Silly Tag

Thank you for tagging me @serensama, sorry it took so long!

Basically, from what I gathered, you post a snippet of your writing that you deem silly or funny to share.

Here's mine:

“Don’t wanna alarm you, Hawke, but I think you’ve been stabbed.” Varric’s voice grated against Hawke’s ears and she winced. Even though he sounded a thousand yards away, she could feel the weight of his calloused hand wrapped around her aching wrist still. “I-I don’t feel anything,” she replied breathlessly. It was the truth too. She was either high on adrenaline or something was terribly wrong. “Well… I can see the dagger in your side, Hawke. Want me to yank it out?” Two unified voices yelled out ‘NO!’ at the exact same time. It was almost uncanny. Penelope’s head was swimming as she tried to focus her gaze on Fenris. Nothing else mattered, only that Fenris was here. Him and his deep-set frown and pinched eyebrows. The way his lyrium markings pulsed weakly, in and out, in and out. He was worrying his bottom lip, a habit he picked up after spending a lot of time with Hawke. Was he staring at her? Did he still think she was beautiful? “You can’t just pull a knife out, Varric! She’ll deflate like a gross blood balloon!” Isabela’s voice felt like sandpaper against Hawke’s ears and it snapped her back to the present.

The scenario isn't funny, but how they react is hilarious

Tagging: @bubblecat-co, @mercars-musings, @galluslonging, & @veilguardiumleviosa!

all you really need to make a good first impression on the ceo's grandson is for him to have suffered a year of solitary confinement

There's just something about Rook and Lucanis reaffirming their support and love for each other throughout the game that makes me so emotional.

Rook Tarot Ask Game: Romance Edition

Happy Valentine's Day! I'm back with more major arcana-inspired questions for your Rook, this time focused on romance. The questions do contain spoilers, so proceed with caution!

The Fool: Describe the first meeting between Rook and their love interest. What was Rook thinking in that moment? Was it an instant attraction?

The Magician: How does trust develop between Rook and their partner?

The High Priestess: How did Rook respond to their developing feelings? Did they embrace the new feelings or hide from them?

The Empress: What actions do Rook and their love interest take to nurture their relationship?

The Emperor: What is the foundation of Rook’s relationship? What is the bond that holds them and their partner together?

The Hierophant: What is most sacred between Rook and their love interest? How do they honour that?

The Lovers: What does Rook learn about themself and their desires through their relationship with their love interest?

The Chariot: What does Rook do to balance their responsibilities as team leader with their responsibilities to their partner? Does one ever slip in favour of another? Do these two roles ever conflict?

Strength: Who makes the first move? How is it received? Is this reflective of their relationship dynamic in general?

The Hermit: In the quiet moments where it’s just the two of them, how do Rook and their partner share that time?

The Wheel of Fortune: Each of Rook’s potential love interests are dealing with significant personal issues and difficult choices. How do these choices affect their relationship, and how does Rook support them through their personal journey?

Justice: Reflect on the argument Rook and their partner have in the lead-up to the final battle. What emotions are driving the conversation? How is the issue resolved? 

The Hanged Man: How did Rook’s love interest respond to them being trapped in the Fade? If they were unaware (sacrificed or blighted), what was it like for Rook having to confront that in the Fade?

Death La Petite Mort: What does sex mean for Rook and their partner? How do they express themselves through sex, and how does this reflect their relationship in general? If their relationship is non-sexual, what does intimacy mean to them?

Temperance: What does Rook need to heal within themself to become a better partner? What about their SO?

The Devil: This is not a fun card to pull in a romance reading, especially not for Valentine’s Day. Instead, share a song that makes you think of your Rook and their partner. 

The Tower: How do Rook and their partner support each other in coping with the trauma they’ve endured? 

The Star: What does hope in the aftermath look like for Rook and their love interest? When things feel hopeless, how do they act as each other’s light in the darkness?

The Moon: The moon is bright because it reflects the light of the sun. Which qualities do Rook and their partner bring out in each other? Are these qualities positive or negative? 

The Sun: What is something Rook’s partner does that gives them that warm fuzzy feeling?

Judgement: What does Rook see when they look at their partner? What does their partner see when they look back?

The World: Thedas is saved, but changed. Where do Rook and their love interest go from here? Is marriage on the table? Children? What milestones do they have to look forward to?

They have Ashur.

Tarquin runs, lungs burning, breath lurching, his robes soaked through with rain and Venatori blood. His shield-arm screams with pain from a firebolt he didn’t entirely dodge. He ignores it all, hurtling through streets and over rooftops, heedless of the fact that he’s wearing his Shadow Dragon getup in stark daylight; that a bloodied man with a sword charging through Dock Town is drawing stares and probably more fucking Venatori. Tarquin cannot give two shits right now about who sees him, or who follows him, because they have Ashur.

They’ll unmask him, in front of the whole city, the whole Imperium. They’ll kill him slow. They’ll hang his body on the walls, like the Magisters of old used to do to traitors and cowards. Because Ashur decided to slip away and try to bring down a pack of blood mages alone, even though he’s eaten up with Blight. Because he didn’t tell Tarquin.

Didn’t say shit. Slipped away from their safehouse while Tarquin was out getting food. Didn’t even give Tarquin a chance to stop him, or to come along.

They have Ashur.

(Keep reading on AO3)

Viago: Let’s not Rook this into a worse situation than it already is.

Rook: Did you just use my name as a verb?
