Haven't done one of these in a few weeks! (Post 1 of 2)

[twist_shimmy]

It's time for another WTF screenshots post! This time with videos! :D

Before we get started, here's a short video of Jessa and Jethann scarring Bethany for life. (The music is what I was listening to when I hit record rather than something I chose to, uh. Set the mood.) Oh, and for the record, never listen to the ambiance in the Blooming Rose via headphones. I don't want to know how much that man had to pay to get the service that made him make those noises. ._.

...You're thinking about loading your game and listening, aren't you. Goddamnit. It's not going to be my faaaaault.


Okay. Next up we have various screenshots. A while back nagia asked me to track down my glitched Oghren screenshots, and I finally did. Basically Faolan walked into Blackmarsh, looked up, and found Oghren 1) stuck on top of a rock, and 2) impaled by a treebranch. Observe! (All of these can be clicked through for large.)






Next up, we have HUG TIME WITH CAUTHRIEN.




And DOUBLE EXPRESSION FAIL.




And for the final DAO screenshot, we have... *sighs* It just makes me die of laughter. Look at the subtitle, and then their faces, and then the dog. This is the only time Adhara has ever looked even REMOTELY PLEASANT.




( DA2 screenshots, no spoilers +4 )

( Varric Act 2 Personal Quest Spoiler +1 )

( Final Battle Spoilers (+2) )

I also have some videos to post, but for the sake of sanity will relegate them to a different post. This is getting long.

Jethann knows, my friends. Jethann knows.

I can think of no better expert when it comes to the subject of going down. Although I don't believe he knows what a website is...



Ah, to think, after so many days of functionality it's down again.  Who would have guessed?
(this blatant abuse of my authority brought to you by Jethann's enchanting blue eyes)

The current damage, from what I've seen:
*can't log in
*updates posted in the last 10 hours not visible
*can't submit reviews

Edit: And then it was up... and down again.  Glorious!
So... Does anyone need an Archive of Our Own invite?  I've got ten.  I literally hit "request invites" and gave "to woo people in the DA fandom away from ffnet" as my reason... and about two hours later ten shiny new codes were dropped into my account.  Drop me a PM with your email address.

Video evidence that I should be sleeping. (Post 2 of 2)

IF THIS POST MESSES UP ONE MORE TIME I AM GOING TO DIE.

Right now I have a mage friendmancing Fenris. I designed Vera for Anders, but it turns out Vera doesn't like mages, so... uh. We restarted Act 2 and now have a healthy, healthy relationship with the hottie who hates everything she is just as much as she does.

Woo!

But what surprises me is how different a friendmance is with a mage than it is with a non-mage. ( Act 2 romance spoilers and two vids under the cut )

On a lighter note, here's a video capture of a kiss and wallslam that didn't... render quite right. I won't call this spoilery since it's a clip with relatively little dialogue and everyone knows you can kiss Fenris.

WAT.

I saw the bedroom toys, now I'm crawling...

You know the way I said this would conclude in Part 2? Yeah, sorry about that. It's kind of got away from me. But! I am sure - well, very nearly sure - it will conclude in Part 3!

The Thing with Feathers, Ch. 2 (DA2 fic)

[solitae]

There's so much fantastic stuff to read that I'm having trouble finding time to write! (I'm pretty sure I'll cope.) You guys are awesome and spurring my creativity massively, so thanks ;)

Also, much love to drakontion for the hard work as a beta.

Mods, would it be possible for me to get a "The Thing with Feathers" series tag? Pretty please with Fenris on top?

If anyone is looking for it, Chapter 1 is here.
