Alright, this might catch you all by surprise. Not only because it is actually FINISHED (Yes, I know!), but because it is, well, the first thing I, Abstract, have done quasi-alone in a very long time, in a friendly competition with IvI.
Now, you see, as we were sipping some wine over Easter, we struggled to think which two DA characters would least go well together as a romance goes. And well, you've seen the character listing 😊 (It was probably bad wine, but, hey-ho…)
IvI is writing his own, and we'll let you know when it's up. Should not be too long; I've picked Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker (the young hot-headed Cassie centered animation) as my setting, IvI's is very much different.
So, without further introduction, please proceed to probably the crackiest thing I have done in ages. Hope it gives you a giggle, and a thought, and thank you in advance for reading and commenting 😊
Cheers,
Abstract.
P.S. & Serious Lore Note: As is sometimes sadly the case, DA lore is inconsistent with itself, and there are two major inconsistencies here.
The first one is the timeline – World of Thaedas and World of Thaedas 2 place the events of Dawn of the Seeker long before the events in Kirkwall, and Cassandra in her very early twenties at the time of the movie. The movie contradicts this, and breaks the 'official' timeline, because, should DofS happened after Kirkwall, Cassandra would be in her mid to late 20s in DA:I. This is at odds with her age in the game, her official date of birth, and the actual transition from Divine Beatrix III to Divine Justinia V, and the beginning of Celene Valmont's reign. Thus, I shall stick to the official timeline.
The second one is the fact that Cassandra is actually given the Inquisition writ by Divine Beatrix, not by Divine Justinia. This does not contradict much, and in fact is consistent with the story Cassandra tells of herself in DA:I, so this one, I decided to keep as is.
