The Solas baby-daddy 'thing' is kind of intriguing to me.  I've already got kids, and I'll be the first to tell someone that romanticizes children that they're nuts...but I have to admit that the idea of Solas and Lavellan having a child has at least a bit of merit.  Solas is desperately alone and also (self) cut off from making relationships with anyone that tries to get close to him.  I see a child as a good way to bring him the connections that he needs to relate to the world he lives in now.  

 

I'm rambling.  Basically I think it's super cute and that's normally the opposite of how I feel about these painful romances.

Oh, her Solas is great. It looks like him, but retains her distinctive style. Plus the hint of pink on the ears. 

[Avejajed]

Drunkish dragon age is funnn

[procutemeister]

Here I Dream I Was An Architect also reminds me of Solas: video

 

And I am nothing of a builder

But here I dreamt I was an architect

And I built this balustrade

To keep you home, to keep you safe

From the outside world

But the angles and the corners

Even though my work is unparalleled

They never seemed to meet

The structure fell about our feet

And we were free to go

So I finished my Perfect Run for Optimistic DLC Hopes Fem!Lavellan.

 

And guess what?

 

Second time round the Solas break up was totally fine. It was totally not hurtful. Totally easy going. Totally...Totally.. fine.

This pain in my chest is totally just gas, and that is totally just dust in my eyes.

 

"You were right to be angry. I hope, in time, you will understand"

Spoiler

 

Niamh took the break up super well. Super.

 

I thought the anger would help make me feel better. But ohh no. No no no. Solas just killed it with his sad face. 

 

 

Damn it, Solas. Just. Damn it.

 

To make this post less depressing - here are some less sad things.

 

Starting with: Drinking from the Well. Hearing Solas calling out "Inquisitor! Inquisitor!" and seeing the love of her life come running to her side...

 

Spoiler

 

Yeah. Dorian. It was Dorian who came running. Even when he's riding the Bull he still cares more. SCREW YOU SOLAS.

 

 

 

I almost choked to death on the fruit sweet I was eating when Varric went and pulled this face..

Spoiler

 

and I discovered the secret of why my Lavellan really had that Vallaslin. It was to make her nose look smaller. Good grief I was not prepared for how weird she'd look without it.

Spoiler

 

And I shall leave you with my two favourite comments from the after-party:

 

Quizzy: There are a few parts I wouldn't mind forgetting

Cole: All right

Quizzy: Cole! wait!

Cole: *laughs* It was a joke. You like those, sometimes

 

Dorian: What would you do without me?

Quizzy: How will I ever know unless you go?

Dorian: Ah, clever. See? I keep your wits sharp

 

So long Niamh Lavellan. It's been fun. May there be many a DLC to come for you~

Cassandra shipping Solavellan is totally canon and no one can ever convince me otherwise.

 

Except Cassandra never expresses any sort of opinion on any relationship period outside of a handful of lines in the Sera and Blackwall Romance that could at best be taken as warning for them not to harm the Inquisitor. ._.

 

So leave Cassandra's shipping to the fictional characters in Varric's novels, you are likely to actually get more of a reaction.

 

Its actually sort of amusing that people would think Cassandra would support romancing a being that its increasingly likely will have to be killed, I guess it would make for a decent tragic romance...but that doesn't really seem like Cassandra's bag, she seems to like more passionate, happier endings.

 

Not beheading your lover when he tries to do the exact same thing that some ancient darkspawn nutter that you also killed, just tried to do a week ago.

But what if her shipping it is the proof that it will get a happy ending? Cassandra knows, people!

My contribution to this holiday, written while waiting for my hair dye to set:

 

Galfridus Chauceres Advice Upon Love:

 

Spoiler

 

Galfridus Chauceres Advice Upon Love:

 

For the swoteness of Maye is not yet upon us, yet yn this moneth ther ys a holiday that has been around synce ancient tymes. Actually, Ich was the fyrst to pen upon thys day. Not to bragge. Enyway, ye can read it yf ye are not vulgar.

 

So, Ich found myself walking in a faire garden—yt was a byt uncouth but they tried—in a stronge-holde. Ich thinke it was called forth to holde up yon skkye, or something fanciful. Gentil folke lyke that sort of thynge. Manye gentils did wander that gardyn and wonder what myn advice on love would be. This is because Ich am truly a wyse man and knew somewat of poetrye and somewat of lore. Actually, whan Ich saye “somewat” I mean a lot. Lyke have you heard of myn lyttle bok on Canterburye, yf not, go to the pillorye nearest.

 

I muchel relishe the gyvyng of advice:

 

I.

Inquisitor, Ich must thenke thee for the twoe large wheeles of chese from Orlais. But Orlais chese does not agree wyth myn sence of honour. Ich dide gyve them to a hariy manne from the barne, he looked like he was yn need of some chese. Why ys he there? Enyway, Ich just hopen that myn advice wil helpe in the wooing of the faire and stronge ladye Cassandra.

 

Now fyrst, wat is the meaning of your newfangled fashion? Gentil and wyse ladies do not lyke beige nyght clothes. Get thee to a craftye tailor. Beige ys not the colour of passione.

