Mmm, hard to explain. We've never involved the devs in the past... and last celebration she was notified about the page prematurely, and it was an atypical celebration... which ... urgh.  Anyway. It just... feels awkward to me for many reasons, not the least of which being that I'm not keen on folks pointing "go here" signs about the thread out in the scary interwebs. 

 

So... anyway, there's my reasoning. Clear as mud, I know. 

 

Nah, then let's keep it among us ;)

 

We do have fun, that's the most important thing. I see that the Solas thread also do the Celebrations. Now I'm interested in seeing all the past celebration on this thread and on Solas'. Guess that I really need to actually go there, they seems nice too.

 

Okaaaay I know I'm crazy, but actually I already start thinking about what to make for the next Milestone celebration... since it'll take a hellishly long time for me to actually complete anything...

 

Any idea of major theme? Last time's Memory is really really good

 

Really sorry to have to bring this up, but as a person of legal age with a small frame I'd prefer if we didn't resort to these generalizations of people of small stature being physically immature or inherently less appropriately romanceable. :/ I mean, I'm not super short myself but next to someone as tall as Cullen I'd probably look pretty tiny, so...

 

Seconded. I'm short and my BF is more than a head taller than me. We do looks a bit like that  Cullen & Lady Lavellan side by side.

When I was working in secondary schools last year I regularly got mistaken for a student. Being 5'2" on a good day and very round faced means I get pegged as underage all the time, I spend forever trying to look older. My younger sister is -9- years younger than me and yet people have assumed I'm the younger sibling on a couple of occasions. My partner put a box of chocolates on top of the kitchen cupboard to annoy me and it took half an hour and some improvisation with a coat hanger to get them down :lol:

They're all great, but that first one is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah. Love the first one too.

 

That makes me cry for unknown reason. Again.

Eeep I've just spotted the Gaider news.
Shocked is the word but I think Mr Weekes is definitely the right person to hand off to, I enjoy his writing style. I can also be pretty happy in the knowledge that their secret IP is going to be in awesome hands too (just please don't make it an MMO :( I want another awesome SP franchise!)

 

It makes me sad loosing both Gaider and Hepler, I think they both have done some amazing work with DA, but I agree with you regarding Weekes. In fact, I will be very curious to see where these changes bring us in the comming games. 

 

Does anyone know who wrote Iron Bull?

Iron Bull was one of Patricks along with Cole and Solas I believe :)

LOL, it does have a sad vibe (Alistair looks like he just left Hawke in the fade). They both seem so weary..

I came to ask if you have progressed in your new fic......?

Boom!! Um, which one? Not sure if you saw it, but I recently published another Chocolate & Sex, a new Solas-Cullen, and two chapters of Fool's Errand (my Cullen-Hawke now-AU). I'm still plotting my Solas-Cullen continuation hopefully for DABB, and chugging away on Fool's Errand (*cough*ball scene*cough*). 

 

Uh, that was a LONG ASS GAME. I see I just missed 5000 pages, will go back and check it out! 

 

Also, hi everyone! So glad and not at all surprised to see this thread going strong.

Commander Kurt!!  Welcome back!

Ah, I didn't know the Solas thread was following our lead. Cool. As for a new theme, we can start brain storming, but I sure hope 6000 is still a ways out.

Gaider didn't claim Cole?? Huh, wow. But knowing this makes me feel very safe going forward, so thank you!  ^_^

So this one has got me thinking today. How do y'all think these two would interact? Do you think they knew each other? Knew of each other? Would they talk about the HoF? Or avoid it? Talk about templars or avoid it? Thoughts?

I'm sure they'd talk about all the things... even if they kept it at a superficial chat level. There's too much in common for it to be avoided without awkwardness.

I'm not sure, but I think it'd be lovely to read some fics/see some more art of different people's interpretations.
I'd like to think they knew each other, if not necessarily well.

Yup. Good good. And hopefully also with you! It sure was a long game. We see folks still trickling back in, but we've also lost a lot of folks along the way. Stay a while! :D

I can't see them getting along as adults, not from the start. Cullen is too dry and Alistair is too goofy. After a while I think they could be close as brothers, they have so very much in common and probably share the same fears and dreams in regards to their love life. But I think they would have to be forced together for it to happen. Small talk would be awkward and soon abandoned.

