Did the Warden employ any tactics to 'seduce' their LI? (aka, stuff that they did to show they were interested)

thank you for the ask!! <3

Elsanna Cousland: her LI is Alistair and honestly their relationship started pretty naturally. I think if she really did anything it was that she was relaxed with him, she'd banter with him, he could make her laugh even if she was in a bad mood or trying to be serious. She made an effort to seek him out and spend time with him in camp and she listened when he talked (him saying "i'm more used to people not really listening when i go on about things" hurts me spiritually) and took his opinions into account even if in the end she went with her gut at times instead of the opinions of those around her. Basically she let it be known and seen that he mattered to her and that she felt happy and at peace around him but there were no real grand gestures (on her end anyway, she still treasures a petal from the rose he gave her and keeps it preserved in a pendant she wears) just gifts here and there and quality time. Once they were actually in a relationship they were pretty much inseparable so he definitely knew she was serious then lol

I also think the moment she knew she could come to love him was honestly the first conversation she had with him, it was almost love at first sight for her which was extremely new for the girl who had blown off suitors for years without a second thought.

But here she was at her absolute lowest, betrayed, her family (and the man she might have fallen for before) dead and her home burned and her future uncertain but bleak.....and he made her laugh anyway. Just a little and it did make her wonder if she was losing her mind finally for a second laughing at a time like this. But there it was and it was so *nice* to feel even a sliver of emotion through the emotional numbness she'd been trapped in for months since the fall of Castle Cousland.

Anyway i love them....

Thanks again for the ask! I hope that was coherent lol

I don't know about you but my periods are long and they are heavy AF. they're bloody and look like a murder scene took place. ugh 😩

Sis I get it. Mine are irregular and inconsistent with how long they are. The first 3 days are the WORST. Like I bleed through a super plus tampon in less than 2 hours and I have to wear the massive overnight pads just so I dont bleed through. And I have to get up in the middle of the night to switch pads so I dont bleed through. They do NOT last 8-10 hours for me. It sucks. And I just feel terrible.

i HAVE to ask: what is the cullen fic with the milk

I suspected when I wrote that tag someone would 😂

It was a fic that was circling tumblr for a minute in I think early da:i release times just for the sheer ????? quality of the content

The bare minimum gist is iirc that to cure his lyrium addiction Cullen had to drink the Inquisitor's *magically enhanced* breastmilk. Also Dorian was there written as a stereotypical gbf.

It was wild idk where it even was (I think AO3?) but that sure was a time

There you have it anon, go forth burdened with this knowledge forevermore 😂

Top 5 friendships from the 4 dragon age games? (Example: Blackwall and Sera) Also, top 5 romances from all 4 da games?

oh these are gonna be tough actually, thank you for the ask!! For friendships I'm going to have to say:

Dorian and Inquisitor because "Tevinter lacks the presence of my best and only friend" makes me cry at the end of da:i every time and honestly? I enjoyed my inquisitors being Dorian's friend just as much as i enjoyed playing with an inquisitor who romanced him and Trespasser made me sob on a friendship route with him bc he was leaving (and then i just kept sobbing until long after i had finished the dlc bc in general that dlc is a punch in the heart)

Varric and Hawke of course bc they are a duo, do not separate

I know this was your example but absolutely love Sera and Blackwall

Bull and Krem or just Bull and The Chargers in general

Ok so I'm counting this even though it's a sibling relationship friendship BUT Carver and Hawke if you have Carver at max approval *especially* in the Legacy dlc

There are also quite a few that could be considered friendships or romances and i kinda lean more toward romance bc of who i am as a person like Merrill and Isabela or Sigrun and Velanna or Nathaniel and Anders.

Also honorable friendship mention: Vivienne and Bull

For romances I'm just going with the ones the pc can actually be in and not canon or fanon romances between npcs although i do adore a lot of those!! Disclaimer that i have only finished 3 of the da:v romances so far (Harding, Davrin, and Lucanis) so idk about the others yet. Anyway!

Alistair

Solas

Dorian

Harding

Zevran

I *think* that's the order and my choices but it truly depends on the day and the variety of brainrot I am experiencing. I have played every da:o, da2, and da:i romance though and thoroughly enjoyed all of them so this was actually super difficult!! <3

Honorable mention that no one ever talks about: The Wayward Bard from The Last Court

Thank you again for the ask!!

[inquisitor-julia]

Came for the dragon age, stayed for the dragon age and the OCs. Honestly though you're super chill and I enjoy seeing you on my dash- why would I unfollow that?

🥹

Honestly need to talk about my ocs more and get better at responding to stuff about them but anyway! thank you for the kind ask/answer anon!! I'm glad you're enjoying this blog!! ❤️

[inquisitor-julia]

I hope you don't mind me asking, but I'm curious as to what your top 5 favorite questlines in eso are?

I don't mind at all!! And thank you for asking!

This is kind of a tough question because it's been a while since I've played a lot of them but I'll try to recall at least the major questlines i loved

The number one questline i have played over and over *and over* is Greymoor/Markarth, basically that entire story is the reason I started playing ESO and those quests and characters have a special place in my heart! Plus I adore Fennorian and The Ravenwatch so anything involving any of them is an instant favorite! The Reach is also my favorite area in the game tbqh I just love the music and atmosphere and I do the dailies there a lot because of that

Second one I've played a lot is Rivenspire for obvious Ravenwatch reasons, my main house is also the one in Rivenspire lol

Also really enjoyed the Elsweyr dlcs because DRAGONS and I loved getting to befriend a dragon in Southern Elsweyr as well as work with the Dragonguard....I kind of want to replay these quests tbh

And then the next one to mention would be...I think Blackwood actually I liked the main quest a lot!

Annnnnd The Dark Brotherhood main questline, mostly because one of my main girls (Idreela) is involved with them in her backstory and it was fun to build on that!

Honorable mention: Summerset and also any quest involving sea elves!
