Patrick Weekes didn't deny Cillian was Solas's spy. Guilty until proven innocent I say.
That's a load of bs and I know it.
And that anti-ancient elfy stuff? Gotta be a ruse.
Yep.
I just want to say how I love that you still carry the flame for Team Lipgloss.

Come to think of it, I remember going bwwwwwuuuuuh? when I first met that one elf in the Skyhold garden. The herbalist, I think? She was... very cagey about everything. But when nothing happened all the way up to the Cory fight, I figured it was just random background flavor.
Now I'm looking back at all the elves with the suspicious eye of a racist Orlesian yelling about knife-ears. Man, the modern elves are going to be hosed if anyone breathes a word about the agents of Fen'Harel business to anyone.
That's part of why I'm not fond of the position the writers have put us in. =/
We can't join Solas' mission even if we might want to (to be clear, I don't), but if when he fails and the world finds out what he tried to do, what some elves (even if it's a small minority) tried to help him do, they'll be stranded in a world where humans are still not only in charge, but will now outright hate and distrust them, and likely punish them all for what a few tried to do. 
Does anyone have a flycam footage of the "Solas doing something with Lavellan's hand and giving her a gentle kiss" scene? I'd love to see it.
Found a cool tumblr thing. Apparently Solas' expression when he says the Tranquil line is another one of those that are different for a romanced Inquisitor.
I love how he says "you must understand" and I'm all like "who the F are you comparing to the tranquil??"
But I think it's him really thinking about how mistaken he was, because in from of him is the only person who could draw him from the Fade, someone who was real. In the friend one he's matter-of-fact, you might of shown him you were people, but the love one is sad because how could he have ever thought of you as tranquil?

And I looked him up on the wiki (I don't play multiplayer) it says he values all life.

So does Solas. He just happens to value his people more 
(Sorry. I'm feeling particularly grumpy with the egghead ATM and compensating by writing smut 
)
I hate to be a stick in the mud, but if you fly cam that scene Solas is walking toward the stairs definitely not the bed. He's too far to the left if you are facing the bed. I know it's fly cam, but jus' sayin'. Sure they could have done it at some point, but he wasn't walking toward the bed. Maybe he was going back down the stairs to lock the door. Ok, I'm done being a butthead.

I think it was 100% intentional that he came across as some sort of uppity ancient elf snob with that line. Just like with explaining the vallaslin, where if Lavellan gives an angry/hurt response ("Why would you tell me something like this?"), he is truly baffled, as if it never crossed his mind something like this could be painful to hear. I think it's meant to show just how disconnected he can be from modern Thedas.

Riiight. So does Solas, in the main game 
Edit: 
on that.
I realize now I become a Solas hater (or at least a Solas criticizer) when I drink. Good to know.

I was thinking the exact same thing -.- this is in between point is going to hurt a lot of elves.
The humans and dwarves fear what could happen and it will cause them to lash out on the elves. Then many elves will grow more bitter towards them and it will only isolate them worst, and then they will think "maybe Fen'Harel isn't wrong." AND THEN END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!

I'll never let go of it just like Rose never lets go of Jack's memory.
Sooo um what's the general opinion on whether or not Solas is going to help modern elves as well?
Think he's going to accept them into the new elfy world order?
this is really important to me. I want to believe that he at least has a reasonable amount respect/pity/sympathy for the ancestors of the people whose livelihoods he destroyed

Her name is Elan Ve'mal. Someone plagiarized her work and you get a war table mission to sort it out.

Guys, does anyone know where I can get the top middle armor set in game:
Spoiler
I know people are doing it with cheat engines, but I'm wondering since the Sentinal armor (bottom right) is from a war table mission, whether it's possible normally.
0.0 Me too! I wanna know too!

I don't think so. Otherwise, why does he say to Lavellan her people will die? Or why, for that matter, wouldn't he save Lavellan and have her join him as well?
I'm pretty sure he's just using them because of their common race and because they're a vulnerable part of the population.

My initial thought was that the ancient sentinel type elves would weather it fine and be all right... and at least a portion of mortal everyday elves would too. We can already see where the divide would form, and it would end up being no better than ancient Arlathan at that point. I can't imagine Solas wouldn't care about that, but who knows?

Hahaha, I feel like I've used that sort of logic before. This is very important to me, it's just that other thing is more important!
Oooh what about?

Hahaha, that's how I got into fanfic as well 
And that's how I started writing again for the first time in ~10 years. And that's how I learned what NSFW means.

Well, now you've ruined everything.
(Yes, the angle is headed out, you can see the path a bit even in the standard cutscene, but such are the ways of headcanon.)

It bothers me too.
I thought all elves would just regain their connection to the Fade and immortality once he took down the Veil. Then he said, "the return of my people means the end of yours." Reflexive wince aside, I thought maybe he meant the end of their culture or their current way of life (he does constantly throw Lavellan's Dalish heritage in her face enough times ), but now I'm not so sure...
I'd like to think he means to help most/all modern elves, otherwise what's the point?

They started on the stairs and then fade-stepped to the bed in the middle of the act?
There's already a fic like this

I would love to read a nice long post or watch a nice YouTube video about theories on what would happen if the Veil was destroyed.

Don't let anyone ruin your headcanon! It's yours, you interpret things whatever way you want to. That's the entire point of headcanon.
I don't think so. Otherwise, why does he say to Lavellan her people will die?
but doesn't he say that to every inquisitor?
and who exactly is "her people"
are they the general population of Thedas which she's saved from a near-fade apocalypse?
in this video
he says that he can't help the elven people "oppressed as they are now." he's talking about the modern elves, right?
I just hope he doesn't go all ancient elf supremest. I really can't stand people have superiority complexes like that, or are racist at all for that matter.

I've been shamelessly dancing in the smutty fanfiction dumpster since I was fourteen and neck-deep in the Harry Potter fandom. That's how I learned what NSFW meant, though I think we called explicit fanfiction lemons back in those days? Can't remember why.
Writing smut is fun and challenging, but kind of weird still. It's like...how many ways can you possibly describe f***ing before it starts to sound really weird?
Hahaha, that's how I got into fanfic as well
Who knows, maybe it could even make me write. I did scribble out a monstrous deformity a stick figure Solas on Snapchat one night when I was bored.
I'm glad it got you writing again though, that's really great. I love writing, but I don't do it often enough myself

I can't write smut. I think part of it is being willing to be really vulnerable with your sexual fantasies and such, and have really wild, tittilating ones. I barely even try, since in my headcanon Solas is a gentle lover, who takes his sweet time with every lace and buckle and regards Lavellan's every curve with so much awe, as if she is the biggest wonder since a bake shop opened for the first time in Arlathan.
