kinda wanna write kinda wanna take a nap

8. Did any particular scene give you a hard time?

I think the Water of the Womb chapters were definitely tricky in trying to balance the pacing and just landing the plot points. There was a lot of revision going on there from what I recall, just trying to get the balance right with Illario, Lucanis and Alessia, and everything else going on in those chapters.

10. Is there any moment in your fic that makes you go crazy, even if it's not the most well-written?

“So Viago wasn’t the only one who had to put up with that behaviour,” Lucanis tsk’d. “I’m sure he would have loved to complain with Varric about that.”

“He still might depending on how all this ends,” she laughed.

“Hey, let’s not get ahead of ourselves,” Taash snorted. “We kill Ghilan’nain and get that dagger and we can still win this.”

I'm still very proud of myself for this interaction and how Alessia is managing to have an entirely different conversation with the gang without anyone realising it :)

Oh, and as a bonus because yes this ask did get me re-reading my own fic when I'm meant to be working on another one, and it's reminding me that I will need to eventually work on a DA2 fic...

At that, Emmrich shuddered. “I will never understand the practice of cremation,” he murmured.

“It’s not a practice among the Dalish either,” Merrill said, nodding sagely. “We give our bodies back to the earth, to feed it and become something new. Burning someone to nothing but dust just seems… sad.”

Hawke shrugged irreverently. “Stops the bog zombies from biting your face off.”

Emmrich had never looked so scandalised.

“But Andraste was burnt alive,” Merrill pointed out. “Surely she wouldn’t have wanted people to be burned up just because it happened to her?”

“I dunno, Merry. I think if I was burned alive, I would make it everyone’s problem.”

“You are everyone’s problem,” Viago muttered.
