He has long , nimble fingers. Great for using musical instruments. If he hadn’t been born the son of a Teyrn , or forced to become a Warden , he’d have made a very good minstrel.

#*/ headcanon #athelstan as the minstrel at skyhold #his whole life would be so different #he'd be so much more open to relationships #and he'd probably still be a good fighter #but not as good #he'd be scared of dragons but not traumatized until haven #he'd be happier

Please imagine stories about cryptid Athelstan , the beautiful Hero of Ferelden who disappeared off the face of Thedas after saving Amaranthine from warring darkspawn. There are always whispers of people seeing him. No one’s entirely sure exactly what he looks like ----- accounts vary wildly. They all report , however , that he’s handsome , hates being inside castle walls , and will help travelers on the road.

#*/ headcanon #he just completely detaches from the world #he enjoys this air of mystery and intrigue #and fuels it with his own stories and songs #he travels w/ at least like two people #but reports about these people are less popular #he doesn't often stick w/ them long enough #for them to become a part of his legend

He develops sort of very shallow crushes. He gets attracted to people and revels in the feeling of it all , but then at the slightest chance of anything real , of any actual feelings , he removes himself from it all completely. He will keep himself detached in pretty much all of his relationships. He won’t risk getting attached to anyone he can lose.

#*/ headcanon #its rare for his crushes to actually #be anything for him or to become anything #bc he’s lost so much #*/ mobile

Always remember Athelstan has lost everyone he’s ever loved 👍

#*/ headcanon #he’s never even met his own kid #fsjdksnsjx #i always forget about morrigan’s ritual #*/ mobile

are u still accepting smooches

He had come to live by the understanding that the best relationships came from the worst beginnings. He’d met Alistair almost immediately after his entire family had been murdered , Morrigan in a broken tower that had just been inhabited by darkspawn , Zevran had tried to kill him , and the list went on. His own parents had suffered a terrible misunderstanding on their first meeting. By all accounts , his relationship with Cullen must have been inevitable. Perhaps the ten years of separation had even strengthened it.

It had been a perilous journey out with the Inquisition’s armies. Corypheus’ forces had been angrier than usual and the fight had been tougher. Perhaps he was stupid for thinking it , but anything after the Archdemon paled considerably in comparison , and he had been somewhat careless on the battlefield. It might have been a greater wonder he wasn’t dead or more seriously injured if the lion templar himself hadn’t been watching his back. The Hero of Ferelden and the Commander of the Inquisition’s forces were an impressive team and , though their lives were evidently somewhat in the balance , he found himself enjoying it. It changed everything on the battlefield to have someone he could trust completely , to rely upon without doubt. From a warden who had lost everything and a tortured young templar first meeting in a tower overtaken by blood mages and abominations to who they were then. Definitely helped support his theory.

“ I’m glad we’re friends , Cullen ! ” He shouted , after the warrior cut down yet another red templar that had been about to get all too close. Maybe it was the adrenaline , or something else entirely , but he momentarily sheathed his two blades , took Cullen’s face between his hands , and pecked him full on the lips. It lasted no more than a second before he pulled away and grinned deviously. He patted him on the cheek as if it all meant nothing , ran off to strike down yet another opponent , and pretended his pounding heart was all due to the fight.

KISSES 3/5

He gets injured a lot even though he’s a really great fighter. It’s his tendency to not worry about defense. His theory ‘ faster take down , less chance for injuries ’ isn’t always accurate.

#*/ headcanon #this is still accurate #he's such a careless fighter #particularly after the archdemon

loudly requests a smooch

In another life , things might have been easier for them. He would still have a family. His nephew would have had the chance to grow up , fight direbunnies , and learn how to pronounce ‘ sword ’ properly. His brother would have had a second child with his beautiful wife , maybe even a third. His father could have passed the title of Teyrn onto Fergus without incident , and the Couslands would have continued to reign happily over Highever for generations. He wouldn’t be damaged in another life , irreparably broken , tormented by his past.

