Hello fellow Solasmancers!

hello 

 

have you come to join in on our pain?? 

 

[Commander of the Grey]

let's rationalize this before we all start to have mental breakdowns

ok so


1st of all, this is probably just saying that he's sad it's the last DlC

2nd of all, he's not really tweeted about Solas before (I don't think) so it's unlikely he'd be referencing him now when that seems to be more of Weeke's job

3rd, Solas is not a main player in the DLC so a general tweet like that would most likely be referring to the general story

As far as #1 there were tweets from him a few weeks ago talking about a difficult scene he was having trouble with and how terribly sad it is. If my memory serves. Trying to go back through the twitter thread now that we know just what they've been hinting at for a while.

I doubt they'd be so obvious, right? I'm actually expecting a companion to die. Cole dying would devastate me more than my Quiz kicking the bucket. Or at least someone we can't avoid recruiting. And they have plans for Solas in some capacity so....

Maybe it's Scout Harding and that's why there's a song about 'a certain scout'?

:/ I'll just go into this expecting the absolute worst and hopefully be okay with what I actually get.

Eviebot, what the hell?

User: Do you support the mages or templars?

Eviebot: I don't play or support sport teams.

User: The mages and templars are not sports teams.

Eviebot: Will you marry me?

User: I don't think so.

Eviebot: What are you, a retro Magic Eight ball?

User: Yes, good guess!

Eviebot: I guess, that means you are confused!

User: I need to know if you support the mages or templars.

Eviebot: I do know. That's all you need to know.

User: Which side do you choose?

Eviebot: What side? I lost, the game is over. Everyone lost, because it is global thermonuclear war.

If they don't release the romanced tarot version with the DLC, I say we march with on Edmonton with torches and pitchforks.

I remember that tweet, it was from July:

 

https://twitter.com/...142385796321280

 

followed by:  https://twitter.com/...146427150856192

 

I doubt it'll be about Harding; I fully expect her to come back for DA4.

[Vaseldwa]

This makes me remember this horror show/comedy:

 

 

[Sabriel.]

SO I finished The Masked Empire (surprised it took me so little time).

 

-snip-

I'm with you all the way. I got Celene ruling alone when I first blindly stumbled through the game and didn't really even understand that there were options besides just her or Gaspard. I read Masked Empire between that and my canon re-do, and let Briala rule behind Gaspard. It turned out to be so satisfying in so many ways. (Also because book Gaspard is way cooler than game Gaspard, in spite of still being a huge a*****e.) Celene was actually my least favorite of the main cast when all was said and done.

 

Forever sad about Felassan, cool but dangerous dork that he was. I'm way more curious about finding out whether it really was Solas or some other elven pantheon horror we haven't met yet who did him in than about discovering how the Solavellan relationship ends (which is pretty much a foregone conclusion in my mind, sadly). Hopefully Trespasser will give us a couple more hints about what was really going on with Mr. Slow Arrow, even if he's not mentioned specifically.

Is it bad if I say I don't care who dies as long as it's not me or Solas?? Ok yea sorry I'm evil 

 

But really none of the other character really resonated with me. I would be totally bummed and a bit shocked but I wouldn't be that sad. Cullen or Varric dying would really make me upset since they're just such nice happy guys but all the rest I'm kinda meh about ... especially Cole. 

 

My cannon is spirit Cole so he doesn't seem human or "real" enough to make me sad if he died, especially since his spirit-self would probably just return to the fade anyways. If I chose to make him more human though, I would probably cry like a little girl. He's just so sweet 

 

The one thing that would break my heart though would be a hardened Solas (kinda like Leliana) where all he cares about are his goals. That would break me into a million little pieces. In a way, it would be kinda like the Solas we knew from the base game was just a mask to cover up his real intentions. I wouldn't be able to handle that.

I feel like it's flat and even though I'm making her feel terrible maybe it's not vivid enough yet. These are more editing things that come with polishing later, but it needs the final pieces in place first. I've been here many times.

I know the flatness, I'd write something, feeling everything so STRONGLY in the heat of the moment, then sometimes I come back to it and... all of a sudden it's meh. Not badly written but not evoking feelings. (Not saying this is the case for you necessarily, it just reminds of having that experience.)

So I actually trash entirely the meh parts (sometimes it's just a few lines of dialogue) and rewrite them. I don't know if there's a way to edit to 'intensify' things, would definitely be a tIme saver.

