There are several conversations before this where Lavellan and Solas grow closer, but I still think the conversation after she returns from the time-travel incident feels especially meaningful.

Lavellan does not simply say, “You’re special.” Instead, she tells him he is “not most people.” And somehow, I think that is exactly the kind of compliment that would reach Solas in this moment.

She even says she appreciates him not being most people.

Because after waking from uthenera, Solas must have known the loneliness of not being most people. He woke into a world that no longer remembered the truth he knew. When he tried to tell modern elves about the past, about the Veil, about being Fen’Harel, they did not believe him. He was even attacked for it.

So when Lavellan says she appreciates him not being most people, it feels like a quiet reversal of that loneliness.

The very thing that has isolated him — his difference, his distance from the world around him — is, for a moment, treated as something precious.

She is saying she is glad he is not like everyone else.

Glad that he is, in some quiet way, himself.

Maybe that’s a bit much, lol. But still.

And Solas, of course, answers by lightly deflecting with a joke about Orlesian fashion and magical surprises. But I think the softness still lands.

[Throwing out some Mii posts because I have finished the game and just want to get them out of my drafts while I spend time writing.]

Solas confessed his little fee-fees to Asena, and wtf?! Out of the blue, Loïc popped up, saying he was the one who truly loved her.

She had to choose.

Did Nintendo get up in my HCs for Loïc or....?

I didn't catch that the damned thing spelled LATH or that the comma was in the wrong place, or the misspelled word until the scene was already playing, and we don't save up in hur. With this game you roll the dice and deal.

After the events of All New, Faded For Her.

Solas has lost a friend, a spirit of wisdom taken by mages and twisted into a demonic form. The spirit was beyond saving and Solas was forced to release it into the fade, scattering its being to the winds of change. Gone. Now he must process the injustice, and grief and anger hit hard.

“Solas?”

“Andraste’s balls it’s cold -“

“You needn’t grieve alone Solas.. if you do not wish to. I am here if you need me.”

“…”
