My hot Dragon Age: the Veilguard take is that Lucanis has absolutely zero game. People portray him as super cool and flirty and suave and I’m like
This is a man who does not know what to do with a compliment. He’s a little business boy who has a big job and an overbearing grandmother.
You say something sexy to him and he fucking chokes on his own spit.
Y’all hear the accent and think sensual right away but this man hasn’t slept in like 3 weeks, is literally running on Spite, and hides in the pantry most of the time.
No game whatsoever.
I love him 🥹💕

Hear me out, if Dorian Pavus apprenticed under Emmrich in Nevarra in his teens, he probably not only picked up fom hin not just spells, but also the love for facial hair.
Imagine, of you will, baby gay Dorian with a massive crush on his necromancy professor, who not only knows all there is to know about the death, he's also soft spoken, erudite and openly bisexual, coming back to Tevinter with the first wisps of his signature mustache, and a new need to be himself openly. No wonder he'd rebelled and gone off the rails.
Also, imagine Felix seeing him for the first time and making fun of his mustache, and Dorian defending it because it looked so good on Emmrich.

I automatically sorted the lines of every Dragon Age character from DA: Inquisition and DA: Veilguard into their own text files, and uploaded them to google drive.
Dialogue Separated By Speaker for 1500 Different Dragon Age Characters ↗
This comes with my:
ORGANIZED INQUISITION SCRIPT
ORGANIZED VEILGUARD SCRIPT
If you are confused about a line you've never seen before in your favorite character's file, you can search for it in the full scripts (organized by scene and with speakers labeled) I made, and it will give you the context! It could be a deleted line, it could be something that was cut but they recorded dialogue, it could just be a really rare line! There seem to be many secrets left to find, even about Inquisition after 10 years.
Anyway, feel free to use this for whatever you like. I personally love these kinds of files and think they're great help when writing fanfic to get a character's voice right! I hope you find something interesting.

Ok in a lot of video games, you'd have someone in your group that can do something cool, like talk to corpses, and then you never use it. Why do they do that.
Veilguard gave us a guy that talks to corpses and legitimately everyone in the group is solving problems by having this guy talk to corpses. He's talking to corpses left and right, I just had three separate cut scenes of corpse guy doing his corpse thing and I love it.
#emmrich volkarin#dragon age#dav#datv#dragon age veilguard#dragon age the veilguard#like whatever companion writing issues there may be everyone is also like hey theres a corpse and we have Emmrich lets go#or theres a mystery lets get Neve or if something needs assassinating we have a guy#and I think so many other video games have like a cool power for one cutscene and you dont get to use it again or else characters are meant#to pretend it doesnt exist#emmrich#1k

- Walk It Off -
The relationship between Lucanis and Taash is one of an extremely patient mentor and an eager and willing student. If Taash was injured, Lucanis would have the utmost faith in their ability to push through the discomfort and get back to what they do best.
Of course, Spite would interject but everyone ignores him anyway.
The Spanish phrase “Sana, sana, colita de rana” is a common saying used by parents in Latino communities to comfort children who have been hurt or fallen.
I love the fact that Lucanis interjects Spanish into his conversations with various companions. As someone who deeply understands 'code-switching,' it's extremely endearing to see him 'slip.'

After their fight against the gods is done, after the Veil is once again secured, I imagine Rook wanting to do something for Lucanis - something special. Especially since they finally can. After much deliberation (approximately 15 seconds and a side glance at the wyvern-tooth dagger sitting carefully on Lucanis' night stand), Rook has a wyvern-spotting adventure planned. A bag sits ready with camping gear, food rations, a wyvern species encyclopedia, a journal and all the art supplies they could find within a few hours.
Convincing Lucanis takes less than a minute, and the next thing they know, they’re hiking across the Orlesian wilderness.
The first wyvern they spot will be permanently engraved into Rook’s memory – whether that’s from the beast’s presence or from Lucanis’ reaction is up for debate (is it really, though?). Regardless, Rook will inevitably become an expert on that particular species of wyvern.
“Rook!” “Rook.” RookRookRook, look!” “ROOK.” They swear that last one was Spite, but Lucanis calls out them every few minutes during their adventure, each time a wyvern so much as blinks funny. There, Rook is witness to one of the biggest (and longest-lasting) grins Lucanis has ever displayed. Eyes bright, body practically buzzing with excitement as they crouch behind cover. Rook doesn’t know if anything can beat the feeling pounding at their chest.
Rook reaches an important conclusion, they fucking love wyverns.

