Thats pretty cool!
And thanks guys! Didn't realise there was another thread so we got shut down, I had checked announcements then went to feedback, in my rush i didn't check scuttlebutt. >.<
Yeah... Went to post there but it was closed. Sent my hippy love vibes to the other thread instead (complete with soothing ocean gif). OH Yeah 
You asked for it.
I can show you his headShining, shimmering, splendid.Tell me, Inquisitor, when didYou spy such a vibrant gleam?He can open your mind.Show you the greyer places.Reveal each of these casesFar more complex than they seem.A whole new styleA warm practical kind of suitAnd I never knewYou don't need shoesIf you only plan on dreaming.A whole new styleHis tight grey pants and naught a bootWith his mind afarAnd tiny scarIt'd be a lie to say he isn't cute.
So, I just walked into the room with my Kittens to find them singing this version of the song from memory. Too FREAKIN ADORABLE!

Awwww! 
Wow, almost 300 pages again? Meaning in combination with the old thread, we would have been at 600+. That's awesome 
*patiently waiting for page 300*
Oh wow I didn't even notice that. 
(I think that's what happens when you come from the Cullen thread. )
*patiently waiting for page 300*
Woo! Let's get to page 300!
Here's some lovely fanart to help!

I love Solas' furs, but I wonder if he had to kill some of those cute fox things to get some of them... I guess I'll just headcanon that Thedas has fake fur available.
All aboard dat Solass train!!!
Let this thread ride it to page 300 
I'll make a post so we can make it to lucky page 300. But first let me just say I'm sorry for this. Wonder if hedge mages think grass is greener on the other side. Just had a cute tought of Solas and Cole playing hide and seek.

Solas: So, one person closes their eyes and counts to ten, and the rest hide. After the first person gets to ten, they have to try and find everyone else.
Cole: Oh. I understand. Do you think we can play?
Solas: I don't see why not. *covers eyes* Ready? One, two, three....
FIVE HOURS LATER
Solas: Cole? Cole, this isn't fun anymore!
Soooo since the delay, I'm thinking about upgrading my gaming console. I currently have xbox 360. I'm thinking of getting PS4 white destiny bundle. Decisions decisions. I've been waiting to upgrade consoles.
I really like my PS4, but I haven't actually seen an XBoxOne, besides the display consoles in the stores.
So... apparently they're making Chibis over in the Varric thread... I made a Solas one!
Because that logo I'm supposed to working on is totally going to make itself...

Oh hey, this looks kinda neat!
[TWENTY MINUTES LATER]
HEY GUYS I MADE ONE. 
Have been listening to the Lady Insanity interview with David Gaider. I don't know if this has already been discussed but I picked up on the fact that it is not just Solas' clothing that would come in for ridicule from Vivienne and Dorian. Apparently trained mages like them tend to look down on self taught hedge mages like Solas because they "have ruined their gift" or something to that effect through not learning to do it the "right" way. That should certainly lead to some interest conversations between the three of them; I beginning to get the idea of when the delayed reaction insult is likely to be used by him. As someone who is almost as fond of mages as I am of elves, I am so looking forward to these conversations.

I never thought of it that context, but you're right! Both Vivienne and Dorian would give Solas hell for being a hedge mage. Oh man, the debates! ...Well, "debates" is probably the wrong word. The mockery and the sly comebacks! We could learn so much about the magic lore. That's exciting!

They better be careful and not too heavy-handed with that, if that's true, or I'm going to end up not too fond of either Dorian or Vivienne

This reminds me of when I started school and my teachers were upset that I had taught myself to read. Because that meant I learned by memory instead of phonetics, and apparently that was a bad thing and they believed it would cause me difficulties. But it didn't hinder me going forward whatsoever. I imagine Solas is also very much in the camp of "whatever works".
One of my favorite things about Solas is his 'hedge mage' status. I am really looking forward to his perspective and his knowledge which sounds like it will not only be unique but will also challenge many long held beliefs. It also sounds like he does it without the need to yell or crusade but more as a teacher.
I mean, we have been inundated with circle and templar politics. Circle mages are often thought of as repressed freedom fighters but we really haven't heard from mages outside the system. It will be interesting to see their own prejudices and not so nice attitudes come to light. Kind of like the dalish/city elves differences. I know we had Morrigan who was taught by Flemith and talked a little bit but her agenda was more about returning the old gods. Hawke was trained by her father who was also circle trained.
So yes, I suspect the Vivienne/Dorien/Solas dynamic will be interesting. While I have no doubt Solas will be able to hold his own and not need my interference, I hope they aren't overly obnoxious about it or I may be tempted to feed them to the next dragon we find! Or more accurately, I'll just leave them behind at the keep all the time so as not to deal with it 
Who here gets the feeling that Solas will do a "sten" If Dorian tries to come on to him? Vivienne I see more as the one to somewhat condescending and maybe occasionally be mockingly polite. Dorian seems like he would just be that friend who would takes friendly shoots and jibs at everyone. Maybe Solas and Cole will team up and try to shave Dorian's stache in his sleep.

DORIAN: Did you put him up to it?
SOLAS: [DISTANTLY] Hmmm?
DORIAN: Last night I awoke to the strangest feeling of someone touching my mustache.
SOLAS: Perhaps a sign you worry about your looks too much?
DORIAN: I don't need a dream interpretation. Someone was touching my face last night. I know this because when I woke up my shaving knife fell onto my pillow.
SOLAS: [CLEARS THROAT]
DORIAN: Nearly stabbed me in the eye.
SOLAS: That's... interesting.
DORIAN: Tell him if he tries it again, I'll bind him to a stuffed animal.

Yes! I want Solas's perspective on everything. I suppose you could say that Morrigan had this perspective, but mostly she was played up as the Evil Companion, and thus most of her outsider's perspective was lost in the, "JUST LET THAT CHILD STARVE WARDEN." (No hate: I love Morrigan.) So I'm curious how a more neutral and friendly perspective will help us see Thedas.
And, yes. I hope that a party of Vivienne, Dorian, and Solas is far more palatable than bringing Anders, Merrill, and Fenris. Man that was a rough ride. But it sounds like Dorian is probably going to be friendly, if snarky, and Solas sounds like he can hold his own. Vivienne... eh, she's gonna be mean to everyone, I think.