After those tweets from July about characters' emotional breakdowns were going around someone pointed out that Epler did a lot of cinematics work on the Iron Bull. So.....hope? For us. Not the Bull Riders.

It's my biggest fear.

guys this is really random but I really wanna read a fanfic where a Solas fangirl falls into Thedas somehow 

 

I read Overloaded, which was amazing btw (check it out on AO3), but I really need some more o' that to heal my slowly breaking heart

 

anyone know about any? 

 

edit: or honestly any good solas fic because this is an emergency and the feels are crashing hard (especially after I commented about a hardened Solas. just thinking about it is hurting me)

Evie does know some Dragon Age.

User: Will Solas be okay?

Eviebot: Okay? Okay.

User: Will Solas still love Lavellan?

Eviebot: Yes, I will always love you.

User: Solas, is that you?

Eviebot: I don't know... Just leave me alone.

User: Vhenan, please....

Eviebot: I can't... I don't know what he feels for me.

User: Love.

Eviebot: Love. You don't know what live is?

User: I said love.

Eviebot: Me neither.

User: Sera was never an agreeable girl.

Eviebot: You think he will be mine?

User: Sera?

Eviebot: Sera quue?

User: She would always like to say, why change the past when you could own this day?

Eviebot: She's a rogue and a thief and she'll tempt your fate.

I don't but I'll check out Overloaded. I'm sticking to the light fluffy stuff this week.

Editing process in terms of rewriting and replacing words or partial phrases to get things where I intend. Or close. It happens a lot with my inevitable endless poking. It's often the way of the draft where things need to be tended to later. I spent some time polishing and changing earlier but I think I need to draft the last part first even though it's in my head. I've already decided to change the setting and how I might bring Solas in.

 

This one thing I wrote, the last thing I really, really loved, was written one way first, I wasn't sure where to end it and then it was just refined and refined and I must have switched the position of entire paragraphs and parts of paragraphs ten times. The end of that one was very close to the beginning for most of the duration. (That's this, it's solely about my Lavellan/the early days of first love.)

It's really good you won't be disappointed

Well I have been brain storming a solas fanfic (well fanfic-ish) Its about Lavellan's inner world (basically whats going on in her head) about solas. I don't want to type exactly how I am going to write it, but like I said its just a thought.

sounds interesting I've written some fanfiction myself but I found that it just made me more depressed than before. Hearing a Lavellan's inner turmoil about all the Solas drama would be really interesting though. You should write it

lol That's not evil at all. On the base level that's how I feel. I'm so desperate (strong word but the only one that comes to my tired brain atm) for a little hope for these two that the entire Inquisition could lie in ruins and I'd be okay. Cole and Dorian would take me a long time to get over though. If there is no hope for them, I probably won't play the game again. I'm one of those where I find a LI (Ali and Fen) and can't romance anyone else. My stubborn brain. I did finally play a male for the first time in a DA game, just for Dorian.

I'm just a hopeless romantic. Where there's a will, there's a way kind of thing, and some heartache can be worth it. I know they've made no promise for anything and even stated his story role comes first, but to me it would be a shame to leave it ended as beautiful and heartfelt as it was.

And I don't see them making Solas cold. Even if he is I could see it being a front, like after the break up where he feels he has to shut down or else he'll be distracted but a few dialogues could crack that open and be something special, even for those that were friends with him. He can tell himself he doesn't care but that never makes it true. And Weekes seems to love tugging at heart strings too much to not give us something, no matter how it ends. I'm very tempted to spoil myself first though. I just....ugh I don't know.

I'd say go ahead. It can help you work out feelings. I've written some stuff like this too.

I feel exactly the same way. I'm also a hopeless romantic who tends to get fixated on one person and never gives up. It's happened to me many times irl and it was always very very depressing. I'll never really find a DA romance as amazing as Solas' I think. He's basically ruined them all for me. Besides that though ...

 

It's not that I think he'll truly become cold, I just believe he might act that way. I mean he does have a foreign soul/entity living in him. That must effect his personality somehow. 

 

But I do agree with you about Weeks. He's not that evil, if you really think about it. He cares about meaning and depth, and writing Solas as completely cold towards a romanced Lavellan would probably diminish the importance of their reunion, which is something I'm sure Weekes doesn't want to do. 

 

And yea I'm totally going to spoil it for myself the moment youtube playthroughs are posted. I just need to know what happens!!
