which of your stories are you most proud to have finished? are there any little details you put into your stories that you're particularly proud of? 💜
Hey, Mer! Thank you for asking c:
Hmmm taking this in two ways:
Proud to have finished as in, proud that I managed to finish it has to be Wander the Drifting Roads, which is one of my two long fics. I was editing while I was posting and caught up to the point I'd edited to, which caused me disproportionate stress haha. For a minute, I wasn't sure I was ever going to get that last chapter into a state I was okay with posting. I briefly considered walking away, but I am so glad I didn't!! It is still one of my favorite things I've written.
Proud that I wrote in general is probably Palimpsest, which 1) I still feel clever over the name and 2) that section of act 2 remains the crunchiest Dragon Age thing to me (it is just so!!!! *paragraph deleted*) and 3) I love writing from inside Fenris's head and I am very, very proud of how the fic came out in general.
*gets out the red string* okay so you know how there are a bunch of statues of people in random poses that don't really look like they're carved from anything? and how Solas froze a ton of people in Trespasser in stone? well, in my fic The Scourge of Sundermount, the Lavellan there comes across a left-behind remnant of Mythal's soul in a bit of the amulet Merrill used to bring her back and she becomes a sort of Medusa-esque figure, capable of (involuntarily) turning people to stone with a remnant of that power. I have a hard time reading that story because it is very sad, but I do feel clever about the details in the way I situated that AU.

I’m going to play Veilguard day one
I took days off work so I could play it the moment it drops
I’ve waited ten years (a literal 1/3 of my life) for this game and I’m gonna play it and even if it’s not my favorite I’m sure I’ll still enjoy it because BioWare, for all their faults, does manage to write characters and companions that draw you in
But I’m still going to be skeptical. I’m going to be critical, you can critique things you love.
I’d argue you should critique them
They’ve had 10 years to do this, it should be as close to flawless as humanly possible
And we’re allowed to be upset if it’s not
We’re allowed to hold space for disappointment and discussion and while I agree it’s best to wait for the entire game before deciding if it’s good or not.
Let people criticize what we have seen and had confirmed about the game.
Let people be skeptical and nervous and maybe even a little disappointed
It doesn’t mean we’re not still massive fans

i've been playing the series over and over for years at this point and every time i step back into inquisition after origins and 2 i notice how clean it is. ferelden isn't brown. nobody's skin is mottled or discoloured. the loading screens have no grit to them anymore. there are no traps to disarm. the darkspawn don't seem so dangerous now, more goofy than anything. the persistent gore is a light splatter that i barely even notice. the sky over haven is so clear and bright and i remember when it was this eerie, grey tinged fog. there's no deathroot in ferelden anymore. there's no wrinkles on leliana's face.
what I'm getting at is that they yassified thedas and it's started to feel a little uncanny to me. throw some dirt back on it bioware i am begging you

it's so fuckin funny to me that one of the devs was like "oh the combat in veilguard will be ACTUALLY FUN" like... bitch i LIKED the combat in origins and 2! it was actually fun for me! the issue was that you fucking CHANGED it for inquisition, and now you're changing it again! it doesn't even feel like dragon age combat anymore! what is wrong with you
#origins was my favorite but da2 combat was still like... tolerable at least#and i still managed to enjoy it y'know#but inquisition completely dumbed down tactics to a point where i couldn't actually effectively strategise#and i fucking hate how they handled the mage skill trees#ik archery was better in 2 and inquisition than it was in origins but like#they could definitely have improved archery without taking away from the mage abilities!#“oh yeah let's completely remove the entropy/spirit/healing trees and expect everyone to be fine with it” please just go die in a hole rn#origins skill trees were my fucking favorite they were so versatile while still being well-organised and the mage abilities were the GOAT#ik some people didn't like origins combat but i think for veilguard bioware could've made like#a standard mode and an advanced mode for tactics and by default it would be set to standard but for those of us who like tactics#we could like go in and toggle the advanced mode and it would be completely separate from the difficulty settings so that if we just want t#have more control over the tactics we totally could. y'know. instead of bioware comepletely overcomplicating the combat#but then only giving us THREE (3) FUCKING SKILLS TO HAVE EQUIPPED AT ANY GIVEN TIME LIKE THE FUCKING DUMBASSES THEY ARE.#LIKE THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF VEILGUARD COMBAT HAS STRAYED SO FAR FROM DRAGON AGE COMBAT IN THE FIRST PLACE. UGH.#oh yeah that's right i got carried away but i do still need to tag this as dragon age lol#dragon age#dragon age veilguard#dragon age the veilguard#datv

Take a shot anytime someone describes Solas’s plan with the specific phrase, “drowning the world in demons.”

i love when you're just vibing w a new game and you have loose ideas of the characters and suddenly you're hit w a "oh man i have a new favourite don't i" bc uhhhh yeah
#shut up danni's talking#i should make a dragon age liveblog tag maybe bc inquisition is making me feel things#like i was already sucked in w the first two games but inquisition upped the game in some areas#danni liveblogs dragon age#anyways. one of my very minor pet peeves in da is that you get new companions every single game and very very few stick around#so i wasn't expecting to like a lot of the companions in inquisition and that kinda came true considering i have mixed opinions on like.#at least three of them i think. two for certain but one im still unsure abt#those are solas and sera w the other being cole#so i am INCREDIBLY pleased to be like new fave#bc i didn't really have one in 2 it sort of ended up being fenris i liked best but not enough to feel so strongly abt#my new fave btw is dorian he's just so dramatic and though he's prideful its not to an extent that it becomes a vice its endearing#he knows when to push it away sometimes and its great#my favourite non-companion is krem tho#he's so cool#not bc he's trans which he IS and i love him for it but bc he's just really a nice character????#slightly disappointed he's voiced by a woman but his voice actor is one of my favourite game voice actors so i have conflicting opinions#(its jennifer hale. she did female shepard in mass effect and rivet in ratchet and clank)#my second fave companion is varrick he's just. a wonderful friend and i love him.#he's so aro-coded and i love that for him. genuinely would love to be his bestie irl#he's also so supportive of hawke and the inquisitor he's like 'hell this one gets into all kinds of shit i have GOT to be there for them'#anyways. back to dragon age lol

It's subtle but I love how the Inquisitor smiles at Cullen once he notices her <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The way he stares at her, my heart
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love how their gentle touches towards each other so much, the forehead touch that follows is also so sweet (but not included here)

Again, the way he stares at her!!!! This scene drives me insane
