alternatively tell me how often morrigan and ffion argue and what about (also happy birthday 🥳)

(Ty!! this was stuck in my drafts sorry 😭😭) During the blight, Morrigan and Ffion don't really argue. They see eye-to-eye on most, if not all, matters. Ffion has always looked externally for moral guidance (first with Adaia and then Shianni) so his 19 yr old brain is like: the cool smart girl is probably right. The most they argue is when Ffion tries to tell Morrigan he loves her and Morrigan is like 😨 cut that shit out rn and ffion's like "yes m'lady ☺️"

Their first argument probably is when Morrigan tells him about the ritual. Ffion was willing to let Alistair take the fall so the argument of saving him isn't as effective. Like really he would be doing the ritual for Alistair's sake. In the moment, I think Ffion's just freaking out because he had been so driven to see this through and run away with Morrigan, so he's just bewildered and upset. Ffion does eventually agree to the ritual because he doesn't want Morrigan to be mad at him & (secretly) expects her to change her mind.

Post-WH, their relationship starts afresh with both of them having had gone through a lot of maturing. Part of this maturing is Ffion recognising Morrigan as a flawed human, she can be wrong about things. They argue about the typical petty shit that couples argue about, but they both roll over pretty quickly. Their bigger arguments are usually Ffion's over-protectiveness (for Morrigan and Kieran) clashing with Morrigan's hyper-independence. I gotta work out how the whole Morrigan becoming the court magical advisor thing plays out between them because Ffion would be wary, to say the least. Another thing that sparks arguments is Ffion's black-and-white thinking. When you're in your 20s and still in the honeymoon phase, your boyfriend leaping to kill someone for looking at you wrong is sexy. It does, however, get a bit old the hundredth time around, especially when you're trying to navigate court politics.

this is such an awesome ask bc it reminded me i have a draft sitting in my files of ffion rocking up at skyhold and finding out about Morrigan saying that Kieran would be better off without her and freaking out about it. heres some scrappy outlines of that

#awesome ask. i loooove arguments <3 #the subtext is just ffion's adaia issues vs. morrigan's flemeth issues #morrigan's go to impulse is to dismiss/belittle. especially if the other person is coming at her with genuine concern #for ffion to have an actual discussion he's gotta insist on the point to break through Morrigan's supposed nonchalance #whereas for morrigan its easier to get ffion to start a discussion however to get him to change his mind on something is harder #by the skyhold argument there is a lot of trust built between the two #enough so they can be really mad/upset with each other but ultimately they're still life partners #at some point id like to write an argument way earlier in their relationship to compare..#asks #ffiorigan

share your favorite moments for each of your canon romances in all the dragon age games

tagged by @thewardenisonthecase months and months ago 😭

ffion & morrigan: A lot of their relationship orbits around just sharing space quietly, little moments like Morrigan reading while Ffion braids her hair. Okay actually that said. I do really love the moment where Ffion gives Morrigan the golden mirror and she's so touched by it but surely he expects something from her? Surely there's some ulterior motive? but Ffion so earnestly says he is gifting it to her because he likes her and believes she deserves it. He saw it and thought of that story she had told him (That was months ago, he remembered that?). And quietly he adds that "If it doesn't offend you, it is only right a lady such as yourself should get to see her own beauty". Morrigan thanks him and he nods and wishes her goodnight. Leaving Morrigan with the dawning realisation that for all their shared cynicism and Ffion's standoffish posturing, he is at heart a romantic who may genuinely want to treat her well, if she lets him. <- what a terrifying thought!!

hawke & merrill/isabela/anders/fenris: look I could do an individual moment for each. but in truth, i do really like post-arishok battle after Hawke gets their shit rocked and is inches away from dying. All four LI having a "oh shit, he's going to die" moment alongside all their issues colliding into each other. Isabela's guilt over putting Hawke in this position, Fenris's guilt for setting up the duel and his fear that he won't get to clear things up with Hawke, Merrill using blood magic to keep Hawke alive (knowing that blood magic has become a sensitive topic post-all that remains), and Anders' rushing in to heal him only to find that healing isn't working (magesbane) and now all the pressure on him to sew Hawke's abdomen back together, all of the trauma from losing Karl simmering. I like this moment for two reasons 1. incredibly rare everyone working together moment (literally holding Hawke's pieces in place and fenris/anders' looking the other way w/ merrill's blood magic). 2. it's also a major turning point in all of the relationships, for better and for worse!

ira & dorian: oughgh. Balcony scene; Ira is exhausted, he's over stimulated and barely capable of words. When Dorian finds him, Ira just collapses in his arms. They do end up dancing but it's more so swaying while Dorian hums, rubbing Ira's back softly as Ira buries his head in Dorian's neck, using Dorian to ground himself. I don't have a big write-up on this, I think it's just a cute supportive moment.

mikhal & lucanis: ok. my fave moment is their joint "realisation moment". Their "oh no this is real" moment but it hitting them in inverse ways. For Mikhal, it's realising his attraction to Lucanis is more than just physical. For Lucanis it's being hit with attraction to another person for the first time in years. Leading up to this Mikhal has just written off whatever he is feeling for lucanis as purely sexual. Which is fine, because he's slept with friends before, it means nothing to him. It's just sex who cares. Meanwhile, Lucanis has been caught up in all the other shit he has going on to really process that his new best friend might be flirting with him, he flirts with everyone, that's just Rook. He cares deeply for Rook because Rook is his friend who saved his life. Simple.

Post-weisshaupt, Mikhal and Lucanis are sitting together in the kitchen late at night. Mikhal's drinking expired ale in an attempt to knock himself out, Lucanis is still in the dumps. They're going back and forth and Mikhal's doing impressions of Spite which makes Lucanis laugh hard. Mikhal's hit with a wave of adoration. But as Lucanis laughs he bumps the table, knocking over a cup and they both reach for it resulting in Mikhal grabbing Lucanis' wrist and they both just... freeze. Then Mikhal's like AH-I-think-that-ale-is-hitting, i'm-going-to-bed-goodnight-lucanis-bye. Mikhal lies in bed like "That was weird. Well anyway I just want to fuck him." <- guy who is about to fall asleep thinking about how nice it'd be to hold his friend's hand. Meanwhile Lucanis is still sitting at the kitchen table, head in hands with Spite yelling in his ear LUCANIS WHY IS YOUR PENIS DOING THAT??!?!
