thinking about how indignant leliana gets if you ask her about just how close her relationship to divine justinia was early into inquisition, because god forbid you force her to make the connection between her and marjolaine, or accept that the woman she idolizes now failed her in so many of the same ways as the woman who groomed her as a teen

[ettadunham]

woman who is so normal when asked if she was 'more than friends' with someone

[persephoneinthegardens]

it was so much worse for me when I played origins for the first time (inq was my first dragon age game) and when i heard justinia say "tell leliana 'i'm sorry. i failed you, too'" i always assumed she meant that they failed eachother, like leliana told her that she failed her before her death. but when i learned about marjolaine, i was like wait. what if justinia meant "I failed you, too" in a 'i know marjolaine failed you tremendously, and i am sorry i was no different" and not in a "we failed eachother, and i'm sorry for my part in it." which means she KNEW what she was doing, and doesn't even bother apologizing to leliana for being the other side of marjolaine's coin. she just dies and leliana gets little to no closure, just a too-late unsatisfactory apology from something that she has to trust was actually justinia. it just. makes me mad. leliana let me hold you baby </3

anyway my new josephine fix is that if she was sent to orlais young for marriage then it would be more fitting to the tone and stakes of the world than “finishing school”. and it would be more logical for bards to approach an isolated and dissatisfied young bride than a well-connected student carrying all her family’s hopes. her refusal to turn to violence would now have meaning as a personal sacrifice, because this version of josie would have actually had a desperate need for control over the direction of her own life, and becoming a bard would have seemed to offer that. her development of her diplomatic skills and the respect she receives from her orlesian peers would feel genuinely hard-won if she started from the underdog position of a friendless foreign wife. she should have a reputation in orlais, but i don’t think she must be or even should be an experienced international ambassador, because she’s so young for that, and it’s logical and fun for the inner circle to be the unlikely few who are willing to take the massive risk of joining the early inquisition precisely because they would never get such an opportunity otherwise. all that has to have happened is for leliana to have taken note of her abilities. and finally her “innocence in love” as leliana puts it would make a lot more sense if in inquisition she’s a recent widow (or still married, look i still think her romance should’ve let you be a real homewrecker, sue me) who simply hasn’t had a chance to be courted and previously could shelter in her unavailability and easily dismiss all comers as not having serious intentions

discovering her husband’s alive as a replacement for her getting randomly engaged would be so fun i might add that to my worldview if you don’t mind. like imagine if her actual husband shows up out of nowhere and challenges you to a duel.

[ID: two screenshots of tumblr tags reading:

1: i need to go to sleep. but she haunts me. i have so many different josephine fixes. its so interesting and easy. do you hear me bioware it wouldve been easy. also if she was a widow i would have had her husband die in the orlesian civil war making the war at all personally relevant to ur companions and also inviting thematic questions about whether it was violence that freed her in the end and what that means for her perspective. ok im done now i prommy.

2: oh this is to tasty once again i love your mind. i do think she should be widowed by the civil war except it would make the romance so much sexier if the husband's alive. solution during the romance you discover the husband is not in fact dead but just mia and idk. decide whether to tell her or not? go kill him? take her to see him because he's grievously injured and still dying? something like that. dragon age End ID]
