@bluhawke laughing bc you guys sent these at the exact same time skdhjlshj, like literally the exact same time. I looked away and looked back to both notifications. Thank you both <3 <3

Did any of their friends or family want them to get together?

Leliana definitely knew something was up and kept dropping hints that kind of didn't really help bc they're both a-spec and Leliana's jokes were along the lines of Alistair, hey? 😉😏 while Frankie was like yeah he's pretty neat huh :)

The others didn't necessarily want them to get together or not, they may have not even been fully aware how much they actually did like each other before they got together (especially bc neither Frankie or Alistair really realised either). And by the time it was obvious to the others, they weren't even sure if they were actually already together.

What was their first kiss like?

OK so currently their first kiss is following the Urn of Sacred Ashes! They become pretty close friends quite quickly and have a very friends to lovers feel to their relationship where there's never actually a specific moment they know they like each other, they just gradually realise its more than friends and they're both at that point here but they've never talked about it!

Afterwards they’re back at camp and the two of them wander off from the rest of the group and Frankie asks him about what the Guardian in the Gaunlet said and if he really believes that maybe things would be better if he had died instead of Duncan and Alistair is like maybe /: and she's like well I'm really glad you survived, the world is better with you in it <3 and they make eye contact and there's a Moment™ and then they kiss.

YES i have spent a lot of time thinking abt this and YES its one of the scenes that I'm like hm maybe I should just skip ahead and write this in the multiwarden AU

Who uses cheesy pick-up lines?

I mean it's Alistair, so is this even a real question tbh? 😂 He does it sometimes when he discovered the most ridiculous cheesy pick-up lines because he knows it'll make her laugh <3 this reminds me though I actually have a whole lil ficlet already written specifically about this lmao maybe I should finish editing + posting that

How many kids do they have, if any? What are they like?

They don't have any kids :) they do both love doting on Endrin though (A+ aunt and uncle here!)

They do have two mabari though! Frankie is always disappointed that Dog liked Shayla better than her and is constantly trying to earn the dog's love more and one day at the end of the Blight, Dog marches in with a mabari puppy she's found from somewhere and drops it on Frankie's pillow and then comes back with another one for Alistair's bed <3

Oh, this ask was such a nice surprise for the new year! Sorry that it took so long to reply.

But a few things about my disaster boy Faenel...

Because I’m an angsty hoe, my favorite element to his story is that he foolishly lied to Morrigan about killing Flemeth. Flemeth bribed him, and he was like “ok cool” and never put much thought to it, not until he came to realize that he actually cares about Morrigan. So, to fix his mistake, he went after Flemeth after the Archdemon business had been wrapped. Unfortunately, Flemeth managed to stay one step ahead of him.

Eventually, he figured out that Flemeth is Mythal, but he wasn’t able to reach Skyhold in time to stop Morrigan from drinking from the Well of Sorrows. I’ve yet to decide what this’ll mean to their story. But I’d like to think they’ll figure it out, somehow.

He’s very pragmatic guy, and he treats blood magic as merely a tool to achieve some ends, nothing more. He’s not particularly ambitious, and his original interest in blood magic was purely academic. He taught Katla (my Hawke) to use blood magic, which helped her to survive Kirkwall, but she eventually gave it up as soon as she could feel safe again.

Faenel used to be good friends with Jowan, and they even had an affair of sorts when they were younger, but they ended up being friends. Against his better judgment, Faenel tried to help Jowan and Lily escape, which resulted in him being conscripted into Gray Wardens.

He has a complicated relationship with being a warden, though. He was never particularly invested in it and merely viewed it as a way to escape from the Templars’ wrath, but the Wardens kinda grew on him over time. His opinion swayed Iliana (my Inquisitor) to allow them to join the Inquisition.

17. do you think you’re justified in giving other people art advice?

yeah, but I’m not gonna be arrogant or high and mighty about giving advice out. advice is just to help people out and not to dictate to people how you should do xyz. I’ve been drawing for over ten years now, so there’s probably a few tips and tricks I know to help people.

but baby artist tips? depends on what you wanna know legitimately

--if you’re into drawing people, there’s lots of tutorials and information out there to get you started. even following just a guide someone does of “this is how you draw a head in 3/4′s view!” can help. I legit started out drawing people by following a friends instructions.

--studying people, breaking down how the body and face are constructed helps. how features relate to each other, like how far is the mouth from the tip of the nose? how wide is the mouth? how long is the nose in relationship to the forehead and the chin? there’s all those sorts of “cheats” that helps with constructing a face. knowing those can help you push those features.

--the body follows much of those same rules, like where the wrists sit when arms are idle, how long the thigh is compared to the shin, how big the head is compared to the torso, the length of the foot compared to the shin.

well, since you asked so nicely:

Ellana tilted her chin up, pressing her lips to his before she could second guess herself. Then Solas was pulling her to him, his arm circling around her waist and his hand cradling her face. She slid her hand down to grasp his tunic as he bent her backwards, incapable as always of doing things half-heartedly.
