#solas x m!trevelyan

[celiansartblog]

Now that I've barely introduced my Inquisitor, time to out myself as a equal opportunity Solas truther and introduce his accidental situationship with the guy he (unintentionally) doomed

It can only end well.

Thank the maker Bull is here cause there needs to be a stabilizing presence in this mess

[nohr-selphias]

Oh man. We were so robbed to not have bi solas

[plisuu]

Happy DADWC day :D how about [ TEARS ] for sender to hold receiver while they cry after sex. for Connor/Solas?

Well. You asked for it >:] Enjoy my specialty: very sad Connor ft. very soft Solas

tw: implied past non-consent/revoked consent, trans inquisitor

wc: 400 rating: E @dadrunkwriting

The way Solas touched him was gentle—tentative, as if Connor might break under the slightest pressure. It made him feel fragile. It made him feel…

It made him feel.

He bit back a moan as delicate fingers traced along his side, leaving goosebumps in their wake. Solas was warm between his thighs, skin slick where hips slotted together. His panted breaths were quiet between them, and Connor clutched Solas close as a whine slipped from gritted teeth, his eyes squeezed shut from the pleasure and as if it might shield him from Solas’s soft and searching stare.

Their gasps and groans grew into a desperate harmony with their movements, where flesh and muscle and fingers intertwined. Connor felt the coil of tension build into anxiety, an ache in his core at every caress of Solas’s fingers, every gesture one of careful consideration. He wondered when that gentle touch would turn to one of greed as Solas’s earlier control began slip—wondered when the softness would turn to heedless desire as Solas’s breath grew ragged and mumbled in elven against Connor’s mouth, the words meaningless but laden with need.

Connor knew it wouldn’t happen—not here, not with Solas, but… what if… what if?

Solas’s pace quickened. It was too much to feel, too much to bear as past partners pressed against him with each stroke of Solas’s weight. Connor’s whines turned to whimpers, the cresting sensations lost to tumultuous thought, a spiral of fears and memories of those who expected too much, who took and took with callous-coarse grip made for swords and not skin with no care for what—or who—lay beneath them.

The tears fell hot, trailing down his cheek and into to the curls at the nape of his neck, joined by the warmth of breath chasing them, kissing the damp lines across his face. Connor didn’t know when he had stopped, only that Solas held him now, hands running through his hair, pushing strands away from his face.

“Vhenan—”

“I’m… sorry,” Connor whispered, tucking his face into Solas’s chest, curling into him as tightly as he could, trying to still his shaking hands.

“No,” Solas murmured back, concern and care and grief and guilt in his gaze. He pulled Connor closer despite the catch of sweat-sticky skin, cradling his head in his arms. “Ir abelas, vhenan. You have nothing to apologize for.”

what if 😳😳😳 we were at the fade memory party 😳😳😳😳😳 and we fell in love 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

0.2 seconds later solas reaches out and touches avery's face ☺️

aka my super duper late entry for @equalopportunitysolas week 'day 1'- the moment they knew :3

[melisusthewee]

Summary: The world is changing, with every step on the Din'Anshiral bringing it closer to the end. As he marches ever onward, Solas tries to hold on to the comforting figure of an old spirit friend who wears a mortal's face.

Pairings: Solas/Fade Spirit; Solas/Male Trevelyan

Characters: Solas, A Spirit Who May Have Once Been Wisdom, and m!Trevelyan

Rating: T for a little bit of implied shenanigans at one point

Words: 2,300 words

Notes: What's this? More Solas/Wisdom fic after a thousand years? I'm just as surprised as you! Inspired by a gift I received in this year's Arlathan Exchange, I've revisited Solas' relationship with his favourite spirit friend. In many ways, this feels like the culmination of the spirit's journey from Wisdom, to Curiosity, to something else entirely. This follows the continuity previously set out in "The Many Faces of Wisdom" as well as "The Dreamer Sets the Rules." "Callback" by Lukas Kristjanson is also recommended reading even though telling you this has likely given away the ending.

(Thank you to everyone tagging me today for WIP Wednesday. I don't have anything in progress to share because I am bringing you all this instead!)

Rosella's Recs

I thought it time I finally make a compilation of some of the fics I've enjoyed recently. Sometimes you read something and just need to shout it to the world! In this one I'll share fics that focus on some rarely-touched-upon subjects, characters, or pairings that really tickled my fancy.

but I never had a name (and I never felt the same): by mafalda_157 (@darethshirl) Rated G. In which Merrill meets Audacity, and the tangled, beautiful relationship that results from it. This fic really captures the dreamy, treacherous land of the Fade in my opinion, as well as hammer home the otherworldliness of spirits and how very different their outlook is from "normal" people's perceptions of right and wrong. Audacity is a chillingly fascinating character here and I absolutely love them, and Merrill's character voice almost brought me to tears. It's a feast for the soul from beginning to end.

