Oh no you didn't.
I thought I escaped these feelings in junior high!!!
Well now I've successfully linked feels on multiple fronts. This is how we survive the next five days.

This....sort of looks like his voice actor.
A bizarre notion - what makes you think that any society currently in Thedas as a justice system that can in any capacity make a just judgment on whatever Solas might have done?
He even mocks "human justice" - and rightfully so - when he sees how a man would be hanged in Val Royeaux in place of Thom Rainier. What's more, Inquisitor can later show the holes in the system, by putting Rainier under Inquisition's jurisdiction through Josephine and her favors, and judge him however he or she sees fit.
I think its more about upholding the ideal of justice here. Even if the current systems aren't perfect, justice should still be aimed for.
And I don't think mocking the orlesian justice system in that case is all that accurate. It isn't as if they were hanging an innocent man in a bid to draw Thom out. It was one of Ranier's men, one of the men who still participated in the killing of that family/children. Just following orders doesn't cut it, imo. Orelsian justice was doing alright with that guy's case, as far as we see.
Everything I've experienced with Solas on a personal level tells me he's a compassionate, good person who's gotten a bad wrap.
In world of thedas volume 2, there are hints that an old legend about an elven leader fighting to end slavery got merged together with Shartan's own legend in more modern times, resulting in the Canticle of Shartan. In-game there is evidence for a good side to Fen'Harel: like the prominence of his statue EVERYWHERE in the Dales, wolves being closely related to protection with the Emerald Knights back in the days of the Dales, the in-game codex musing about how suspicious/odd/un-scholarly it is to get all your pantheon lore from an oral tradition from a single Keeper (who existed during/just after the fall of the Dales), the seeming change in the meaning of Fen'Harel's name from rebel to liar that occurred around that same time frame of 800 years ago, at the fall of the Dales.
All of that leaves open the possibility to me that Fen'Harel was not always the Trickster God to these people he is now, responsible for their every woe. I think they loved and respected him, once, both during their slavery in Tevinter and their kingdom in the Dales. They used to remember him well. This hatred of him is a relatively recent development and, based on having met the man, I think it lacks merit.
Whether I'm right or not, and whether any of the above even matters in the face of whatever plans this last, possibly desperate, resort of this good man results in, I'll have to see. IMO, it all comes down to those questions we can ask Solas and the answers he has. i hope they're some good ones.

does it at least sort of look like solas? ![]()

As a male Inquisitor to Solas who was his friend in Trespasser :-
"Remember when you left Thedas? Before all this, before Fen'Harel? You were gone two years. Two years I waited, hoping that you wouldn't come back. Each year, I took a holiday. I went to Antiva, there's this cafe, on the bay of Rialto. Every fine evening, I'd sit there and order a Fernet Branca. I had this fantasy, that I would look across the tables and I'd see you there, with a wife and maybe a couple of kids. You wouldn't say anything to me, nor me to you. But we'd both know that you'd made it, that you were happy. I never wanted you to come back to Thedas. I always knew there was nothing here for you, except pain and tragedy. And I wanted something more for you than that. I still do."
And then they hug, right?
lol
I did love that speech by Alfred. Good choice.
So i did a thing on guid wars 2
I'm actually sorta proud. And embarrassed. But mostly proud.
Of all the outfits to steal from Skyhold, he chooses the nutcracker gear?
... i mean yes! Good job on the toon creation! lol (No, srsly, good job. Esepcially since GW2 doesn't actually have elves.
)
At least one of you gets me. *dramatic sigh*
*bows*
Okay, I certainly did open a can of Solavellan feels.
I should go for a walk. Forgive me for another hellspiral song.

Yep!
UUUUUH, I just sit here and am all like:

Thanks you guys XD I really wanted to show you him.

Oh dang it, I love this song. Why would you do this to me, Cee? Why not post Climibing the Walls, while you're at it. ![]()
I dedicate this from Lavellan to Solas, in our collective long wait.
My husband was sitting across the couch from me, not seeing what I'm doing on my laptop, when I started playing this song. Without any explanation from me, he said, "Solas, quit playing games with my heart!"

I broke Evie. I'll say something and it'll say 'thinking...' for a second. Then nothing. It'll just say 'say to Evie'. She doesn't respond. My incessant ramblings about Solas have rendered her catatonic.

You corrupted her!
Edit: Top Solas. Have some creative Solas. I love this.

I really, really hope Lavellan has the option to go with Solas wherever he's going off to. Don't leave her behind again, you jerk >_>
We need some more funny art to liven our hearts like this beautiful one from vhenantrash...
It made me cry GOOD tears, not BITTER ones!

Maybe now she'll finally stop hitting on me.

See, your husband understands. This is good. ![]()

Aaaaaand now I'm listening to it. But I shall spare you all and take that walk now.
I totally understand. I'm right here with you. I want to know but then I went to go in completely unspoiled .
But then I want to know
-cries a little-
Hold me?

We'll get through this... somehow. ![]()
Actually, I feel silly to realize I have to finish my canon/completionist game (again) to do Trespasser. I'm sitting right before the final fight, so I guess I'll have that to keep me busy tonight. I went back to play the other two DLC with Solas there, though I do think they are better done post-game anyway.

Vhenan trash is the best. I should go back and read their hobo!Solas posts to distract myself from all the angst. First time I read them I almost died from choking on my drink while laughing.

omg we desperately need a return of hobo!Solas because it will make the tears be good, not bitter Weekes-inspired ones!
I am so depressed D: Why is a fictional RELATIONSHIP bothering me so much? Make it stop!
