Yeah. Sex with a spirit is probably really kinky or alien. Like you rub your auras together as you mind-bang.
That's Asari you're thinking. ![]()

Actually I believe Solas calls the spirit "lethallin".
After reading through some of the past discussion I kind of feel that we jump on Solas a bit too much for making bad decisions (myself included). The only questionable/bad decision we actually know about is he gave his orb to Corypheus. The rest is all speculation. We don't know what he did in the past or why although we do know that he feels guilt/regret/remorse/pain about it. There's some evidence that he did indeed seal away the elven gods but there's also evidence that they probably needed to be taken out of the picture. However, that's all just speculation as well.
We need more context. Let's form a mob and (peacefully) take over BioWare's headquarters and nicely make them tell us everything.
Oh ****!
I have for so long been waiting for somebody to make this point (and yes! I am pissed as a newt here...) but precisely this, as for his past actions we only have Solas's feelings of guilt to go on... And he is a particularly moral and grim and fatalistic individual... Precisely the type to over-subscribe on the self-blame.
Without a doubt giving the orb to Cory was a mistake but we have no idea of the context or the circumstances in which this mistake was made...
I'm currently eating a Cadbury Creme Egg. It's on topic because eggs. And Solas.
That's Asari you're thinking.
Maybe elves could learn a thing from asari about breeding. Stop not being able to breed with other races, rabbits, gotta learn how to breed like your slur name suggests if you want to create the glorious empire.

What? I thought Solas was a potato.

And if you're completely insane like me he never even directly gave his orb to Coryflora... But simply left it with the Sentinels in Cadash Thaig for safe keeping. <___<

He's a Spanish omelet. xD
What? I thought Solas was a potato.
And thus the egg vs. potato war began ...
(I actually don't have an opinion but for a long time Solas was an egg. I didn't know he changed. I'm not eating a Cadbury Creme Potato though. Because they don't exist).
Edit: I hate getting ToP. <pretend there's a screenshot of Solas> *waves hand like a Jedi* And ignore that's the wrong genre *waves hand again*

NO! HE'S A RAPTOR!!
And months ago, Solas was apparently a coconut.
At this point, he sounds like a breakfast burrito.
.
Because for someone like Solas who is all about freedom there would be a big difference between the slumber he freely chose to undergo and the forced confinement of a prison-like sentence. He didn't have to presumably lock away the gods and go into his uthenera, but he freely chose to do so because it was right. Cole mentions how he did it to save them (if his conversation is really about them). And that freedom of choice shaped his thoughts, emotions and future plans obviously. It seems like it was a worthy cause, something while difficult to do was for the greater good. Being locked away against his will would shape his feelings quite differently I think. If the confinement was imposed because of a mistake he makes.. such as releasing blighted old gods or something it would really give him something to think about. In confinement he wouldn't be able to wander like he did during uthenara. And not being able to watch the outside world move around him he wouldn't be able to focus all his thoughts on ways to change it when free.
I don't see Wisdom as an entity that would feed him the correct answers, but would instead help guide him towards those positive life choices. She would help him see that it's okay to be happy. I totally subscribe to the theory that the reason he hooks up with you right after Wisdom dies in the game is because she had been pointing him towards you the entire time, subtly telling him to go get his own happiness. And her death sparked that need to finally listen, to take a break and heed the advice of Wisdom for once.
And again, I think spirits are MUCH more complex than other people are giving them credit for. Who is to say if Wisdom could grapple with complex emotions or not.
I would absolutely agree that his thought process under confinement would be different, but i thought our original point was whether or not locking them up together would be beneficial? not whether or not he would arrive at such a shitty conclusion on his own regardless of his circumstances.
I posit that he has already been receiving her council, which fell apart under practical application (conclave) and is therefor not beneficial, regardless of his personal freedom.

