Goodnight (I love him)

#Blackwall #DAI #nsfw #pleaseonechanceplease
Thom (Blackwall Dragon Age) is sitting nude on a wooden chair in the barn. His hands are on his thighs, and behind/to the side of him is a flickering fire in the pit. He's covered in dark hair (yay thank you KC <3), with grey streaks at his temples. Taken from a low angle, right above his thighs, looking up. Frankly, this image is giving me many Thoughts. Thom, approaching the fire. Still nude (seen from the thighs up and from the side), his face is turned toward the flame and away from the viewer. Beyond the fire is a drinking tankard, some barrels, sacks; the wall behind those is decorated with tapestries and wagon wheels.

The fade to black is killing me. Let me watch.

#ThomAndMira #OCMira
Thom (Blackwall Dragon Age) and Mira (my Dalish Inquisitor) in their room at night, in front of the lit fireplace. The shot is closely cropped on the pair as they embrace: Thom's hand is on Mira's waist, sliding toward her ass as he leans in to kiss her neck. He's also completely undressed, but nothing is showing other than a glimpse of chest hair.

Aging some dragons or whatever

#ThomAndMira #DAI
A Northern Hunter (dragon in Dragon Age: Inquisition) pushing itself to stand on its rear legs. Its wings are beginning to extend and are stretched up in front of a full moon. One claw rakes the ground in front of it; the other claw is lifted into the air as it roars. The Northern Hunter has closed the distance between Thom and Mira. It towers over them, and as Thom slashes with his sword, Mira tries to back up to fire off arrows. The ground dances with electricity, and though Thom has tried to pull the dragon's attention to himself, it is focused on Mira (oh, she got zapped good). The Northern Hunter in flight with its wings extended (and body hanging down) in front of a full moon.

#Blackwall #DAI #DAVP
A screenshot of Blackwall on the Storm Coast during the quest "Explanations." In his hand is the Warden-Commander's badge he and the Inquisitor found (by surprise), which has shaken him. In this shot, the badge in his hand is in the foreground, and behind it, he's turned to the side, facing it, but not looking at it. Sunlight is bright behind him, lighting the autumn trees and stone hills. He looks a little ragged and damp from the rain. (I want him)

"Definitely gonna be a Nightmare at Adamant, a place neither of us has ever been to. Best we haul ass in that direction soon. Shit's looking bleak."

Mira: "kay. Wanna make out?"
Thom and Mira smooching outside the barn. Thom's shirtless, and Mira's wearing a comfy shirt that definitely covers her whole chest (you can't see anything). Thom's leaning against the wall behind her, with his arm stretched up and his palm against the exterior barn wall.

Couldn't decide which one I liked better

#Blackwall #DAI
A screenshot from Dragon Age: Inquisition of Blackwall mid-fight. His shield is raised behind him, and the shot is taken from just in front of his right arm, closely cropped on his face. His eyes are narrowed, and he's intensely focused on the enemy ahead (not pictured). The landscape behind him is blurry, though the branches and leaves of trees are visible. A very similar shot to the previous one, but in black and white, and with Blackwall looking a bit more toward the viewer.

'Cause you're hot, then you're cold, you're-- god dammit, I'm on fire again.
A screenshot from Dragon Age: Inquisition of a rage demon and a despair demon side by side. The rage demon looks like living lava, covered in flames; the despair demon's face is a screaming mouth full of teeth, and its body is wrapped in a dark robe while it holds itself as if its freezing.

DOS2 undefeated!

(Easily over 1250 hours in DAI, too, but not all on one platform, and I haven't put as much time into that as I have DOS2--only shocking if you don't understand how much I adore DOS2 (the amount is so enormous as to be incomprehensible))
Screenshot from Steam of my Divinity: Original Sin 2 play time: 1,757.3 hours (Last played Nov 10). The DOS2 game cover art is to the left of the text regarding the playtime and last played date.

