wip wednesday (ish)

i was tagged by @bitchesofostwick, it's not wednesday anymore so i'm not gonna tag anyone, but here's a snippet from my upcoming fic about a pairing that started as a joke and now i'm way too invested, (tagging @purahs bc she's in hell with me)

* * * *

Several of the candles had actually sputtered out and the fire was burning low by the time Anora put down her quill with a triumphant smile. Teagan chuckled and stood, stretching out the stiffness in his back with a groan.

“Are you satisfied that the agreement is up to your standards now, my lady? Can we finally retire for the night?”

Anora laughed too, and rubbed her eyes. “I believe we can.”

Teagan gathered up some of the papers, still smiling helplessly as he stored them away. He crossed back to the table, and as he reached to pick up a candle holder, Anora suddenly turned around, evidently planning to speak to him but not anticipating him being so close, and they both froze in place, bodies almost pressed against each other and faces inches apart.

It was as if the room itself was holding its breath.

All Teagan could do was stare at her, pulse thudding in his ears, the skin at the back of his neck prickling as the tension mounted. The glow of the fire turned her hair to gold, her skin bathed in ethereal light. Her chest moved in shallow breaths, the elegant slope of her neck stretched out, chin tipped up as she looked at his face. The moment stretched out for several lifetimes, the silence between them too holy to profane with anything as base as speech. Teagan kept as still as possible, terrified that a single movement might break the spell, that he would lose this, lose her, and he would rather stay like this forever than go back to being without her.

“Teagan...” She whispered, eyes still fixed on his.

“Anora, I…” He trailed off, completely at a loss as for what else to say. Agonisingly slowly, he lifted his hand, letting out a long, shaky breath as he reached forward to cup her face gently, and brush her cheek with his thumb. “I want…” he said, hoarsely, heart threatening to beat out of his chest. “I want…” He repeated helplessly.

It was almost imperceptible, but as he lapsed into silence again, Anora leaned into his touch, pressing them a fraction closer. Teagan couldn’t hold back any longer, and finally, crossed the impassable distance between them and kissed her.

Did the numbers, and my family is about $200 short of making our car payment due tomorrow, 13-Feb. If anyone has anything they can spare to go towards trying to raise these funds, I would be very thankful!

I've definitely talked about it before. but like. the executor secret ending of veilguard is just a rehash of antisemetic conspiracy theories.

the idea that this secret group of people is pulling strings for their own ends, by covertly influencing society and putting people of their choosing into the "right place at the right time" to further their own agenda - that is just the protocols of the elders of zion. the idea of the illuminati and a new world order or a secret cabal, all of these have roots in antisemetism and the concept of the "jewish elite".

there is no interpretation of the ending that absolves it of this context.

it pisses me off so bad when someone's like "oh, you've identified a collection of racist/transmisogynistic/antisemetic/etc tropes in this character? and you're criticizing it? well YOU'RE the REAL bigot for associating those tropes with those demographics in the first place!" like it's some kind of gotcha moment and not an immediate indication that i'm doing the equivalent of playing chess with a pigeon

randomly thinking about dwight and anora again tonight.

[jewishzevran]

imagine being in love with a girl but she has to marry someone else because he's the crown prince and they've been betrothed since birth. and you go to the wedding because you promised her you would. and also you're kinda friends with him as well. but afterwards you barely see her because it hurts too much.

then years later, you have to jailbreak her from the house of the man that murdered your family before he murders her too. and she's now a widow. and you hadn't really processed that because you're a grey warden stopping the blight and trying to prevent a civil war. and you don't know what to say. and then she smiles at you.

[jewishzevran]

and THEN you get surrounded by guards and immediately surrender to protect her. and you sit in prison agonising over whether trying to escape will affect her long enough that your companions engage in a scooby doo-ass rescue, and then you have to go to the landsmeet where her father accuses you of murdering her late husband and trying to lead a coup to seize power. and then you have to duel him. and then win and you could execute him for his numerous crimes but you spare his life and conscript him into the grey wardens. because you love her.

Another fav minor character - Lirene. The only person in Kirkwall with her shit truly together. Willing to throw hands to protect Anders. Doesn’t have time for your bullshit.

[tempesthawke]

We agree at last.

I know that like, every LI goes to comfort Hawke regardless but for Fenris's romance I think it's a very touching moment because at this point, they don't even have a relationship going on.

He is well aware he broke things off (if you're a dramatic bitch like me you could even say he broke their heart lol) but he knows that Hawke needs someone.

I keep wondering if someone else told him to go there of he went there out of his own volition, but either, its almost a way of saying things may be awkward between us but I'm here for you.

And like, Fenris is *bad* with this. He even says it so himself that he does not know what to say. He has not really been in a situation like that (or at least doesnt remember).

But he knows that Hawke is going through an extremely difficult time and the best he can offer is to be there, even at the risk of them turning him away.

YES. THIS. I'm stealing your tags to talk about this because I was thinking about it last night and one of the things that makes me love Fenhawke so much is that like they both care and love each other so much.

Because like you don't stay single for 3 years because of a simple hookup. The fact that both of them were still thinking about the after despite the break up, despite them never adressing what happened for 3 years and still somewhat holding onto hope (i'm thinking of the friendship dialogue in act 3 where hawke says they hope it means they can stay together) that you'll come back together.

And like, I love that Hawke can fully begin another relationship after. And I love it because it feels realistic to me cause like, who is going to stay this hung up over the ex, but also because it makes the choice of turning everyone else down to stick with Fenris eve more meaningful? Its like hawke saying yes, I could have had something with Anders/Isabela/Merrill but I chose you, even when we were not together (and realistically, at that point, they don't know that they'll come back together)

and i'm glad you pointed out that he didn't break it off bc he didn't care but because there was too much going on for him to handle. Like, no wonder that Fenris can only commit to a relationship once Danarius is dead.

In act 2, Fenris goes from being actively pursued by Hadriana, discovering he has a sister who's alive and then killing one of his abusers, he has all this anger inside of him then he jumps on Hawke's bed, only to have his forgotten memories come back like no wonder he felt like he couldn't deal with a relationship at the moment. Fenris is being haunted and hunted by his past, its hard for him to think there could be a future.

BUT act 3 fenris has had three years to cope with all that and although meeting Varania did not go as he had planned, at least he is now free. Danarius is dead and his sister is also either dead or gone. There is basically nothing holding him back. It's interesting to me how in like act 1 and 2 Fenris constantly asks Hawke what do you do when you stop running and if Hawke tells him to do something new, he says that he doesn't know how. His life is basically just waiting for the moment Danarius is going to strike, he says so himself that the revenge he feels is a poison that he keeps drinking.

And then act 3 comes around, and after you deal with that whole danarius and varania thing, and Fenris says that magic has taken everything and he's all alone, hawke goes and says 'im here' and this dude pulls out the biggesst, saddest eyes EVER, and the fucking pain on his face, but also in a way it kinda mirrors what he did for hawke after leandra's death? Like they're STILL in this awkward situationship but Hawke is showing that no, fenris is not alone, even if things are weird with the two of them, they're there for him (and personal HC but given the look on his face, i think its lowkey in that moment that fenris realizes that like shit, hawke still cares for him and he still cares for them so maybe there's hope)

I've been talking for too long but GAAA i just love fenhawke so much. they both care for each other even when they're apart

Opinions on how lyrium affects mages in dragon age

They also get addicted and withdrawal but they dont show it

They take a different lyrium that doesnt do that

The lyrium in their system dissapears when they use it for magic

They can get mana inbalance sometimes but different problems

(Other thing I will say in replies/tags)
