Okay, just checking because not all people check for gates before pursuing a romance. It is weird you didn't get a kiss prompt for him though - i doubt you'd have missed it since it's pretty clear. Did you flirt with him at all before the Fade/Haven dream scene? I got the prompt having only flirted with him once or twice, but maybe it won't show up if you don't? That, or his approval may not have been high enough... Only things I can think of.

 

On my first PT, I didn't flirt with Solas (edit to add: in Haven) at all BUT, I did talk to him a lot, thus rising his approval. So the only explanation I would consider here is that the fade kiss might be based on approval only.

did you tak with blackwall at all ? Did Blackwall take you to the ramparts ? Go breakup with that ninjamancer, talking with him makes you committed to his romance

 

I talk with Blackwall all the time on the ramparts before talking to Solas.  Never got locked into any kind of romance with him.

 

Edit:  And by all the time I mean in 6 (or maybe more, I'm not saying) playthroughs.

Hmmm, I see some conversation on who did/didn't drink from the Well and why.

 

I'll throw mine in.

 

My Solas-romancing Lavellan did not, both because of that one mention of it binding you to Mythal... she really didn't think it prudent to be engaging in something quite that deep... and also because when she asked Solas if he'd drink from it, his reaction decided it for her. If he didn't even wanna touch it, heck if she was going to.

 

My Dorian-romancing Lavellan, however, is totally going to drink from the Well. He's a YOLO sort anyway, but ancient elven knowledge? Oh, heck yeah!

 

Have not considered my other, non-Lavellan Inquisitors' decisions yet. Other than my Cullen-romancing Trevelyan. No way she's touching that thing. Ancient elven voo-doo? Nuh-huh, honey. She's a Templar-siding, giving-magical-things-the-side-eye type.

Interesting! I'm so NOT a flirt in real life... but always figure I have to flirt in games to start the romances. Nice to know I don't need to here (even if it means missing out on some refreshingly not cringe-worthy Haven flirtation... even still, I prefer the smart responses to the flirty ones so no real loss there).

 

Hmm... Actually, I rather like the idea of playing a Lavellan who secretly pines for Solas until that she shocks them both by impulsively kissing him. :P Might have to do that in my next playthrough.

I think it's the flirting that ninjas you. With everyone else it doesn't matter but Blackwall is clingy.

Pfft... my I WANT TO KNOW ALL THE THINGS well-drinking forbidden-magic loving mage WAS my Cullen-romancing Trevelyan. :devil:

 

Come to think of it... my Solona Amell from that worldstate was a blood mage. (Favorite move: walking bomb, followed by that crazy spell where you make people's blood boil, followed by chain lightning. Now THAT'S what you call crowd control.) Dude's got weird taste in women.

Only elves can romance Solas, so it's not like your Trevelyan has the option. :P

Yeah, I never hit a flirt option with Blackwall.  Possibly why I never got ninjamanced during the cutscene on the ramparts.

Heh. I figured the sort of "BSN natural pairing" for Cullen is with a mage Trevelyan, so I went the hipster route and made someone similar rather than "opposites attract" or "forbidden love" (as much as I usually love and go for those sorts of tropes). Mine's a sword-n-shield warrior who'll be taking the Templar specialization. Since the Trevelyan line is closely tied to the Chantry, I headcanon that she grew up sort of idolizing the Templars and wanted to be one someday, then the Conclave happened, and now here we are with her falling in love with a former Templar while becoming one herself.

 

My next Solasmancer will be opposite of my first. My first was a rogue because I usually have a thing for non-mage protective of squishy mage boyfriend pairings. I think my "canon" one may be the Knight Enchanter I have planned. I think it sort of symbolic that the First ends up choosing a specialization based on the ancient elf Arcane Warrior (not to mention the whole "protect the clan from the Dread Wolf angle of ultimate irony/hilarity). :)

This is the stupidest game.

Just played Wicked Eyes quest and made Gaspard emperor, which is exactly like I wanted, also with 100 court approval!

Anyway, at the end Solas danced with me and it was sweet then I thought about the time I danced with Cullen, and how sweet and happy that romance ended and I was dancing with Solas and I know he's gonna break her heart into little pieces but she doesn't know that and she looks happy and bah!

Stupid bald elf.

So...anybody else wish for an "OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!" option when those orlesian nobles in the great hall start talking about your upcoming nuptials directly after the breakup scene?

Honestly, I never really cared for any of the elves (romance-wise) in past DA games so, for me, choosing to romance Solas was based purely around his personality.  I had fun with Zevran, but just as a buddy.  I didn't care for Fenris, maybe because I was super pro-mage.  Anyway, Solas impressed me - I gather it was in a similar manner to how Lavellan impressed him, suddenly and unexpectedly.

