Kitashi Updates - 4/19/23

Well, it has certainly been awhile lol Hello there! How’s everyone doing?

I’ve honestly avoided tumblr for a long time, only peeking in here and there when I have gotten the occasional tag from some very sweet people who still read & recommend my old fics. I’m actually not even sure I’m making a good choice posting now. It’s been over 5 years since ACOWAR & a lot has happened in my life. My last actual Update post that wasn’t a reblog (which was from like, what, 2017???) unexpectedly ended up documenting one of those life changing moments where your whole world turns upside down for the better. The ‘Rhysand Archeron’ player character I met while leveling up my gatherers in FFXIV (which this game is the reason my backlog of games now rivals my backlog of books 😓) had our first date less than 4 months after that post 😅 We’ve been together ever since & have been as happy as can be (though he goes by a different character name these days) 💜

The reason I’m here though is because of a few friends and family of mine (including 2 who asked me less than 12 hours apart & have no connection to each other) out of the blue about a week ago asked me, “Have you read/heard of ACOTAR?” 🤔

*cue manic laughter*

To make a long story much shorter & not bore you, after discussing with a few of them, I agreed to give the graphic audiobooks of ACOTAR, ACOMAF, & possibly ACOWAR a shot, to see if anything has changed for me in all this time. And some things clearly never do, because I made it to approximately the end of Chapter 4 of ACOTAR before I got inspiration for a fanfic. From Nesta’s POV of all things.

I’m nothing if not a glutton for punishment lol

I can’t promise how this will all go. I’m honestly very hesitant. But I’m willing to give it a second chance & see where it takes me.

Hope y’all are doing well! 👋💜

was talking with the group chat about how sjm has handled Mor and @kitashiwrites made this :)

[illyriantremors]

Your favorite(s) for the Headcanon ask for Cazigan 😏 (I couldn't pick just one, so pick however many you want lol)

KATE I LOVE YOU AND WE ARE DOING THE SLEEPING HEADCANON BECAUSE SLEEPING IS MY FAVORITE FOR ALL SHIPS

Cazigan + Sleeping

So when all three of these morons are home together, they’re sleeping in Mor’s room. It smells nice. Incredibly nice. Which isn’t a difficult accomplish to manage when compared to the Gross Cass and Az sometimes drag home, but regardless - Mor scents her pillows with calming scents to help her sleep and the boys love it. They’ll never actually admit that’s why they prefer her room with the smaller bed and more feminine colors, but it is. And at the end of the day, those scents help them fall asleep too.

Mor is always - ALWAYS - the last one to wake up. And ‘wake up’ is putting it mildly. Cassian generally leaves the task of waking the beast up to Azriel because if Cass tries to do it, he gets too playful and expressive for Mor to deal with that early in the morning (even if ‘that early’ is 5pm). So Cassian goes out into the House and cooks a breakfast that generally is enough to finish rousing Mor if Azriel hasn’t already succeeded, which he usually has via soft touches and gentle kisses on her neck, whispering her name quietly. Mor appreciates the subtle approach. The last time Cassian tried, she’d wound up with hot tea spilled all over her sheets.

Things change drastically, however, if one of the three isn’t home and Mother above help whoever is stuck in the House when TWO of them are gone at once. The remaining pair usually takes up residence in the missing person’s room for the duration of their absence. The scent is just too inviting and comforting to ignore. There’s not much sexual activity going on either when one person is gone. Just lots of sleeping and holding and being very, very close for comfort in that bed until the other one comes back. These weeks are the only reason Rhys begins to suspect the three of them have started a thing. The three are really good at hiding it when they’re all three together, feeling good and playing off each other in their normal way. But when one person is gone, Rhys isn’t stupid. He sees Mor and Az together - in Cassian’s room, and he sees Az and Cassian together in Mor’s room when she’s at the CoN. Rhys, sad about his own empty bed, never says a word.

Being back together after a reunion is the best of times and so, so much fun. The antics they get up to in their various beds leads to some funny positions waking up in the morning. They don’t sleep in a normal position, even if they start out as such. It’s not uncommon to wake up and find Mor at the foot of the bed sprawled next to Cassian who is half hanging off the edge with Azriel still up by the pillows and so forth. It’s just too many tangles of limbs and wings and bodies and crazy sexual antics to stay put for one night.

However, on the nights where Mor is upset or Azriel is silent or Cassian is bloody, the three of them nestle in together, Mor always in the middle, and they just hold on until they’re asleep and even then a long while after. Those are the nights they don’t move. The Hard Nights. But they wouldn’t take them away for anything because waking up wrapped up completely in the two other people they care most about is worth everything.

For the first time in awhile, I got a burst of inspiration for one of my original novels.

Of course, it happens while I am at work & can’t do much about it, but the warm feeling it brings, the thought of wanting to create again.... it is nice. ☺️

101-ish Dragon Age Questions

If you would like to do your own: 101 Dragon Age Questions

(I only did the questions I could/wanted to answer; they are all in the link)

1. How did you get into Dragon Age? @kitashiwrites recommended it to me!  Something my husband curses her for and something I love her for.

