...and there is the plotbunny for another fanfiction...

A question: Is it possible to start a romance with another character after
Spoiler
I just finished my first playthrough yesterday, and somehow missed all the romances, and now I'm trying to decided who to go for on my second try. I wanted to romance Solas, originally, but now that I know all this stuff about him, I think I'd like my Inquisitor to end up with someone less heartbreaking. But if there's a way to get two romances (like you could in Origins), that would be ideal.
I think you can romance Cullen, not sure, I got the prompt but couldn't make my quizzy abandon her baldie smexy elf


Solas's romance doesn't 'confirm' until the very scene
Cullen also requires you to not romance anyone else. So I assume they have that hook in to make sure you are intending to go forward with Cullen, even though you have engaged the romance plot flags with Solas.
I think it's a sign.

Didn't someone mention that in the last romance scene if you

Ooh, interesting! It's unfortunate that you'd have to dump Solas for no good reason before that locking-in scene, though (I don't know if "I just like Cullen better" counts as a good enough reason
)
Solas's romance doesn't 'confirm' until the very scene
Spoiler, if my read is correct. [Which is towards the end of the game.]
That's when the achievement for romancing a character in game popped on my screen.
Bonus Solas:

I ended up putting all my recorded scenes on my phone, so I can, um, watch Solas everywhere...
I might be a tad obsessed.
..but come on, that scene when you find Skyhold is totes worth watching a hundred times, gave me chills, man.

First outside the Fade. Black and Sera got Solas to confess to some fade dating ![]()

Hello, fellow Solasmancers
I've been a lurker here for some time now, while not active on the Forums since DAII.
I've started reading this thread more since finishing the game, for obvious reasons. As so many others, looking for comfort, consolation or the tiniest sliver of hope.
I've been intrigued by Solas since the first information about him was released. I've always had a thing for wise-cracking, middle-aged elven gentlemen, apparently (rooting for Sand in Neverwinter Nights 2 and developed an unhealthy obsession over first enchanter Orsino, starting the first forum thread about him).
Solas sounded fantastic and I, for one, praised his bald head but didn't expect him to actually be romanceable until the official announcement. Suffice to say, I was overjoyed. The romance in the game was beautiful and I share more traits with the character than I expected
After the recent tweets I'm more hopeful for the future, but it was reading this thread that helped me get over some of the heartache. I'm planning my second playthrough right now and I'm finding it impossible to dive into any of the other romances. I guess it's Solas for life...
Thank you all for being here and easing the pain. We're in this together and together we can make it until this is resolved!
I know this song isn't completely fitting, but it makes me think of the whole Solavellan affair:

Haha I did the same thing! I love Solas he was written so beautifully.
Spoiler
Also, I can't be the only one who thinks that Solas actually looks a little wolfish. His sharp features, piercing stare at times... And the ears, of course.

I don't think any of us were prepared for falling head over heels for him. e-e and yes @dragonette, everyone was commenting on how feline he looked when he ah, emulated a more canine animal, hah. I adore his necklace and was kind of sad we weren't able to give him a gift like I heard you could with other romances.
I think I would have died if he had given her his wolf jaw necklace.... WHICH I HAVE NOW ADDED TO MY HEADCANON THAT HE DOES.
So how is all my American buddies Thanksgiving? Its also my bday so I'm going to forgo working on my paper and write some more fanfic and get it posted. :I Who needs to worry about school? Solas is love, Solas is life! \0A0/

I love it when someone finishes the game and immediately comes to the Solas thread.
SAME LOL
True story, I have been listening to She Wolf [David Guetta] lately and always thought of them, despite the fact that it doesn't match up. Could just be the wolf imagery, or the idea of chasing after something dangerous.
Cole says:
Old pain, shadows forgotten from dreams too real. This side is slow and heavy, but here is what can change
Isn't that about Solas ?
I don't believe it is about Solas. Cole's greeting dialogues [all?] seem to be references to movies. On reddit, that line about shadows is marked as being from the Matrix, possibly.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised if they mixed in spoilers to the game AND spoilers to films.
Some other examples of Cole's dialogue: http://www.reddit.co..._list_of_coles/
Cole does have a line for Leliana so could be Solas

Arlathan was "Beloved city" or something ?
