Thedas Needs More Pirates

#Jarv gives better back rubs than I do #strong hands there aaayyyy #Maraas Adaar #Jarvaazim #(thank you glad to be back lol)

I have been out of the loop like WHOA, how's my favorite mercenary Maraas doing? Does he need a back rub? Cause I'm guessing it's still bad!

Maraas: Ha! You guessed correctly. I’ll just go lie down and wait for that back rub, yeah?

oceans-bleed-black

Jarvaazim: ... A’ight, fine. Come here, ya lazy bastard. I’ll give ye a back rub. *cracks knuckles*

Omg all those prompts are so good 0_0 *wheezes* Okay, snowball fight in Skyhold's courtyard (include as many chars as you want) combined with either “we were playing in the snow and you suddenly tackled me to the ground and now…we’re just…staring… at each other…” or "PULLING YOU IN FOR A KISS WITH A SCARF", with Maraazim maybe?? >3> Hope you get your muse back soon <3

Well, here it is! Apologies if this is riddled with mistakes; it is 1am and I do not have any energy left to edit u_u

~2500 words. Featuring Hanin Lavellan, The Dawn Squad, Jarvaazim (@taerellavellan’s OC) and Maraas Adaar. Most under the cut <3

It was a rare thing, for the soldiers of the Inquisition tofind a few moments to just relax. Unwind. Breathe.The snow fell softly from a marble sky, decorating hats and the shouldersof coats, dusting its way across every signpost and steeple. There wassomething picturesque about winter. It froze the world in more ways than one;gave people longer to enjoy it.

So, as one might imagine, the sound of cursing and delightedsquealing came as something of a shock to Hanin.

Grumbling, he snapped his quill down against the table, hisreport barely a third finished and already overdue by more days than he caredto count. He had tried ignoring it, and it had worked for a time, but now thenoise had swelled to the point of inexcusable. And right outside his window. So, tugging on his coat and marching downthe stairs from his quarters, Hanin mulled darkly over what he would say.Terse, strict, and scathing. Their lack of duty did not give them leave todisrupt the work of others. He would set them to cleaning out the stables if hehad to, just to get a moment’s peace. He would—

Hanin threw open the door, teeth clenched, jaw stiff withirritation… then blinked in surprise as a blonde blur rocketed past him,laughing brightly until he copped a ball of snow to the face. He stumbled andfell with a fwump into the snow… thenwas up again almost immediately, grinning broadly, cheeks flushed, nose red,remnants of powdery snow falling from his freckled face as he began franticallypreparing his counter-attack.

“Ha! Got you!” Ralon whooped, white teeth flashing againstdark skin, another snowball already in hand. He tossed it up lazily, catchingit again and losing almost half the snow in the process of showing off. “Who’snext, huh? Who dares to challenge me, Ralon, King of the—OOOF!”

This is the first thing that popped in my head when I saw that ask lol. And as per usual when I doodle impromptu Silly Stuff, I have zero regrets. XD

Sorry Maraas, dude’s in zombie mode right now. He didn’t do it on purpose lol. GO TO BED, JARV and stop using your handsome boyfriend as a coat rack!

#Jarvaazim #Maraas Adaar #Maraazim #reblog #mental note to self to doodle them napping like that one day #big beefy qunari cuddling up #sign me up <3 #fics for me

“Hey, woah there, Jarv. You look like you’re about t—”

At first, Maraas thought he was going to cop a fist in the face, the way the pirate raised his hand. But when his vision went black, it was certainly not due to a whallop. The flash of indignation that had begun to well up in his chest faded away, replaced by a moment of stomach-dropping bewilderment, followed quickly by…

… well, just regular bewilderment.

Worth It

A sneaky little fic for @taerellavellan, featuring her handsome pirate Jarvaazim and my Maraas Adaar! Also contains a brief cameo from Hanin >.>

Approx 2200 words, most under the cut <3

Maraas snorted as he watched Hanin reel back, turning away from his opponent, his free hand going to his eyes in a sharp, indignant gesture born of shock and irritation. A cloud of dirt still hung conspicuously in the air like a bad thief taking too long to snatch the trinkets off a shopkeeper’s table. Beneath the cloud, bare-chested and gleaming with sweat, crouched Jarvaazim. He wore his favourite accessory proudly on his face; a shit-eating grin. The red paint across his eyes and lining his chin gave off the vague impression of a skull. Well, from a distance. If Maraas tilted his head. And squinted. Which he did, determined to prove his own theory, but was sadly left unsatisfied.

