You best hope Solas isn't out dream-walking or a heavy sleeper, because if the Inquisitor has to get up in a jiffy there's going to be problems.

Cassandra: You do realize you have a sleeping elf stuck to you?

Inquisitor: Solas can get a little...clingy at night. At first it was cute, now I can't seem to wake him up without having Blackwall or Bull trying to pry him off.

 

YES! Now I'm giggling at the strange mental image of my Qunari Inquisitor just walking around Skyhold with Solas attached to her. She's just like "he's stronger than he looks".

 

Also, I've been thinking about how fulfilling a romance plotline would be with Solas's character type. It would be so awesome to be what tethers him to the real world, since he seems to have spent so much time with Fade-related things consuming his mind.

 

I'm also finally reading Asunder, since I have some spare time, and I can tell that Solas and Cole's relationship is going to be cute. Oh yes.

Patrick Weekes said that Solas is paradoxically devoted to finding "the truth" and believing in myth at the same time. Perhaps he's searching for something in all of those ruins he explores? Perhaps his theme is a Billy Joel song?

It really doesn't help that Kenneth Branagh looked like a blonde Dorian in Hamlet.

I would put this on the Dorian thread, but they would rip me apart. Man is he hot!

Gaaah, now you have me wondering.

 

The fact that his food is scotch bonnet candy makes me think he'll be blunt, but I also expect him to be utterly unprepared to recognize flirting for what it is.

 

(WARNING: SCHMOOPY NONESENSE AHEAD. IT'S LATE HERE I SHOULD SLEEP SOON.)

 

INQUISITOR: So, I was wondering...

SOLAS: About what? Did you want me to look at your hand again?

INQUISITOR: That's alright. This more... personal than that.

SOLAS: ... More personal than your hand.

INQUISITOR: [BLUSHES] A different kind of personal.

SOLAS: [FROWNS]

INQUISITOR: [SIGHS] Did you want to get dinner with me?

SOLAS: Is it that time already? I could have sworn we had a few more hours...

INQUISITOR: No! I mean, yes, we do, but--

SOLAS: Are you hungry now? Do the cooks serve meals before their allotted times?

INQUISITOR: I want to have a private dinner with you.

SOLAS: [BLINKING] I--what?

INQUISITOR: [FACEPALM] A date, Solas. I'm asking you out on the closest thing to a date we can do while in Skyhold.

SOLAS: [MORE BLINKING] A date?

INQUISITOR: Yes or no, Solas.

SOLAS: I--um--yes! I mean, of course, I'd... I'd love to have a private dinner-date with you.

INQUISITOR: [RELIEVED SIGH] Great! [STARTS WALKING BACKWARDS TOWARD DOOR] Meet me in my quarters at dinner time! [BUMPS INTO DESK] [HITS ELBOW ON DOORFRAME] [STUMBLES OUT OF THE ROOM] No take-backs!

SOLAS: [SHAKING HIS HEAD] [SOFTLY] I couldn't dream of it.

*adorable snip*

 

Never, ever be ashamed of schmoopy nonsense! This is adorable and I also can imagine Solas being a little block-headed when it comes to someone flirting with him or being romantically interested in him. In my experience, the most intelligent people can sometimes be the most oblivious when it comes to little, common sense things. It's like their brains are too jam-packed to recognize simple things every now and then  :D

Inquisitor> I'm really interested in your perception of the Fade, Solas.  From what you've told me, you see things I've never seen before.  It makes me very curious--I'd like to know what it is you see when you're dreaming in the Fade.

Solas> Would you like to sleep with me sometime?

Inquisitor> ...Well, that's forward of you.

Solas> I'm sorry, Inquisitor.  That didn't come out right.

Inquisitor> It sounded like you're feeling a bit amorous.

Solas> I only thought we could visit the Fade together sometime.  Nothing more than that.

Inquisitor>  I see.  Well, I'd love to explore the Fade with you sometime.  Sounds like fun.

(The Inquisitor stands up and walks away.)

Solas> (mumbling) ... Unless you wanted to do more than that, of course...

(The Inquisitor does not hear him.)

LI or not, I REALLY hope Solas says this to the Inquisitor at some point. Plausible AND hilarious.

You know, one of the biggest reasons I want Solas to be an LI, is the Inquisitor can call him the man of his/her dreams--literally.  Surely the dev team thought of this... Hopefully.  It would make so much sense...

 

I'm still not holding my breath for it, of course.  Mostly I've come to a point where I don't care.  If Solas isn't available, I'll just play a celibate Inquisitor my first run or two.

I'm really optimistic about Solas being an LI right now. I feel like he's got less reason not to be than Blackwall or Varric. We'll have to wait and see, of course, but I'm feeling really good about Vivienne and Solas as both bi options.

Aside from finding out who the last love interests are (/crosses fingers and toes on Solas being one of two), I'm really REALLY excited to see more of those behind the scenes voice actor/ actress things. I really really like them! It would be so exciting if every companions/advisor had one! Ahhhh, but perhaps that's wishful thinking. Still, I feel excited when the VA feels excited for the character! Or at least see the emotion behind them reading lines and yeaahhh! I'd like to see how Gareth David-Lloyd feels about Solas but... hm... I'm not sure if he's feeling it to be honest. (Then again, I'm one of those people who still is feeling a disconnect between Solas and the VA chosen, even though he could be changing his voice for Solas like FPjr for Iron Bull.) But who knows! There's always room to be pleasantly surprised.