And now I want to eat Solas in a whole new way.
Oh gosh.. It wasn't Crystal White but another one of those time travel Solavellan fics where she goes back in time... Was it Fen'ara? I can't remember.
At any rate, the way she described fade sex as being a melding of emotion and action in an indescribable fashion spoke to me . That's how I imagine spirit x mortal(ish) would be. And yeah, if it were in the fade? ALL of the mind-bending, toe curling mind-bang.
Yeeees. Like it would be a deeper connection than just putting the P into the V. It would be a melting of who you are completely as an entity with an entirely separate being. You would feel what they feel and vice versa. THE TWO OF YOU WOULD BECOME ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE!
My memory is vague but pretty sure someone made rules of:
NO ABELAS
NO PANTHEON
NO RAPTURES
NO MAKING FUN OF SOLAS
Not sure if it's going to be enforced since it was made during the heat of argument 2 days ago.
Alright but you started this...
If that someone is me...never said those things. But think what you want I never said I was setting rules. FYI Solas sets the rules in this thread. (kinda)
Abelas I never said you couldn't talk about him just that 10 to 20 pages of talking about him is rediculous this isn't the Abelas thread
Pantheon I never said you all couldn't talk about them period.
Raptures All I said was I didn't like it, did I set some rule saying you couldn't post any more of it ? No. I love most of the art people post in here even the smut.
No making fun of Solas I don't care that people joke around about Solas just doing it for so many pages is a bit depressing. It begins to look more like hate than just joking around.
It might sound like I'm setting rules here but I'm not ...all I said the other day was just me saying that people need to tone down the hate and talking about other characters for so many pages. If you are going gripe about that then...go forth and have your hissy fit.
I know there are a few people who agree with me and I thank you but doing this defending myself for defending this thread alone is getting tiresome. I guess I should just leave. I want to get along with everyone in here but when you have people who disagree with you and argue with you very rudely? This place isn't healthy especially in my condition.
Was this a harsh complaint btw?
Y'know that's the vibe I'm getting when I come into this thread. I'm not saying no one is welcome here but I'm getting to the point where I don't want to come in here anymore cause there are more 'Screw that guy" and "This guy is so much better so let's talk about him a ton" happening in this thread. I'm not saying Solas is perfect and he's upset some players including me but I still love the guy and want a chance at a happy ending for him and my Lavellan other than just wanting to murder knife him like some people do.
I feel there is more hate for Solas in this thread and it bothers me. I know some of you want to joke around about Solas and I'm fine with that but it kinda goes too far and then it turns to hate again. *sigh*
I'm probably the only one here that feels this way.......
Remember when this place used to be like this ya'll?!!!
If you think so then sadly your feelings are about as fragile as a five year old and you might need some help....seriously.
It seems this is just going to on and on and on...just because I and other people agree with how this thread had been turning into a Solas hate thread and was getting sooo off topic for pages and I spoke against it. Also I don't have to go digging in this huge thread to show evidence cause I know there are few in here that agree with me that have seen it too they just don't want to get into the argument and in a way I understand. I would love to stay but this is getting stressful.
So is it going to be farewell for me?.....have to wait and see.... in 3..2..1...

I think it would be beneficial. Mind teamwork and all that.

Well we know that solas is falen din but we don't know what the ancient elves were exactly. They don't consider modern elves to be their people.
Due to the dinosaur frescos in the game, I made an animorph interpretation of what solas would look like. If Flemeth can turn into a dinosaur, so can Solas:
I'm sure there is a concrete screenshot that can back up that solas is a rapture.
And i'm positive there is a screenshot of Solas revealing the truth that he is a potato because nikki-tikki took one.
edit: found the potato screenshot:
Not sure if you're being serious... That's more question marks than I'm used to dealing with.
I'm serious, just pissed on claret, 'tis all... No, trust + love = faith...

I was really confused about the raptures. All is clear, now.

I think the conversation she's talking about is:
- Blackwall: Sera and I were just talking about you. We need you to settle a question for us.
- Solas: (Sighs.) Sera's involved? So this question will be offensive.
- Blackwall: Yes, probably. Sorry.
- Blackwall: You make friends with spirits in the Fade. So... um, are there any that are more than just friends? If you know what I mean.
- Solas: Oh, for... really?!
- Blackwall: Look, it's a natural thing to be curious about!
- Solas: For a twelve year old!
- Blackwall: It's a simple yes or no question!
- Solas: Nothing about the Fade or spirits is simple, especially not that.
- Blackwall: Aha! So you do have experience in these matters!
- Solas: I did not say that.
- Blackwall: Don't panic. It'll be our little secret.
- Solas: Ass.
- Blackwall: Now who's twelve?
Which seems to imply that yeah you can bang some spirits, but it won't be easy.
yeah i got the original reference, but it brought to mind the banter with IB where he explicitly states "no"
but a he's probably either lying from embarrassment or he's splitting hairs (haha) on the definition of sex
and b PW's tweet implying you can think of it any way you want, which i find to be a typical writer response because encouraging ambiguity makes their writing seem more nuanced and interesting
so yeah i don't think he spent a thousand years in the fade without sticking his dick in something
? I hadn't noticed tbh, lol. Guess I should have looked longer at those flycam closeups.
lol it's not exactly news, it was brought up multiple times in the thread, mostly when discussing young solas art.
-snip-
You stay. 
I wish we'd stop bringing up the argument every five pages. We should just let that go and move on.

Doesn't even Cole say something along the lines of "you weren't wrong"? In one of their mysterious conversations. I trust Cole on these things.

THIS. For god's sake, this. This argument keeps getting brought up either directly or in a passive aggressive, "funny" way.
Do I need to get Elsa up in here? Because I'll do it. I'll have her come in and sing her lungs out in this thread.
I'm serious, just pissed on claret, 'tis all... No, trust + love = faith...
Agree with the complete trust part, I don't think it needs love to be faith. I'm assuming as well we're talking about faith on it's own and not faith as in religion. Pretend I said that more articulated

You and I are in complete agreement here. Being thousands of years old... He's going to find some creative ways to go to pound town imo.
