The Blanketfort (crying and throwing up) - The Official Solas Thread [Spoilers]

I wasn't questioning who it was being edited by or why they were the ones editing it.  I was merely saying that it looked to be an anthology of short stories (which it is from what you've said) because typically if it's a novel it will just say "By <Name>"  or "Written by <Name>" and not "Edited by <Name>".  I've only seen anthologies use the "Edited by" language.  There was no description at all on Amazon about the book itself.

idk if they are a specifically a character from one of the short stories or one drawn for the purposes of cover art, but I'm in love with that elf

Wouldn't let your fangirls hear that, Egg.

I don't think it's so much that my Inky has changed, and more about what she changed (she pretty thoroughly borked the entire human status quo). She feels that may have put a major target on her back, and wouldn't dream of bringing that kind of heat down upon her family.

I'd have to say it really depends on how everything turns out.  At the moment she's too distracted trying to find and stop Solas.  If that wasn't the case ... I'm honestly not sure, I see good reasons for and against.

Been reading some DA4 fanfics lately, because I've been missing the game so much, as well as all their characters, and of course, particularly Solas.

I read Punishment which is ok considering, I appreciate a version of Solas that is an absolute fluffy ball, cause I sure as hell don't relate to Dom!Solas at all (it's just too OOC for me, Dom!Solas ain't Solas at all, really). However the main character was too much for me at times (if all the time), I mean she's cute, but damn I don't relate to some parts of their personality being just too immature to deal with, and too weak. My Lavellan was never weak, and I don't know, I enjoyed a lot having some intellectual resistance between Solas & Lavellan during the game, both of them stood their grounds if needed be, and that is something that is cruelly lacking here for my taste. Still, the fluff is hella good, can't deny.

Also read Secrets From Dreams, that I actually enjoyed a lot. I found the self-insert "I already know everything" point of view interesting, (hence why I read Punishment in the first place), but this one takes it up a notch up, and the main character actually feels closer to home. She's her own person, has her own agenda, doesn't shy away from confronting Solas (even though I wouldn't mind more of it) if needs be, and the writing is also pretty good. I don't know where the story will go, I'm interested in seeing how things will evolve once the cards are on the table, but it's a slow ride and a fairly enjoyable one. I like that there also is a counterpoint Solas POV to this fanfic called Truth From Dreams, it's fun to read it all over again, but with Solas' thoughts and feelings.

I don't know fam, what are your favorite Solavellan fics?
I'm mostly interested in post-Trespasser ones, or self-insert "know everything & start over" ones, I find the angst even more intense in those. I also absolutely do not mind the smut, I actually welcome it, if introduced & written well (not much vibing with it being too gratuitous for example).

Damn I didn't realize how much I missed this thread and the conversations in it.

It's hard not to wonder about whether Solas didn't try to manipulate the Inquisitor into disbanding the Inquisition. It really looked that way.

But if what he wanted was to stop the Inquisitor, he had the perfect chance to kill him/her.
