spicyshimmy replied to your post: In all their years of companionship, Hawke has exhibited no natural flaw more obvious than this. He was not made for the sea. But Fenris’s palms do not blister and the knots—to which he shows patience—hold no matter the beating of the winds, the lashing of the rain, Isabela’s laughter into the storm, what chases the waves into silence. ‘You needn’t look so ...
historymiss asked: It's the hats that do it. A new one every week, each more extravagant than the last. They sprout like strange flowers on the backs of chairs and on tables all around the house, mushrooms of silk and felt and velvet. Marian makes a pile of them in the end, a small mountain on the bed that Isabela can't help but chuckle at. "This is too many hats, Isabela." Marian says sternly....
ladythorn asked: I have some fluff for you! I hope this'll do. Is Marian/Fenris. I hope that's okay. fanfiction. net/s/7846825/1/
Ficlet: Carver/Merrill - Extra Fluffy
impressioniste:
Flutiebear said she needed something fluffy today, so I scraped this up out of the recesses of my brain.<3
———
Carver stuck out like a sore thumb in the alienage, but that didn’t keep him from trying to hide in the recess around the corner from Merrill’s door every day when he knew the templars were making their rounds, keeping watch from the shadowy corner just in case they...
FOR FLUTIE - Carver/Merrill "Braids"
missl0nelyhearts:
When she comes – when she screams – Carver cringes a little between her haphazard legs. Merrill’s always been vocal, but she tugs so damn hard on his hair this time that his eyes water. And at least he worries less about who can hear them while he’s busy aching all over his scalp.
When he reaches up to rub his head Carver finds lumps scattered throughout his...
Spyglass - Sigrun/spyglass
myjusticecake:
For flutie!

“So … it’s not some kind of weird surfacer sex toy?”
“No,” said the Warden, while behind her Anders sniggered into his sleeve and Nathaniel examined his bow with careful intensity.
“Huh,” said Sigrun, extending the metal tube and then collapsing it again. “But there’s no real reason why it couldn’t be - repurposed?”
The Warden stared at her a moment and then...
wantthepharaohs asked: "I can't see anything through this damn fog," Fenris called as his eyes tried to pierce through the dense, wet shroud surrounding their small boat. Isabela came up behind him, her right hand covering his on the wheel, and purred into his ear: "That's alright, love. Seeing where you're going isn't nearly as important as seeing who you're going with."

spicyshimmy asked: Hawke chokes on a feather. Anders sneezes around a mouthful of dusty furs. One time Hawke steps on Anders's foot and another Anders steps on the dog's tail and a third they step on Varric, who was 'just checking out the wainscoting; nice stuff, by the way,' before he tells them to pretend like he isn't even there, that he'll make himself comfortable in the study with...
HOLY SHIT Y'ALL DELIVER
I should ask for fluff more often.
Incoming awesome spam in 3…2…1…
I kind of just need some DA fluff.
(source: textsfromkirkwall, IIRC)
This MOOD. It’s crapitude on a horrific scale. I’m two seconds from Goggalor-ing my kitchen. “NOT THE COFFEE MAKER! OH THE HUMANITY”.
So please, take pity on my poor cooking utensils and hook a girl up with some fluff, pretty please? Carver/Merrill, Garrett/Anders, Marian/Isabela, Fenris/Isabela, hell, even Sigrun/spyglass. I’m not...
I am giddy with Austen Carrill.
And it is all historymiss’s fault.

(if you side with the Templars during "The Last Straw")
Merrill: How do you do it, living in the city without picking a side? Doesn't it matter to you?
Varric: Of course it does. That's why I don't take sides.
Merrill: That doesn't make any sense.
Varric: I've got you and Aveline, Fenris and Anders. Hawke. Isabela.
Varric: I've got friends in the Circle and drinking buddies in the templars. All of them matter.
Merrill: But you're going to fight. If it comes to that, I mean.
Varric: I fought my own brother, Daisy. Nobody said this was going to be happy story.

No Light XV: Blue Sky Day
As difficult as these solitary confinement chapters have been to write, I’m learning new things about Carver as I go—and isn’t it wonderful, when a character you’ve been writing every day for four months (eek!) can still surprise you?

There are a few who don’t. Cullen, for example! (But there are a lot of blue-eyed folks.)
You’re right. He, Karras, and Agatha all have brown eyes. Mettin has green. Varnell and Wesley might have brown, it’s hard to tell. And I forget what Moira has.
But Thrask, Emeric, Meredith, Alrik, Hugh, Paxley,...
anonymouscatastrophe replied to your post: Maybe two more DA2 DLCs?
That’s been going around since Legacy came out. I think there might be some validity to it, at least ad far as Hawke-focused DLCs go. The devs have voiced that they’d like to examine the companions in DLCs, too, which would be awesome.
Has it? Cool, this fandom has such eagle eyes. :)
I hope you’re right—in...
Also have you ever noticed that all the active-duty Templars in DA2 have blue eyes? From all that lyrium they drink, perhaps?
Maybe two more DA2 DLCs?
If you go into Gamlen’s house, into the room where the Mark of the Assassin and Legacy mementos are, you’ll notice that the statues are sitting on these little towels.
To date, there are still two unoccupied towels:
Does this mean there are two more DLCs in the works?

Sometimes life just catches up to you. And the only solution is to eat maraschino cherries straight from the jar and run around a fake psychic summer camp on your giant sparkling ball.

flutiebear:
When I first decided to stick Carver in solitary, I thought he’d weather it fairly well; Hawkes are a resilient sort, and Carver, in some ways, is the most resilient of all his siblings. But the truth of it is, Carver’s never really been alone before, has he? As a twin, even in the womb, he was part of a pair, and then he’s always had his family, or...

silfren asked: I find it funny that you only ever romance Anders with your m!Hawke because you find the Marian&Anders version far too patronizing. For various reasons, I only ever play my own gender, and I always pair her with Anders. Each new playthrough, I swear that this time I'll romance either Fenris or Isabela, and yet inevitably I always go for Anders. Mostly I just can't bear the thought...

So you know how I thought all this was going to get easier once we got past the abuse scene? Boy was I wrong. I promise I’ll write some fluffy-mc-flufferfluff to counteract this later today.
