Remember the reading short comic? Fenris receiving the letter? He sure didn't take that one well and he's on a mission now...

Cats/Love/Safety

Process and thoughts under the cut

YEEEE, I really need to prepare for the upcoming days but I’m having difficulty. Also @andersweek2025 since they mentioned wanting to also be tagged. Now then

Once again inspired by the beautiful Accursed Ones in the concept stages, as Merrill is the one to gift a cat to Anders and it’s absolutely precious. Then I considered my Warden Stellan gifting the cat. Which quickly reminded me of the line where Anders references having to bring Ser Pounce A Lot to the deep roads. So! This is them in their downtime in the deep roads together.

Now you might be curious about the how this is safety, but to me they’ve carved a small moment of safety out in the depths of evil. Also I will fight you, to me Awakening is the best example of found family in the dragon age series. They do love each other to ME.

[featherfangart]

"You could have waited inside, my dear Warden." "And where's the fun in that, huh? I thought I'd meet you halfway, save some time." "Oh, a perfect moment to waste that time now, then."

Help. I'm so deep.

People saying Cullen has the most boring romance don't understand my vision. Look guys. Bi4bi. Mean goth necromancer ex-circle mage inquisitor. The Catholic guilt. Hating each other because you don't understand each other and then finding mutual respect. After the shit he says in da2 having a blunt, filter-less woman he genuinely cares about ask him to his face if he could ever actually love her as a full person, not separate from her magic. Mr "mages aren't people" being forced to examine his own beliefs at a personal level. Having someone he cares about look him in the eye and tell him things that happened in the circle. Realizing that he participated in the same system that destroyed people's lives. That they were people who were hurt and frightened and even if he wasn't terribly cruel he turned a blind eye to those who were.

Hawke being baffled because the fucking stick up his ass knight captain from Kirkwall is with a woman who says "I think he should do it again" in regards to Anders blowing up the Chantry.

Having a romance based redemption arc like this can be tricky. It's the one time I think bioware actually succeeded in not dipping their story into misogyny. It's why I'm not a huge fan of Solas, honestly. Cullen's arc isn't "I can fix him", he's doing the work himself. He's already had some major shifts in belief at the start of the game! If you don't romance him, he seems to come to the same conclusions. Hell, he's friendlier to Dorian than half the other characters are, when you'd expect the opposite. Blackwall also has a very good romance arc! He's already on the path towards actively being a better person. A well written romance should progress alongside character development that already had roots. Solas is an asshole and he kinda just stays an asshole until his ex shames him into doing the right thing. That's an 'i can fix him' plot. If the only thing making a man not a jackass is his girlfriend, then chances are there's some misogyny steeped into that writing.

I know his VA was....Like That (and in jail, I think?)...but they really should continue Cullen's arc at least in a book. There's gotta be like a hundred dudes that sound just like him. Hell, Alistair's VA could do it.

Y'know bioware I'm only a part time student...I write, bioware. I can write you a book and whisper sweet nothings in your ear. I'll make the people clap and weep for your blond man and I'll even kill him off if you do choose. It'll be crisp and beautiful like an apple in the sun. Pspspspspspsps bioware. My only price is that I get to make him bisexual. In fact, my only price is that you simply add bi Cullen into the game. Modders did it and so can you.

updated refs for my canon Warden! 🧡

artfight writeup:

she/her, 28, dwarf rogue pinterest board Formerly a casteless dwarf from Orzammar, now Warden-Commander and the Hero of Ferelden. Has a younger sister back in Orzammar. Proud, has a huge chip on her shoulder (though it all but disappears by the end of Origins), has trust issues due to her childhood and history in the Carta. Very long red hair, always up in some kind of a bun or braid to keep it out of her way, and bright, pale, greenish eyes. Always a bit sunburned and covered with thick freckles -- her dwarven skin can't get used to the sun. Her nose has a bump, it's not straight. Burned off her casteless brand one drunken night in camp. Wears a single gold hoop earring on her left ear -- it's very important to her. _____ I don't have a faceclaim for her unfortunately. Soft, rounded features, hard expressions. She is not easily amused. Zevran is a head taller than her.

This had such an insane ugly phase I had to stop working on it for a month

[artofearendel]

The best part is he's refusing to look at Rook when he says that.

Necropolis Ball Inspo :

I’ll be forever bitter that we were ROBBED of a fancy ball at the necropolis, so here’s what Maude Ingellvar would’ve worn to the occasion (with Emmrich by her side, of course)

[braxiatel]

I don’t think romanced emmlich is going to lose himself to grief when Rook passes away but I do think he’s going to get really eccentric with how he honours them as the years go on.

Like I’m talking everyone just know that once a year Lich Lord Volkarin has a three week leave where he goes and lies perfectly still in next to Rook’s skeleton in their sarcophagus just like he would have if the two of them had been buried together. He’s fine and very obviously not dead but if you try to talk to him he will not answer because that goes against the spirit of the thing.

It’s definitely weird in a way that makes you wonder if someone should maybe consider inventing therapy in Thedas but ultimately it is a harmless coping mechanism so they just let him keep at it. One year some of his students come to “mourn” him and leave some flowers at “his” and Rook’s grave he is genuinely moved by the gesture.

[merrinla]

Sometimes it seems to me that after the game they wanted to show villain stand-ups. I don't know how else to explain these.

Elgar'nan?

That did not go as planned. I had such high hopes. I would lay the blame at Fen'Harel's feet. As usual. His plans never work out, so he insists on no one else's plans working out. He wouldn't even leave my designs for my temple alone. Structurally unsound, he said. "What's holding up the top fifty floors?" Magic. Obviously. "What if someone falls off?" (Groans) I don't care, Solas. Elves can fly. "What do you mean, elves can't fly?" The Venatori were also disappointing, I have to say. Ten percent dogma, ninety percent chanting, zero percent execution. Excellent footwear, though. I swiped this fur-lined slouchy boot for slumping around the kitchen. So cozy. No. Ghilan'nain's not to blame. She's still torn up about Andruil. I know it's been a thousand years, but that's eternal love for you. Touching, really. I'd shed a tear, but the plumbing's been blight-clogged for centuries.
