I think he's referring to, uh, Cole's dagger.
I'm not good with dirty things either. I am Merrill IRL.
Another Merrill here. Are you talking about Cole's actual dagger or Cole's.. "dagger"?
I am very confused.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW D:
But his 'dagger' would make more sense. Unless Candy is thief who wants to steal his daggers.
*suddenly gets it*
Well would you look at that, it only took me 2 hours to realize what Bull means.
I still don't get why Cole wants to lift his feet though. Maybe I'll crack that nut in another 2 hours.
I interrupt this lovely conversation to drop a picture of the Solas pumpkin I carved yesterday. Pumpkins are my canvas. I hope all of you like it.
Lovely job! Man, I need to get a dremel, so I have more dimension in my pumpkins like that. I do always wonder why people carve their pumpkins so early though. Mine start to shrivel by late night on Halloween even if I stick them in the fridge until show time. Are you planning on putting this out on Halloween or was this just to share online?
I was thinking of carving Solas, but I don't want to imply that he is scary. He is not a monster, after all.
I might do Flemeth instead.

This is so well done!

Full conversation:
As usual, I'm Merrill and don't get it.

Full conversation:
Iron Bull: So Cole, you're polite, you're good in a fight, and your heart's in the right place.Cole: It is? Good.Iron Bull: I've got a plan. I think this could get you sorted out, get both feet on the ground.Cole: I have to lift my feet, or the rocks make noise when I walk.Iron Bull: Yes.... When we get back, you're going to spend an evening with a nice lady named Candy.Cole: Can I lift my feet?Iron Bull: She's gonna lift a lot more than that.Iron Bull: So how was Candy? You two have a good time?Cole: Yes. She danced. Then I untangled the hurt that made her angry at her mother.Cole: I helped her write a letter to send back home. She said I could call her Marguerite, the name didn't hurt anymore.Iron Bull: Well, that was five royals well-spent.----He wants to lift his feet because Bull said "get both feet on the ground".Also, Bull payed Candy so by that point it became obvious she's a prostitute XDSecond time I heard this dialogue I understood what she's going to lift...I used to be so innocent but I only hang out with guys and my friends in particular are extra-pervy.They made so many jokes at my expense just because I didn't get itI'm only half-Merrill in my current point of life and I kind want to keep at least part of my innocence >_>.
I love the payoff to that banter.

Thank you. I do it the old fashion way with a linoleum cutter. Been debating about getting a dremel for a few years. I carve a handful of pumpkins every year so I space mine out through the month to get them all done. I still have a handful to carve and Solas happened to be next in my line up. There's always a pumpkin out on display at my place. I wipe them down with clorox wipes and then give them a lysol shower to stave off mold. We'll see if Solas makes it to Halloween.

Thank you.
Oh man, I am in awe of that pumpkin. Well done!
Thank you.
I feel like I've abandonned this thread, but I'm still lurking people! I just feel like I've nothing to add at the moment ![]()

Merrill is the most relatable character, I swear.
This reminds me of the time I first went drinking. I had just turned 20, and had previously not cared about alcohol, but wanted to hang out with a new group of people who were going out. I had exactly two passion fruit flavoured ciders - rekorderlig, those expensive scandinavian ones, because they're low in content and just taste like sharper, cooler fruit squash, and was already really drunk - my volume control is awful anyway, but it had completely gone in this loud bar, and I was stumbling around and waving about a lot. One of the women there offered to buy people more drinks, and I was like 'yeaaah!' thinking she was offerring free booze, not realising she meant to take my money because the bar queue was horrendously long. People thought it was sweet and endearing, bless her.
They were convinced I was only just 18 years old, and many of them didn't find out otherwise until months later. I don't think that impression fully faded for most of them.
I tend to be the slightly lost child, the Merrill of most of my friendship groups. I got asked my age yesterday whilst chatting with a bunch of friends (I didn't know what a 'dive bar' was), and was asked how old I was. Apparently I come off as perpetually two years younger than I am. It never ends
I dub thee 'Thread Cutie Pie' (I got dubbed Cutie Pie by Delphine. That gives me the legal right to dub others with this title. It's law, look it up).

This is many levels of awesome.
I interupt the scheduled posting to bring you grad student Solas. (This is how I imagine him in Sable's AU) http://salesart.tumblr.com/
salesman, how can you be so freakin' talented in everything???

Edit: And another one by the same artist, slightly NSFW for Solas' bare chest. ![]()

I don't talk much either, just randomly now and then. But I still stalk/lurk/creep on this thread too.

It was that artist's work of him in a turtleneck that inspired the grad school AU in the first place
Yes, in my head salesman is the official illustrator for your grad student!Solas. ![]()
Edit: TOP? Well, I've got just the thing for you! This is another unofficial grad student!Solas illustration. This is how I imagine him walking in the rain with Lavellan. http://needapotion.t...ioned-by-resoan

It's a book called Petticoats and Promises. I searched lesbian Regency romances just to see what was out there since now I'm aware I actually want this. There's a pdf with the first couple of chapters on the site. http://www.bellabook...34223-prod.htmlthat I was referring to but I think I may read this.
*looks at ToP art* That works SO well. ![]()
Anyhow, this was my silly image that I made last night. Christmas bottles have been released, and this was exactly how the shelf was, which made me stop and laugh. I put it up in a silly post this morning http://modernscribe....urked-nearby-on

Another Merrill here. Are you talking about Cole's actual dagger or Cole's.. "dagger"?

His dagger.
Someone borked down AO3.
Boo.
*wakes up and walks into Blanket Fort*
So, I really should not have listened to feelsy music last night before bed.
Because I figured out exactly how I want to do something later in my Zevellan fic.......and it made me cry a little just thinking about it. I will probably cry for real when I write it.
I mean, in one way I guess I should have listened to it, because I guess it's good I know what I want to do and it be feelsy.
But GD Zevran. GD.
I feel completely incapable of writing fluff now. And that's what the next chapter is suppose to be.
*sigh*

The feels corner is always open. I think I've got a permanent little setup here to go back and forth from.
Whatever you're settling on, it sounds like you had a good moment creatively. And that's rewarding even when it's painful. I joke about hating my characters but I've cried writing certain things too.

Have a hug!
And we're all probably going to need a hug when we get to that part. I'll prepare myself.
Maybe writing out a very rough draft will help let all the sads out, so you can get some fluff ideas?

Me too. I've cried, I've had regrets, and I've felt like this depraved monster coming up with some things that I just knew were right for the story.
