Fenris, Y U B SO SMOOTH?
Did anybody else click him like a bazillion times to get him to say the romance dialogue?
"Hawke."
"Hawke."
"Hawke."
"Hawke stop poking me."
"*sigh* Fine. I remain at your side."
No? Just me?

Ahem.
"I am yours." - Fenris
People might just feel comfortable here. It's not like you can discuss the elves or the Dalish in the rest of the public forum without it going down in a blaze, and I think a lot of people find this to be a safe place where they can share their love of elven mysteries, the city elves, the Dalish, or a myriad of other elven facets with people who might relate to them. Different people have attracted Solas - people who, like me, befriended him as a pro-Dalish Lavellan, or the multitude of others who romanced him and saw a very different, more intimate side to him.
Oh yeah, that wasn't meant to be an insult. I'm totally cool with whatever - I'll just ignore it if i'm un-interested or have nothing to add. i didn't realize it was that bad to talk about game lore outside of this thread or a private group. so bizarre. why even bother visiting a game's forums if you don't want to talk about the game?(me musing to myself because i really have never engaged in a game forums before this except in vanilla wow when i would need rare crafted stuff).

That's a rivalmance...or non-mance, I guess.
When on his friend side of the meter, his more general response is "yes, my friend?"
And of course there's "I enjoy following you" in addition to what I posted above. ![]()

I saw this headcanon on Tumblr and it was beautiful, so I must share!
"When standing close together, Lavellan’s fingers always seek out the wolf jawbone Solas wears. She holds it delicately in her fingers, memorizes the feel of it during their conversations, and ensures the leather cord remains tightly tied. And always, she lets it go with a regrettable sigh.
Solas is not sure what to think of this little ritual she does, but he is nervous. She does not know the truth is, literally, in her hands.
One day, he lifts it over his head and, to her surprise, puts it around her neck. Lavellan is quiet as she gazes down at his fingers as he gingerly places the talisman over her heart. He steps back and looks at her, wondering if he will see what she sees - a different perspective, perhaps, will give him clarity.
But she smiles brightly, reaches into her under armor, and pulls out her own charm: a piece of a halla’s horn that was shed from an elder halla upon his death. The carvings were still as brilliant as the day they were etched, intricate and flowing. Lavellan mimicked Solas’ actions, tying the cord around his neck as he stood, frozen and baffled.
"Feel the weight that I carry as I feel yours," she says, pressing her charm into his chest. "And if ever you need peace from your burden, share it with me as I have shared mine with you."
In that moment Solas was truly, and undeniably happy." "

Ah, I see. I've only ever done the Fenris rivalmance, so I thought that was him being his normal grumpy self.
Maybe some artworks to lighten the mood?
The Sailorquisition! Solas as Tuxedo Mask! (And Bull as... Sailor Moon?) xD
The rest of the Inquisition is under the spoiler tag due to size. ENJOY!
Spoiler
If Solas is tuxedo mask and iron bull is sailor moon, would that mean solas rides the bull?

Wish something like that happened in the game. Just imagine Solas giving his wolf jaw necklace to a Lavellan he is in a romance with...*sigh* ![]()
I've run across several people outside the BSN now who have said they've decided to stay away from the Solas thread now because of that kind of stuff. The whole arguing for the sake of arguing, and others being dismissive of those who want the environment to stay welcoming. This thread doesn't feel anywhere near as friendly as it used to for me. That's probably why I haven't been keeping up with it like I was. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.
*pokes head in the chat*
Has it been unwelcoming for you? Gods, I must be frequenting a cesspool outside of here because this is my favorite thread for the opposite reason. People are pretty civil and outright friendly and the few times when people get a bit sensitive it calms down pretty quick. Maybe it's because I don't take what people say on the internet that seriously.
This place has been a Solas stronghold and compared to other BSN threads stays mostly on topic and pretty welcoming to theoricrafters and the like. My opinion though. I pop in a few times a day but I prefer to read people's discussions most of the time.

It would be funny if they actually got irritated with you. Reminds me of this.
Wait, people are leaving the thread? What happened while I was gone? What did I miss? Did crap go down? Are we migrating to the south for the winter?
Here, have a kitty gif. I promise things will be fine.

I was in need of happy thoughts, and I'm thinking of posting more of those for peeps who need them too.
I love the romances, but I do love small moments like these that could have happened - but I'm also glad we can have our headcanons.

This is beautiful... And reminds me of a rather similar scene I headcanoned. Sort of.
It didn't occur to me until later that that weird face jewelry Solas wore at the winter palace was probably a graphics glitch. It seems he was meant to wear an Orlesian mask under that silly hat, which strangely adds to his character and explains his behavior at the Winter Palace. He's playing the Game by passing himself off as "the Inquisitor's elven manservant," knowing that nobles will behave more naturally around him than they would if they knew he was someone of consequence. He physically and metaphorically hides who he is behind a mask, and he relishes the disguise. In a way, I feel he acts closer to how he truly is because he feels more free hiding behind the front. (And, you know, trickster god.)
After he asks the Inquisitor to dance during the balcony scene, I sometimes headcanon that after a bit of romantic dancing she gently removes his mask so she can see his eye, which makes him a little nervous at first (since he'd grown to love hiding behind the disguise), but then he adjusts to it, and they look deeply into each other's eyes and smile and all that romantic mush. Tender romantic moment that heightens their emotional bond, since she symbolically looked past his mask, which he has not let anyone do in a long, long time.
Yay symbolism, and the ways it can be used to convey deeper emotional intimacy! ![]()

I HATE lightning!

LOL awesome timing on the screenie. **** you, Thor.

Two things give me a heart attack every time they happen: Sera firing her arrow with directions, and lightning.
I was just messing around and no joke my IQ jumps on the rock and BOOM! That...I can't....and then Cullen made her go from badass/cute to full on derp...the screenshots...I can't.
I've been having a weird glitch all night where if I use leaping shot, even on a perfectly flat surface, my elf lady bounces 2 or 3 times the distance she is supposed to go. Or she'll go straight up and then take fall damage without actually going laterally. Or she will go the correct distance, but end up in the air instead of taking a normal arc. She's kicked Solas in the face a few times doing that I think.
Hooray! Moon physics!
Solas: *grumbles* This is what I get for dumping her.
Mierin: *evil smile*
