Welcome to Yole`s silly lil tumblr

I am starting to get really annoyed by sheer amount of illiteracy caused by own lack of willingness to think. Do we not read classics in middle school? No Greek tragedies? Shakespeare? Tagore? Orwell ? Anything!?

There are people in this world who would give anything to have access to (formal) education. Hell, if nothing else, my own doctorate gives me much more accessibility and freedom to work abroad as an non US/EU citizen.

Mage

Solas: You train your will to control magic and withstand possession. Your indomitable focus is an enjoyable side benefit.

Lavellan: Indomitable focus?

Solas: Presumably. I have yet to see it dominated. I imagine that the sight would be… Fascinating.

Rogue

Solas: You train to flick a dagger or an arrow to its target. The grace with which you move is a pleasing side benefit.

Lavellan: So you’re suggesting I’m graceful?

Solas: No. I am declaring it. It was not a subject for debate.

Warrior

Solas: You strengthen your body to deliver and withstand punishment. The muscles are an enjoyable side benefit.

Lavellan: You find the muscles enjoyable?

Solas: I meant that you enjoyed having them, presumably.

Lavellan: Oh.

Solas: But… Yes. Since you asked.

Harding Week Day 7: Free Day!

“How can loving me be anything but a chore?” “It’s never been hard.” She laced her fingers behind his neck, her thumbs stroking soft lines. “Besides, you think even if I had to put in work to love you, I wouldn’t? Loving you is like tending a garden. Everything I saw in you, right from the start, I get to see bloom.”

I've had the sketch for this in my WIP pile for ages so figured it was time to finish it. From Chapter 49 of Castled Queenside.