I have a sickness (can't stop thinking about #OCMira and how little she ever gets to ACTUALLY relax)
Sorry, I keep thinking about this, so I'm gonna yap more. During DAI, Mira reaches most often for the comfort that's most easily accessible + allows her to multitask in some way, because her days are busy and her nights, when her time is her own, aren't nearly as long as she'd like them to be. Drinking with friends/coworkers/whatever is relaxing, but it's also work, in a way: she's maintaining her social life, she's checking in with the people around her, building goodwill with subordinates and making time to be around (and one of) regular folk— which is where she wants to be, but not where her position really allows her to spend a lot of time. Like, damn, that's kinda exhausting, even though she does enjoy it. And the things she does to relax outside of that—spending time with other people who aren't her Person—are pretty basic throughout DAI, and most of it is still her multitasking. She wants to relax? Okay, then she'll take a bath (washing up done for the day now), or take a nap (finally, some much-needed sleep, even if it's just an hour or two), or read and have some coffee (she needs something to keep her awake for the next meeting, and she's behind on the reports she's meant to look over). Honestly, intimate time with Thom probably is the only thing she does to relax that actually counts as her relaxing. Post-DAI, she's better able to figure out what she actually enjoys, and even though it's a lot of the same things, it's different when she can do them without categorizing them in her head as Thing She Needed To Do Anyway. She does like baths (fancy oils and soaking feel good!), and reading (for pleasure!), and mid-day coffee (for flavor!), and naps (didn't need one, but wanted one, so took one!). She rediscovers her love for gardening, then discovers that she loves to swim, and that it tires her out in a way she finds really pleasant. She likes to sit and watch animals that come to the lakeside, and will put food out for them, and sometimes-- Truncated

Mira really does like playing in the dirt, though. See: this drawing I did of a young Mira after "helping" with the planting. She's never been fussed about getting dirty (one of the many reasons she's always preferred practical clothes to anything nice-- she doesn't have to worry about ruining it).
An old (and rough!) digital drawing I did a while back of my OC, Mira, as a child, maybe around ten years old? or even a bit younger. She has no vallaslin (hasn't earned it yet) and is wearing a loose long-sleeved shirt. Both the shirt, and her face and hair, are covered in dirt. She's smiling awkwardly, maybe a little embarrassed, probably getting lightly scolded for getting so filthy before supper. Her grey eyes are wide, and she has a } smile as she looks up, like you couldn't possibly be toooo upset at her, look how cute she is! Her silver hair is mess, and her ears, sticking out from it, are also covered in dirt (don't worry, she grows into them).

Joke answer is to say "Thom"; serious answer is to say yeah, Thom, but also #OCMira likes to head down to the tavern and have a few drinks with her friends; maybe play some drinking games and drunkenly sing along to the music. She also likes to garden, but doesn't get to do much of that til post-DAI
A screenshot in Dragon Age: Inquisition of Blackwall (Thom), taken as a portrait. Viewed from the tops of his chainmail-covered shoulders up, he's looking at the viewer. He has (modded; thank you, KC <3) grey streaks in his hair at his temples, along with small studs in his earlobes. He also looks like he could really help Mira take the edge off. Better give them some privacy. Mira sitting at a table with her friends, drinking and playing cards. The shot is taken from over Varric's shoulder, with Mira sitting across fro him and smiling. The others aren't in the shot, but rest assured they're there, and that Thom is definitely losing all his money.

#OCMira is a snarky little shit who pulls off a perfect deadpan. Given that she spends most of her time with Thom, Solas, and Dorian—all perfectly happy to be snarky shits as well—I'd say that her humor is absolutely appreciated, at least when she's on the road. In the war room, not so much, maybe.
(Screenshot from DAI) A portrait of my Inquisitor, Mira: a Dalish elf with light skin, pale blue eyes, silver hair, and grey face tattoos & makeup, smirking at the viewer. Behind her are the blurred red of autumn trees, and her bow and arrows are visible from where they're strapped to her back.

More examples of the general style :D
A small crocheted Ifan (DOS2) held in my hand. He's wearing the outfit from the cover art: leathers with a fur draped over his shoulder. He has dark brown hair and facial hair, and green eyes. His face is scarred on his left cheek and forehead. Bestie's gorgeous Inquisitor, Hrafn Lavellan. She has red/orange hair that falls in messy waves, and a matching Mythal vallaslin over hear cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin. Her eyes are strikingly orange, her and outfit is mostly black, with a silver top and brown belt and boots. This was for an art trade that didn't end up happening, and I can't remember whether she's a Lavellan or an OC from the earlier games dressed in the DAI starter fit. Either way, she's a blonde elf with blue eyes and pink cheeks, wearing a green outfit with dark brown boots and gloves, a cape and neck scarf, and the whole thing is belted across the front. A tiny pouch hangs from her belt. (Not an OC) Crocheted Dorian from DATV, with long hair and smiling blue eyes. He's wearing light brown robes with armor on one shoulder, and grey boots.

