Thank you Elliot!!

Her favorite candy is Reese’s and she absolutely can and will argue that any of the special shaped holiday versions of Reese’s are far superior to any other version. 

Only gets about five hours of sleep a night so she survives the day by drinking a ton of caffeine. The up side is that there’s always a fresh pot of coffee in the station, the bad side is that they go through a lot of coffee.

gravitonlance said:💪 and ✌ for xen with the touch ask meme!

🤲 - is your character better at receiving touch or giving it? under what circumstances?

def receiving. zavrik is really emotionally closed off, so showing physical affection is very very rare. he doesnt really,,, do anything when someone touches him, unless he’s allowing himself to be vulnerable and emotional.

👋 - someone waves at your character. what do they do?

depends on who waves! another guardian or civ soldier or whatever, they get a nod of acknowledgement. if it’s a lil kiddo in the city, he’ll give a small wave back. if it’s aurora, xen, or xevuul, he sighs and waits for the tackle-hug he’s sure to receive at any moment.

💪 - would your character be more likely to scoop someone up in their arms, or be the one getting scooped?

xen is BIG they do the scoop!!! they love to carry around their friends all the time. even mikris who is as tall as them!! they’re the “will pick you up and spin around when you hug” kinda guy lmao. 

✌️ - are there any gestures or touches that your character shares with a friend/team/loved one that are a type of code between them?

aurora and mikris have a lot! they’re so in tune with each other’s emotional states and so familiar that they just know what to look for all the time. 

aurora and zavrik are similar, but it’s not as intimate and it’s a bit more purposeful. zavrik is very controlled, so if his fingers twitch or tremble, then aurora is immediately on guard. aurora knows the hunter’s sign language and taught zavrik the basics, so they use those in the field. they’ve been best friends so long they can pretty much have an entirely nonverbal conversation. 

xen is a lot more expressive all the time. their tail especially reveals their emotions--it’s a bit cat-like. they also are a very open friendly person, and a very big person, so they don’t really rely on secret codes and stuff, but they also use gestures and sign language for stealthy field work... not that they’re stealthy lmao

4) What was your first Warden (gender/class/race/personality)? Female Human Noble!! My main love, Katryn Cousland. She’s a rogue, was always caught between the good/sarcastic response. Smooched Alistair, and eventually became Warden Queen. 

5) What was your first Hawke like (gender/class/temperament)? That was gal Ariadne. Also a rogue, mostly purple with some blue scattered around. 

6) First Inquisitor (gender/class/race/personality)? Rhia Trevelyan, Human, another rogue, 50/50 diplomatic/sarcastic. Favorite DA:O backstory?

7) Favorite DA:O backstory? TBH I only ever played the human noble, circle, and... Dalish origins, so I haven’t been through all of them but I’ve read up on them. Out of those, Human Noble was my favorite because it tied in with a majority of the plot smoother than the rest. Somehow the personal direct connection with the secondary villain helped immersion a lot. 

8) Preferred class overall? As you can tell with those first three, rogue. Yeah the attacks kind of suck, but I love the aesthetic of Backstab and... whatever that one is where you jump from person to person to stab them. Also lockpicking and trap-diffusing ftw. 

16) DA:O: Did your Warden survive? She did, bc I ain’t one of those crazy people who don’t let Alistair and Morrigan sleep together. One night and my friends’ temporary discomfort to save countless lives? Hell yeah I’m taking it, it worked out. 

21) Did Hawke side with the Mages or Templars? Mages!! Though that game really makes it hard considering every single mage resorts to blood magic and murder. Thraaaaaaaaask ;_; That said/considering who I’m talking to, Cullen’s still an asshole though, but at least he was like... a hair towards trying to be a better person in that last five minutes.
