WIP Whenever

Tidying up the last bits of the next chapter of my longfic In the Shattering of Things so I will share a bit for funsies!

“She has a point. At the very least you could entertain me,” I remind him. “Might distract you as well, to be honest. You can tell me true stories about Hawke.”

“I’m not sure I could do that to the Seeker. She’s heard them all before,” says Varric, leaning around me to glower in her direction.

“Yes, and I’m certain you told the Maker’s truth,” says Cassandra. “Something tells me you know exactly where that man is.” Varric glances at me like I might have given something away but I just peer back out of the corner of my eye with an almost imperceptible shake of my head.

“Well I want to hear about this Hawke fellow,” says Dorian, “I’ve heard the legends of course– ended a Qunari invasion in single combat against the Arishok… Stopped the mad Templar woman trying to annul an entire circle…” Varric sighs.

“And I was there for all of it,” he says. “The infiltration of Chateau Haine is my personal favorite escapade.”

“Mine too,” I remark automatically, though I feel foolish immediately as I've had it from a book. “A whose who of Thedas’ Very Important People? Near death experiences with Wyverns? Ham and cheese jokes? What’s not to love?”

“You’re a real fangirl, you know that Freckles?”

“I know. I can’t help it.”

“It tickles me that’s all,” he says.

“Maybe you should gift Dorian a copy,” I suggest.

“I wouldn’t believe everything you read,” says Cassandra, her ire piqued.

“That’s what I’ve been telling her,” says Varric. “Adding a little hogwash here and there sells it though.”

“I stand by my love of it no matter the veracity,” I answer, remembering how I’d curled up in my window seat on a pile of cushions and devoured every word, immersing myself in the embellished exploits of a crew of very real people. And now I’ve had my own exploits with my own crew including the illustrious author of the very book. How sharply my life has turned and for the better in so many ways. It's a shame it might end in a towering torrent of magic this morning.

“I don’t deserve you,” chuckles Varric. As if responding to my momentary fatalism, a streak of white blinds me as the mark awakens, hungry, pulling at threads I can’t see, suddenly humming, buzzing, singing. I collapse forward against Juniper’s mane and then push myself back up.

“The mark?” asks Cassandra, the set of her features grimmer than usual, concerned.

“I think it’s just… waking up,” I explain, fumbling with my mitten to take a look. The tendrils of green look more luminous, pulsating, the Breach tugging at the energy within it like it’s tethered.

“Does it hurt?” asks Dorian, his expression suggesting reminders of our time in the future as each rift spurred the mark’s expansion.

“Not yet,” I tell him, but I know what’s coming. I steel myself for it.

So I went searching for special dialogue for a romanced Alistair, who stayed with the wardens, about a HoF who made the ultimate sacrifice. Specifically for what he says in DAI. For reasons.

I know what he says about her when she's alive in DAI, so I was curious if he'd saying anything about her if she's dead, like Leliana and Morrigan do. After reading through all sorts of forms and reddit posts where most of the answers were "huh I dunno what he says in DAI, I've never done that route," I eventually found out what he says.

Nothing.

Romanced Alistair says nothing about a dead HoF in DAI. At first I thought this was odd? Surely there's something referencing the fact that he and the warden were in love? even if just for fanservice like in DA2? Some of the comments on these posts blame it on Bioware doing bad writing again but it's hard to tell if they actually mean that, or if they're conflating "I don't like this" with bad writing because honestly? I disagree.

Intentionally or not, Alistair not saying anything about his dead lover is completely in character for him. He doesn't know the Inquisitor. Why should he tell them anything about the love of his life that he lost ten years ago? He's not as open about that stuff like Leliana or Morrigan.

You know what's actually out of character? Alistair giving a random stranger he met for two seconds an item that belonged to his dead lover because "she doesn't need it anymore."

Wasn't it enough to ruin his face, DA2? Did you really need to throw in some botched fanservice as well?

Wait a minute, Varric's telling this story...

Alright, new headcanon: Varric is, as per usual, full of shit. Alistair did give Hawke an item because he felt bad that he couldn't help them with the qunari except it wasn't anything special. But that's not interesting enough, so Varric lied and said Alistair gave Hawke an item that belongs to THE Hero of Fereldan for the sake of showing how super special Hawke is.

#alistair theirin #hero of fereldan #varric tethras #da2 hawke #dao #dragon age origins #dai #dragon age inquisition #imagine alistair reading tale of the champion and getting to this part where he gives hawke an item that belonged to his dead lover #how insulted do you think he'd feel?#also i bet he gets a lot of questions about her regularly because everyone wants to know what the hof was *really* like #but he knows that they don't want to actually know her. they just want an exciting story with a big heroic figure at the center #oh also i couldn't find anything in video or on those forms but if by chance i DID miss anything and he actually says something #and we've all just missed it then let me know and i'll correct this but i haven't found anything and given dai's been out for a while #you'd think there would be something to easily find y'know?
