Yeah this was her comic she did for them. It's lovely.
Wow that's lovely, I'd never seen it before. Thank you for sharing.

Which bit of art you talking about specifically? She's posted lots
This one:

Like, I saw all the blackwall art and was like OK, yeah he's cool. Good number 2. Iron Bull is mine. But then she said "hypothetical" and it was just
</3 ;___;
Think of it as the way the romance could hypothetically go
since we don't know how the plot goes just yet ![]()

That is one of her best montages, though. Don't let the notes at the bottom take away from the glory at the top! YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE!

Oh no no I just realized you changed your icon. I don't care if you started the whole chibi business... YOU have to change your icon back. Toothless must be represented in the forums. If you really must have a chibi use this image

It's a good image, has served me well throughout my years on tumblr.
Also yes, totally agree with your sentiment about stay positive, it truly is a wonderful montage. ![]()
Anyway, shall I repost the optimism list to lift our spirits?
1. Varric is hugely popular among Dragon Age fans, which makes him a hard character for the writers to ignore
2. Is it just us or has he somehow managed to get handsomer since Dragon Age 2? The redesign of Varric fits that handsome look BioWare love for their romances.
3. There's a chance that the last two characters may be race-gated, and Varric has some reasons for being gated himself.
4. Take a look at our last screenshot, Varric and Vivienne together. Coincidence? Or a hint that they are two last LI's? ![]()
5. "Like a well oiled leather jacket."
6. DG's classic Hobbit tweet: "Finally saw the Hobbit. May have to rethink my status on dwarf romances."
7. All the other "Not no way not no how" LI's have had their statuses confirmed as a "NO!": Leliana, Morrigan and of course Cole.
8. "It was tempting..."~David Gaider on Varric's status as romance in DA2
9. How about that "extra scene" that was almost slipped in post interrogation between Varric and Hawke? "I told them everything" "Everything?" "Don't worry, I skipped the part about us."
10. "If we'd known how popular he'd be, maybe we'd have gone a different way."-Another gem for David Gaider
11. People have been requesting a dwarven love interest since the release of Origins.
12. There was of course David Gaider's April Fools day joke where he claimed to be leaking "Varric Inquistion romance scenes". It would rather low to make this kind of joke if there wasn't a hint of truth to it.
13. If it really is a no, the kinder thing to do would have been to let down his fans early. Bioware knows there are a fair amount of people who have wanted him as an LI since DA2. It just doesn't seem like their MO to drag a "No" out this long.
14. Cameron Lee has been stressing that Varric loves Bianca too much to let her go. But the more and more he states this, the more and more it starts to sound like a red herring. We know we can switch Varric's weapons in Inquisition, with the exception of Bianca. Maybe, just maybe, he's talking about the crossbow instead of the woman.
15. In regards to Bianca the woman, having a long lost or deceased love hasn't prevented a character from becoming an LI in previous Bioware titles. Carth, Zevran, Kaidan and Thane are all LI's who have lost a woman who they dearly loved but found happiness in a new lover.
16. Just because a character was not originally intended to be a romance doesn't mean the developers can't change their minds. Regarding Morrigan, one of the most iconic Dragon Age LI's:
"Trying to figure out what the romance is...sometimes it requires you to sit back and think about the character a slightly different way because you've always thought about them [one way]....Morrigan initially was not supposed to be a romance. I had to change the way I thought about her...[I saw her] as having built up this sort of armor around herself-that there was a different person underneath. One that she purposely had to squelch because she thought that [it] was weak, because that was what she had been taught. Suddenly when I thought about that, it was, 'Oh that's an interesting place to go.'
17. Allen seemed make an...interesting slip....regarding an earlier interview with romances this year. He stated romances would be varied with different personalities. The interviewer asked if Varric would be an LI. At this point Allen looked as though he'd realized he'd said something he should not have and stated that Gaider would be upset if he spoiled things.
18. Out of our romanceable companions so far we have two warriors (Iron Bull and Cassandra) , one mage (Dorain), and one rogue (Sera). There's a decent chance that for balancing sake the final two LI's are a mage and rogue respectively. Since Cole has been confirmed as unromanceable that leaves Varric to fill the final rogue slot.
19. At the GaymerX "Building Better Romances" panel, a dev said that there were "3 straight optons, a couple bi options and a couple of gay options." Perhaps Vivi is the bi options and Varric is the straight option.
20. According to a banter between Hawke and Varric in Legacy, Varric went on a date at some point in Dragon Age 2, with lady Dusana Helmi. Now this was a bad date, and Helmi did tried to kill Varric, but it does show that Varric is at least willing to go out with women besides Bianca.

OMG its so cute! I'll probably change back to the picture I had... its just hard to give up my adorable rogue! (I need to photoshop them being besties...)
Is anyone awake that feels like being a "beta reader"/editor for me for our prompt story? I've been doing homework and am not sure if my brain is dead or not, so I'm worried I have some errors.

Cheers drop it by me, I'd love to read it. Your rogue is adorable by the way, Toothless just has a special place in my heart.

I sent you a PM. thank you! ![]()
So, I just realized that there are no Korean holidays in November... or December until Christmas eve.... I'll have to save my Dragon Age for the weekends ![]()
Wow that's lovely, I'd never seen it before. Thank you for sharing.

Hey guys, what's up? ![]()
Hey guys, what's up?
Nothing much
. Aimo's a traitor, comic!Varric doesn't have enough chesthair, and Toothless is horrendously underrepresented in the forums now. What's up with you? Got any Varric relevant dreams to share? That's a pretty hoping subject on Scuttlebutt right now
.
So, I just realized that there are no Korean holidays in November... or December until Christmas eve.... I'll have to save my Dragon Age for the weekends
Aww that sucks. Still, it's not like you need sleep all that much, replace it with DAI and it'll be like you're dreaming anyways.

^^^ all accurate-- although it's nice to know that Aimo isn't against Varric, just not a true believer

I'm sure she'll have some "happily surprised"/celebration pics to share with us all when he's announced.

She is?! :c I know it's just a jest, but I'm scared to ask why... xD
And I know! I totally brought that one with the chest hair up in the first place! there's just not enough... I mean, of course he looks lovely anyways, but yah know. ![]()
Sadly no Varric dreams lately, lol. I had one a couple weeks back where he was announced as an LI, only to wake up sad. I think some others in here have had similar dreams. XD

I had a dream where I was playing the game already and romancing him. I gave him a flower.
Aimo's currently more of a Blackwall fan than a Varric fan, she used to me one of the most prominent members of the Varric fandom
. But she still loves Varric too, and we still love her, so it's all good
.
As I said before, that was a more youthful version of Varric. Manliness, like wine and cheese, takes time to mature

Squee! I saw your Icon and for a moment it was like Varric has been announced as an LI. Welcome back Toothless!

Haha, that makes sense! And owch, my heart. :'c Is it because she doesn't have much hope he'll be an LI? Blackwall seems interesting but he'd probably be my last choice if I got to choose from the rest of the candidates, tbh. I'm not big on the beard (totally shallow of me), and we've already had 2 grey warden romances... one was adorable, one was... tragic... and I can only see his as tragic too, with his age. ![]()
