Rook: *sneaking in through their window after a night at the villa*

Viago: *turning in their chair and flicking the light on* You want to tell me where you've been all night?

Rook: I was out with Teia?

Teia: *turning in their chair* Wanna try again?

[crowinkwriting]

Lucanis: My Rook.

Spite: OUR Rook.

They made bodies from the earth. And the earth was afraid. It fought back. But they made it forget

"The Veil Guard didn't actually care about Rook" the Veil Guard was so desperate to get Rook back from the prison they tried to make a ritual dagger of their own to rip the Veil apart and look for them

Rook wasn't their boss, Rook was their home

Another hidden detail that you can see only with fly cam: Rook comforting Lucanis while Illario makes his "Scar speech"

Sooooo through the lovely reach of my previous cake-related DAV post (thank you for that btw!!) I have learned that not everyone knows how Lucanis' dessert romance lock-in works! So here, have a little sweet treat guide!! <3

do i, chuckles?

Taash is a bad influence on The Baby (Manfred) and Emmrich will not let that stand

[warden-anders]

i do love that the first thing lucanis does when he arrives is make a grocery list. then he cleans the kitchen, sets the table, and starts the kitchen fire. then he goes to the market and gets everyone a personalized Little Treat. then he gets his Own little treat in the form of a coffee. then he just stuffs himself into an actual cupboard and broods. he just hangs out there. in the dark. im obsessed with him. this man was imprisoned for the past year with nothing but a literal demon for company and his first instinct is to care for and feed the party. his second instinct is to be emo. iconic behavior.

My friend Lucanis is the funniest person I know.

[high-dragon-bait]

I think it's funny how Lucanis' "Rook is at low health" lines are INSTANTLY just full protect mode. Davrin just says "Get out of there idiot." Taash has one that's literally just "Rub some dirt in it" meanwhile I've known Lucanis for two seconds and he's screaming "ROOK!!!" "HELP ROOK!!!" "ROOK I'M COMING!!!!!" "HOLD ON ROOK!!!!!!"

Like, honestly… Lucanis is either deeply in love (platonic) or deeply in love (romantic) depending on your personal playthrough. He and Rook are each other’s Ride or Die partner.

Their relationship is this game’s version of my Lavellan and Dorian. They will travel the 7 circles of Hell for one another. Hurt them and Die. Defend each other to the death. Take on would-be Gods together and will either be together or are besties for LIFE.

I love you Anders but you really need to step up your game

[itseasytoremember]

Nothing will make me laugh harder than Hozier spending an entire verse of First Time being like "my life was saved by the beauty of a bouquet of flowers, do you think flowers realize they're dying once they've been cut? How cruel we are to end the life of something that spent its entire being striving for the simple joy of feeling the sun. Isn't it crazy how they give it their all, trying desperately to be alive and to, if not stave off death, then to go out with beauty and knowing you have nothing left" and then finishing the verse by going "anyways" as if he just said that to you like, in line at the grocery store

[mostmagical]

there are a lot of things that endear garrus to me, but easily it’s the way that he tells shepard about a sexual conquest with full confidence, only to get up to her room and act like he’s never touched a woman a day in his life that really sells it for me
