So it's been about a month since I last posted in this thread I think? Anywayyy, finally getting an opportunity to replay DAI for the first time since my first run through in late November, and just seeing the menu screen makes me almost cry from the Solas heartbreak omg this stupid game. 

[Sable Rhapsody]

So I just can't get the daddy!Solas headcanon out of my head since reading those drabbles on Tumblr a few days ago.  The end result is painfully fluffy drabble.  Hopefully I can do happy feels spirals too

She wrings her hands nervously in her lap.  "You're...not angry with me for being so careless?" she asks, knowing the answer and needing to hear it anyway.

In two quick strides, Solas crosses the rotunda to where she sits on the couch.  He seizes her hands, pulls her to her feet, and tilts her face up to meet his.  His eyes are glassy, glistening, and he makes no attempt to hide it.

Nor does he hide the way his voice trembles.  "You are my love," he whispers fiercely.  "My heart.  The mother of my child."  Then he laughs, full-throated and joyous, picks her up in his arms, and spins her around as effortlessly as a leaf in a spring wind.

"I'm ecstatic," he says, the tears finally falling from his eyes.  "Oh, vhenan, I didn't know it was possible to love you more than I already did."  He puts her down and he's kissing her, gentle and fierce and tender all at once, his arms pressing her into him as though he never intends to let go.  She feels his hands run up her back, his leg braced between hers as she clings to him for dear life.

When it's over, she feels Solas's tears on her cheeks, sees her own on his.  "Well," she says, "you and I have a great deal to learn in the next seven months."

Solas laughs again, louder, and the rich sound rings off the walls of the rotunda.  "Perhaps we should begin by seeing if there are any useful books in the library," he says, gesturing overhead.  "You can horrify Dorian."

"No need for that."  Dorian's head appears over the railing above them, grinning like a loon.  "Already plenty horrified.  Congratulations, by the way.  I hope I won't be expected to babysit."

"You were the first on my list," she quips, and the expression on Dorian's face before he hurriedly disappears sends both of them into fits of laughter, clinging to each other for support.  Solas's cheeks are flushed, his eyes dancing, and in that moment, the last several thousand years never happened at all.

Ah~~ Reading this was like sipping a mug of hot chocolate on a rainy day, with a dog curled up beside you.

 

I don't think I can tease you for painful hellspirals anymore. For now, at least.

Oh great. Now I feel bad for every fantasy game I have ever played. I'm a bad, bad person. I will never be able to get into Dragon's Dogma again.

Don't worry, I'm sure I'll find a way to condemn myself again

So I was scrolling down my Twitter feed last night and a Solas fan pointed out that when you do the Sera prank quests and someone asks "Who is up there?" when you are rummaging around in Leliana's stuff...yeah, that is Solas. I can't believe I missed that. I felt a bit like a failure for not noticing it.

Wait, what? Really? I thought that was a guard

So. I was checking my quests and stumbled on that. We can see what seems to be a young man, carrying a staff, about to reach a glowing orb…

Below, the name of our mission, “What pride had wrought”, and since we know that “Solas” means pride… 

It could illustrate the moment he obtained the orb… or even Fen’Harel’s power, who knows.

I can!

I don't even remember what the hellspiral was, but I know how to run a running gag into the grave. 

 

Solas is probably very familiar with Sera pranking the tower by that point.

[jawsisinmywc]

It starts around 3:26.



It makes sense cause the rookery is connected to the rotunda where Solas is.

It still doesn't sound like Solas to me, but maybe he responds if you don't run.

 

Huh. Now I'm tempted to play along with Sera until that point just to hear him talk.

I actually screenshotted this same thing for that exact same reason week(e)s ago and then promptly forgot all about it. So annoyed that I could have brought you guys something new and made flabb hyperventilate!

I don't even know why I'm so excited, it's not like I've actually learned anything new, but still, still, to have an image of that moment, whether it's Solas taking Fen'Harel's power, or Fen'Harel obtaining his foci for the first time, it's just, it's... I don't know!

[flabbadence]

Though is it just me, or does that place look like it's underground, with a skylight way up above?

Haha, I know what you mean, I flailed a bit myself, it has to be him, hobo robe and all.

[Ajna]

Perhaps that's where he slept, those were my feelings anyway. I wonder what's under Skyhold...

[Caddius]

I could see it as part of Skyhold's water systems, or as an elven temple in a similar set-up.

However, note the moss on the structure. This suggests to me that it was a long time after it was built and its custodians lost.

A) Fen'harel awaking in the last few years, getting up to recover the Orb of Destruction and continue his mission.

Solas the village apostate coming across an artifact of the Dread Wolf many years ago, and becoming bound to him.

I'd put my money more on the former. It's a lovely picture.

[flabbadence]

[brain dump]

 

From that image, we can conclude that the orb must have been involved in the sealing of the gods, somehow.  And since some of that power transferred to the Inquisitor, the Anchor, a key... what if the orb's the only thing that can open that prison.... OR, what if the orb's the only thing keeping that prison locked, and now that it's destroyed, the prison's now falling away, and that's why Solas's on such a tight deadline? Kind of like the way his elven artifacts keep the Veil intact. What he needed from Corypheus was to renew the orb to strengthen that prison, like the way we activate the artifacts to thicken the Veil.

I totally think that is Solas. I never even thought of the opposite. I am quite shocked now (btw, I always run).

[Mariposa Diurna]

I've always wondered if the story of Fen'Harel emprisoning the gods isn't another thing the Dalish got wrong. Maybe Solas was trying to protect them from something/someone and the time to break the barriers is close. He needs to open the portals and he needs his key for it. Maybe the Dread Wolf wasn't walking the Fade hunting for prey but trying to guard his people...his fear of dying alone would make more sense if he didn't exactly chose to imprison his people and having to take care of them would make his break-up with Lavellan more meaningful.

 

I'm a bit silly.

 

edit: It sounds like Solas to me. He's right below our dear Spymaster and he's probably always a bit on edge, trying to be aware of his surroundings...makes sense he'd be more alert than others, no?

[flabbadence]

I just listened to it again on headphones, and now it does sound like Solas  . On my laptop speakers, it just sounds like some random guard on patrol

I wonder if Solas's plan with the Orb after Coryflora charges it for him is the same as his plan with Flemythal's power post-epilogue.

I think the Orb was involved in the sealing of the Creators as well. If it just required you to open up an Eluvian, the Creators were pros at that. But a foci specifically attuned to a god outside of there...I think the Creators had a lot of reasons for cutting each other off from potential power sources.