doldrums: by mafalda_157 (@darethshirl) Rated G. This fic had me simultaneously howling with laughter and internally cringing at every turn. Dorian makes the mistake of discussing slavery with Lavellan, and accidentally alienates his newly-found friend. He's lonely and cold in Haven, and to offend the Herald only adds insult to injury. Dorian's internal monologue (and external monologue, let's be real) is just absolutely perfect here, and he both shatters me and heals me. Absolutely lovely and heartwarming and funny all around, and has become one of my all time favorite comfort fics.

let me occupy your mind (as you do mine): by mafalda_157 (@darethshirl) Rated E. When I finished the Eight Little Talons in Tevinter Nights, I immediately made a beeline to AO3 to find fics for my new favorite Antivans, Teia and Viago. At the time of looking, however, there were none. Since then, this little beauty was written, and boy does it deliver. It's sweet, it's fluffy, it has assassin shenanigans in Orlais, and it has two little murder hobos hopelessly in love with one another. Some of the hottest smut I've ever read, 10/10 cannot recommend enough!

Two Elves and a Vint: by cellophaneflowers (@melisusthewee) Rated T. In which Quinn Trevelyan doesn't need help so much as help when it comes to wooing our favorite Seeker of Truth. I loved reading him struggling with his pride and his need to please his lady, especially through Dorian, Sera, and Solas's eyes. To see each companion deal with Quinn in their own, very unique ways was a pleasure, and I couldn't stop grinning by the end.

The Many Faces of Wisdom: by cellophaneflowers (@melisusthewee) Rated G. This fic singlehandedly made me ship Solas/M!Trevelyan. In which Solas goes searching for remnants of Wisdom in the Fade after the events of All New, Faded for Her... and finds it. This idea was fascinating to me, of the spirit being reborn in a not-quite-familiar way, and yet still just enough of Solas's friend to make it difficult to let go. Wisdom-Curiosity-Purpose is just delightful here, morphing between its different aspects as it tries to figure out what to Be, and the face it chooses tells us more about Solas than Solas ever wanted to know. Beautiful, heartwrenching, angsty fic with a fluffy, fuzzy core.

My betrothed was displeased when he and I met.

The rumours had reached him, surely. A high-born girl with too much responsibility, my legs too weak to support the burden’s weight, leaning onto her elven beguiler. They called me the Herald of Andraste—you had, too—and… did you know? Whispers claim you are Shartan, yet louder were even the more foolish: My heart, gentle, enticed by your plight. Enchanted, fascinated. Their stories would have you think I was seduced! A wisp of human innocence, feminine beauty despoiled by an elf and his deranged hedge magic.

Was it not I who kissed you? I scarcely held your face with trembling fingers. My lips light on yours. I was certain you would slip away, disgusted. You hadn’t rejected me as a confidant, but this was more. I was truly sorry that I might offend you. Just once, I told myself, only once and you will forgive me.

Yet, the hearsay insists. You are calculating and vile, leaving me ruinous to my suitors. Maybe they are right in that. No man will ever have me now. If he dared to try, I would leave his heart hollow as you have mine.

And my betrothed must know this. I love you hopelessly still, and fiercely.

The crimson I wore screamed defiance, a gown that billowed and swirled like flames. Onyx choked me, and down my collarbones the necklace spilled into teardrops of garnet. My hair was windswept, a disarray of braids thick and thin, a tangle of blonde, the way you quite preferred it—he, however, did not. Did he question his good sense when he first saw me? Did he curse my father’s promise? I think not. All he craved was my claim and that I also give him future princes of Starkhaven. He told himself he could snuff this flickering fire of rebellion I displayed.

And I knew he broke bread with the Duke of Wycome. Duke Antoine was cruel to the elves in his city, and kept company with those likeminded.

My betrothed was displeased when I spoke against him, no matter how lightly. I understood why. A fearful dog must bare its teeth. He must break the skin of who threatens him, show that he is not to be challenged—or else.

I made light of him belittling an elven servant. How empowering, I thought aloud, to tower over the small.

I was not graceful as this lone, fluttering petal you plucked when I fell. He struck me unexpectedly harsh, splitting my lip. I tumbled to the ground. My head reeled and the pain was white-hot, but not because of the blood trickling down my chin. The voices rose in clamor all at once. They screamed, indignant. He towered over me then, but I did not feel small. My anger flared. “Ar tu na’lin emma mi,” I promised. The elf gasped. Did she know what I said?

He felt mocked when he should have felt threatened. He meant to strike again, but the elf begged him not to. She lied and pleaded. “My good lady, forgive me. I will not forget my place again. I will do as commanded.” Confused, my betrothed knew no better. Then he laughed. It amused him suddenly as the realization settled. Maybe there was hope for me, he must have thought. The elves can no longer get away with their secret words. I can get across to these lesser creatures where he might not. Yes, his bride has a talented tongue and he will use it.

My betrothed helped me to my feet then. His gloved thumb gently swiped away his reprimand. I hated him and his every touch, but this is my duty and I am mindful of it.
