For Pride 2024 I made some text post memes with art from my fave ships! In order:

Nora Brosca x Sigrun

Alyss Amell x Leliana

Claira Hawke x Merrill

Kyung-jae "Kieran" Tabris x Velanna

Most my OC's are disaster bi's, except Nora, she's a Distinguished Lesbian :)

OTP Fact Swap: Claira Hawke sometimes talks in her sleep which Anders finds cute but Justice/Vengeance finds incredibly alarming. The spirit is convinced she's being possessed by a demon even though she isn't a mage. The fact that she gets bad nightmares and starts yelling and tearing up doesn't help her case, but most of the time Anders is able to reign in the spirit and wake her up and hug and hum her back to sleep.

@red-wardens Most of the time? Has it ever happened that he couldn’t rein Justice in? What happened then? 

Lennan, of course, has nightmares, as any Warden does.Whenever he wakes up with a scream or a frightened gasp, his first impulse is to check his surroundings for witnesses. It’s a helpless, frightened moment, a moment when he *cannot* control his reactions - and he always feels awkward, embarrassed and exposed when a ‘You OK, Lenn?’ comes from one of his companions.And frankly, even when it doesn’t, he suspects *someone* must have heard or seen and he *hates* the feeling.

When he starts sharing the tent with Zevran, it takes some time getting used to - to *always* have someone by his side who witnesses his moments of weakness and vulnerability.But Zev’s presence is so completely devoid of any judgement that Lenn finds himself easing into the arrangement - and one night he wakes from another nightmare with a start and a yelp - and Zev just reaches for him and pulls him into an embrace, mumbles something unintelligible but undoubtedly sweet…And Lennan realizes he is completely fine with that.

She had a marvelous time ruining everything"

vampire au!

My OC’s: Vampire AU

Alyss Amell is a late 1700′s French vampire, and just, the sweetest little blood sucker; very polite, never kills her victims. Bitten at age 21 by nomad vampire Duncan to save her from dying of consumption. Pining for years over the pretty red-headed priestess with the beautiful voice who she can’t speak to because she’s always in the church at night and Alyss can’t step on hollowed ground. Leliana catches on eventually and is very endeared to the hopeless undead girl. 

Claira Hawke is Alyss’ human cousin visiting from England but ends up staying when Alyss turns. Always frantically trying to convince the town that her “sickly” cousin is very frail and that’s why she can’t leave the house and also she has tons of allergies like garlic and...crosses (”It’s the metal you see, Mayor Meredith, it just makes her skin hive up, you know, allergies.”). A terrible liar but Leliana helps her keep Alyss a secret.

Ronan Aeducan’s family is the head of a powerful modern-day (but a millennia old) coven but he fakes his own death so he doesn’t have to inherit leadership. Ends up opening a vampire-themed bar to go undercover, the goths of the town love it. He also over-pays a mortal bartender, Nora Brosca to keep his secret and be his daytime task-runner (he refuses to turn her into a vampire despite her repeated requests though). Ronan drinks animal blood since he was a vegetarian before he was a vampire and he sees this as the closest vampiric equivalent. 

Kyung-Jae “Kieran” Tabris is in the same timeline as Ronan and new to being a vampire. Got into a bad fight and could not afford medical care (cough cough guess which “first world” country he lives in) but was saved by century-old Blue Surana who had been walking home that night from the research lab she works nightshifts at. Now he’s greatly frustrated because he thinks being a vampire is so cool but none of his human college classmates believe him (”Look how pale and pretty I am now!” [”you were always pale and pretty..”] “Well look how strong I am!” [”idk you spend a lot of time at the gym dude”] “Ugh, come on! I can’t eat garlic!” [”Yeah well you’re also lactose intolerant :/”] Is invited to work at Ronan Aeducan’s vampire bar once Ronan notices that Kieran is, in fact, an actual vampire.

Blue Surana is the unofficial, unintentional coven leader of the small group of vampires that she’s either met (like Ronan Aeducan and centuries old now-phlebotomist Alyss Amell and her now-vampire wife Leliana) or turned (like Isseya Mahariel). Among others in her found-family is human vampire-hunter Cassian Cousland who she has befriended (or rather, saved, because he’d been nearly killed by a hostile vampire named Rendon Howe) whose family has protected humans from vampires for generations. He’s the first ever Cousland to befriend vampires and keep them a secret from humans and other hunters. This arrangement comes with the understanding and agreement that Blue Surana and her coven vow to not kill any human (human Nora Brosca is not thrilled about the lack of murder: “Oh come ON! Where’s the excitement in being friends with the undead if there isn’t even a littttle murder? As a treat?” [”Nora, no.”])