Well, maybe they just play really slowly..?  :) I'm going back to check out all the awesome from page 5000, I guess I'll get an idea about who is still here after that.

They have Leliana in common as a conversation topic too. I'd imagine they both know her quite well by the end of Inquisition.

That's the most important part. So long as the music plays, we must dance.

 

Have a puppy!

Something to hopefully make everyone smile and laugh. I was a little down today, but life goes on. Have some joy!

Morning. Gnaaa... I'm too old for night shifts. Will go to bed earlier today.

 

Mmm, hard to explain. We've never involved the devs in the past... and last celebration she was notified about the page prematurely, and it was an atypical celebration... which ... urgh.  Anyway. It just... feels awkward to me for many reasons, not the least of which being that I'm not keen on folks pointing "go here" signs about the thread out in the scary interwebs. 

 

So... anyway, there's my reasoning. Clear as mud, I know. 

Well, we could write her a direct message than it wouldn't be public. However, I can partly understand your reasoning and I wouldn't want that anyone feels uncomfortable. I was merely curious. And I thought that it might be nice for the writer to see that her work inspires people. Maybe we can invite her for the page 10000 celebration ;).

 

So this one has got me thinking today. How do y'all think these two would interact? Do you think they knew each other? Knew of each other? Would they talk about the HoF? Or avoid it? Talk about templars or avoid it? Thoughts?

This might depend on whether or not the HoF is still alive and if s/he is a (female) mage. I can imagine that they avoid talking about her if both of them had feelings for her and she died because it's painful. And if they have met at Kinloch Hold during the Broken Circle quest it will probably be very awkward if they meet again. But if they are not burdened with the past they will probably get along fine and have mutual respect.

 

A meeting between Alistair and Cullen was actually the topic of Thane4Forever's fanfic for the 5k celebration. I thought it was an interesting approach :).

And damn, that's a news I never expected to see. Feeling iffy about it since he's the father of my fav universe. I love all of the writers (and P.Weekes <3) but still *sadface*

Ahh, I completely forgot why I sneaked in here. What is the update that my game is trying to install? Anyone more knowledgeable? How the mods are dealing with it?

Nvm, finally dug up some of Melissa's posts.

In my world state Cullen and King Alistair would be better off not discussing Morrigan. My warden queen conveniently neglected to tell Alistair that there would be a child resulting from his night with Morrigan. I can't imagine his reaction would be too pleasant!

When I was working in secondary schools last year I regularly got mistaken for a student. Being 5'2" on a good day and very round faced means I get pegged as underage all the time, I spend forever trying to look older. My younger sister is -9- years younger than me and yet people have assumed I'm the younger sibling on a couple of occasions. My partner put a box of chocolates on top of the kitchen cupboard to annoy me and it took half an hour and some improvisation with a coat hanger to get them down :lol:

 
Aw man, I'm sorry to hear that. I actually watched one of my professors get told to her face by another professor (in front of her students, no less) that she mistook her for a student. It was a joke, of course, but it finally occurred to me why my Prof specifically told us to address her with the honorific "Dr." instead of "Miss" on the first day of class...seems like it probably happens quite often. I can't imagine it's pleasant to be compared to young students as a Ph.D with a ton of experience in the field. >_>
 

So this one has got me thinking today. How do y'all think these two would interact? Do you think they knew each other? Knew of each other? Would they talk about the HoF? Or avoid it? Talk about templars or avoid it? Thoughts?

 
Part of me likes the idea that they knew each other at some point during Templar training, but part of me also thinks it's too much of a coincidence that they'd have been sent to the same chantry in Ferelden. I also like to think Cullen is a couple of years older than Alistair at the beginning of Origins (Alistair was 20 at the time according to the timeline, I believe). But I definitely agree with meanieweenie in that it makes more sense for them to eventually get around to chatting about people they both knew, however touchy the subject might be. Alistair can be a jokester but he's also quite sensitive and considerate, and he's also likely been through a lot in the ten years since they last (potentially) met so I think Cullen would be comfortable enough with him to open up.
