So, my hubby still hasn't finished his PC playthrough of Inquisition, so I'm still keeping Trespasser spoilers from him. Last week we were watching "Daredevil" on Netflix, and there was this moment... Wilson Fisk (aka Kingpin, a bald antagonist with sympathetic motives) said, "I am not a monster," to his girlfriend. I busted out laughing. My husband just looked at me like I was nuts.
I told him, "You'll see." He has no clue.
Now I find my self rooting that somehow this Fisk character can be redeemed. Sure he pounded a guy's head into a disgusting bloody mess with his own bare hands, but there's still good in him, maybe? Even Vader turned away from the dark side at the last, right? That's me, pulling for the lost causes of geekdom since September 2015. Thanks Solas.
In other news, I saw these gifs on De Carabas's tumblr. It kinda drives a point home about Mythal versus the other ancients we've encountered. It's something to think about. I'm suspicious of Mythal, but if Mythal really sees Lavellan as one who does the people proud, then why would she allow Solas to take her power? She would have to know what he plans to do, and that his plans would endanger The (modern) People. If Mythal truly does protect "her people" then Solas tearing down the veil must be part of her plan, and she must know how to protect the modern elves from the Big Magic Doomtastrophe.
Yup, maybe everything will be fine no matter what because Mythal endures. Our choices will once again not really matter. Hooray! ![]()
I'll just butt myself in, thanks to Sable's heroic editing skills chapter 13 of Bookkeeper is up now.
And this was drawn for the writer's forum, but meh, can as well drop the doodle here too ![]()

Lovely drawing. The shading on the hands really caught my eye. I admire anyone who can draw hands well. Hands are my enemy. Your art is also reminding me of a question which recently actually came out of my mouth: "Why don't men wear capri pants anymore?" Solas and his capri pants...that's what they are you know? Capri pants.

I do wear capri pants, if that counts? But I am not a guy, true.
My better half would probably rather eat a scorpion than get into capri pants. ![]()
[I like hands. Hands can be expressive. But they are damn hard on more detailed drawing, I agree. This is just a line and scribble shadows on the lower halves of fingers to make it look more alive. Thank you

Well, the thing with Solas is that he has a very lean build - so while there are things he wouldn't be able to pull of as effectively (can you imagine him in, say, Cullen's armor?), since they'd be too heavy for his build, he can pull off capri pants and generally tight-fitting garments
Especially that quite a few people notice that his legs are actually quite nice ![]()

He does have broad shoulders though. I can see him in Cullen's armor if it's fitted for him.

That's the thing - Cullen's armor doesn't accentuate broad-shoulderness much. It's mostly hidden underneath that garment with the 'mane' at the top, with fabric covering the sides. Basically Solas would look literally like a popsickle if he's worn it - large at the top and mostly straight and then, suddenly, those slender legs
Solas generally looks good if the armor tapers down or he's wearing a belt that gathers any excessive material at the lean waist. That's what makes his shoulder 'pop'
(though in general it seems that elves seem to prefer pretty top-heavy aesthetic, with even some female armors having buffed shoulders, but the armor underneath is still usually pretty form-hugging and smooth/fluid in terms of shape of the outline)
Also - he has broad shoulders but generally he's much lighter than, say, a human. So if the armor wasn't specifically fitted, it would just look too heavy on him.
(sorry, designer talk^^;...)

Tight around the legs, thighs, butt, other places ![]()
They added modesty flaps to his sweater. Flaps.
Wind gusts in Haven, everyone.

Wait.. when have Abelas and Cassandra started to become a thing?
I must have missed that. I must admit the idea cracks me up ![]()
..Anyway, I come with a little gift (maybe?).
When Trespasser came out I recorded and shared over the forums some mp3s from the game.. People overall appreciated although some guy made me notice that the quality was not very good. That was because I recorded them as videos and then converted them to mp3s in some crappy software..
Anyway now we have the OST so there isn't much need for it, except for the beloved "Dread Wolf" track that Bioware has forgotten (
) to include in the OST..
There is quite a good version on YT, however the person who recorded it probably just muted the dialogues, but you can hear the music decreasing when Solas and Inq are speaking - so it was pissing me off, cause I go slightly OCD in these situations xD
So I decided to re-record it, and thanks to a mix of Audacity and freeze frame, the audio is clearer and doesn't decrease
Plus my Lavellan is no longer speaking at the end of the mp3, leaving the file clean.
Long story short: if you want it it's here: https://www.dropbox....NCQtROIrka?dl=0
Let me know if it's better than before
(I hope so, if not blame Audacity
)

Thank you so much! I love this version of the Trespasser theme ![]()

I always seem to have perfect timing when I decide to check on this thread.

Don't even say that Cee! Don't.
I can't even think of drawing Solas without getting all shy. The clothes-on-the-floor is as far as I'll go
.
Also, I'm currently working on something for a Christmas present, it's not DA related though.
I like to headcanon that Solas stitched on the modesty flaps when he realized he was effectively stuck with the Inquisition. Wouldn't want the gremlins getting distracted by his glorious elvhen physique!
Of course, Solas being Solas, his brilliant plan is ruined by something simple: wind
But is it really the wind? Or is he happy to see Lavellan? ![]()

It's not like this place is full of total enablers and people who encourage others to do things. Lucky that we're not that sort of place, right? ![]()

No not this thread, so she should be safe from such enablers here right? Should be being the operative word. ![]()
I don't know if any are interested in the Western AU, but there is a second chapter of cheese uploaded. I make no apologies for smart ass Felassan or Solas.
