 Speaking of writing challenges, I have a tool some of you might be interested in.

http://www.scattered.../DAPrompts.html 

The Dragon Age Random Prompt Generator (the work of Cherith on Tumblr, and her husband) coughs up two characters and a keyword/phrase to work on. It can be as shippy or non-shippy as you want, and the combinations can get quite...interesting ( Ketojan/Rage Demon/magical girl AU, anyone?). I like to use it to get the brain rolling. Hopefully someone else gets a kick out of it too! :D


Gave this a whirl and got Irving and Flemeth. The phrase was "Close enough to hurt". Thanks for sharing :D
I'm going to have WAY too much fun!


I got Morrigan/ Jowan- Close Enough To Hurt. :D<3

*groan* I dunno what's gonna kill me first: the wait or this cold. WHY ARE THEY MAKING US WAIT?!?!

I feel obliged to say good luck to everybody again. Image IPB Oh! We could totally do a round robin fiction where all of us write one big fic in a series of forum posts. Image IPB

How did I end up with Sten/The Warden aphrodisiac. Hasn't this story already been told?

There's no way Sandal spent ten years in Kirkwall and didn't tap that...

Iiiiii~iiin!

EDIT: guess what just arrived. The Hunger Games books. Though the idiots threw around with spoilers and I just wanted to figure out, which one was the first book. Image IPB But noone told me the first person was a woman. Image IPB

*pat pat*

I just got the second and third books yesterday, and started reading the third today... ;)

In other news, I just had a very mild moment of panic when I saw Jessica Merizan's name next to a locked thread. Not because I thought I'd missed the winners being announced, but because I don't want this thread to be locked and I was thinking: "B-but...I didn't even get to say goodbye to everyone!" XD

Would they lock this thread because we tend to get off topic? :crying:

(Says good bye to every one as a precaution...)

Isabela/Sandal, Picking Up the Pieces of a Broken Heart.

One word....enchantment!


"So", Varric told in a pub to a couple of drunkards, "there's more than stories of Heroes and wars in me. There's room for romance." The audience cooed. "Oh yes" he proceeded "but this love story came out of sadness."

"Don't they all, friend.." the room muttered some ayes followed by heavy drinking.

"You all know Isabela, that sultry piece of a woman, Andraste protect me." Then, the room stiffened while some men sweated. "Isabela was in love with Hawke..."

"Who isn't?" sighed the waitress.

"Err, but Hawke was interested in other things, like...well, Anders the warden. I couldn't believe myself when I found out but, people, we have to respect their choices. It's progress, I think." The crowd was confused, drunk but confused.

"Isabela went for him and proposed only to be denied the poor girl. Rejected and humiliated she ran out of his room, her hair flying and her necklace almost escaping her neck, until...something happened..."

"You like the shiny?" asked a child voice.

"What?" but he didn't answer, just stared at the necklace. "Oh, this, yes. Very much. "

"It's pretty and shiny" he commented.

"Thanks Sandal" she smiled.

"SKIP THE BORING PART, YOU DWARF, MEN ARE THIRSTY HERE." the patron yelled.

"Alright, alright. Long story short. She tooka  fancy on the kid and she was a regular at Hawke's manor and when I was visiting our hero, I witnessed someting odd. The broom door was closed and noise was coming from inside. I didn't mean to pry but I did. And this is what I heard:
'Enchantment?' it was Sandal!
'Oh yes, please dwarf!'
'Enchantment!'
Isabela! Maker help me because I was hearing things, the taint on me!
I went home, cried and drank myself to sleep..."

True story!

I love you. I love that part. I'm going to play Dragon Age 2 again. *went off for Anders/mHawke romance*

I just noticed, I never played that pairing...

I never played any pairing but they hit on me like pigeon on bread crumbs!
But all in all, I am curious :D

I am playing Legacy at the moment, not bad.

What? You didn't play pairings? I'm not done with a game until I have tried every pairing option. Though I fail on becoming acouple with Merrill. I tried it several times but in the end still choose someone else.... It's not easy to romance Merrill... :unsure:

I didn't like Legacy. But I loved MoTA. :wub:

 It's great to see such positive attitudes from a lot of really great writers on this board.

With that said, as a fellow competitor I'd like to wish you all the worst, and I hope you all lose!

.......Just being honest.



*laughs* While I'm still quite proud of my story, even if it's not likely win-quality, I'm legitimately interested in seeing WHO won regardless of whether I'm on that list or not. I mean, yeah, being on that list would be killer, but it's not a be-all-end-all for me. Heck, I wasn't even planning to enter this until a day or two ahead of time.

Well sir/ma'am

I dated Merril, I didn't play pairings because I wanted Merril from day one. And got her! Had to be a real scumbag to the rest :(

We should make an anthology and publish it on Kindle market, but let's change the names first *thinks of Sten and the Warden"...


I'm having enough trouble formatting the Kindle/Nook compatible anthology for personal use that I'm trying to make. Even if it WEREN'T both illegal and douchey, I wouldn't have the energy to try and publish the damn thing, lol.

MotA I enjoyed the first time or two through, but it got old by the time I took ALL my Hawkes through it. Legacy, on the other hand, never got old. Then again, I'm a sucker for the Warden mythology.

Ah, so it's like that. I know many people who only dated Fenris, because they just couldn't not do. Fenris was my first romance (blue) in DA2 with my m!Hawke. Isabela (blue) my second with my f!Hawke. and Anders (red) my third with my mage; f!Hawke. Then I wanted to romance Merrill but ended up with... eh... Fenris (red) again... Then I decided to really do Merrill but ended up (?) with Sebastian. I will, some day really get to that pairing! Just you look and see! :wizard:

Maybe, but there are so many old threads here that have never been locked due to simply not being active.

Of course, once the winners are announced and there's a possible list of finalists there's plenty of room to keep discussing writing. :)

No, I like to make Fenris angry to the point of ... well... hit and run...

And I absolutely love Varric rivalry. It's so funny, when he slanders your name in public. Or when Isabela calls you boring, or Anders reads his manifest to you (especially if you are a mage, as well).

Fenris bored me so much. I can take Anders-level angst and drama, but Fenris elevates it to an artform. I almost thought for a while that my game was bugged and I couldn't get Varric to rival status, until I played a violent/agressive character. WOW did that change!

Back to Anders, I prefer friend-manced, but rivalry was good for a once-through as well. And Seb has to always be rivalry, even if we don't get scenes for him. I'm not doing the whole chaste thing.