She didn’t deserve him. She was too good , too strong , too deserving of someone who could properly handle his emotions. He was a mess. For so long he’d ignored it , denied it , fought it even. His growing feelings for her would ruin them both , he’d been sure of it. Here they were , trying to save the world , and he might just be falling in love with her smile , with the power of her magic , with the way she teased him , with every single part of her. It wasn’t right , it wasn’t appropriate , and it terrified the hell out of him. Maker , he’d just lost his entire family and here he was caring about someone ? Someone he could very possibly , very easily lose.

His heart wouldn’t be able to take it. Her death would shatter him. It did shatter him. She died fighting the Archdemon and everything he knew ended with her. Her broken , lifeless body cradled in his arms and his screams had scratched his throat raw , long-dried tears mixed with blood and dirt. He kissed her , leaned in and pressed his lips to her in the gentlest way he knew how. His fingers brushed against her hair as they rose to cradle her cheeks. “ Pros , I love you. ” He whispered against her mouth , his heart breaking. “ I love you. ”

LET HER SMOOCH HER BFF

Corypheus’ defeat had signaled the end of his time with the Inquisition. With the darkspawn threat gone , so to was the Warden. It was almost a requirement for the members of his Order. When duty called , he would be first and foremost at the frontlines , working to restore peace and save lives. After that , he would fade back into obscurity , continue on in the shadows , to once again become almost nothing more than a legend. For him , it meant continuing the search for a cure to the taint , a potentially fruitless endeavour to extend his and his brethren’s lifetimes.

It didn’t make it easy to leave. Just because it was the way it was , the way he lived , it wasn’t easy. Save the world with someone , constantly risk your life for and with someone , to love someone the way he loved Sidri , and it was one of the hardest things he’d done. She was a part of his family. Her with her big heart , her strength , her understanding , and she had disarmed him and his defences before he’d ever really had a chance to fight her on it. It hadn’t been an inevitable thing. Just because they both knew what it was like to shoulder the weight of the world on their shoulders , it wasn’t an instant kinship. It had been her. It had been Sidri and her friendship and who she was as a person that made him almost choke on tears the day he set to leave Skyhold.

“ We both know how the world works. ” He said softly , his backpack slung over one shoulder. He might have attempted a smile if it wouldn’t have been more of a grimace instead. “ It’ll break again. When that happens , I’ll be right by your side. I wouldn’t rather face the end of the world again with anyone else. ” He leaned in and pressed a gentle kiss to the side of her mouth , lingering a little for his desire not to say goodbye. “ I don’t tend to let people know where I am —– makes me more mysterious —– but I’ll send you letters. You can choose to respond or not. I hope I haven’t assumed too much from our friendship. ” Even when sad , he couldn’t help trying to be humourous. “ Take care of yourself , okay ? ”

FIRST FIVE ASKS GET A KISS

❝ I’m not getting drawn into this mess! ❞

His fingers were steepled , tips touching lips set in a firm grimace. She had good reason to be distressed. Now that the Inquisition had gained enough power and influence , become a force of authority in Thedas , everyone wanted her involved in their messy , often bloody conflicts. “ I don’t suggest you do. You already have far too much on your plate without having to worry about this as well. You’re saving the world , Sidri. Their problem is nothing if you don’t wish it to be. Anyone should be able to understand that. ” He ran one his hands through his hair , licked his lips , and then sighed slightly. “ On the other hand , you could send me to deal with it. I’m sure that they could settle for the Hero of Ferelden getting involved in their matters if the Inquisitor is too busy. I do hate politics and castles but at least I too have experience with them. I’m sure you’d handle just fine without me while I deal with it all. Anything I can do to help you , just say the word. ”

KING ARTHUR / LEGEND OF THE SWORD PROMPTS .

