Just call me sugar mama in that case.
He DID give you a castle. A ruined castle barely fit for habitation, but you know. It's the thought that counts ![]()
P.S. - What's everyone's favourite Solas dialogue? Romance, general, antagonistic, party banter or otherwise. Tell me plz, so I can read the dialogue back in the voice in my head. ;3

... I don't know why, but I just had the image of Solas being like, "Yes, vhenan. I am an artist. I will create a masterpiece of your courageous exploits within the Inquisition and present this to you as an emotionally charged, meaningful gift."
And then several months pass and he hands you a piece of purple construction paper covered in macaroni, pipe cleaners, glitter and glue. It's the thought that counts? I don't know. I shouldn't be awake.
You mean like this?
I really, really love that .gif. It's perfect in every way, basically. Whoever created it deserves a big slice of cake and a high five (cake in one hand; high five with the other, lest it become a cake-five. Not cool).
It also helps that that scene in Bedazzled never fails to make me giggle.
Teehee.
Yes, Cassandra, please go on for the (I don't even remember how many times by now) about her missing vallaslin. Nope, totally not minding the awkwardness.
She and Solas are out of banter, so that one keeps triggering at least once a day.
Thanks, BioWare for awkward breakup-related conversations.
Someone has probably mentioned this song before but just in case...my friend showed it to me and I've been dying in feels ever since.

One of these days I'll figure the embed thing out?
Well i manage to cry again:( I swear i pray every single day for Solas closure ..it's just that one thing that doesn't let me move on in life ..

Lavellan: So you're suggesting I'm graceful?
Solas: No. I am declaring it. It was not a subject for debate.
This was the first time a BioWare LI made me blush IRL. I am a grown-ass woman who has been playing these romances since Baldur's Gate, and the Fade nerd makes me fall all over myself. The other line that made me blush was this:
Solas: I do adore the heady blend of power, intrigue, danger, and sex that permeates these events.

Ooh yeah, those are good ones. And yeah, when he said sex I think I just about fell out of my chair. Well, not quite. But I did break in some sort of ridiculous high pitched laugh.
Also, is it just me or does his accent intensify during the Winter Palace dialogue? I feel like it was probably an intentional thing on GDL's part, due to the knowledge that Solas was all high on the atmosphere and a touch drunk. Unless I'm imagining it. But if not, it's great.

Ugh, this 100%. All of what you said. I was gone right there.
Also his later "I am grim and fatalistic. Getting you into bed is just an enjoyable side benefit."
Like...ohhhh, way to call back to the side benefits thing and also be utterly smooth again.

No, he does sound different there.
Also, his "hunt well!" made me laugh because it was an unexpected thing to say but also he sounded.....exuberant? about it. Meanwhile, we're kind of supposed to be undercover.
Someone enjoyed himself.
Essentially, Solas should drink more.

I love drunk!Solas. He's happier and less inhibited, and at least at the Winter Palace, he shows more of his darker Dread Wolf side too. "Hunt well." He has no compunctions about the Game and its gilded savagery, and if anything, he admires the Inquisitor who plays the Orlesians for fools. Such hot wow. Much smooth.

So when I was lying in bed last night, in that awesomely comfortable state between wakefulness and sleep, I had a chunk of Solas' dialogue repeat in my mind, and it occurred to me that not a single one of GDL's deliveries of Solas' lines fell flat for me. I honestly can't think of anything Solas says that sounds anything but good, as far as the voice acting is concerned.
So I fell asleep thinking, hot damn, we really hit the jackpot with voice actors in general in this game, and doubly so for Solas. GDL is just so spot on for Solas' character. I feel like a good 80% of my affection for Solas is caught up in what he says and how he says it. So. I might have to build a co-shrine to Patrick Weekes and GDL: the former for writing the best character and accompanying dialogue ever, and the latter for having a wonderful voice coupled with the ability to convey metric ****-tonnes of nuanced emotion.
*fan-girling hard*

I know a lot of people here don't like how antagonistic he is towards Bull but pre-Tal Vashoth!Bull and Solas arguing about the Qun is amazing.
Him giving Sera advice about revolutions is amazing too.
Some of his banters with Vivienne. In particular the 'accidentally set his coattails on fire' the one where she tells him to ask if there's anything about magic he doesn't understand. Sarcastic!Solas is the best.
I think I spotted the first April Fools' Day joke: http://biowareaddict...tu/nouveau-dlc/
(concerning a false DLC "The Path of the Dread Wolf")
*sobs*
Well, that's not even funny, that's just plain cruel, actually.

EDIT: Glad to see it was just a fansite!

Here are some of mine. :3
And for the feels:
Lavellan: "Solas, don't leave me, not now. I love you."
Solas: "You have a rare and marvelous spirit. In another world..."
Lavellan: "Why not this one?"
Solas: "I... can't. I'm sorry." <--- The anguish in his voice! Great job, GDL! ![]()
Cute! I've always had this personal headcanon of Solas teaching Lavellan how to dance. My Lavellan, in my head, is a good dancer but she has no idea how to dance with people like those fancy pants Orlesians. Of course, Solas would come up with the excuse of, "I saw it in the Fade."
And for some reason, I always pictured Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" playing in the background as he teaches her. (Don't ask, I just love that song.)
EDIT: Top Solas again.
All New, Faded For Her

Hmm Solas comments....actually one of the cutest bits is him literally snortling when Cole is describing in detail what Bull did with the Inquisitor on the war table...and Sera adds, "Hope he took him up the Dales!" at which point Solas snortles. It's the only time you really hear him laugh.
Out of likes.
I always thought that Josephine taught Lavellan to dance, but I like the Solas idea better!
Okay, question. This green thing that Solas wears? What would you call it? It's not a vest or an overshirt... I don't know what the name for it would be. And I need to directly reference it in a fanfic.
It looks like a vest to me.
And yeah, I was the one who mentioned the hair concept art being on the reject pile- where it should stay IMO. ![]()

Really curious to see that one on Youtube o_o

True.
It makes more sense to have Josephine or an actual dance instructor but where's the fun in that?
I guess Lavellan could also have Solas as a dance partner during her practice sessions. ![]()

Yes! They dance together all the time, under the starry night sky while camping under the moon light. Wolves howling in the distance is their music. I need some sleep...