 

Ich know that ye must spende dayes in killing thynges and yn games of violence. Ye must shew her youre strengethe.

 

Wat? She oftentimes must pycke yow uppe off the flor? Fyghten togeder. Or, maybe, take her to a spot of muchel romance a lette her slaye som bears.

 

Do ye playe upon the lute? Ye can singe swete ballads to her.

 

No. Wat are ye a savage? Well, Ich guesse yow can read to her some poetrye. Perhaps, Dante. Ladies love Dante. Dante can gyt yt. Ask Beatrice. Yt ys knowen.

 

Ladies also loven for faire knyghtes to quest.

 

Yow venture upon many a queste?

 

That manye?

 

Perhaps spyce up your questynge wyth more bears to slaye. Perhaps gyants? Naughty gyants?

 

Well, thys was myn advice. Ich hopen that thys was somwat helpful in your queste to woo the fayre, fresshe ladye.

 

Bonus: Lynes of Pick-uppe Written for the Balde Elf.

 

“Are ye an anciente Elvhen treatise? Bycause Ich would love to translate ye into the vernacular.”

 

“Do ye lyke thys castle? How about these battlements? Ye want to scale myn battlements, perchance?”

 

“Do ye want to came to myn room and see myn scrolls?”

 

“Ich am indeed a mage of muchel magic. But myn coattails are not the only thynges Ich can set on fyre.”

 

 

This is glorious.

 

I know this has been mentioned before, but It's really weird how many comments/the underlying theme of DA:I seems to be challenging your interpretation of godhood/how everything in the main-story line seems to point at how *large* your inquisitor is becoming. And Corphygish's comment about who'd make a better god at the end.

 

Just thinking on that since I finished my third playthrough. Really hope we get to play as the Inky again sometime. 

 

I am so not ready to let go of the Inquisitor. Personally, I'd happily play an Inquisition sequel, starring Our Worship. I know not everyone feels this way, but I definitely can't help but feel her story is not over. Though I don't know how much of that feeling can be chalked up to the whole Solas-breaking-her-heart-and-fleeing-without-a-word thing, but there you go.

 

The Solas baby-daddy 'thing' is kind of intriguing to me.  I've already got kids, and I'll be the first to tell someone that romanticizes children that they're nuts...but I have to admit that the idea of Solas and Lavellan having a child has at least a bit of merit.  Solas is desperately alone and also (self) cut off from making relationships with anyone that tries to get close to him.  I see a child as a good way to bring him the connections that he needs to relate to the world he lives in now.  

 

I'm rambling.  Basically I think it's super cute and that's normally the opposite of how I feel about these painful romances.  

 

This is an interesting perspective. I don't have any kids, so thanks for sharing.

[TanisLave]

I always picture A Solas/Lav kid as a adult, and thinking they'd be some pseudo-god person, sort of like Morrigan. Who's mysterious and knows **** and knows the best and the worst of the Dalish and Elvhen.

Well, for my anime/manga, I sometimes have a tendency to ship crack pairings that have no chance of ever happening, so yeah...., (I mean, I shipped Ulquiorra x Orihime in Bleach ^^; ). However, I shall continue to have faith in the chance for a happy ending for Solavellan....until Bioware stomps on those dreams and grinds them into the ground and then buries them for good measure. LOL.

The weirdest thing I ship is Hound/Sansa. And I'm pretty sure that ain't goin no where.

That sounds cool actually.

 

If I headcanon kids (or a kid) I usually just pick a gender and a name, maybe once in awhile a general idea of how they look. For Solavellan I did accidentally do something funny, I decided on headcanoning a boy that Lavellan named Nehn, which means joy, and then one night, a few weeks later I realized that if that was the case then Lavellan gets to point at Solas and Nehn and say they are her pride and joy. Literally since that was the meaning of their names. Hahaha...

I am reminded of David Bowie's version of "Nature Boy"

 

https://www.youtube....h?v=pCbeoorsN38

 

Spoiler

There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far, over land and sea

A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he

And then one day, a magic day
He passed my way, and while we spoke
Of many things, fools and kings
This he said to me

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"

 

I love you for this post. Really.

Happy Val's day, my favourite thread on BSN! For me this day was a total waste of a make up, hope it was better for you. Cheers!

My headcanon is they'd have some sort of weird ass nick-name, and never actually is referred to as a gender/or name. Just some really old ass person who collects knowledge or something. with the mysteriouuuss backstory of being the kid of a Elvhen god and the Inquisitor. 

 

I'm talkin more about Book Hound/Sansa! they kinda had a beauty and the beast thing going on when Sansa was in kings landing, but It's sorta gone now that she's off doing stuff.

Hahahahaha I know right? I find it weird how Solas is screaming "Inquisitor? Inquisitor! how do you feel?" with a super worried voice, and then you open your eyes and well, he's the further he could be, behind everybody else... I mean if he's that worried he should be right at your side, helping you get up and such.. :-( it makes me think he's more worried about "What if she knows now..?" and being far away, defensive :-P
In my game it was Cassandra who came closer to check on me, and she had such a big Shield on I could barely see Solas xD