Heh... This reminds me of something that happened to me a few years back... An acquaintance of mine asked me if I wanted to get coffee and I said "no," thinking why would I want a coffee this late, how the hell would I sleep? An hour later it dawned on me...  :lol: I'm terrible at flirting... I usually end up taking the direct approach because my attempts at being coy either come across as creepy or are apparently so subtle no one knows what it means.

Yay optimism!  Trying very hard to cling to it now... Not just about Solas being an LI, but the hope that we'll finally find out already... Because if he's not, I am prepared! (I've got ice cream, vodka, and a slew of raunchy Cullen fanfic with my name on it... Bring it, Bioware!)

I know, I get so excited when I learn who the voice actors are.. but then I get nervous!  I'm sure everyone will be fantastic (can't think of any companion VA that wasn't), but I'd love to hear them all the same.  Plus, I love all that behind-the-scenes stuff, especially when it comes to creating the characters.

I don't want to put too much of a damper on things but I was trying to think of a plot/story reason why Solas wouldn't be a LI and it occurred to me, might he feel that having an emotional relationship with someone might interfere with his connection to the Fade?      Everything we know about the Fade and spirits suggests that emotions are strongly connected to our interaction with it.    Solas has a unique connection because he had no preconceived notions about the Fade or Fade creatures, so came to it without the fear that might normally attract less savoury inhabitants.   

 

So whilst I'm not saying this would rule out a relationship entirely, it might make him reluctant or wary to consider one, even if the thought ever crossed his mind.     This would mean that you'd have to coax him gently into a romance and he would probably be a very sensitive, gentle partner.     Of course the ultimate experience might well cross the Fade, so you experience it there rather than in the material world.   Sort of transcendental sex.    That would certainly be different.

I second that it would indeed be adorable for some flirting to go completely over Solas' head.

If I remember correctly, in SWTOR this would happen several times when flirting with Vector :wub:  I though it was extremely cute, and one of the reasons why he was my favourite romance in that game, and one of my favourites of all time!

Had another dream last night about a Solas LI announcement, only to wake up to the disappointment that my subconscious deems it natural and right to torment me.

 

Please, bust out the news so my unconscious weirdness can go manifest itself in other ways. :P

 

 

Definitely. Sometimes I feel like Vivienne might not even be an LI, with the comments about how it isn't evenly distributed and about how they don't want to make every single woman in a game accessible? I mean you can't romance Leliana and Morrigan but I'd think that would have been a given because of DA:O. A part of me wants her to be, but then another just thinks, "Vivienne is too good and powerful for me" LOL. She's the queen.

Idek anymore, to be honest. :lol: As long as Solas is one of the last ones and I can romance him as a human or elven female, I'm good man. I'm good. Trying not to think about the writer distribution thing and stuff.

 

My mind has been pondering this as well, about Vivienne not necessarily being a lock. One, because of them saying something along the lines of distribution not necessarily being even or "fair" or whatnot (I may be bumbling that up as I can't remember the direct quote) and two, because I think it was maybe Mike Laidlaw who said, in regards to not being able to romance everybody, "some companions just don't have time for your business". That sort of comment instantly made me think of Vivienne, to be honest, although I suppose it could definitely apply to Solas (doesn't have time for your non-Fade-related business) or Varric (doesn't have time for your business because he's eternally set on Bianca 'til his dying days).

I want this with hot, burning passion, yes. Awkward/adorkable is just so very fun and attractive to me.  <3

Any of the companions could logically not have time for your business. They're a pretty busy group. You could have just as easily said Cassandra or Dorian "don't have time for your business" and it would be perfectly believable. So, I think it was a completely vague statement that you can't read much into. I've seen it said a couple times that gender/sexuality distribution is the main priority, so I'll honestly be shocked if we don't get a bi male and female to fill out the ranks. I could possible see two more guys if they originally planned all three race gated characters for the male side, but I personally think it's unlikely as compared to the 2/4/2 set up with even genders.

What would be the level of frustration if, over twitter, they stared announcing, one-by-one, people who weren't LI's. Starting with, like, Cole, then Leliana, then...

 

The panel isn't until Friday. They could fit all four non-LI's in.  :lol: Can you imagine the panic in this place? It'd be like the reverse lottery.

I would hope they at least wouldn't do Leliana and Cole, since they've already officially stated they wouldn't be LIs. At least start with the people that are still up for speculation. lol

Come now, that wouldn't be near enough fan tears!  :lol: They'd totally start with Leliana. Or, hey! Morrigan! Then Leliana, then Cole, then not-LI-#1. Then, at the panel, they'd actually announce the two who were LI's. That would get this place buzzing again.

I've actually started watching Torchwood from the first series. Merril and Solas working to save the Earth from alien invasions. :D

 

I must admit I never hoped more for the bisexual elves trope to be true than nowadays.
