First!

It's been a while since I was on LJ, so it feels funny to be back on a blogging site like this. I've always liked the format, though. Watch this space for talk of all my faves and ships from video games, book, and TV. When it comes to fanfic and fanart, you'll find mostly slash here, mixed with some femslash and a bit of het, and a lot of WIPs I'm trying to juggle.

Current fandoms: Vampyr, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, FFXV, Assassin's Creed (especially 1, 2, 3, 4 and Odyssey), Overwatch, BBC Sherlock, Star Wars: Rogue One, Pacific Rim, Yuri!!! on Ice, Rivers of London, Warhammer 40k books, generally literature, anime, video games, fanfic exchanges

I mean, I'm totally biased because I wanted the Varric romance, but I thought the Bianca story was pretty underwhelming. After all that song and dance about the crossbow in DA2, the best you can give us is Romeo and Juliet with dwarves? That's... weak, some sort of lost/tragic love is what everyone expects it to be when you hear Varric called his crossbow a woman's name, where's the twist in that?

Sadly not, I've been a bit out of the fandom for a while and just getting back into the real fannish side. Maybe I can, uh, provide a temptative one soon though, haha. I've always wanted to write that Grumpy!MHawke/Varric longfic that I've never found (grumpy meaning aggressive dialogue but friendlier choices... basically the Renegon/Paragade of ME, heh).

It was extremely underwhelming. Maybe I would have liked it more if I actually liked Bianca's character, but mostly I just felt bitter when I first played through that section in Inquisition. Varric deserves so much better, goddamn it.

Ah fair enough! I tend to ah... avoid the fandom for the most part, but I'm hoping that with this whole switch up perhaps I'll be tempted to explore it a bit more. Reading fics are still a comfort, and I still find myself reaching for my favourites for bi-annual re-reads, but the passion to discuss/debate/go into headcanons isn't quite there anymore.

Oooooooh! If you do write it, I would love to read it!! I've only read a few pieces that are Varric x f!Hawke, and I am really curious to see the different takes on the relationship. :)
