My Tumblr is in dire need of a complete makeover! I'm no longer writing fanfic, I just lost the steam so never finished the Trilogy. So now my page will be dedicated to my art.

The rumours are true. Well, the good ones are, anyway. Netflix is delighted and thrilled that so many of you, all over the world, have been watching and loving Sandman, which means that the thing we were all hoping would happen...? Well, it's happened...

Started a new fanfic. Hopefully I can complete it before Veilgaurd is released. /sighs/

A Place Out of Time: Revision

I’ve been working on a new story that is completely my own. It’s a large undertaking as I spent more than a year on worldbuilding alone, and trying to refashion the elves and dwarves in my fantasy work away from Tolkien as much as I can. And also to try to not allow Dragon Age things bleed into it either. Naturally there will be leanings that are Tolkien-ish and Dragon Age-ish. They’ve both played a large role in my love of high fantasy.

Anyhow I began my work as usual then hit a road block. I’ve been wanting to revise my Dragon Age fanfic I started on AO3 so I’ve pulled a copy of it for total revision. This way I can focus on something else (my fanfic in this case) until the block in my story clears up.

I'm currently working on Chapter One (formerly listed -incorrectly- as the Prologue). There will be a lot of elements taken out or minimalized, the writing style will be different, but my hope is that this will result in a better and more refined version. I love the story between my OC Rowan and Solas.

For those of you that have already read what is currently on AO3 (and are STILL waiting for Part Three’s ending) understand that it will remain up as it is. The newer version will be posted separately from the original as a new series with an alternative title. I want to allow the old one to remain, at least until this one is complete.

I truly want to do my romance story between Solas and Rowan justice.

I’ll also resume my approach I took in the past here on Tumblr: posting Chapter excerpts before they go live. I’m also considering reopening my Ko-Fi for my fanart and such.

For reference here is the link to the original on AO3:

A PLACE OUT OF TIME

Crowley is resorting to trickery to get Aziraphale to make a move

Aziraphale is me,

Crowley is @hattedhedgehog

[rowhanna]

I will always support @hattedhedgehog. His cosplays are amazing! And the mini skits are fun to watch.

Cullen has unfortunate timing.

Oh my, I feel so bad for Cully-Wully! I watched it three times laughing. Thank you for this gift! ❤️‍🔥

My updated Fenris, now with color! I got lost working on his hair. I started at 1am "just to do a little bit of work" and 7 hours flew by. It still needs work on several aspects (skin tone and shading, feature corrections, armor and the lyrium tattoos) but I LOVE the HAIR effect!

When you’re romancing Cullen and about to have fun on his desk, but he remembers there’s a war table meeting first thing in the morning.

[Video description: Commander Cullen gets backed up against a desk, grins and shoves everything from the desk onto the floor, imitating his romance cutscene in the game. He gradually looks less and less seductive and more and more distressed, glancing at his things on the floor, before he stops and  apologetically requests “sorry, would you mind terribly if we picked all that up first?”]

Real... I bet after she left he rushed about organizing EVERYTHING.

[rowhanna]

My first DA character I've ever done. Every time I draw anything I tell myself, "I'm just going to do basic outlines then move on to colors" then I get... lost. The expression had to be just right. When Fenris gives my Hawke this look she goes weak in the knees. Hopefully I can get around to adding color one day.

My story is still wanting to know when I will be done imagining and get back to writing.

[rowhanna]

I woke up far too early this morning and decided to try to flesh out the main character to my novel, Nyla. The 1st attempt is rather too meh for my liking (I haven’t drawn in ages).

After taking an hour break I went at it again focusing only on her features. The lines need to be cleaned up but I’m happy with the progress I’ve made so far.

Once I’ve captured her and am happy with it I will then begin a colorized version of Nyla.

I've been thinking a lot about queerness lately and I keep getting stuck on how deeply I want it to be normal. I want little girls to come home excitedly telling their parents about a pretty new girl in school that they have a crush on. I want young boys to have their first kiss with another boy and be able to tell their friends about it. I want them to be impressed and slap him on the back and say congrats. I want to bring home a woman to my family and have my father give her that whole fake threatening, "you better be good to my daughter" speech before offering her a handshake and a beer. I want people everywhere in the world to be able to hold hands in the street and not even think twice about it, not have to feel afraid, not have to feel like they're making a statement. I want so desperately for the world to catch up with something that so many of us already understand as normal. I don't want to be merely tolerated, and I wish pride wasn't necessary. I wish that having confidence in myself wasn't a revolutionary act.

This! This is so beautiful and we should all strive to make this a reality!

Awaken

.

Thin and pale as death, Fen’Harel emerged from his ancient tomb with all the glory of a king.

Fen’Harel? No, that name would not do. Not anymore.

Solas.

It was a name long buried in his memory, a painful memento of what was lost when he had been forcefully dragged into the Pantheon. It was old, and without weight, and it was his. He would dust it off and reclaim it as his own.

He had a name. What next?

Solas glanced down at the Foci clutched in hand. The orb was thrumming with a power that made his magic sing, but Solas wouldn’t dare to try and open it. Not yet, not when he was so physically weak. He needed something else, a conduit of some sort, a medium -

A soft snuffling noise caught his attention. He met the reverent eyes of one wolf, then another, and another, until the entire clearing by his tomb was filled with the mysterious creatures. Solas straightened, and watched. The wolves watched him in turn.

He would not focus on the crushing sadness and regret that pressed on his shoulders, an incessant weight that dragged on every breath he took. He could not change what had been done, but he could repent by making things better. He had to make things better, no matter the cost.

The Foci in his hand pulsed, and he shivered.

“Come, friends,” he rasped, his voice barely recognizable after a millennia of disuse. “I need new clothing. Then there is much work to be done.”

It could take years, or centuries, but Solas had nothing but time. Now, he needed to focus.

He needed someone to open the orb.

This is my revised Rowhanna Lavellan. I changed her hairstyle and color doing  away with the pure white and giving her a soft blonde instead. I ditched the black eyes for warmer colors of green and yellow. The final part was doing away with the black, modded dragon Vallaslin on her forehead to this Mythal one making it red.

Overall I am very pleased with this updated version of her.