I've been trying to find it for 20 minutes wtf
A still of Cindy Lou Hoo singing "Where are you, Christmas." The text changes the line to read "Where are you, center pull? Why can't I find you?", and added to the image near Cindy is a tangle of grey yarn barf. The yarn barf shot is not mine, but I am indeed trying to find the center pull in a skein of dark grey yarn, and it's going about as well.

If I opened OC ami slots again, would there be any interest in that? I could only take two, & I'd do my very best to get them delivered before Christmas, but couldn't guarantee it. Price would start at USD $125+ shipping for pieces like these (~7" tall, maybe taller, w/ needle felted face details).
A crocheted Rook from DA:TV. She has dark brown hair with reddish-brown highlights and soft brown eyes, and is wearing turquoise and red Battle Robes with brown belts and boots. The clothing beneath her robes is grey, and it covers most of her body and her arms, except for her hands, where her red gloves peek through. A crocheted doll of Albtraum, an OC with scarlet hair, very light skin, orange eyes, and freckles. His hair is a little curly and reaches far down his back. He's wearing black boots with silver buckles, dark brown trousers, a blue tunic with mauve embroidery around the sleeves, collar, and hem, and a white undershirt with long sleeves and a collar. His tunic is held tight to his body by a mauve belt with gold embroidery, and around his shoulders a short cloak is fastened (mauve with gold embroidery). He is about nine inches tall. A crocheted doll of Cecilia "Ilia" Trevelyan, a human f!Inquisitor with red hair pulled up into a bun, soft brown eyes, a sweet smile, and dressed in the DA:I "jammies": a blue long-sleeved shirt done up at the front with silver clasps, tan pants, and tall, brown boots. A crocheted Lavellan ami. She has Mythal's vallaslin across her cheeks, red hair, one green and one blue eye, and is wearing robes with a fluffy fur collar.

Can you tell I love Dragon Age? :D
A crocheted Dread Wolf from Dragon Age: The Veilguard. He is grey with brushed fur (acrylic) yarn for his body and ears, fluffy/scraggly black yarn for his mane and tail, and has six(!) needle-felted green/blue eyes. His muzzle is scrunched a little and lightly brushed with chalk pastels to add depth. Wired legs and neck allow for light posing. He stands here on four legs on a white backdrop, facing to the right. A (freehanded!) crocheted Blackwall (Dragon Age Inquisition) amigurumi, standing outside in the early morning sunlight in front of the branches of a pine tree. His arms are at his sides (kind of in motion) as he looks up and into the camera. He is 18"/46cm tall. He's wearing his casual outfit—brown gambeson, dark brown boots and gloves—and each piece of his clothing is detailed. His gambeson has white X stitching on his right upper arm, a belt (with a buckle, belt holes, and a "leather" strap to keep the tail down), a collar, ties and clasps down the front, and beneath the gambeson, a metallic chain shirt (peeking out from the open part beneath his belt, and a lighter tunic showing just beneath the very bottom of the gambeson. His boots and gloves are belted, and each belt has buckles, belt holes, and most have the same "leather" strap to hold the tails down. His gloves also are gloves, not mittens, so each hand has five fingers and a thumb. His boots are flat and dark grey on the bottoms, so he can stand (with some support). A belt is cinched around his waist, and beneath it is red/brown padding with white trim. This belt has a round buckle (all the other buckles on his outfit are square). Additionally, the belt is overly large, as it is in game, and so it loops around itself and hangs a bit—visible in pictures I'll put in the replies. His face is highly detailed and sculpted, using multiple sculpting techniques. His nose is crooked and protrudes from his face, his hair, including beard and mustache, are brushed yarn (and then needle felted to shape his facial hair and brows). His eyes are needle felted as well, and chalk pastels were used to color and shade his face to the best of my ability. Small amounts of chalk pastels were also used on his hair to lighten parts of his beard and temples. And, in all of that, I only stabbed myself with the felting needle once! :D My crocheted Taash from Dragon Age: The Veilguard wearing Plumed Platemail armor. They are 9 inches (23 cm) tall, with wired arms and horns, needle-felted eyes and brows, a bead necklace (secured), and painted and embroidered details on their armor. The armor is mostly teal (for the “feathered” arms, shoulders, and chaps), with a mint-blue plate covering their chest. Their midriff is exposed, along with their arms around their elbows. Their gauntlets each have a trio of off-white bone spikes (firmed-up and shaped with Mod Podge) sticking out just below the elbows. Wrapping along each arm is red “rope” yarn, which winds between the spikes and up to the shoulders, where it doubles up to resemble straps. Their boots are dark grey, with light grey cuffs (embroidered with gold); around their ankles are red ties and a gold disc. Taash’s long, white hair is braided and tied back with a gold cuff near the top of the braid, and a red band at the bottom of the braid (both crocheted). Their hair is secured with two small elastic bands beneath the red crocheted tie. In Taash’s right ear are two small gold hoops and a gold disc (all yarn). Similar discs decorate Taash’s boots and belt, and hang from the ropes on their arm. A small gold stud is embroidered below Taash’s mouth, and a gold ring circles a small amount of hair at Taash’s widow’s peak. Taash’s right horn is green, with a thick gold cuff at the horn’s base, along with a thinner cuff near the middle-end of the horn. Their left horn is brown and features another thick cuff at the base, and a thin gold wrap near the end of the horn. I lost track of how long this took me to make, but I’d estimate between 30-40 hours. A small (7.5" tall) amigurumi of Cole Dragon age. He's wearing a large hat that hides a lot of his face, a patched, raggedy top with a quilted shoulder pad, a belt around his midsection, and dark trousers. He has a dagger in each hand. In this shot, I'm holding him in my hand in front of a white backdrop.

