While listening to From Eden by Hozier on my way to work, it gave me super Solavellan vibes. There's something so inherently simple yet tragic about this song that really reminded me of them.

"Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago. Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on his sword. Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me, I should know. I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door

No matter how you rp your Lavellan, they're ultimately doing what they do to help others. Idealism, chivalry, innocence are all ideals that just aren't compatible with what is basically the end of the world. He relates to what you are doing, finding his own parallels between the blight and imprisoning his fellow Gods. As the trickster God, he himself shares a lot of parallels with the serpent in the Bible, who tricks Adam and Eve into creating sin. He's metaphorically slithering out of his solitude to watch her, to observe her, to love her, and after their break up to pine for her.

"Babe, There's something tragic about you. Something so magic about you. There's something broken about this. But I might be hoping about this. Oh, what a sin"

Really all of the verses fit their relationship so well but if I put them all, this post would be too long. But I chose these because I think they sum up the rest. Solas likely views Lavellan's predicament as tragic; that they're thrown into this life-and-death situation with no choice. Forced into holding Thedas' survival in the palm of their hand, and yet, there's something magical about it, too. The Anchor is unlike anything seen before. She is gifted - or cursed - with a kind of magic that fascinates him, along with what its purpose will be used for. He stays with the intent to help her, and to study her. Once he falls, though, he knows this relationship really isn't going to work, that it's just not right. That's it's inherently broken. And yet he hopes that it will thrive, that it will live through all of the problems that eventually lead to its downfall. 'Oh, what a sin" is really the perfect, final touch as a god dating a mortal, the people he exists to protect (figuratively) is within itself a sin.

"Why were you digging? What did you bury. Before those hands pulled me from the earth?"

Solas had only recently woken up before DAI and had such a hatred for the people of modern Thedas. And it was Lavellan who taught him to see that they're not all bad and that maybe they are actually worth saving. She dug him out of his hatred and loneliness and taught him to see the good in people again.

"I will not ask you where you came from. I will not ask and neither should you. Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips. We should just kiss like real people do"

❣ ~ so as to not crowd up my pinned introductory post with a million ocs, I've decided to make this: a post for all of my minor ocs. While these characters aren't as near to my heart as those on my main post, I thought they still deserved a place to exist!
