Writing/kiss ask meme: sormik, #9?

(For this ask meme)

Seven hundred years existed as a short time frame for some seraphim, but for one water seraph who was seven hundred and eighteen years old, it felt like the life time that it was. The weight of those centuries came from loneliness; a time of learning to live without the one person who had been a constant for his first 18 years.

“Mikleo, you okay?” the sudden voice was jarring, but that only showed in how Mikleo gripped his elbow. His eyes still locked to the bustling crowds of Ladylake’s streets.

“Yeah. Just getting caught up in my own thoughts.” When the sun had started to set Mikleo didn’t know, but that orange light creating an almost halo glow around Sorey was a sight strong enough to bring a negative spiraling mind to a halt.

Only when he realized Sorey was now mere inches from him would his mind come back. His heart beat in his ears, surely his body was trembling from each beat.

“Mik...I’ve wanted to...do this for a while...” Sorey bit his lip, eyes dropping slightly below eye level.

There was no denying that Mikleo had missed the feeling, nor denying how much he’d craved it since Sorey had woken up.

“At least this time it won’t look like you’re kissing air.” the retort was mostly to calm his own nerves enough so that he wouldn’t evaporate at the action.

Soft smiles reminiscent of days long past were exchanged before both leaned in until their lips just barely touched.

Additionally, it's interesting how fandom perspective can change. A few years ago when the game came out, people were understandably frustrated about how most of the DAI romance options had obligatory sexual content, and Josephine's was praised as one of the few that didn't make ace fans uncomfortable to play. I wonder if these anons were around to remember that discourse based on how they're going off now.

im definitely going to get around to josie’s romance after my current playthrough, given all of this. personally, im ace and i enjoy sexual aspects to a fictional romance, i just want nothing to do with it myself. i mean, if you look at my AO3, i write a ton of NSFW.

when i first did solas’s romance, i romanced him with an ace!inquisitor, knowing that not only were they an initial good fit, but there was no sex scene. aside from the fact solas was well, solas, i was a little peeved at the fandom for being like you aren’t valid if you dont accept that fem!lavellan and solas must’ve had sex

i dont even like solas but yall can fuck off with that bullshit. please just say you dont like ace people and go

@apostatively replied to your post “I think that's what bothers me the most about Solas, he assumes what's...”

I mean he's basically been confirmed for Patrick Weekes' self-insert elfsona/compared to a middle-aged college professor having identity crises and trying to hook up with co-eds, so "convinced he's the hero of the story" seems 10000% accurate.

NOOO stop I had nearly forgotten about that ‘humanities professor lul’ tweet

likening Solas to a poorly-written self-insert creep tryna get with his adoring pupils was such an unfunny self-drag

@apostatively replied to your post : “ships with power dynamics are abusive!!! if you...

Hawke has more social capital than all of their romances (save maybe Sebastian if you dig that DLC) too, as a human who becomes wealthy and celebrated in their community. Like….why are people saying that dating within the construct of a society is…..“abusive”…..idk…

"You shouldn't like this ship/character because I hate them, but since I know that's going to make me sound like the petty fucking wanker I am, I'll just use hot Social Justice words like abusive and problematic and power dynamic to make it sounds like I'm doing this for the Good Morals of Society"

When I realized I was bi my one queer friend helped me through it. I then realized I had a major crush on her and pined hard for about 6mos before learning she was going on a date, panicking and calling her from four states away and confessing. Turns out she'd liked me for ages and was trying to keep it under wraps! That was 6yrs ago. We're married now, and she's still the dreamiest, we can't go anywhere without feeling the urge to kiss her hair and hold her hand. The End, bi me.

im gonna Cry this is the sweetest shit ever omg

apostatively replied to your post “I hate the sounds Ryn makes when I have to activate the anchor. Poor...”

I feel like I should know this, but does Ryn have the British or Standard American accent?

The British! It’s so much Ryn’s voice to me that now it’s weird when I watch videos of other Inquisitors that use it, lol.

Hey slightly-tipsy Taako, have you ever transmuted yourself secretly into household animals just to screw with people? Do you have to invent awesome new personas every time like w/Dupree, or is that just icing on the cake?

okay darling look, the personas are a must MUST, just becasue you gotta sell that shit. 

And yes, I’ve turnedd into a dog before to get Magnus to follow me, but that was just because Lulu got this iead in her head to give him a surprise party and made me help.
