A cast of feathers

Vivienne from @hottyofhonnleath‘s and I’s art collab - she did the beautiful lineart while I did the coloring, it was a whole lot of fun and I really enjoyed working with her! 

On those days he could almost forget. He was lighter, the markings didn’t hurt as much..

Dragon Age Awakening opinion thus far:

Uhh…. So I’ve been playing Dragon Age II. …Which I’d had absolutely no intention of doing all this while, because I’d played the demo yonks back before getting DA:Origins and had ragequit halfway through the opening battle; but then a certain friend had convinced me that I didn’t need to have played DA2 to play DA: Inquisition, and - after sitting on the purchase for more than a year, mind - I’d played it, and was so obsessed with it liked it so much that I marathoned through the thing twice nonstop, inhaled maybe half the longfics I found on AO3… and then wound up buying DA2 during a sale just to plug in holes… If this sounds like digging myself into a hole, well… Let’s just say I’m really adept at wielding shovels.

[You’re to blame for all of this, @wincenworks.]

So yes, I liked it. A lot, actually, aside from the repetitive maps and the swarms of giant spiders. (Seriously, Bioware, what’s up with all the spiders in your games? In KotOR there were kinrath; in ME it was the skittering rachni babies; and then I play the DA games and it’s bloody giant spiders. WHY). Enough that I’ve been planning on a replay, and have in fact just spent the Lunar New Year holiday submerged to the eyeballs in @thethirdamell​‘s brilliant epic-length ongoing fic, Accursed Ones (whose length already puts Victor Hugo to shame, damn the sewers).

And yes, I like Anders a lot, and I just want him to have a cat again and be happy. Because priorities.
