*crashes into the room out of breath and a crazed look in my eyes*
“you are so difficult, i’m trying to tell you something!”
“tell me what? what could you possibly tell me that would change this?”
“i love you!”
Who were the first characters that came to mind for this prompt and how? I must know everything, I beseech you!
don’t hurt yourself nonnie!! 🤣
But I immediately saw this and it came down to an internal vote of Anders or Cullen!!!
Tumblr media
The day seemed more frazzled than normal.
Talking to Iron Bull, meeting Josephine, breaking up whatever spat between Cassandra and—-
Or….wait! Was your meeting with Josephine today or tomorrow??
Noticing a letter that had King Alistair’s insignia on it, you felt your heart sink as you realized you were late for a meeting with him too.
Andraste preserve me, you thought as you snatched it and started to run for the door.
In your haste, you threw the door open and came to face the surprised face of Commander Cullen Rutherford. He seemed more nervous than usual? The slightest tinge of pink to his cheeks and under his eyes
“Inquisitor, you’re up early! Uhm, I—needed to speak with you—erm, about—.”
“Make it quick, Commander. I’m late for a meeting and who knows what else on this forsaken day!”
You hastily walked past him through the hall with the curly-haired man trailing behind you.
“Right, yes, as I was saying, I mean—-you and I, or rather I have started to—.”
There was a small sigh of frustration and the slightest eyeroll from you as he stumbled over his words.
Cullen could see the determined look on your face, no sign of listening on your part.
There was a deep sigh on Cullen’s end before he spoke.
“You are so difficult, I’m trying to tell you something.”
Throwing your hands up in exasperation, your voice was raised a few octaves.
“Tell me what, Cullen? What could you possibly tell me that would change this?”
You immediately regretted the biting tone in your voice as he flinched just the tiniest at your words.
“…I love you.”
It became so quiet in the hallways you swore a needle could drop.
Oh. Oh.
“Cullen, I—.”
“You don’t have to…say anything right now, but I had to tell you.”
There was no possible way you could leave him like this. Yes, the guilt was starting to eat at you but it was more than that.
Being thrown to each other’s side to work against Corypheus brought about more than just a professional dynamic. Late nights, travels, countless pouring over documents and physical training, you and the Commander were past being platonic.
Seeing a human side to Cullen was endearing to you, and there was a soft element that started to cultivate over all this time.
You grabbed the inside of his wrist, much to Cullen’s surprise, and pulled him close to hear your whisper.
“No, I mean it. I do apologize for my outburst.”
There was a glimmer of hope in his warm eyes as you tried to reassure him.
“We’ll talk later. I swear it, Cullen.”

I'm slowly getting back to life after a flu, so I can publish more of my Satinalia exchange pieces. As per usual, Solona and Cullen for @kittynomsdeplume in what was a very quick and sneaky treat 😆

I was tagged by @galaxywhale and funnily enough I've actually been writing for the first time in a while - lost in the post-Trespasser Cullen x Amell Sauce once again. Thank you for tagging me, Emily ♥️♥️
I'm curious if and what you guys are working at @isayashai @nabulsi
"I don't know why I came," Cullen said thickly. "I don't know what I was expecting."
"Perhaps you simply wished to see me." Everett's voice was so flat and genuine that Cullen felt almost dumb-struck by the suggestion. He felt Everett's thumb gently stroking over his cheek. "It needn't be more complicated than that."
Cullen swallowed down the anxiety sitting in his throat.
Maybe you can allow yourself this. Without guilt. Without shame.
A wave of relief washed over him as he recalled Amary'll voice, the sense of settlement within himself he left her quarters with last night. The muscles in his shoulders unclenched themselves, and Cullen allowed himself for the first time tonight to actually meet Everett's eyes, calmly and with intent.
They were cooler in the dim light of his room, with moonlight gently reaching through the window. Dark and still like the surface of the pond Cullen sought refuge at as a child. Long, downturned lashes framed Everett's brown eyes, casting shadows beside his uneven, bended nose.
With a steady breath out he relaxed further and could tell that something in Everett's face softened as well. He didn't smile, Cullen felt like he had never seen him smile, but something about his expression...
"I did want to see you."
"Then I am ever glad you came."
A pause, tentative and careful, then Everett bridged the gap between them and leaned in. Just before their lips connected, the mage held off, just a little. A quiet question. And Cullen, to his own mild embarrassment, answered by nodding instead of just leaning into the man on his lap. The quick breath that met his lips indicated a silent chuckle from Everett, and with renewed determination, Cullen closed the distance between himself and the other man, kissing him.