From out on the training field some heated words were exchanged between the pair of sparring men, Hanin furiously blinking out the grit that had been so unceremoniously tossed at his face, Jarvaazim dusting off his hands in an aloof yet threatening manner that suggested he would happily do it again. Maraas watched, amused, as the pair got closer to each other, their simmering disagreement slowly beginning to boil into a full-blown argument, and wondered how long it would take for them to either kill each other or hire someone clandestine to do the job for them.

Hell, maybe they’ll hire me, he mused, fingers thrumming absently against the outer fence of the training field. Although that would be pretty awkward, all things considered, with Hanin being a buddy of his current employer and Jarvaazim being… well...

Maraas was clever in a sense. He’d positioned himself close enough to observe the two fighting men, but far enough away to avoid the attentions of some of the more eagre recruits that dotted the field, practicing forms or sparring for themselves. However, his distance was not proving conducive to eavesdropping, and seeing the colour rising to Hanin’s face at Jarvaazim’s seeming dismissal of his grievances was simply too much for Maraas to resist. With a put-upon sigh, he levered himself off the fence then hopped over it with ease. It had not, after all, been constructed with a nearly seven foot Vashoth in mind. It was like stepping over a chair.

Unfortunately, Maraas’ expedition into the dust-churning sea of practicing soldiers was for nought. He had barely taken a few steps into the training field before Hanin turned and stalked away, stiff-backed and royally pissed off. Jarvaazim watched the elven warrior go, arms folded across his chest, a strange mixture of satisfaction and frustration mingling on his handsome face. Whatever their argument had been, Jarvaazim had come out on top, but something about the whole experience had proven, well, off-putting. It was like winning a prize, but he prize was an old pair of smalls from an anonymous benefactor. Sure, you still won, but it wasn’t exactly a satisfying victory.

The pic I used for the header of my blog. Background is a stock photo with some filters slapped over it.

Quite happy with how he came out though. <333

#qunari #dragon age inquisition #dai #pirate #companion oc #booty art #Jarvaazim #pirates yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay #Thedas needs more pirates

Up to date ref as of December 2017 <3 He didn’t change much compared to his old ref, I added some more jewelry (rings and sharktooth necklace), refined the accessoires in his hair because the way I used to draw them was incredibly lazy and lengthened his sash.

I don’t think he will undergo anymore changes, I’m pretty satisfied with his design and if I add more it’s just gonna take me even longer to draw him lol. MUST RESIST.

SO YEAH, YAY! I’m happy with this. ^___^

Jarvaazim makes my knees weak. Holy shit. Can I join the crew!?

“HA! Well then, if ye need a strong body t’ lean against t’ keep you on your feet, I volunteer, hehe! In all seriousness though, if you really want t’ join my crew you’re welcome to. All I expect from you is tha’ you pull your own weight as much as you’re able to. This isna an ‘everyone for themselves‘ kinda deal, we look out after one another. Big happy family we are! Oh and uh… ye probably shouldna be squeamish about stuff either. It’s a rough life out at sea, you get t’ see some shit, ye ken? So if you think ye can handle it, welcome aboard.“

(yes I’m still alive lol and yes, I still check this blog everyday. I’m just… very distracted with other fandoms lol. But I do miss my boys, Jarv in particular. Actually!! Thank you for this ask, anon, because now my fingers are itching to draw him again. <333)

#jarvaazim #jarv replies #booty art #blood

@antimana LOOK AT WHAT YOU MADE ME DO YOU MADE ME HURT MY SON- actually no, I have no regrets. I’m with Klassar on this one. XD Good man. Good taste. 10/10

I promise you he’s flattered lol, and a little surprised, most people don’t say such things XD

Tbh I feel like a dwarf could handle Jarvaazim better than a human XD

“Eh. Possibly. I’ve never actually attempted it with a dwarf to be perfectly honest with ye. Which is almost a shame because I know a certain dwarf who could use a good dickin’. It might shut him up for a while.”

Jaarvazim, Klassar, and The Iron Bull standing around a training dummy, exchanging rope work techniques.

HOLY HELL YES I’m all for this! XDDDD

(that’s one hell of a threesome dayum <3 I can’t help it my mind goes straight down into the gutter lol XD)

#Jarvaazim #jarv replies

So...just asking for a friend...what type is Jaarvazim into...?

“For starters, I’m a guys-only kinda guy. Secondly, other qunari and humans only. The thing is, I dinna want t’ have t’ worry about hurtin’ anyone, ‘kay? I’m a big guy and I play rough. That’s why I avoid elves and dwarves. Nothin’ personal, just preference, and I’m not budgin’ on that.