2. Have you finished all three games? :( I’m almost done with Origins, then I’ll work on DA2.  I have finished Inquisition.

3. What was your first Warden (gender/class/race/personality)? Aedan Cousland/male/human noble/rougish prince charming/second son who had no hope for the title/hopeless romantic/charm anyone/typical hero

4. First Inquisitor (gender/class/race/personality)? Teiran Lavellan/female/mage/elf/quirky/naive/fair-minded/non-Andrastian

5. Preferred class overall? I prefer mages, but Aedan is a rouge because that is better for him.  So in Origins I play as Morrigan a lot.

6. Do you tend to play male or female characters most?  Male I guess? Hawke and Aedan are male, but Teiran is female.  But outside of Dragon Age, I play female.

7. Do you prefer DA:O, DA2, or DA:I most? DA:I <3 I know this might just be because it’s the one I played first, but I feel like I enjoy the Inquisitor rather than being the Hero or the Champion.

8. Favorite mission from DA:O? Either Captured! or Orzammar.  I love how much Orzammar made me think about the options because there wasn’t a clear-cut, better answer to who should rule.  And for Captured! I felt that Aedan really shined with his silver tongue to get him and Alistair out.  But was equally amused by all the party members talking their way into Fort Drakon.

9. Favorite DA:O party combo? Morrigan, Shale and Alistair.  Aedan is a rouge so that fits for combat, but those are my favorite characters too. <3

10. Favorite DA:O companion overall?  Morrigan

11. DA:O: Did your Warden survive? Yep, God-baby

12. What did you name your Mabari?  Todd, meaning fox.

13. Who did you choose to rule Fereldan?  Anora rules alone.  Aedan doesn’t want to be King without Morrigan (yes, she does frequently disapprove of his romantic notions) and Alistair doesn’t want to rule/isn’t qualified to rule.  Anora has faults certainly, but she is the best candidate in my opinion.

14. Favorite main-story quest from DA:I? All of them? Probably Well of Sorrows or Recruiting the Mages/Time-Travel  (Teiran glares at me, “I’m glad you enjoyed those missions because I certainly didn’t.)

15. Favorite DA:I place?  Emerald Graves or the Hinterlands; I like green places.

16. Did your Inquisitor choose the Mages or the Templars?  Mages.  Rescue the jailed not the jailers.

17. Which did you leave behind (Abyss)?  Alistair.  I felt like this was a glorious death for a Grey Warden, which is all Alistair ever wanted to be.

18. Inquisitor’s feelings on being the Herald of Andraste?  Hates it.

19. Favorite DA character overall? Morrigan/Solas (I can’t pick between those two)

20. A character you’d love to drop in a volcano and forget about? Sebastian Vael  T.T

21. Who did you romance in your first playthrough for each game? Morrigan/Anders?/Solas

22. Who do you wish you could romance that you can’t? Scout Harding or Delrin Barris (who is the only warrior I’ve ever considered/I’d take him over Cullen too *shields from @kitashiwrites*)

23. Which 3 DA characters would you want as your best friends? all of them (except Sebastian)

24. Did you see Dawn of the Seeker? Yes! Good Cassandra background.

25. What are you hoping for from DA4? *tears* solavellan. . . .

26. What are you worried about for DA4? *tears* solavellan. . . .

27. Do you create anything in the fandom (write, draw, craft, gif, etc)? Yeah. . .I write on Ao3 and here on tumblr

28. Do you own any DA merchandise? Not yet. . .

“Cassian explained to Mor, “He fought against Eris and the other two.”

Mor’s throat bobbed, noting the blood staining Cassian’s hands--realizing it wasn’t his own. Scenting it, no doubt, as she blurted, “Eris. Did you--”

“He remains alive,” Azriel answered, shadows curling around the clawed tips of his wings, so stark against the snow beneath our boots. “So do the others.”

Lucien was glancing between all of them, wary and quiet. What he knew of Mor’s history with his eldest brother. . . I’d never asked. Never wanted to.

Mor tossed her mass of golden waves over a shoulder. “Then let’s go home.”

__

Don’t you think if Mor truly experienced the early stages of a panic attack right then and there, it would have worsened the second Azriel mentioned Eris and his brothers remained alive? Don’t you think instead of simply, casually, tossing her golden hair over her shoulder and declaring they all go home, she’d be on the verge of an anxiety attack, pondering about how close Feyre was to the man who supposedly abused her?

Since we’re on the topic, don’t you think instead of watching her warily and quietly, Lucien would have reassured her that Eris was indeed an awful person? To me, it shows that Lucien has seen the good and the bad in Eris, and perhaps he is not aware of the full story regarding those two, but he knows enough that Mor should not be scared of Eris/Eris would have never attempted to hurt her physically. Those sentences prove to me that, in the spin-offs, we will delve into Lucien’s point of view during the initial announcement of the marriage arrangement between Mor and Eris. (Flashback-type scenarios, maybe.)

Let’s keep it civil with our responses please. Refrain from name-calling, swearing (this may be pushing it haha) and any PERSONAL attacks.

This post is about this particular passage. Do not shove irrelevant information down my throat. I can address other issues through PM or another post. Thank you.
