What do you mean him and my Rook never even held hands and in the one time they almost kissed Lucanis panicked but my Rook didn't give him shit about it not even once and a few interactions later, after the deepest emotional connection possible with the whole thing with Spite in the Fade/Mind Prison, Lucanis made him dessert and that was the gesture that made their romantic relationship official?? Whoever wrote this please hit me up I just wanna TALK

Not even my ace ass could come up with something like this, it's so damn specific and yet so... Relatable? That's not the word but idk how I would explain this in english lol Okay, it's a bit like what I've been saying about Lucanis: he seems like he was written to trap me in the game bc he keeps acting this specific ass way that somehow aligns with what I look for in a romantic relationship almost at every detail and I just noticed it's because he's acting soooooo ace coded in all of these situations

I never expected any of this and I'm pretty sure it wasn't intentional since I've seen enough shirtless screenshots of Lucanis looking lovingly at Rook to know there's a sex scene eventually, but it would be so fucking cool if he was the ace romance option. Like you'd still kiss, share an emotional connection so deep your souls feel intertwined, go on coffee dates, walk around Treviso to talk for hours, he'd cook for you, you'd protect each other in the battlefield, none of you would date anyone else and sex could happen but it would always be optional and not doing it would not change a thing in what you already have. Do you see the vision????

It was a panel about what traits they share with the characters they wrote. They described how they tend to write "smart, sensitive boys."

"Sometimes the smart, sensitive boys were angry at the bullying they received and would lash out and get back with… with a kind of pride." (said alongside this picture of Solas)

They said that Solas shares an autistic sense of justice.

"When you're smart and you know you're smart, but you try to live your life being smart, but also scrupulously honest... when you see other people not doing that, it gets under your skin. How else could anyone react to that? Of course you're going to dig in your heels - and maybe you're not going to fight them directly but you are going to glare.

"I lay in dark and dreaming sleep, while countless wars and ages past"

People really wanted to comfort Little Solas so I'm making him apologize first and he will likely have to apologize later as well

You may now hold him as your bonus, Enjoy:

the 4,000 year time span between the veil and the masked empire during which felassan could only ever have spoken to solas in dreams when at all.

the years solas spent in the lighthouse with all those fucking notes from felassan around. "don't cause too much trouble before i get there."

the only time anyone says felassan's name out loud in the video games is when solas says it in an ancient arlathan memory

solas not painting felassan a mural in the lighthouse and only referring to him as "my agent," once, but still regretting what happened with him so much that it's one of the three big revenants powered by his regret, after the titans and mythal???? sir your repression

the ambiguity of "the betrayal of felassan" as the name of that revenant. whose betrayal of whom.

the heart of corruption/revenant dragon residing in the same place felassan used to go to get away from everything.

felassan calling it "our rebellion."

felassan being aware that he would die if he reported back to solas, seeing a plausible way he could run instead, and reporting back anyway.

the tone he takes during his death scene being so friendly and nonchalant, "what's the harm really" and "i suspect you'll hate this," like he's still trying to talk to solas like they are friends and equals even while he is aware solas is about to kill him.

felassan isn't even his real/original name and in one of his veilguard notes he refers to being felassan at all as being "solas's friend felassan" like that identity is inextricably tied to his friendship with solas, he cannot be felassan without also being solas's friend.

"and you are the slow arrow?" / "i hope so."

in conclusion,
