That moment on tearstone when you give Lucanis the dagger to go after Ghilan'nain and the scene ends with Rook just giving him this look of approval... like not even love or anything like that just approval as they hand off the dagger like they've been doing since Weisshaupt... I think I huave covid...
This concept art of Lucanis has taken over my life because of that mask. I wish we could have seen him in a mask. Cora would be on the floor crying sobbing screaming throwing up if he ever walked around wearing that.
Forget shirtless, forget corsets, forget capes. *This* is the thing that would give her a nosebleed.

More under the cut:
5 year age gap
That half an inch is very important to Lucanis
Lucanis falls in love gradually and deeply, Cora hits a wall and breaks her nose
She does not know what her sexuality is exactly and I don't know either. She's never had any time or motivation to figure it out and at this point it's probably just 'someone that can kill me if they need to'.
The affection score is that low not because they don't like being affectionate with each other but rather because they will act like they don't know each other whenever there is even a hint of anyone being close enough to see them together.
Cora is extremely jealous. Lucanis is less so but not much better.
I'm not even going to talk about attachment or emotion because they're velcro dogs who cry after sex.
Both of them fall slowly and unintentionally I just think Lucanis is a little closer to love at first sight.
Cora is big on touch and time both for receiving and for giving. Words of affirmation is also a big one but saved for special occasions because they both get too emotional. I don't think she minds doing things for Lucanis but that's just not as meaningful for her as sitting together or spending time with each other.
Just like Lucanis thinks taking some stuff off her plate to make her day easier is more meaningful than simply spending time together, even though he loves that.
I think once they admit their feelings touch is a big one, though. I think both of them find expressing exactly what they feel very difficult but a hug is easy. Or holding hands or touching knees.
Lucanis is somehow a better sleeper than Cora?
The only thing either of them like more than starting a stupid fight is apologizing after.
Neither of them read conspiracies but Cora is the one who still believes in the Maker so
Sue me but I don't think Lucanis is that punctual! He got away with ignoring Caterina's summons to Antiva so I'm assuming he also got away with 5 minutes extra sleep! If he's on time it's because he wants to be. Also abides strictly by fashionable lateness. On the other hand Cora has had to be punctual her whole life. Circle first then Leliana.
Idk they're very similar. I didn't realise how similar until filling this out.
