I just ate more than stray candy and I'm having my first coffee or actual drink at all of the day right now, aside from water after waking (and only after being warned by my body). I don't know how I managed to wait this long. But now that I'm operating at a slightly more normal level, here are some links.

Follow a few of these and more will start being suggested to or you'll be able to pick some up from what they reblog.

 

And I may actually try and at least write some more notes for what I'm planning to write. I have two things pulling at me and something to attend tonight, so maybe by the time I get home, I'll know which I want to write first.

Just leave Solas out of the party for the Hinterlands (except obviously at the start).  He nets so much approval in those quests.

 

Assquisitor Cadash thinks people should solve their own damn problems.  She's also going to be using Fair Weather Friends to double disapproval.  That should cancel out any approval gain she accidently gets.

 

It's not?! Really?

 

Also good luck. I've had a hard timing playing my one Inquisitor Solas doesn't get along with too.

 

Apparently.  The 15 second version of the scene gave no option to redeem him, after all.

[Illyria]

He said the way he'll anounce it on Facebook is by photoshopping his initials on a State Alchemist pocket watch, and just posting that, no explanations given. 

 

He. Is. A. Keeper.

 

Tell him he's awesome and he has a fan.

Congrats!!!  (late to the wizard party as always!)

I'm actually way more invested in the AU than I am the Solavellan in Looking Glass. Curisoity/Library is my OTP. I'm slightly amazed Feynite is able to write so much and so quickly, really. My problem is that I write really slowly if at all.

 

 

 

I'm invested in everything, which is a great feeling I haven't felt about a work of fiction in a while  . Same about writing slow though. It's all the editing that I need to stop doing while writing drafts I think.

 

 

=D

I have been trying to think of ways to get better though. I know there's the whole practice makes perfect......but is there like a site or place that has good writing excercises or something?

If that makes sense.

 

This book has been a great help to me! http://www.amazon.co...e/dp/0060777052

 

It teaches you how to write by looking at what others have done and pointing out their technique and stuff like that. That's really the best way to learn I've found aside from actually writing, for me at least, since I like learning by looking at examples instead of just theories.

CONGRATS!!!!

Well that's if you don't bother to talk to him. A Inquisitor he doesn't like can still ask him questions, the option might show up then?

 I can never decide if this emoticon is a partyface or a wizard.

 

Clearly, it is the best mage spec out there, the Party Wizard.

...I just had the strange urge to draw Solas as the party wizard.

Congratulations!

Do itttttttt

...I just had the strange urge to draw Solas as the party wizard.

I didn't know I needed it in my life. I need it now. 

*whispers* Do it.

[S.W.]

congrats, droso and droso's husband!

(I'm a big fan of all those party wizards too)

 

It's not an option.

 

On related note: about to start my assquisitor Cadash.  Wish me luck in getting Solas to hate me.

 

activate the Fair Weather Friends trial and never take him anywhere in the Hinterlands, and you should be fine.

[Wynele]

Speaking of writing, I apparently started a story.

 

The entire contents of that story, so far?

 

 

 

I often write quotes for use later or stray notes but I have no idea what that dialogue was supposed to even become.

 

I have so much fan fiction that I've never released into the wild.  I tend to write snippets or scenes, a lot of which floats around in my head for days before ending up on paper...which then may or may not actually find itself into an actual story.  

 

Currently, I'm working on a...thing.., where Solas meets my HOF Surana.  Surana knows who is he, though Solas doesn't know she knows--or maybe he does and is messing with her as she is so obviously messing with him.  Haven't decided.  

 

No real plot.  They run into each other for reasons and start talking for reasons.  It may eventually grow into a real story.  

 

But, yup, a lot of my stories are just notes or even just lines I've written.

All this talk about scent makes me think of the only reason why I'm glad the cold I've been dealing this week left me with a slight cough - because I can shamelessly keep a bottle of this: http://www.aflofarm....gories,refid,43- and not really look that weird when I uncork it just to get a whiff of that smell (and occasionally a sip). 

 

This stuff smells divine (and I'm not the only one in love in it).

 

... So, obviously, now that I'm spending time being surrounded with this divine stuff and reading all the comments about what Solas smalls like, I wonder how close my brain is to 'inprinting' my favorite cough syrup smell on him xD

 

Which, from the content description on the bottle apparently smells mostly of thyme, primula root and guaiacolsulfonate

 

 

As for my Lavellan - I headcanon that she's been using some water with herbs mixed to keep herself fresh - some recipe she picked at one point and experimented with a bit, with one of the ingredients being the dawn lotus, so I suppose she smells at least partially of that.

[flabbadence]

yes please

[Sable Rhapsody]

Well that's if you don't bother to talk to him. A Inquisitor he doesn't like can still ask him questions, the option might show up then?

 

No.  An Inquisitor with negative approval can still talk to him, but does not have the option to redeem him.  Starting at 9:12--

 

[Garnet]

Please do.

Do itttttttt

I didn't know I needed it in my life. I need it now. 

*whispers* Do it.

I'll try later.  I'm packing up all my books atm! (Does anyone have a spare bag of holding I can borrow?)

Awesome, much thanks!

We have something similar here and I just LOVE the stuff. ^^ (So have a Like for that - I'm new, I have plenty to throw around. )

 

As for the scent of my Lavellan ... I have to think about that.

 

Also out of curiosity I just watched a video of the Fade Kiss in my native language on youtube. It was horrible. The VA of Solas in particular. Completely dull, no emotions whatsoever. Urgh. I had to listen to the original Solas for a while after that to get that bad sound out of my ears.

[Cee]

What language was that, Aneira?

 

I've only heard French and German so far.

[Aneira]

It's the latter - German.

 

How did you like it?

No native VA for me and I thank the Maker for that. 

Out of curiosity I went to check it in German. It was... strange... to hear different voice. And I don't think it really fits Solas. Maybe I'm just too used to his English VA. After all they spoiled us with VA in English version. They're amazing.
