Warden Cousland - Blog Posts

*sweats profusely* These have been laying around my art folder for the good part of a year now, but I figured I’d post them in honor of Zevran week.

//I’m still taking prompts for the drawing challenge by the way, if you want to request something, please do it asap

return to the old ball and chain

when everything’s made to be broken i just want you to know who i am

small snippet from a writing drabble i was inspired to pick up while drawing this piece. i am very out of practice so do forgive me

“There’ll be no more running for our lives. No more Darkspawn and no more camping in the middle of nowhere!” He smiled broadly at her for a moment before his brows furrowed and his smile faltered. “I know it…” he started as he gazed into Ellanna’s eyes more deeply than before, “might sound strange, considering we haven’t known each other very long, but I’ve come to… care for you. A great deal.”

Ellanna’s heart pounded against her ribcage and her eyes widened as she returned Alistair’s gaze. Yet, she stepped closer. Only by a few inches but it was enough that she now could feel his own hastened breath on her cheek and she felt his hands come to rest on either side of her waist as he parted his lips to speak again.

“I think maybe it’s because we’ve gone through so much together, I don’t know. Or maybe I’m imagining it. Maybe I’m fooling myself. Am I? Fooling myself?” His amber gaze was so piercing then that Ellanna could not even blink. “Or do you think you might ever… feel the same way about me?”

like hunting for a cure for the calling or smth idk

"Some call you Hero, and some call you Queen

But to me, you're the last rose of Lothering."

❤️❤️❤️ The style, the looks on their faces!

Should finally start from Origins again, rogue Cousland was my first ever DA protagonist and this pairing would be a perfect base for a new full playthrough. Cousland + Zevran (both alive), Hawke + Fenris (side with mages), Lavellan + Pavus (side with mages, inquisition disbanded), Ingellvar + Davrin (both alive, Maevaris archon so happy retirement to Pavellan). Hmmmm...
