WHAT?! Nine days?!

 

*checks*

 

But--I'm not ready! I just not got to Skyhold in my "perfect Solavellan playthrough," and my schedule is hectic since a new semester just started and I need to find a better job since this month is the last month my parents will help me with rent.

 

That means I'll either have to rush through the game (plus Descent and Jaws of Hakkon), or stay offline to avoid spoilers until I can play it; but I don't really want to do that since I'll miss the fun. 

 

I really liked being part of things when BioWare announced Tresspasser in PAX this weekend; I liked seeing the live stream and talking with everyone and being part of the hype train here in the Solas forum. I'm always the last one to know things (or play games or DLC long after the hype has died down), so for once I would have liked to play Tresspasser the same time as everyone else (the second it came out) and then talk with everyone about it as we learned about it. 

 

I completely relate & understand this.

 

I'm currently almost broke. In the next two weeks I need to get a job until scholarship money comes in. I'll also be moving into a new house. Term starts in less than a month so I should start focussing on module selection and reading lists, rather than feeding my obsessive habits even more.

 

Realistically, there's no way I'll be able to buy this DLC when it comes out AND THEN play it comfortably in my own time. I probably will, because I'm really awful at being a responsible adult and managing my free time in a sensible way (still new to the whole shebang, may change with practice, I hope). I like structure (it's an aspie thing, all of this is an aspie thing, it's never not an aspie thing), and currently have little in my life, so I'm freaking out until I get given a timetable, honestly - until that point the chances of me using my spare time stupidly increase dramatically. It's the reason I don't play MMOs - completely decimate any structure I have tried to put up, completely eat into all spare time, make a mockery of the idea of 'independent study'.

 

Chances are I won't play any more games until next summer after this DLC drops. If I don't manage to complete it before October, then I probably won't touch it until next year.

 

Life can really suck, right? If you and I both play it late, you can chat to me about it if you want

 

He might get a 2) out of me, but only if he says pretty please and/or sings Gilbert and Sullivan.

 

I will forgive everything, literally all the hurt and tragedy and pain that this DLC will almost inevitably cause, if Solas sings Gilbert and Sullivan.

Plot twist :- Falon Din is like Mannimarco from Elder Scrolls...

With all this Pantheon talk...I think it only right........

Oh, he's my favorite too! I was just looking for maximum darkness, dread, and despair. You know, Bioware style. 

 

(this is my like since I've run out).

 

I'm hoping more for June. Some hot ancient elven blacksmith crafter who can take the pure essence of romance and moonlight and turn it into armor that plays my jam whenever I fight people.

 

And then he turns out to be a Dwarf .

I'm so happy you're on this train. It's only right to spread the glitter!

 

I really hope we see them in the next game. The seem scary, amazing, and sad.  Everything I love. 

 

sorta like my other favorite elf husbando

Potentially - I think there is and isn't meaning with those cards. I think they merely reflect an important moment or aspect of the character as it stands at that moment.  I think it was also a pretty way for the marketing department to promote the game. David Gaider has said that he LOVES the persona cards and wanted to do something like that and if you've played persona...those cards are representative only of your BASEST self. and the whole thing was that you were still master of it and your future.

 

I think though - they want to avoid giving something special to the romanced lavellan's only. there are people that actually like him as friends only and would like to keep him around too (like my trevelyan...they was buddies).  

 

I dunno - I just like how we don't also get the super wolfy card if we romance him, like maybe, somehow, we opened something up in him that was deeper than what he experiences in a friendship.  Like how he only tells a romanced Lavellan about the vallaslin (well, cause he panicked like a dork but still XD).

 

Anyway, have Sera's reaction at finding how who Solas really is lolololol:

dis was such a good art day!  me draw so good~

YES. GLAMOUR TOAD JUNE! HE WILL SEE MY LAVELLAN'S DEVOTION.  HE WILL WITNESS HER!

Tell me a story about how that'll go..

 

Dirthamen is tall, with ash-blond hair, cinnamon complexion, deep violet eyes. Looks to be somewhere in his mid 30s. His hobbies are bird watching and ancient elven poetry. Says he's always been looking for that special someone, but never found the one who truly understood him. Takes you to hikes in beautiful magical elven forests and teaches you to recognize the songs of different birds. To show you you're special, he gives you a pair of parrots that he taught to say "Ar lath ma" to each other. Tells you this species of birds chooses one mate and stays with them for life. 

 

After the credits, ravens fly through an open window and peck the PC to death.

[S.W.]

