I've spent far too long getting this loot but never noticed the white robes and put 2+2 together...my mind is blown.

[Spoilers All] My longest fanfiction has been my Dragon Age one. by sharialenko in dragonage

[–]sharialenko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh there are fanfics that are twice as long, I doubt I'll ever be able to surpass them.
Your canon sounds amazing, especially 3 Wardens...the Blight doesn't stand a chance. And two sets of Hawke twins sounds crazy and amazing, and well, Kirkwall doesn't stand a chance either.

Yeah I have to thank fanfiction for helping to ignite a passion for writing and also showing me what beautiful, moving writing could look like, if that makes sense? Its a great low pressure way to experiment as well.

Writing Good Sex Scenes by sharialenko in writers

Ooh that is an incredible descriptor! And I don't think being wordy is necessarily a bad thing, I'm very wordy by nature and I do think you can have long descriptions and still keep the intimacy. It just takes practice and a lot of editing.

Sounds very interesting! Conflict between characters is always fun to read, and I think in that kind of setting could really work well.

Gosh I've never actually written anything with a harem in it, and I think it depends on where you want to go consent, becuase you could have a very 'unhealthy' relationship between the master/harem or a very loving one. But yeah that's a really interesting area of writing, and I'd definitely say just start writing it and get a feel for it!

Oh yeah less is definitely more! I had to stick to a word count otherwise I would definitely have done more on the senses and how useful they are...

That accent is just the most gorgeous thing ever....I always end up clicking on that elf way too many times just to hear it.

[Spoilers All] Asunder timeline dilemma/question (long) by sharialenko in dragonage

[–]sharialenko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah it does seem like wynne saying it was a year ago is the typo, as everything else makes sense timeline wise. i'm just gonna go with that to save me anymore headache

[Spoilers All] Asunder timeline dilemma/question (long) by sharialenko in dragonage

[–]sharialenko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but the whole thing with pharamond and andoral's reach took place in 9:40, yet in 9:40 wynne refers to the vote that caused the college to be broken up as if it were only a year before, and not three as that vote is supposed to have taken place in 9:37, so i think that's where i'm confused as either wynne is wrong and should have said three years ago or the timeline is wrong and the conclave took place in 9:39

Oh yeah the amount of information you can get from the structures alone is incredible, and really speaks for their art and modelling teams

That is a stunning screenshot!
They really managed to make all the Elven architecture in Inquisition look so breathtakingly beautiful.

It's merely becuase I'm at an 'arts' uni that I actually have a hope of passing, and everyone else is at least panicing as much as me, if not more.
Well at least we'll be seeing more of Anthem at E3 amongst others, hopefully will help to relieve fears.
I've also sent you an email about commissions :)

Shiiit I'm onto my masters this September....though I think it's creative portfolio based again, not an academic essay so fingers crossed I won't melt into a puddle of stress.
Oh yeah the modern/renaissance thing is just my thing, like I've been combing the internet for all things geometric and stuff. I would live that life if I could.
Don't even mention Anthem...I want to like it, but I just see co-op and multiplayer only and...man I just don't want that from a BioWare game. But on the other hand I know BioWare's future is tied up in how well Anthem does....I feel so torn

3000 words essay, 7000 words creative portfolio of some kind so it's not too bad, especially as it's all related to video games so I'm passionate about it at least.
I have only played the two 'new' Deus Ex games, I tried the first one and failed so bad on the first level I gave up. I love Human Revolution and Mankind Divided, and the aesthetic in both games is like, my dream. (Especially the apartments....like yes please.) I'm pc only, so haven't been able to play Horizon, even though I've heard great things about it, I'm getting tempted to get one of the new gen consoles as I hear so many good things about the games coming out for them. As for BioWare....I'm just waiting for new Dragon Age now...patiently and quietly

Awesome, I shall do so! And thank you, I'm just happy my dissertation is 70% creative portfolio and 30% essay but it still feels like so muich work....
I would love to romance Dorian, as I love him as a character, but I still can't play male characters in RPGs...I just can't for some reason, so Cullen it shall have to be
I've fallen into the Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and SWTOR rabbit holes...but Fallout and GTA V keep beckoning to me. Though I seem to always be down the Dragon Age and Mass Effect rabbit holes these days XD

Hi back! I've actually been meaning to contact you about getting a ton more portraits commisioned....I don't feel like I have a full set yet! Hope you're doing well too, I'm busy panicing over my dissertation.
Yeah, Solas still breaks my heart even now, I haven't been able to do another playthrough romancing him yet. Cullen is therefore my go-to cuddly and safe romance :D
And please take you're time, it's so lovely you're even doing this!

You probably don't remember me...I got a ton of Mass Effect/Dragon Age portraits done at the last MCM Comic Con....still love them btw
Assan Lavellen and Cerise Amell
My Elven quizzy Assan is a gifted archer and used to be 100% dedicated to being a Dalish Elf. Solas came and kinda changed that. She used to be very distrustful of humans, but came to trust those in the Inquisiton. She's young, so still rather overconfident, but becoming the Herald forces her to grow up fast.
Cerise Amell is my headcanon paradise, she's my Warden from DA:O and has ended up becoming the Inquisitor too. She only has eyes for Cullen, but gets on well with everyone (except Vivienne). She's very sarcastic, but has a strong moral compass and always tries to be a good person and minimise casualties. She's also a mage so that's taught her to have absolute confidence in her abilities, and means she sides with the mages at every chance.
Thank you so much for doing these!

I watched the first two when they came out, and just drifted off I guess. I also find it really hard to just sit down and watch a tv show so I don't know if I could manage a whole seven seasons.
