Shocking in regards to the main story. Cullen's romance ends on a happy note, lol.
oh good, that makes me happy ![]()

Yeah if you don't mind the slight romance spoiler, Cullen's romance ends on a very happily ever after note. No one dies, or burns down a Chantry, or is forced to have sex with the shady witch.
Isn't it nice to get a happy ending for a change?
Of course DLC could change everything, and we might be forced to kill Cullen in the next game or something, but at least for now we got a good send off.
Stay far far away from ending spoilers, though, as the last leg of the game is best experienced if you go unspoiled. It's really worth saving the final twists to see for yourself.
I am glad to hear that. I loved the Alistair romance, but it was a bit strange convincing him to sleep with Morrigan... And Anders was so sweet, but yea we all know what happened.
I have been able to stay away from any main story spoilers thus far, so I am looking forward to seeing how everything plays out.
lol That artist draws a real bear of an inquisitor!!

Being an introvert myself, that's exactly how I feel.
This is why I sympathize so much with the Commander. It's like staring into a mirror, acknowledging all the faults.
I'm unable to act naturally and show my true feelings for someone until I become used to them.
Spontaneity only surfaces after trust's been established.
Most people just lose their patience, though, and think I'm cold, insensitive, snobbish or arrogant.
And then, I torture myself, trying to find a way to show them how I truly feel.
But it's difficult. The natural reaction of an introvert is: Think first, act later.
People think introverts do this on purpose, but it's out of their hands.
No wonder Cullen is always apologising for his stuck-in-the-mud, shy behaviour. He's aware of this peculiarity in himself, but can't change who he is.
I totally feel you. I'm the same way around new people, and I don't talk much to those I don't feel comfortable with irl until I've scoped them out first. But of course if they approach me themselves I am as friendly and welcoming as can be, because I appreciate that they've taken the time to try to get to know me. It's sometimes hard to balance your introversion with your need to connect, because it's not like we hate people - we just need to feel somewhat safe first. It's definitely why Cullen's character resonates with me so much as well. I'm not prudish irl either, but I simply don't feel comfortable joking in a sexual manner with people unless I trust them enough to not come onto me or misunderstand my jokes as an invitation, etc.
I'm told by my closest friends that I can be quite talkative and animated, actually. Loud, even. And I very much appreciate my friends who are extroverted who took the time to understand where I was coming from ![]()
LOL Naw, no need. It's in my ff.n faves! Took me two seconds... Cullen archiving superpower notwithstanding.
OMG! I never read that one before! So good! *sniff*

His Inquisitor's name is Colton, "Col" for short.

Whhhhhyyyy? I think this might be the best thing I have ever seen. ![]()

I'm an introvert. I'm terrible with new people- either I click with you and can talk to you, or you'll get an indefinite period of polite shyness whilst I size you up and gradually build confidence. The people I can talk to would never believe I'm an introvert, because when I feel safe I'm loud, animated and have a really dirty sense of humour. The problem I have is sustaining it for more than a couple of hours at a time- at parties I will go stand outside/spend inordinate amounts of time in the bathroom/make excuses and go talk to the cat so that I can get some downtime and recharge. If I can't do that it goes downhill pretty fast.I totally feel you.

Yeah my Quizzy is much less introverted than I am IRL - I am definitely more of a 'Cullen' that way. So I totally 'get' his reactions to things, and I love how you watch him go from all-business and flustered to being able to share his emotions and personal thoughts with you. It's not that he didn't like you before, he just...keeps himself to himself. Add in any anxiety (which I would imagine Cullen has some of, given his history) and you have a recipe for constant 'he/she is angry, they don't like me, I shouldn't say/do anything because I will be obnoxious'. I hate parties mostly because I hate myself at parties, I always feel like I'm laughing too loudly and talking too much and oversharing to try to get people to like me. I always say I'm much better in writing...if the internet hadn't been invented I would probably have been single forever. ><
Edit: apologies for multiposting! Must remember to multiquote instead.
One more for the road:
by the same artist as the previous two
Dat Alistair.
I do have a soft spot for Cullen (obviously!) but I think Alistair is my one true digital love...
So far I've plaid through the Cullen romance, the Solas one and I'm in the process of completing the Dorian romance. I'm skipping through the game since I'm not worried about "side questing" too much. I'll wait until mods come out and I can make my inquisitor exactly the way I want her before I go really in depth in 100% completion.
Cute! So long as he loves Quizzy more than those turrets. ![]()

I wouldn't consider myself an introvert, more... reserved person.
I was a total extrovert as a kid, fully out there, no reservations what so ever. But sh!t happens and after a few bad experience, I became more cautious.
I'm definitely am not an extrovert now.
It does take me awhile to warm up to people and even then I can say I really only have close friends and the rest are just acquaintances or "others".
With parties, I do stress a lot about who I am going to talk to esp if it's one of my friends parties (because I've never been one to hang with the same social circle all the time). I usually run through my head over & over again about who I can talk to and usually feel somewhat out of place unless I really like a person and find it easy to chat to them. When it's a party where I know someone's going to feel like that, I usually make extra effort for their sakes because I know how it feels.
I probably don't consider myself introvert because in public situations I still won't tolerate certain behaviours & have in past step in even when it involved the police (but that could just be having a moral compass *shrug* lol).
I think for me it's more to do with my OCD/anxiety issues.
Personality theories are great and coming from a psychology stand point fun to explore. I'm more of a recovered introvert, haha. By that I mean I used to want to talk, but was caught up in what people would perceive of me by doing so, which made me come off as very apathetic. Either way, I was able to see past what others might think of me and now I hardly ever shut up (in all situations).
Although, I'm a bit gray when it comes to being exclusively introvert or extrovert. I'm great with one-on-one conversations and tune out in group settings. Honestly, I always found snags in the black and white approach to many theories of personality.
On subject of DA I always related and sympathized more with Alistair as I tend to be overly talkative, awkward, and have more crappy one liners than I should when it comes to talking to men I find attractive. That's probably what's keeping Cullen a few steps behind BW 1st place romance.
Anyways, since I've missed the past few days I hope you all are doing well!
Also I made a Thranduil!
Spoilered for those not interested and size.
Holy sh- I just found a haunted house in the game.
Seriously creepy place, feels like I'm playing a horror game like Amnesia.
Weird/awesome how when you think you've seen everything there is to be seen in the game, something new creeps up on you like that.
Ok, so I was running through some old scenes with flycam and got this shot. It is totally one of my favorites so far. Ravenna looks so unbelievably possessive:
