I'm glad I'm not alone in this. ^^; I really don't understand any of it.
I used to panic when we'd be assigned poetry in class. There's just something about it that escapes me.

It makes me want to make a state where Alistair is a warden...but I literally cannot not romance Fenris(especially since Sebastian romances aren't factored in to the keep). And I cannot choose between Alistair and essentially Fenris. CANNOT.
Huh? Seb has a romance tile in the Keep.
Edit for TOP Solas:

My current playthrough has a Sebastian romance. He is definitely referred to at the same moments when Hawke's other love interests are spoken about.
All you people sacrificing your Fenris romanced Hawkes...YOU ARE ALL MONSTERS!!
Yes, but my Surana romanced Alistair! I've sacrificed him once and it was so heartbreaking I don't think I can ever do it again (of course, I'm replaying my canon DA2 at the moment and now there's no way I can sacrifice Fenris' idiot girlfriend either).
Nope. In my canon everyone lives and then goes to have a party with Kaiden, Ashley, Bethany and Carver.

Hm? No, they are. My canon!Hawke romanced Sebastian and the couple sees multiple mentions in game. The only issue is that both rival! and friend!mance appear to play out essentially the same. But she'll say goodbye to him if you leave her in the Fade, Varric will write a condolence letter after. If you send Hawke to Weisshaupt, the neat Cass/Varric banter will change to "And what about Prince Sebastian?" which results in the answer he, and everyone else will soon join Hawke. If I'm not wrong, the Warden romances get referenced often too. Zevran definitely nets a mention in the letter. (I was a bit slow in responding apparently, haha.)
Bah, this is just one of those alpha dog things. As someone else said, think of the Orlesians! Conan's beard alone can't save them.I don't care if it was practical or what, he was with Howe so he died
I like my revenge to be complete, Punisher style.
That's my canon as well. I rationalize it that if no one in Orlais is chattering about King Alistair's elven mistress, my Surana has done her job well, and she wouldn't mention it in official correspondence, either.My cannon has Alistair as King and me as his mistress. Makes it really easy to keep Hawke for Fenris.
I was just disappointed that there wasn't a reference even in the wardens letter to their romance. It makes me want to make a state where Alistair is a warden...but I literally cannot not romance Fenris(especially since Sebastian romances aren't factored in to the keep).

The sense I got was that due to the events at the end of DA:II, Sebastian decides to take the throne regardless of what romance path you picked.
Hullo... I'll just leave this here
Sorry for lowering the fanart quality around here

This is adorable! ![]()

His actions only change based on whether you let Anders live or die, which I guess makes sense. Independent of friendship or rivalry with Hawke, the Chantry blowing up was a pretty defining moment for the poor dude.
Occasionally when he's watching me play Dragon Age, my boyfriend will roll his eyes and say, "Why is everyone so goddamn SAD and melodramatic?" He does have a point there...
Yes, exactly. What may change as a result however is the chaste marriage one gets on the friendly route. A prince needs an heir after all.The sense I got was that due to the events at the end of DA:II, Sebastian decides to take the throne regardless of what romance path you picked.
Heeeeey ladies. Feast your eyes on my latest masterpiece.
SpoilerPS: I'm sorry I finished it before your nap ended, Liz.
I'm liking this and quoting it because it's just that awesome. I'm glad you fixed the butt-to-finger problem in the early parts of your sketch, lol.
Hahah thank you, Meer.
I think the dread wolf slippers are my favorite part too, they make him extra adorable.
My current play through, I made a male arsehole Hawke who romances no one in The Keep so I can leave him behind without feeling bad. He and Varric are rivals so maybe he won't be as sad?
Hahah thank you, Meer.

