*sigh* We really need that DLC soon. We're slowly gonna go mad just waiting here, speculating what's going to happen, whether Solas is going to die and what we're going to do with his remains...

 

It's already happening/happened.

 

 

 

I am still trying to finish my stupid work assignments and instead just added to some Solavellan stuff I'd been writing. Oops.

 

 

Please, DLC announcement soon. Please, BioWare.

 

Watch if we get an announcement for DLC it will be something wholly unrelated and then we just continue going mad.

Here is my crash guide to surviving--nay, thriving--in the Solavellan hellspiral:

 

1) Find an island in the hellspiral.  It can be smut, fluff, filthy filthy sex, or something else altogether.  Mine is the Island of Dorian, Best Mage.  Go to your island whenever the feels are too much.

 

2) Proper equipment is the key!  You need a very robust pool floatie.  Mine looks like a giant rubber duck covered in kitten gifs, but there's also the inflatable d*ldo of Falon's Din.  Your personal hellspiral flotation device can be anything you like.

 

3) Flippers help you explore other hellspirals and become a true master of the environment.  The red lyrium flippers take you to the Samson hellspiral, the golden ones to Abelas.  The glittery ones to the glitterotica hellspiral, but putting those flippers on costs 1d4 max sanity each time.

 

4) Learn the signs that herald the appearance of the Greater Feels Demon, also known as The Weekes.  Just flee to your island whenever this creature turns up, and ride out the storm of tears in its wake.

 

...oh god I just typed that.  Bedtime.

 

Can I just say how excited I am that we were both writing lists at the same time? Granted, yours is much more practical, and far less creepy. But impractical and progressively creepy are pretty good characterizations of me during what has become a pretty dysfunctional time, so. ^___^

 

At any rate, I am going to progress through your helpful walkthrough survival kit assembly now.

 

1) Okay, hmm. An island. Smut! Art. Smutty art!

 

2) Equipment. Uh. Falcor. The real Falcor, flying and being fluffy and majestic and ****.

 

3) I want none of these flippers. Out of the flippers available, I'd maybe rent the glitterotica hellspiral ones from time to time, but not often enough to make the down payment towards ownership. Are there any other flippers? Can I craft my own flippers?

 

4) Done.

 

Please don't go to bed. Stay up and be crazy with me.

I feel this. Especially the bit about madness. I am pretty sure it's the lack of solid DLC news that's doing me in right now. My mind starts running away from me with all the possibilities regarding Solas' future, and before long I'm talking about wearing body parts.

 

Step one: Play DA:I; fall in unexpected love with Solas

Step two: Lurk in forum thread devoted to Solas

Step three: Get heart broken by Solas; cry

Step four: Re-play DA:I in exact same fashion; make account and de-lurk on forum for the soul purpose of commiserating in wondrous misery

Step five: Draw Solas and Lavellan being cute and stuff; maybe contribute to the odd serious discussion

Step six: Post progressively weirder things on forum, increasing number of animated gifs, only tangibly related to Solas

Step seven: Find self desiring to fashion jewellery out of fictional beau's skeletal remains

Step eight: Remove self from society; find a nice corner; stay there forever.

It's already happening/happened.

New and most beloved headcanon to date is DLC of Lavellan riding Falcor in pursuit of Solas, ala:

You can absolutely craft your own flippers.  Spending too much time in one hellspiral causes the immense sanity loss, according to researchers at Harvard Medical School.  They get a lot done over there

I suggest the Fairbanks flippers.

On Topic:

I second the need for a DLC announcement. We're all losing our brains in fringe hellspirals and/ or emotional investment due to the amount of time passed. I've begun shipping Adaar and Fairbanks. This may be a new low (high?). I give them one more month before an announcement though!

 

Huh. Fairbanks could use a good woman. I'm on board with this. And god, think of the mayhem another solid month would produce. I'm actually kind of nervous.

Gaspard x June x Morrigan hellspiral.  Someone will find a way to make that aberration real.

[RogueBait]

I suggest the Fairbanks flippers. Sexy Trash Robin Hood Fairbanks.

Spoiler

I have so many feels about Fairbanks, I can't even.

 

And I'm out of likes. I like this.

 

You had to emphasize his freckles, didn't you. Now I'm looking at Fairbanks in a beautiful new light. And he is like Robin Hood! Ugh. Thanks a lot, you gloriously talented pioneer. ಠ_ಠ 

 

No really, thank you.

Freckles. *Sigh*

 

 

I also like Michel de Chevin's face wandering around Skyhold.

 

I'm still in the middle of reading The Masked Empire. But I like him.