Other than tha’, I’m not too picky.”

Hi boys!! I'm here today to ask some... potentially awful questions. Number 1. If you were going to be turned into a werewolf or a vampire, which one would you choise? Number 2. How well would you handle it? Number 3. If you got turned into the one you didn't want, how would you handle it?

Taerel: “… what the hell kind of question is that?? How about neither? No? Fine… I wouldn’t want to turn into some mindless furry beast so, vampire I guess?

No clue how I would handle it, considering it’s never going to happen. The whole… human blood drinking thing, it’s not very alluring. Can a vampire survive on animal blood? Is that uh… healthy? That would work, right? I’d do that. I don’t like the idea of not being able to go outside during the day though, so I dunno.

And if I got turned into a werewolf anyway, I’d probably launch myself off a cliff first chance I got.“

Jarvaazim: “What have you been smokin’, lass?

‘Kay, so. If the choice were up t’ me, I’d go wolf, on the condition I get t’ stay in control. Can’t afford to attack my crew in a mindless rage once a month.

But yeah, wolf. I could pull that off verra well I think. I would make it work t’ my advantage somehow.

If it were the other one, it would suck, no pun intended. I like the sun, thank ye verra much. Wouldna be happy t’ miss out on that. But I’d still make it work somehow. The whole blood suckin’ thing definitely wouldna bother me anyway.“

47 and 50

47: How do they act in a formal occasion? What do they think of black tie wear? Do they enjoy fancy parties and love to chit chat or loathe the whole event?

The loathing is strong here. Taerel hates fancy parties and official gatherings in which he has to be on his best. It wouldn’t be so bad if he could just watch from the sidelines - he doesn’t mind the dressing up part, or the overabundance of delicious food that comes with there events - but unfortunately he has to mingle, get involved, talk to people and play his part appropriately. He’ll smile, he’ll be pleasant and polite and show interest, he took a lot of lessons with Josephine for this, but he doesn’t like it at all, and if he has a chance to take a breather and scoot his butt over to his friends he’ll do so immediately.

And dances are the worst. XD

Jarvaazim doesn’t care much for the fancy stuff either but he doesn’t hate it. Nor will he try to fit in, good manners aren’t really part of his repertoire. He’ll wear the outfit though good luck convincing him to take off the bandana, piercings and vitaar, but he won’t bother to try and be better than he is. He won’t fit in at all and he’s fine with that, and if people have a problem with him being there, they can either tell him so in his face, or if they’re too cowardly to do so, suck it up and shut up about it. None of that sneaky behind-his-back stuff. If he notices anyone whispering and gossiping from a distance, he’ll confront them about it. None of that shit, yo.

All the food and alcohol is a definite bonus though.

50: If they could only take one bag of stuff somewhere with them: what would they pack? What do they consider their essentials?

(haha I suck at these sort of questions and they’d probably carry more than what I can think of atm)

For both, food that keeps, a small money pouch, a med kit, a knife, a blanket, some spare pieces of leather and cloth for mending purposes, a lengthy piece of rope, a waterbag, a cup, a small iron pot to cook in, stuff to write with, and things needed to clean their weapons with and to keep them in good condition (a rag, polishing oil etcetera).

Jarvaazim would also have a flint and steel (cuz no magic), some kind of alcoholic drink and a small spy glass.

Taerel would also carry a small book with him to pass the time with, and he always has the small wooden figurine of June on his person wherever he goes, for its emotional value.

Pretend I didn’t forget some obvious stuff they should probably have as well XD

Well personally, hot stuff, I think you'd look good in a dark red color, like blood or burgundy... Or white, perhaps. But black leather, hmmm... I see a black leather 'dragon' hood, dangerous, mysterious, incorporating those nice horns of yours. For your torso... I'm a bit torn as to weather I should recommend a 'chest plate' of leather, going from right under your jawline down to your hips, accessorized with bracers, or leave your chest bare and encase your arms instead, because your (Cont.)

“HA! That’s a verra nice imagination you have there! I like it. And there’s a reason why I dinna wear buttons on my coat, friend. Indeed, I’m not verra interested in covering this up.

It’s entirely too bad tha’ so much leather isna verra practical in my situation: I spend most o’ my time out in the hot Northern sun, and leather chafes somethin’ horrible when it gets damp underneath. And yeah, my situation is different at the moment, but even so. The goods need room t’ breathe, ye ken?

Still, I definitely like the imagery you provided.

And also, that is where you’re wrong. I most definitely do humans, but only when they meet certain requirements.

Thank ye kindly for the message though, it’s nice t’ be appreciated.“
