ). Louis is a management consultant, leaving him to travel across the globe for business. In this Louis is a very well educated man, he is fluent in several languages such as french, english, spansih, hangul, mandarin, and he knows conversational italian. 

         - I personally headcanon Jean./Dujardin as ben’s father. 

         - now speaking of ben’s mother, she is the most prominent parental figure in ben’s life. due to his father’s work, he isn't always around, but his mother is always around him. Margot Bice Cheney was born in Manarola Italy, and is the third eldest child to Duilio Moretti and Cloe Moretti. Younger sister to Gia Moretti ( married with children ), Lucilla Moretti ( divorced with children ), elder sister to Alonzo Moretti ( married no children ), and Celeste Moretti ( single with a cat ). Margot is a well-known painter who has sold many pieces ever since the age of twenty,  she is very bright and intelligent. She speaks italian, french, and english extremely well. 

        - i personally headcanon Monica./Bellucci as ben’s mother. 

        - now that you have met the parents, lets get into it! what led up to ben’s adoption was a simple fact that margot cannot have children. after meeting and marrying louis, its was around six years into their marriage that she wanted a child. after countless months and months of trying, she wanted to give up. however, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and it appeared to them as an elderly korean woman. now it wasn't just some random occurrence or like a beam of light came down from the clouds and shined on them and specifically told this woman, hey give them your baby. it was after a year or two of investigating did they finally meet this woman, Choi Jang-mi ( aka ben’s actual birth mother ). she was in her mid to late thirties and she’d moved to france to get away from an abusive relationship and found out that she was pregnant, and she didn’t want the child for the sole fact that it was the son of her abusive husband. 

        - when margot and louis were approached – or more so introduced to jang-mi, margot actually sat down and talked with her. had a heart to heart with louis translating, and really sat down and asked her if she really truly didn’t want this child. if the father mattered that much to her that she would willingly give up her baby, and jang-mi said it did matter to her and that even if she did keep the baby she had no way to support both herself and the child – or even really protect the child if her husband ever found her. and this doesn’t make her a bad mother or person, there are some wounds that can’t be healed and sometimes in order to prevent yourself from hurting someone who doesn’t deserve it – you give them away and let them go. 

       - well after everything had been set, signed, and marked. ben was officially margot and louis, and let me tell you that was the happiest day margot has ever been in her life. they day she held ben for the first time her heart literally just enveloped him and it clearly shows in his life just how much his mother and father really love and support him? 

       - ben has always been the center of their world, and i say both of them because even when louis is away on business trips he’s constantly calling or bringing back gifts and small things such as a snow globe for ben or a jar of sand from a beach he’s wanted to visit. margot is also so involved with ben and teaching him – it’s no wonder he turned out the way he did a lot of his mother’s talents and quirks rubbed off on him. she’s always taken time out for ben all through his childhood and even into his college years, she’s always set time aside to help or be with him and show her support. 

     - ben really looks up to his mother, and like they say mother is god in the eyes of a child – and that kind of pertains to ben and his mother. she’s always dealt with life’s struggle with a postive attutide and putting her best foot forward no matter if she knows she’s going to step on glass, and she’s done her best to raise ben to do the same. 

    - ben’s relationship with his father is rather solid as well, even if he doesnt see his father 24/7. they talk frequently on the phone when he is away ad his father tries to make it back to almost everyone of ben’s swim meets or track meets. and if he is unable to makee it his mother video tapes the meet and they watch it in the living room and his father is more than enthused and vocal on praising ben and his accomplishments. 

    - ben’s household is very supportive and rather open-minded, and i know what you’re thinking – they’re too perfect what the actual hell its creepy. they are not perfect by any means — there have been many moments in their lives that have almost split this household.in two and while ben clearly remembers those that took place while he was young he chooses to focus more on the brighter moments that have taken place with his family since they are so important to him.