❝ Why have enemies when you can have friends? ❞

❝ I thought you’d be taller and would have a beard. ❞

❝ I see you’re trying to get me to do something razzle-dazzle with that sword. ❞

❝ There’s an army of you, there’s only one of me. ❞

❝ I’ve talked, I’m happy to talk, but there is no way… that I am fighting. ❞

❝ Hang that up, don’t want it getting creased. ❞

❝ It should be clear by now that whatever you and your friends think I am, I am not it. ❞

❝ It’s all yours, son. Though I warn you, it’s got quite a bite. ❞

❝ You wanted to know what gave me such drive? It was you. ❞

❝ I am here now because of you. You created me. And for that, I bless you. ❞

❝ You’re no longer dealing with the man you previously met. ❞

❝ You’re no longer a myth. You’re starting to mean something. ❞

❝ You are resisting the sword. The sword isn’t resisting you. ❞

❝ You want him to think big? Give him something big to think about. ❞

❝ They’re fighting in your name. ❞

❝ How do you get money from a Viking? ❞

❝ You have won, [ NAME ]. You have won. Now, play with me. ❞

❝ When people fear you, it is the most intoxicated position a man can possess. ❞

❝ You know what happens now. You’re quickly becoming a legend. ❞

❝ This lot’s been trying that for years. Good luck doing that for them. ❞

❝ And once you finish it, how are you supposed to get to the middle? ❞

❝ Let me show you what your uncle will do if you do not accept. ❞

❝ The sword is yours now, son. Take it. ❞

❝ Long live the King! Long live the King! ❞

❝ I’m a little old for finger-wagging and speeches. ❞

❝ Can you just get around to telling me exactly what it is you want? ❞

❝ It’s quite dangerous being one of you lot, isn’t it? ❞

❝ You’re good with animals, aren’t you? ❞

❝ Never met one of you in the flesh. I thought you’d be taller… ❞

❝ You have to break his old self completely, wear him down. ❞

❝ You’re playing with fire, [ NAME ]. ❞

❝ I’m not killing the king before he’s even become one! ❞

❝ Pick it up. Pick it up with both hands. ❞

❝ If you want that sword so much, your lordship, you can keep it… ❞

❝ Now, that would have hurt a lot more if I’d left the ring on. ❞

❝ It was [ NAME ] who murdered your father ❞

❝ Did you see everything you needed to see? ❞

❝ I need you to do as I tell you. I need to get you and the boy away from here. ❞

❝ You sharpened the blade. You created me. ❞

❝ Why has the water dropped? Why does the sword reveal itself now? ❞

❝ As your power increases, so do to the forces that will oppose you. ❞

❝ The born king will come. It is inevitable. ❞

❝ You felt it, didn’t you, my power? ❞

❝ I’ve never had any power or any desire to achieve it. ❞

❝ Don’t worry. You will soon understand what all the fuss is about. ❞

❝ What you didn’t account for is what you can do with this sword. ❞

❝ You wanted the prophecy, this is your prophecy. ❞

❝ The man who pulled sword from stone, behold, your born king! ❞

❝ Because for the first time, there is something you don’t know. ❞

❝ What gave you such drive? you felt if, the power, didn’t you? ❞

❝ I’m not getting drawn into this mess! ❞

❝ There are rumors, the legend of the sword, of a king other than yourself. ❞

❝ Listen to me, I need you to do as I tell you. ❞

❝ If I go down, you follow him. If he goes down, you follow me. ❞

❝ Did you see everything you needed to see? ❞

❝ Are you scared? You should be. ❞

❝ You make sense of the devil. ❞

❝ You put me in that brothel. You cut me on the streets. ❞

❝ But doesn’t it make the palace burn well? ❞

❝ No, I mean I’m sorry. You’ve made a mistake. ❞

❝ I’ll step off this throne and you can deal with me as the man you previously met. ❞

❝ Well, now that’s out the way, let’s eat. ❞

❝ I understand there’s been a change in the leadership. ❞

❝ I am confident that you will still honor the agreement made. ❞

❝ I’m prepared to extend the deadline by a week. ❞

❝ We’ve been wondering what you were doing in here. ❞

❝ I like it. What is it? ❞

❝ I’m not getting drawn into this mess. There’s an army of you. ❞