[Cee]

I love Solas' freckles. They're so light but when you notice them.... My canon Lavellan is visibly freckled.

 

 

 

Michel seems to enjoy walking around near Fairbanks for me, which is why I thought of him.

I saw this wonderful line of Tumblr responses to that picture, with everyone making further puns, and one guy freaking out about why everyone was laughing at a salad dressing bottle with a knife in it like it was the funniest thing ever, and demanding to know why. The final response was, "...nobody tell him."   

I support shipping Fairbanks with anyone and everyone.

[RogueBait]

Ughhh I know, right? Freckles. And accents.

But more than his glorious, beautiful, wonderful coloring... Fairbanks denounces the excess and ignorance of the Orlesian nobility. He's this amazing strategist, fighter for the people, in one of his possible outcomes he willingly parts with half of his grandfather's treasury to help those who were displaced or otherwise harmed by the civil war in Orlais. 

Michel de Chevin gets lost in my garden all the time. Hanging round the bushes. For some inexplicable reason.

On topic: Solas. I romanced him once! Also freckles. But he's a ginger. 

 

You paint a pretty picture, I must say. The more akin to a Robin Hood figure Fairbanks is described, the more interesting he becomes. I've kind of had a long standing crush on Robin Hood since I was a kid, so I guess it makes sense. Both as an abstract concept, and the various accompanying physical embodiment of dashing outlawed heroes we've been shown over the years.

 

Tell me about it. Black hair and blue eyes are a mean combination. And freckles. And accents. Come to think of it, my husband ticks all of those boxes.  Living the dream.

 

You know, looking at Solas' brows, I'm willing to bet he's a dark auburn, rather than bright ginger. Like Michael Fassbender.

Mm. Yup. I am okay with this.

Unf... I'm a sucker for the black-hair-and-blue-eyes combo. Freckles are nice too. And sexy accents as well (hello Sebastian Vael). And gingers... Basically, everything you just said. *cough*

 

As for Solas, I agree with you. I always saw him as auburn rather than ginger. And ooh, Fassbender...

[Cee]

My Lavellan is an auburn like that thanks to a character creation accident that didn't seem to allow for dark brown hair. But over time, I felt like it fits her better than brown.

 

My second Lavellan (mage) has actual black hair but the graphics and my PC not handling high meshes gave her a weird silver tint to her black hair that makes me crave the Black Emporium. She has silvery gray eyes and the silver tone to her hair looks super weird. I also want to adjust her face a bit.

My SO is also black-haired, blue eyed, and accented.  Solavellans have a type besides Egghead? 

[Cee]

Mine has black hair, green/hazel eyes, and has a definite regional accent but not a foreign one. No freckles though. I'm the one with the freckles. Light ones though, like Solas' and they're easily covered with makeup (boo).

 

Solas is not anyone I would've considered a 'type' for me, but here we are. I guess he's very hands on/grabby like Solas.

I think it's time for... The Gif™

Damn you. Spent most of my lunch hour staring at the gif. Finally moved on and then Capricorn's jaw and lips posts came along and ate the rest of my lunch hour.

Damn, that looks good. After seeing that I suddenly want to hop on the Fairbanks train. Never gave him much thought.

... My husband shares a birthplace with Sebastian's VA. <__< >__> Scottish accents. Unf. Also, evidently I have a thing for Welsh accents now, too. Thanks, GDL. Thanks, Solas. THANKS, GREAT BRITAIN.

 

Spoilered for more non-Solas:

Off topic, but related to Scots/Gingers. Have you heard of the Outlander series? Historical, time-travel-ish novels set in 18th Century Scotland during the Jacobite uprising, written by Diana Gabaldon, recently turned premier cable tv series. I read several of the books years ago, and they're among my favs. The concept sounds kinda hokey, but it's really not. They're very well done. I highly recommend it, if you're into that sort of thing. Anyway, at the mention of sexy, accented auburn haired dudes, I think you could appreciate one of the key characters. :x

 

I believe you can watch the first full episode on Starz' website: http://www.starz.com/freefullepisodes/

 

My SO is also black-haired, blue eyed, and accented.  Solavellans have a type besides Egghead? 

 

Yes! Let us unite! I'd be curious to know if any sort of trend emerged if there was some kind of poll.

 

Edit: Unintentional emoticon. Get outta here, you.

I found a non mage Trevelyan the easiest to send to the templars. You can headcanon your way into anything but there's barely any work needed for a mundy noble.  

 

I've created a male human archer rogue for my next playthrough, ready to romance Dorian...

 

Hope I can stick with it...