I don't think they do enough to soften the "Skeeve" factor in this picture...I'm just thinking about the convo from last night. His little nose scrunch here. DYING.
NOTE: The slippers are cute and I would totally buy a pair.
They do, they so do. I also hope they squeak when he walks. Or sadly wail "Vhenaaaaaaaaaan," can't decide.
Squeaking. Definitely squeaking. He refuses to take them off and continues the rest of his glorious quest in squeaky slippers. Even better if he's in the clownish Keeper robes.
Solas: Falon'Din, kill me if you must! But your bloodthirsty reign terror ENDS NOW *squeak squeak squeak*
Falon'Din:....omg i cannot take you seriously rite nao.

Probably
And a little Baldur channeling.
I'd also have to harden Alistair to make him stay just to not kill a guy I really want to kill anyway. Meh, I'll just kill him and Alistair and the fellas can kill Orlesians together. I do like Loghain, but I like Alistair more. Plus, I'd rather not sacrifice hawke for him so he won't be living to stop any Orlesians anyway. I'll do it for him in his name. My Trevelyan takes the top option when talking about him to the requisition officer anyway.
Originally, yes. He was saying "The fact that you now posess the anchor and can do all this cool **** with it means I have to re-evaluate all my plans." But then, when you start fade flirting with him and he says "You change everything," he really is telling you "yeah, I'm into you."-- in his own enigmatic way. I support this claim with two pieces of evidence, first of all, the ridiculous and embarrassing amount of time I spent analysing his facial expressions. When Lavellan starts flirting with him and he tells her she changes everything, his face brightens. He's very subtle, though. Not like Cullen. Cullen is kind of in your face about his feelings, imo. Solas is more... well, he holds his cards very close to his chest. But that is neither here nor there.I love that picture (even if I don't understand the Abelas obsession, he seemed like a sad ass to me xD), but because I'm awkward I wanted to point out that Solas meant the Inquisitor kissing him first was impulsive and ill-considered, and his fault was encouraging it. I've noticed a few people get it mixed up. Just ignore me if I've gotten myself mixed up though.
But I did want to mention how the first kiss is always a bit sad for me after my first playthrough because we kiss him for a complete misconception. He's talking, in his own enigmatic way, about how we've completely changed his plans, but we think he's complimienting us. ;_; Poor girl. At least he likes us back. x)

Hahaha hey now! There's nothing wrong with him stuffing his pillow with a few stray Lavellan hairs! It helps them connect via the fade or something.

This is my kind of fan-art, actually. Basically the most adorable ever.
Also, perhaps his leaving without providing answers will actually place all of the inquisition in more danger. I don't see Lavellan giving up on looking for him. What if they accidentally interfere with his plans? I really think by not telling her the truth he is potentially endangering her more. I think what he did wasn't to protect Lavellan but to protect his plan. Weekes said in an interview that Solas stops kissing her at that crucial moment because he is about to lose himself and his cause. So he chose his cause instead of her and instead of telling her the truth like he had intended to do at that point, he makes something else up and then protects himself.
Well, something like that is going to depend on the particular Lavellan - or Inquisitor in general. Mine aren't going to go traipsing after Solas whether they romanced him or were just friends with him. The most I can see one of them doing is going to see the ruins where his village was. Certainly they'd keep an ear out for news about him, but beyond that? As much as they want an explanation and are possibly owed one about the orb and who he is, he's an adult who chose to end a relationship, or in the case of friend-Inquisitor, departed after succeeding in ending the immediate threat. Running after him would not be the first thing that comes to mind for any of my characters. That goes from "I love you and I miss you" into creepy wtf obsession for me.
If we're given good reason to go after him, if he comes back, if we cross paths in DLC future? Excellent. But just running after him in some sort of heartbroken mess ain't happening here. ![]()
Essentially, he's asking for it. Which is why, I think, he's so ready to accept that ill-considered kiss. He was standing over there, 'ill-considering' kissing Lavellan first.
It's especially obvious when you see the scene with flycam. Once she kisses him, there's no hesitation, not until after he's kissed the hell out of her
You don't kiss someone with *that* much gusto without having thought about it before.