Listen to me and listen close. You simply cannot make me hate a dragon age game. I loved DA 2 when they reused the same maps over and over and drowned us in random encounters. I loved Inquisition when we spent 20 hours in the hinterlands. I loved Veilguard every time Rook put his dumb hands on his stupid hips. I love these games, I would like more, and simply cannot board the hate train. I totally get why people are upset, but the game was fun, it made me cry, and I’m going to play it 12 more times just like I did the other three.

Spite Wants To Set A Flame
Lucanis (and by extension, Spite) have been helping Bellara with her romance novel. Flowery language and smut metaphors lead Spite to some surprising conclusions.
╔══════════════════════════════════════════╗ prev Part 8 of Burn After Reading banter series next ╚══════════════════════════════════════════╝ Enjoying my work? You can leave me a tip on Ko-Fi | Have a request? Part of an on-going series of fan-writings. See the full Masterlist here.
As someone on the autism spectrum, I remember struggling with interpreting metaphor as a young person A LOT. As soon as it was introduced in Veilguard that Bellara was writing some smutty fanfiction, the first thoughts I had were "Oh, the neurospicy gang is gonna struggle." (Mainly Taash and Spite.)
This is fanfiction written by me, @ellie-writes-games. These are NOT actual screenshots from the game. Peace, love, and mad props to the DA writers.

rookanis players: why isnt Lucanis' romance more passionate, more physical!! Why is he so subdued and quiet!! You barely even kiss!! Lucanis, fresh out of a year in a demonic torture pit, having just had one of his two remaining family members taken from him just as he's freed, almost losing Treviso to the elvhen gods which are a) apparently real and b) that he's apparently now responsible for killling and who, oh yeah, also is always literally on the brink of exhaustion because he can't sleep or his spite demon goes around causing mischief and sniffing people: rook, mi vida, please give me a break
#i love my tired man he's done nothing wrong 😭#datv#datv spoilers#da:v#da:v spoilers#rookanis#rookanis spoilers#rook x lucanis#lucanis dellamorte#spite dragon age#if you stand around and watch Lucanis while he's sitting on his little cot he ends up bobble heading like an overtired toddler#please guys he'd kiss Rook so passionately if he wasn't seeing like four of their faces overlapping at any given moment#the spirit is willing#guys this is a joke about lucanis being too tired to get it up#can ya'll be a little more chill and not get cranky in the replies about whether or not you think his writing was lackluster#because im too old for fandom wank and i WILL be starting to block people who are annoying me

No but the 'team meeting' after the fall of Weisshaupt was so. unorganic or unnatural. 'What a crushing defeat, maybe we should focus on our mental health now to do better next time.' Like hello??? This is not your job of which you had to take a step back from because your boss is an asshole?? You are all at war against two gods who keep Resident Eviling the world?????? I mean it's not such an awful idea but it's executed rather poorly. Like the game was this close to display a message saying 'You have just finished one of the main quest. You should focus on the companion's quests next.'
#veilguard not beating the 'HR was present in the room during writing sessions' allegations or something#i don't have the words yet to expess precisely why this scene is so. fucking weird.#but as a transition it's 4/10 lol#dragon age#dav#datv#dav spoilers#datv spoilers#veilguard spoilers#dav critical#datv critical#wave posts

no more romance. romance is canceled. tell me about your warden/hawke/inquisitor's best friend and any info you want to add about their dynamic 🖐
#and by “romance is canceled” i mean that i have been writing so much angsty romance lately that i need something to balance it out#dragon age#dragon age origins#dragon age: origins#dao#dragon age 2#da2#dragon age inquisiton#dai#dragon age: inquisition#hero of ferelden#champion of kirkwall#the inquisitor#inquisitor#i have way too many ocs to do this with so i'll go with kinera#he was close with his entire companion group (minus wynne and oghren) during the fifth blight#but he was especially close with sten and morrigan. sten kind of accidentally cracked kinera's egg and#kinera was fascinated by morrigan because shes a mage outside of the circle#and in dai kinera was initally close with solas– until it really kicked in how much solas disliked the dalish and how much#he viewed kinera as being an “exception” when kinera already felt like an outcast due to mostly growing up outside of a clan bc he was take#to a circle.#healing sessions for the anchor got Really tense after that. and then morrigan showed up and kinera was#just yippie yippie!! because very briefly he had alistair leliana and morrigan all back together again
