hey everyone "I" have something to show "you"
my thing about datv is i have literally no beef with people who enjoy the game like you'll catch me dead before you catch me shitting on fans for the simple crime of being fans but what i think is actually borderline disgusting is how many fans feel the need to shit on everyone else for not liking the game and refusing to separate their enjoyment from the degradation of everyone else who dares criticize it. its never normal ass criticism either its insane reductive garbage like "disliking the sanitization of the setting makes you a rape fetishist" or "wanting more conflict between characters is an indication you are emotionally stunted" like unironically in what world do you live in where these are even remotely sane conclusions to draw about people who didn't like your insane corporatized fanfic
she’s so sick of them
Literally how my Rook felt!
Out of Curiosity
Do you think Illario could ever be redeemed for what he did?
Yeah, I think he can
Nah, never
Nuance/explanation/show results/some third thing
I feel like he COOOOOULD, but he'd have to actually hit rock bottom and Illario hasn't yet. He's been deeply humiliated sure, but humiliation alone isn't going to change a man like Illario. Forgiving him is an important step in his path to change and redemption, however. Not because it will make him feel guilty because it won't, at least, not at first. The dude thinks far too highly of himself. I think he would have preferred death because it would have been less shameful for him. Illario needs to find something he cares about more than himself (which does not need to be a romantic thing, in fact I doubt a romance could accomplish it) and that will be the catalyst of his change. Then once he does care, over time he will look back on the way he treated others and he will fall to his knees humbled by the grace and mercy extended to him when he never deserved it. Odds are likely that the guilt will eat at him from the inside and drive him to apologize and knowing the Crow mindset, try to make up for his failings.
As for the type of person it would take, I suspect it would take a child or protege (Especially he is unconditionally and non-romantically loved and respected by them). Someone he is very directly responsible for in one way or another. If it was a romantic interest, I suspect would have found somebody by now (though it would certainly make for a damn good redemption romance fic).
How LIKELY is he to change? Not very. He is very clearly narcissistic and it is incredibly difficult for narcissists to go through this type of change. On top of that, he's in his late 30s, approaching the 40s. Going through such drastic changes after around 43-46 significantly decreases the likelihood of that level of change (though it doesn't make it impossible by any means. I've seen people that age and much older change drastically).
There is my attempt at an analysis.
...how much of a bastardass solas is to rook vs how sweet-loverboy solas is with vhenan gives me whiplash and makes me both horny and physically ill
he would never show vhenan that side of him. like he tried so hard in trespasser and he physically couldn't do it. he called her vhenan and almost choked to death holding back his tears and self hatred as he kissed her lmfaoaofjilhbleiuhb
and then with rook he's like
"yeah i hate blood magic >:(" *blood magics rook to get his way*,
"varric, yeah? at least you still have him to chat with. lol." *literally kills varric and uses blood magic to fool rook about it*,
*traps rook in the fade with the full intention to leave them there to rot and die in the worst fucking prison imaginable to him specifically*,
"i swear 2 god and on the lives of all my friends (leaves vhenan out of it) the veil won't come down by my hand sweetie pie :) love u. we've made such good memories together, yeah?" *because the veil will come down by rook's hand, the chesspiece solas uses to win the game, doesn't give a single flying fuck about rook other than that they are his foil and he begrudgingly respects them*.
i love pookie so much. he's so dastardly and pathetic at the same time
Viago showed up!! Of course he had to make a dramatic entrance with poisoned ballistas
It was nice to see Rook all excited to see her practically older brother Talon show up
This. This is the exact moment I absolutely fell in love with Viago.

One day, you will log on and see this, it might be days, it might be years, but it's going to be really funny when you do because I'm not even telling you I tagged you in something lol It will just be a nice little surprise.
He wants Rook so badly okay like come on this is all so suggestive
Viago: I am at a loss for words-! Rook de Riva, narrating: Though he claimed he was speechless, Viago yelled at me for 45 minutes.
Please look at the cheese on the plate.
Now please look at the cheese on Rook's plate.
Rook sat down mid conversation, and the cheese wheel in both shots looks about the same. So someone just put a whole hunk of cheese on Rook's plate in preparation of them coming? No one else has food on their plate. In fact, the only food on the table is that cheese wheel. So either:
It's not dinnertime, but someone knew Rook would want a snack (valid).
OR
They just finished a meal, and the only thing the companions saved for Rook was some cheese (also valid).
I'm not sure which one is funnier 😂
This fits so well for me I'm mad I didn't notice this
My Rook I headcanon as the daughter of Alistair and my Warden, so like, this is perfect for her.

This poll was originally run prior to Veilguard’s release.
I am trying to understand if people prefer the same romances or not (ex. if a lot of people tend to romance the same characters each game) a
Last day to submit your answers for the DA romances survey!! During the weekend I will put together all the results
ENDGAME SPOILERS FOR VEILGUARD (again)
Seriously, don't read this post or watch the clip if you don't want spoilers.
Hope I'm not interrupting?
Now we just need a Mod that puts him in mismatched fabrics (particularly plaideweave) so I can recreate this iconic look.
Why Fenris could Never Cameo in Dragon Age: The Veilguard
In the run up to Dragon age: The Veilguard, I was almost certain that Fenris would be our main legacy character from previous games. Not only has he been central in the comics released between DAI and DATV, he is an escaped Tevinter slave who's plot revolved around magisters, magic and the structural prejudices surrounding elves in Thedas. Not only that, but he's canonically in Tevinter killing slavers currently so he's geographically in the right place for us to meet him.
About halfway through the game though, it was clear to me: Fenris could never cameo in The Veilguard. Because he'd break it.
