"It goes beyond dread. It can't be reasoned with or soothed over. It comes without warning, in the dead of night, in sunlit streets. A raw, strangling fear, struck somewhere deep past the heart." A study\redraw of "Death and the Maiden" by Marianne Stokes
Dorian x Lavellan
Helping the Inquisition save the world turned out to be a much more cut and dry ordeal than Dorian had anticipated. He went back to their quaint little village, joined a small army of mages gathered in some ghastly cold, crumbling ruins, and almost — but not quite — helped said small army kill the supposed Herald of Andraste by forcing their combined arcane power through his little body like a pissed wyvern through a peephole. For all of Dorian's certainty that they were making a martyr of him, the poor man handled the surge as well as he could, hair crackling like a thunder cloud as he forced the frayed edges of the Fade back into place and pulled tight the seam between worlds. And then, ta-da! The green light faded, the breach was closed, and the world was saved. All in all, Dorian had only had to commit a few days of service to the cause.
What if Dragon Age is a dating sim game set in a modern universe?
Rook: So you studied under Emmrich when you were younger?
Dorian: You make it sound like I'm old, but yes, I did.
Rook: Was he as charming then as he is now?
Dorian: Time has certainly not diminished his good looks and charm. Still drawing everyone's attention with the flick of a wrist.
Rook: Ohh am I hearing that THE great Dorian Pavus had a crush on his professor?
Dorian: Flattery will not get you the answers you're looking for. Now off you go, I believe the professor was looking for you.
(And who can blame him?))