So maybe we get to romance Falon'Din in DA4 and he turns out to be a great guy. Loves dogs, cooking, and microbrews. Never lies about his identity. Would join in a three-way with Zevran. Says he is over his dark and bloody past. Keeps it all simple and drama-free. Then after the credits he sacrifices the PC in a blood ritual.

sign me up.

sign me up to this one too.

I would live (and die, apparently) for doomed ancient elven pantheon romance.


Andruil's my favourite, though. She sounds like either fantastic fun, completely insane, or a vicious piece of work... or all three. Reminds me of how my dwarven warden dealt with every problem with a murder knife, and hunted dragons with absolute glee.

Beautiful .

 

So along those lines.. Lavellan could be eaten by a pack of wolves.

[TheEggCrusher]

and THAT is how we die. 

 

Solas: I suspect you have questions-

 

Lavellan: Yes, actually. A sh*tload. 

 

Solas: Well, too bad. 

 

*sends out wolves to eat you alive* 

 

Called it.

Haha I hope not.

 

Oh and you know that song you posted (Amber Run)? My husband showed me it last night and I immediately thought of Solavellan. Then I thought, "Hold on, that seems familiar.." Turns out it was the same song you had posted! He was super weirded out because he "randomly" came upon it.

 

And then he messaged me just now to remind me as you replied to me .

[TheEggCrusher]

Happy the song resonated with you   It's my favorite Solavellan song. 

 

I actually found it by watching a Solas tribute (I know i'm such solas trash) and thought it was perfect for his romance so I decided to share the full song with you all

 

Whenever I hear it I basically go full hellspiral, so it's nice to share some of my pain with people who are just as (or at least almost as) solas-crazy as me  

 

(ps yea that's really weird. it's like i'm sending you spirity connections through the fade .... that would be so cool though. it could replace cell phones lol)

Thanks to all who responded! I'm out of likes again. But  to all. 

 

(I really don't get it, the likes randomly ran out and became available at least three times today. Something's bugged.)

Ikr I lost all my likes a looong time ago and then they randomly came back for like 5 minutes (because that was how long it took me to use them all). I would be happy if it was bugged. there's just so much to like

If the sole purpose of being romanced by Falon'Din is a blood sacrifice at the end then I'd be okay with it.

 

Otherwise the only one who deserves the 'Din is Dirthamen. ^{Fight me}

Flag optimism!

 

Bioware--Weekes especially--is just using reverse psychology. Remember that weird [edit: ambiguous] tweet about Pirates of the Caribbean [edit: which was imagined by some to be about Solas and Lavellan]? It's just trolling to keep us all hyped. They'll get us all drowning in the hellspiral whirlpool of doom, we'll slap down our $15, and bang! No worries. Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows (relatively speaking). If there wasn't any sort of positive outcome possible for our Lavellans that would just be too predictable. Unless, we learn some things in this DLC that will make most of our Inkies hate Solas, so in the end we won't care about the break up anymore or if he dies alone, miserable, and unloved...

 

Ok, the flag is at half mast, but it's still waving, darn it! At least we know Thane Krios doesn't die in this DLC.    

 

Side Note: Have any of you all watched Torchwood? I kind of see parallels between Jack and Solas...and by extension Ianto and Lavellan.

Oh god that little tilt of his head in the second gif.

 

Lavellan: Awkward fumble abort abort--

Solas: I am about to kiss your brains out.

 

Seriously, the head shakes and his facial expression. Like 'oh, no you don't, get back here'.

 

[Cee]

Headcanon is my lyrium. It gives me great power, while also wrecking me, but I can't stop. 

 

They said this will be the end of the Inquisitor's story, though. I take it as license to headcanon my brains out afterwords. 

 

This. I've already kind of begun turning the headcanon wheels on who she might be two years later, how she has coped, but I will wait until after playing to actually channel whatever feels and outcomes into something.

[Renmiri1]

That tweet about Pirates of the Caribbean was about his book series

[ChuChu]

Ask and you shall receive.

 

 

 

No problem!

Admittedly, this gif set has also become a favorite of mine.

EDIT: Now I shall go too bed. Good night!

I have nothing to say really. I just thought this deserved a quote so it can be enjoyed. Again.

I like your narration xD

Ok, I'm ignorant when it comes to his series, but yeah I assumed it may have been pertaining to something else. Still, you know some of us crazies thought it was Dragon Age related at the time...any time he tweets something vague like that some of us read way too much into it, and it ends up here or on tumblr or starts some hellspiral convo on twitter. Jus' sayin'.

"I do not want to wake from my dream and discover that I am all alone. I am tired of being alone. I do not want to be cold. I do not want to be lonely."

 

I was watching Spice and Wolf to distract myself. But the Wolf Goddess Holo only makes me think about Solas more.
