I dreamed once that my Levallan was crying and Dorian was kissing her tears away. He kissed her lips so softly, there was no passion or lust..it was sweet. He loves her so much, but there is nothing there, he wishes there was. He also wants to find Solas and kick his arse!
Blah to stupid dreams!!!
That sounds so sweet awww 
It's hard for me to imagine a kiss on the lips in a non-intimate/sexual way for some reason...
Yey just found out I can play the DLC in......May.
Better than nothing I guess. I've known of some DLC content that it's available 6-12 months after release for other platforms, so this is not super bad?
Ugh.
I'm kind of glad to be such an obsessive saver in these moments. I definitely need to play anything not the promised story DLC with Solas in my party.
Whenever the time comes for the DLC that will give us at least some answers, that's when the new endgame save will be created. 
Debating whether to strip him or not first. Probably, since I can give his stuff to Dorian.
I second this :X
It's terrible, but most likely
Speaking of which, anyone get a feeling Dorian is bi? Would make for interesting fiction
Yeah, pretty dysfunctional, but hey, it's fiction, and my Tala is far from perfect. So WHY not, I say.
I'm pretty positive Dorian is only interested in guys, as Sable said. Beyond the writers stating he's gay, Dorian himself says he's only interested in men, and will actually gently let down a female inquisitor if you've been flirting with him (you can continue to innocently flirt with him or not after this point, depending on your reaction). The Inquisition guidebook even says Dorian can only be romanced by male Inquisitors, so. Taking all that at its word, I think it's safe to say he's not bisexual. 
It's a bit of a late reply, but since you were looking for that post... Here it is.

You're like our awesome Tumblr guru, Capricorn. I love it.
Edit: Grammar.

What!? Six to twelve months for secondary platforms, seriously? That's brutal. Guess I should be feeling thankful that we only have to wait a month but I am not I am so annoyed I could burn things.
Now I'm just thinking of Origins and being able to strip Daveth and Ser Complains-A Lot just before the Joining.
*eyes Solas* Would have made his leaving a tad less painful if he did so in his small clothes.
I love him to pieces but he won't be getting my best gear ever again.
You could? Ha, awesome. I've started re-playing Origins and just got to the Korcari Wilds, so I'm going to be pursuing this noble path now.
As far as Solas goes, I can't help but continue to outfit him in the best gear, even knowing he's leaving. I'm pretty sure someone here has mentioned this before, but wouldn't it be terrible to outfit him in your nastiest, old-lady's-couch inspired, plaidweave abomination of a robe and have that be the outfit you see him in upon his next appearance? Doubtful, but you never know. The possibility would haunt me.

I still always give Solas my best made mage gear. Helps me feel better to hope it helps keep him safer than he'd be without it.

You just broke my heart a little bit. ;_;
Please be safe, Solas.

Sorry. ;-;
Also, this the only reason I put up with that weird cloak/cape thing in his tier 3 gear.

I do the same thing. Even though I know he'll leave me. May it protect him in whatever the hell he's doing...
Stupid egg...

Is that in the Battlemage Armour? I always go Battlemage Mail, so I'm not super familiar with the other high tier gear. Though I like certain aspects of the Battlemage Armour, the Mail with that furry shoulder wrap is where my heart's at. (Read: the armour that gives me the biggest lady boner.)
He always gets my best mage gear. Though wherever he went, he changed back into his sweater and green pants before arriving. So, I might be okay stripping him, but what I'll likely do is just make him some new armor just for the end and take his stuff for Dorian for post-game story DLC.
All this armor talk is making me think back to that short fic I posted last night that was inspired by making Solas armor. I need to focus and finish actual work now.

*whispers* Real work can wait. Write more Solas.

Ha, I wish. I have a deadline in the morning I'm trying to meet. However, I needed to get out what I already did. My friend read my feels-y stuff and began guessing on when the Fade smut will happen.

Yes it is. The battlemage mail defiantly looks better, but the stats of the battlemage armor is more useful to me, so that's why I use it.

I could never complete the Battlemage Mail set. I could find the leg upgrades but I could never find the arm upgrades so Solas is always lacking some of that awesome fur wrappings in my playthroughs.

Aaand now I feel like a horrible person. lol
Though not as horrible as my first playthrough where I had the random thought that he got rid of his custom armor because he thought he smelled my Lavellan just before drifting off to sleep to wander the fade. Whether it was the close hugs or a figment of his guilt...After that it made it more difficult to focus.
I make myself sad a lot.
You're in the right place with those feelings. I sense there will be more to come. I hope he finds some peace, mostly. I've said it before, but I can accept some form of sad closure if Solas ultimately finds some peace.

I'd like them to get back together for his sake.
I feel like my Lavellan would eventually move on and find someone else and have a real fab life, and I want that for her. But I also horribly sort of want her to never move and just wait for Solas because I feel so sad for him. It's going to be complicated making character choices for her and knowing more about the situation than she does, hard to stay faithful to her character and not make myself really sad.

I would love it if they figured out some plausible way for them to be together. But I feel like there will be no easy answers. It doesn't mean I'm not willing to be surprised, but he seems to be someone they have plans to utilize for a while, possibly over multiple games (it did take 3 games of seeding Fen'Harel into the lore and legends and awareness before revealing hey, he was at your side the whole time...and maybe you even loved him), and his own words before leaving made it sound like things were about to go down and she would notice some consequences happening.
My Lavellan, this isn't her first relationship. But this one, this one is special. It hurts sharply and uniquely. The intensity of their emotional and intellectual connection blindsided her and the love and in my headcanon, physical side followed with the same force. She is a strong person and could eventually learn to move forward and maybe even open herself again in time, but it would be some time before she'd even consider it.
But if they can't be together, I want him to experience some inner peace, somehow. He is such a tragic character.

But then they're BOTH sad. I love Solas, and I feel for him, but if Solas is hellbent on making himself miserable no matter what I do, then one of them might as well be happy and move on.

I feel much the same way about it. The chances for a happy ending are slim indeed. But still, a girl's gotta hope.
