Solas Romance - Tumblr Posts
To all Solas romance fanfic writers
I'm soooo afraid that this DLC might be the doom upon all Solasmancers and Solas romance fanfic.
It’s gonna get down, no happy fluffy ending, not even a bittersweet one, I suppose. I really hope I'm wrong.
However, I will still take that all the fanfic I read is another world, another universe that either inky or OC get a happy or semi-happy ending with Solas.
If Bioware’s really gonna throw me to the unfathomable hell of Solasmance, I still have hope that they live a happy life somewhere in the multiverse.
p.s. I still love the sad ending fanfic but I'm so scared right now that it might end worse than any fanfic I read before.
*SPOILERS* When Solas breaks up with you for the first time
I made this I’m proud
Come on Solas, how can you ignore that sad face? She looks like a kicked puppy.
Josie, Probably: They say you should surround yourself with quotes that inspire you
Lavellan: Oh okay I can do that :3
“Ar lath, ma vhenan.” So why does Solas look so upset?
While replaying the balcony scene, I used the flycam to follow Solas and see what, if any, reaction he has to starting up with Lavellan as he walks away.
I mean, this is a big moment of personal growth for Solas, right? He’s decided to allow himself some modicum of happiness. Usually, when people confess their love for somebody and find that love returned, they are happy.
When the scene plays, the Inquisitor cannot see Solas’ expression and neither can the player (unless they have flycam). So all I was expecting was, at most, Solas’ neutral expression that he wears when nothing is happening. And for the record, this is what Solas looks like when there’s nothing going on:
(Note to self: send thank you card to Bioware for another game with all that elven eye candy. And human eye candy. And Qunari eye candy if you’re into that sort of thing. But I won’t thank Bioware for dwarven eye candy because there isn’t any–again–and I cannot romance Varric–again. Actually, I’m not going to send Bioware a goddamn thing.)
Anywhore, whatever I was expecting, it was not this:
He looks like he’s about to cry.
That’s how fucked up it is for those of us in Solavellan hell. Our Inquisitor has chosen a man who, from the very beginning of the affair, is already grieving its loss.