 

And also the fact that he showed his tongue down her throat HNNN~

 

Same here. I adore Zev but his romance is not the type for me (but he's an awesome friend). And I'm with you regarding Fenris. I was pro-mage and played a mage and Fenris just got on my nerves. (Sorry to all Fenris fans :P) Solas really was a surprise for me. I never expected that I'd romance him when I first started playing the game. :)

 

(And yes, that Fade-tongue.... Oooh~!)

 

Same here, to all of the above. That's why that fancomic a few pages back made me laugh (and cry a little). In DAO I romanced (an unhardened) Alistair, and DA2 I did Anders, and now Solas. Apparently I suck at choices.

 

Haha! It looks like we both have the same romance options for DAO and DA2.  :lol:

 

*sigh* I don't even know if any of my PCs will have a happy ending romance-wise. Warden Alistair's status after returning to Weisshaupt is unknown; my Hawke may or may not be dead in the Fade (so Anders is left alone and might become insane again, whoops!); and I don't even know if Lavellan and Solas will ever be together again. :(

 

I could have gone for the "safer" romance options but I guess I'm just meant for sad romances. :(

 

 

You know, I love Solas. I mean I reeaaallly love Solas.

But Abelas though, gosh, just look at that fine specimen of an elf.  :wub:  I swear people make such beautiful artworks of this guy.

Solas wants to show you how he feels...*Can't stop laughing*

 

Hidden meaning?  He is tortured and in pain without you....or you cause him twisting and disturbing pain.

Did you fix your problem ?

 

Save the game right when you get to skyhold and edit it with his editor

Set your Solas approval to 120 and you will get as many kisses you want (Max. is 125)

I think it means that his mind's telling him yes but his body's saying hell ****** no, lol.

Haha you guys and Abelas! I like him too but honestly, he might be a little too much like Solas for me to want as a LI in the future. He's got that same arrogance, that same ancient vibe and somehow he's even grumpier. Based on what we know, I'm not sure he'd make a particularly warm or welcoming rebound.  :lol:

I saw some talk about why your Quizzy did/didn't drink from the well and since I haven't posted anything in a long time (too busy trying to keep up), I thought I might give my reasons. No joke about this being my first Inquisitor, she's a Dalish mage named Mythalla with Mythal's tatoos. My head canon is that her mother is extremely devoted to the gods and Mythalla followed, being particularly interested in Mythal as a mother/protector figure that she could emulate since she was the Keeper's first. She was devoted to helping and protecting everyone, even taking inspiration from Andraste as another powerful female figure. So when the opportunity came to drink out of the well she was all for it. Kind of like a dream come true and she sure as heck wasn't going to let Morrigan take a piece of her heritage. That just seemed wrong. Sure she learned things about elves and their flaws, but that didn't rattle her faith in Mythal and even seeing that she survived in Flemeth only made her faith stronger. It actually turned out kind of perfect.

 

So, anyway that's my story if people care to know.

You're not the only one.  I hope they weren't foreshadowing when Solas is commenting on Varric's book, like "So at the end, it turns out EVERYONE is someone else in disguise."

 

Meanwhile, back in Skyhold...

 

Quizzy: You guys, I'm really shaken up by the disappearance of Solas.  How could be not be who he said he was?

Blackwall: Remember, I was not actually a Warden.

Quizzy: Yeah, thanks for the reminder.  Why didn't I just execute you again?

Sera: Actually, I'm not Sera, I'm Andruil, bad-ass elven goddess, in a mortal meat suit.  

Cassandra: I'm not actually a Seeker, I just had a crush on Lucius and wanted to get close to him.  Before he turned evil, anyway.  Jerk.

Cullen: I'm not actually a Templar, and pretending to be addicted to lyrium is exhausting.  Really I'm a goatherd.  Luckily commanding soldiers is sort of like herding goats, but with more headbutting.  

Varric: I'm not actually a dwarf!  I'm just a short human, and pretending to be a dwarf makes things a lot easier.

Iron Bull: I'm not actually a qunari.  I am, in fact, a magically talking bull with an iron lung.  But the ladies swoon when they hear "Ben-Hassrath."

Cole: I'm not actually real.  You just think I am.

Dorian: I AM a Magister.  For real.  Even though I've been insisting that I'm not.

Vivienne: I'm not actually a mage, everyone is just too intimidated to notice.  

Quizzy: Leliana, you're the spymaster.  How does this keep happening?

Leliana: I'm not Leliana!  I'm actually a demon that looks like her.

Josephine: Well I am who I say I am!  Except...well...I actually am illiterate.  Don't you ever wonder why all my papers are blank?

Quizzy: Well, this explains a lot.  

 

THE SCOOBY DOO ENDING!!!!

Ah, how I have waited for it...

Aw, you know, he's just grumpy because he's so sad.  Once he finds something to be happy about I think he'll be fine.  :)

One could say the same about Solas.

 

Gosh darn that elf and his responsibilities and whatnot.