Honestly, because I tend to replay as #OCMira so often (since it's such a comfort, and frankly, the most fun to me), I'd say this is my permanent party aside from when I do other companions' quests. Thom, Dorian, and Solas.
(All images in this post are screenshots from the game Dragon Age: Inquisition) A high shot of a secluded area of the Hinterlands at night. The moon is full and hangs in a dark sky full of smoke. Trees and mountains span on in the distance, and atop a high hill, a dragon sits with its wings outstretched in a pool of flames. Smaller fires can be seen amidst the trees below, and a tall stone tower stands in the middle of the scene. Thom (Blackwall) in the Storm Coast near the waterfront. He faces the viewer with his sword and shield in hand. His armor is dark, and the sun is bright on the water behind him. Dorian fighting in a forest filled with autumn colors. He swings his staff back as he reaches out with his other hand. Solas mid-attack, his arms raised up as he swings his staff over his head. Bolts of magical energies streak around him.

nothing fucks with my baby (not even arcane horrors)

#ThomAndMira
From Dragon Age: Inquisition: Thom (Blackwall) stands in front of Mira on the ramparts in the Exalted Plains as an arcane horror approaches. In his right hand, his sword is pointed to the sky and held at chest level; in his left hand, his shield is lifted. He stands firm and glares. Behind him, in the space visible between his sword and chest, Mira crouches slightly, holding her bow. The area at their feet is foggy and grey.

#ThomAndMira
(DAI screenshots for both images in this post) It's night in Skyhold, and Thom (Blackwall) and Mira (my Inky) are out on the battlements. Thom holds Mira to his (bare) chest as she leans against him, his cheek pressed to her forehead. Her hand is on her shoulder, and his arms are around her waist. The same scene from the previous image, but taken from a closer and higher angle.

Searching high and low for requisitions to interrupt our conversations with, what a go-getter

#DAI
A screenshot from Dragon Age: Inquisition, taken in the Exalted Plains. On the road leading from the starting camp, the requisitions officer is stuck in the ground. Visible from the chest up, she has her arm over her forehead, like she's blocking the sun as she searches for something (the sun is not on her at all).

A screenshot from Dragon Age: Inquisition, of my party in the Exalted Plains. Mira stands in the foreground to the right, looking tired and a little perplexed. Behind her and to the left, her companions stand together talking. Thom's back is to her, with Dorian and Solas on either side of him, both with their faces turned toward Mira.

Blackwall (Thom Rainier) in the Hissing Wastes. He and the party have just met Erimond and have discovered that the Grey Warden mages are using blood magic, which Erimond has claimed is of their own volition. Blackwall is upset, scowling as he protests Erimond's claim.

Mira is in the foreground, with Thom and Solas just behind her, kinda framing her. All are giving looks that could kill. Also, man, I just love the dynamic the three of them have (four, really, Dorian, how come you had to stand so far away?). I love this part in my canon/longfic/au/whatever, and it's impossible for me to play and not basically be living it all out in my head the entire time. aaaaaAAAAaaa
