This game is beautiful, but bittersweet. It’s hard to celebrate the love of something that lives in an open wound. I wish I could share this with you. We’d have so much to say.

I don't know if you've seen this, but I went to google Roses the other day to pull it up (instead of just going through ao3), and the ai overview, in its infinite uselessness, described it mostly correctly but said it was a Draka/Solas fic ? Who is Draka. what. where did that come from

I have not! Draka is a character from the World of Warcraft movie (and maybe game? It’s been 15 years since I’ve played), and like three or four years after I started writing Roses someone else published a romance novel under the same name… The title, at least in my case, is a reference to the William Blake book, “The Marriage of Heaven and Hell”. I imagine there’s references to it in most fandoms.

Since AI overview is a butchered homunculus with a “USDA Organic” label slapped on, it’s probably some unholy amalgamation of all that and some gardening tips.

How are you ? 🥰

Ironically, I was in the hospital when this message came in, and so did not see it nor think to check Tumblr until now.

Minus two organs and plus another brain hemorrhage but recovering, slowly. I am happy someone stopped by to ask. I’m sure the gods will figure out how to aim one of these days but I like imagine these are just warning shots telling me not to forget about the 20k words worth of elf smut I have yet to finish

I’ve never been a big fan of Sera, but she reminded me that sometimes we need a little distraction, hope, and fun when everything feels stressful and gloomy.

Crestwood (Inquisition AU)

A sweet (and slightly spicy) AU where the breakup in Crestwood didn’t happen, and instead the night at the lake connected them forever.

In all Thedas, I never expected to find someone who could draw my attention from the Fade. You have become important to me, more important than I could have imagined.

Nothing gets me painting backgrounds quite like Dragon Age.

Almost *smiling* Solas.

Matt Rhodes posted the final concept art of the Black Codex. But the most interesting thing is the notes that go with it.

The false gods decide to release the full power of the titan souls, which have become twisted with madness in their captivity. Solas tries to stop them.

Unable to stop them, Solas instead creates a Veil between the physical world and the magical. He binds the Veil to the blood of the false gods, turning them into the locks on their own prison.

Early humans discover the ruins of the elven empire. Using knowledge scavenged from the ruins, Tevinter spreads across Thedas as a crude copy of the elven empire.

From their prison in the Veil, the spirits of the titans lure power-hungry Tevinter magisters into the Fade to release them. Instead of a city of gold, they find a Black City. The first Blight is released.

So the magisters were originally lured to the Black City not by the evanuris, but by the spirits of titans?

Because this version is different from what Solas told Rook.
