Take solace in the shadows, for this is where the hearts of villains & broken souls are revealed.

90 8k Resolution Upscaled + Edited Arcane Season 2 Wallpapers - download link

‼️ DO NOT DIRECTLY SAVE THESE FROM TUMBLR ‼️ The photos on Tumblr are compressed. They're not in full 8k. Please view and download them from Mega.nz instead. Download Link: (HERE)

Some more details:

If the download link is not accessible on mobile, use your desktop/laptop to access them.

These resolutions are in 8k. I know they're overkill, but it's upscaled so that you yourself can crop them out and do whatever you want with them. Desktop BG, mobile BG, etc. up to you with what you want to do with them

Reminder that the upscaler is NOT PERFECT, but it does its best. This is all upscaled from the original 1080p stills, with very minimal edits.

If I have time, I will do batch 2.

Enjoy!

Perfect.

Thought I'd share a few fics I've been enjoying over the Christmas holidays. I'm sure they will warm your heart (and perhaps other things...) and provide sustenance to those looking to delve into a world where this pairing is made possible. Enjoy the food and be sure to give the authors some love along the way.

if i'm not DISGUSTINGLY in love with at least one (1) of the characters in any given piece of media it is not for me. if i have no one to crawl and weep for? can't get into it. if there is not one single character that makes me want to bash my head through a wall and then write ten thousand (fictional or academic) words about them then what is the point. respectfully

[vision-catalyst]

This. Exactly this!

Snippets from my "slowmance" with the Demon of Vyrantium.

I may still be a little bitter about that one time I almost wasted away in a fade prison without ever being kissed....

A few moments from my initial playthrough of DA: TV. While I can't say that this iteration lived up to my expectations or was what I had hoped for, there were at least a few moments that tugged and twisted and wrought themselves upon the little ice cube buried in my chest.

If nothing else, the world is so beautifully crafted, I could (and did) waste away the hours just taking photos. Enjoy the ultrawide experience. I certainly did.

It's not Dragon Age but it's beautiful, dark, emotional, melancholic and bittersweet. Power, corruption, exploitation, fate, war, love, loss, sacrifice... Replaying while I wait and am reminded of how much I truly enjoyed everything about this installment in the Final Fantasy anthology series.

Do you know what I could really go for right now? A Veilguard pre-launch character creator release a la Dragon's Dogma 2. Just putting that thought out into the universe.... Don't ask, don't get.

The time I would waste in creating my Rook(s) alone might be enough to get me all the way to Halloween. I know I'm not the only meticulous weirdo who occasionally enjoys this part more than what might be considered "normal".

I wonder how much of my BG3 playtime in Steam was spent on the character creator. Actually, it's probably better not knowing the answer to that....

Drawing parallels...

I have no doubt that the similarities between Emet-Selch/Hades from FFXIV and Solas from Dragon Age and their overall storylines have been written about long before now, but every time I think about them, I feel compelled to put it to paper.

I suppose it should come as no surprise that these two are my most loved fictional characters, with Emet-Selch probably coming out on top. They are so similar, in fact, one must wonder if the writers exchanged notes or cheated off each other's papers. They're both named Solas/Solus even...

Because no one asked, and for no other reason than I felt like it:

I think what I'm REALLY trying to say is... I miss Emet-Selch.

And I really need Solas to fill void...

Figures, a new Dragon Age game is on the horizon, a new love interest…

…and my ex from the last one is lurking in my head.

I knew he wouldn’t truly abandon me 💜

I hope Mr. Dellamorte’s cool with weird threesomes.

Glad I'm not alone in this...

I need a solavellan reunion, yes, but I also need solavellan meeting each other for the first time again.

It’s been an entire decade.

Give me solavellan not meeting each other as elvhen apostate and dalish hostage but as the Dread Wolf and the Inquisitor.

Give me solavellan meeting each other again on the other sides of their own apotheosis, free of pretense and masks.

Give me, “Is he still the man who hates tea, the curious man who wonders at the mundane beauties of life, the gentle man who supported a grieving spirit, the silly man who set his own coattails on fire, the loving man who called me his heart?”

Give me, “Is she still woman who surprised me at every turn, the strong woman who faced a would-be god so that others would be spared, the cunning woman who made an entire empire dance to her tune, the compassionate woman who would go out of her way to help the hurting, the open-minded woman who hadn’t scorned an outside view, the loving woman who vowed time and time again to protect me, the woman who changed everything?”

Give me solavellan meeting each other the first time again after 10 years and realize that, yes, you are still my vhenan.

[vision-catalyst]

This... All of this...

woe, new solas screenshots upon ye

[vision-catalyst]

It's my birthday today and I may very well be too old to still harbour such feelings for a fictional character, but I have zero fucks left to give and a hot elven god to obsess over. .... don't look at me!