Done for the 30+ Valentine's event! We had to choose from a list of romantic songs and write a 1k or less fic based on one. I chose Wicked Games by Chris Isaak.
Fandom: Dragon Age, Dragon Age Origins
Pairing: Cullen/Amell (Disguised Desire demon/Cullen)
Rating: T
Uldred has fallen, and the mages' rebellion has ended in a blur of blood magic and abominations. Demons stalk the halls; commanding and compelling their mortal prey. Cullen stands firm in his belief that there is nothing they can tempt him with.

soooo
i made some romance playlists back in february and somehow never shared it, so here you go:
alistair x warden:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEAhgeu9SS8-uOQGVfVjWtq4JjXVrcOzD
zevran x warden:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEAhgeu9SS898jaUvCHDiEj1gCrj4Vlyq
cullen x amell:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEAhgeu9SS888XSycPxGst7i3Ll5EA0Vc
alistair’s and zevran’s i think fit with most ocs, but cullen’s was made specifically for my amell x cullen headcanons, where thay had this tentative innocent thing going on in the circle, both being kids and just enjoying each other’s company, not thinking about how this thing doesn’t really have a future, and how all what happened between amell’s conscription and the borken circle affected their relationship. and how they still missed each other even when they knew they shouldn’t, in the ten years between origins and inquisition, when they meet again.
also. cullen is experiencing massive religious guilt every time he thinks fondly of amell in kirkwall. he has massive ptsd from the broken circle.
amell has nightmares about cullen being tortured by that desire demon and often think of what if’s - what if they went to circle sooner, what if she pushed to talk to cullen afterwards instead of giving him space.
yes, it’s fully self indulgent and made in hope that it will inspire me to actually write something either in my au or my canon setting with alistair.
note that it’s still a work in progress and i am not fully sure of a few songs and i have more to add, i just need to pass my exams first. if you have some recommendations i will happily look into them.
and yeah, many songs are in all playlist, but let’s say they’re just fitting for origins’ vibe and warden’s story (i just love them and i couldn’t decide xd).

Penance Ch. 7: Excerpt
Full Fic -> Penance: AO3
Rating: Explicit | Pairings: Amell/Cullen, Amell/OC | Dark Romance
Chapter 7: Friends
The constant headache he had thinking of Ruvena lessened somewhat, and his mind drifted back to Amell.
He chewed on his lip, thinking of what he’d say when he saw her again.
His heart skipped a beat.
I’m going to see her again.
After so many years, how could the mere thought of her still make him burn?
She was trapped in his mind, forever, he hoped once they met again he might be able to move on. It was unhealthy how he still dreamt of her, he knew that, but he couldn’t help it.
He closed his eyes and imagined what she might be like now. It seemed impossible to envision her differently than he remembered.
She was still the apprentice in his mind. The sweet, smiling girl that had taken his foolish heart with the sound of her voice.
And the demons twisted that love into something horrible.
His skin prickled, and he frowned.
There was a knock at his door.
“Enter,” he said, grateful for the distraction.
Leoric opened the door, letter in hand, “I’ve just read the letter! He married, uh…” Leoric looked at the letter again, “Lady Shayna, now Teyrna Cousland.”
Cullen’s stomach flipped and he felt ill, “M-married Lady Shayna?” he repeated stupidly.
“Yes,” said Leoric. “You know who that is?”
“I, no,” he lied. “You didn’t have to come tell me this.”
“Well, you asked, and I couldn't remember, so,” Leoric winced, popping his hip. “I’ll leave you be, Knight-Captain.”
“Thank you.”
Leoric closed the door, and Cullen felt queasy. Reaching for the stale water on his desk, he chugged it in one go.
Married to the Teyrn.
This complicated things.
How could he waltz in, and take a Teyrn’s wife? The Order dictated he could, by all rights, but the Teyrn was second only to the King of Ferelden and it was no secret King Alistair despised the Templar Order.
King Alistair had also seen him at his worst, crying in a cell.
Had he slipped and mentioned the demon to them? It was so long ago, and he couldn’t remember. That time felt like a nightmare, covered in tarp and buried under sand.
If he were caught trying to kidnap Teyrn Cousland’s wife, there would be scandal and he doubted King Alistair would side with him. Especially if he remembered the insanity he was babbling on about all those years ago.
Cullen shook the thoughts from his head. It was too big a problem for him to figure out now.
He’d think of something, he usually did, because what he knew for certain was that he had to see her again. No matter the cost.
And he only had two months to prepare.

I’ve officially made Rayne and Cullen an AU. I’ve changed Rayne’s blog and put everything pertaining to them on it’s own page as an AU.
I’m both sad and... happy may not be the right word for it. But I feel better about this choice than I have about their ship in a long time. I’m sad because of all the time invested and knowing that once upon a time I loved their ship, but it hasn’t felt right in a long time. So I fee like this was the right choice. Will she be a single mom, with bed fellows? Will I pair her with somone else; if so who? We’ll see what happens with Rayne in the future :)
