dragged by fate

Morrigan

Like I feel like a lot of the fic I’ve read of Fenhawke (particularly mage!Hawke) are more on the antagonistic side. And like, I get it Fenris hates mages blah blah blah but also….

Maxing out his friendship implies Fenris like…..actually likes you. Genuinely, as a friend. Whether you’re a mage or not. But most fics I’ve read with him still involve him being a grumpy boy whenever Hawke comes around and like?????

I just like the idea of a slow burn friends to lovers with Fenhawke. Like maybe they even consider each other their Best friend. And then after act 2 instead of this perpetually awkward vibe between them they slowly ease back into just being friends. I like the idea of a Hawke who Gets Fenris, as much as they can. Who gets why he left, even if it hurts. Maybe they even agree with him on some level that yeah, they Did move too fast.

Idk bro Fenris just has such a strained and distant relationship with most ppl in his life… I want him to at least have One relationship with someone that is vastly more easy and comfortable than anything else (that someone being Hawke in this instance cause I live for the mushy gushy niceness)

Krem week day 4 —Family / Love

For every bloody battlefield, we'll gladly raise a cup.

Leliana remained in the royal court for a time, mourning. She poured her heart into a ballad that would eventually become known throughout Thedas. But after one perforance, Leliana quietly vanished. Some say that the Maker came to her in a vision again that night. Smiling, tears in her eyes, she told a maid that she would see her love again at last.

i know this can be ambiguious and read in different ways but. i do think it does heavily imply leliana took her own life or, given dai exists, attempted to. was talking to a friend and the possibilities of like. leliana went back to the temple of sacred ashes to take her life and then the whole lyrium ghost thing. or justinia stepping in at the last minute to stop her, which leads into the whole 'justinia saved me' thing.

Rushed through development in just a year to capitalize on the runaway success of its predecessor, Dragon Age II's writing team had only a few months to write an entire game before handing it off to voice acting and development. The result was an often ramshackle sequel featuring a smaller world, fewer companions, and repetitive quests—as well as some of the best characters, dialogue, and storytelling Bioware has ever put to screen. Based on new interviews with DA2 writers David Gaider, Jennifer Hepler, Lukas Kristjanson, as well as editor Karin Weekes, author Charlotte Reber tells the wild behind-the-scenes story of how a team at the top of their game made the best of an impossible assignment to create the series’s first fully voiced protagonist, its charmingly unreliable narrator, and a crew of unforgettable party members to bother, befriend, and romance. From DA2’s inception to its mishandled marketing campaign to its volatile reactions from players, Reber’s book raises a mug of ale to the game that was—and the game that might have been.
