so, yeah, idk guys--
this blog and my solas sideblog have been kind of lingering at the back of my mind all month iāve been gone; and not really in a goodĀ way? typically, when i leave a blog and come back to it, iām not really thinking about it until the moment I decideĀ āohey! i feel like returning to cullen!ā but for some reason the entire time Iāve been over on another blog, my dragon age muses keep creeping up, but with bad vibes? idk itās really hard to describe.
itās not guiltĀ for not being here. itās almost like--i keep thinking about how iāll return here and iām close to dreading it?Ā Not actually dreading it, but just... itās like iām nervousĀ about coming back and it keeps weighing on me when itās never done that before.
iāve expressed this so many times, but the dragon age fandom has always felt like hOME to me. so iād return and just kinda feel warm and fuzzy and happy to be back but--now itās more likeĀ āoh god not this extended family gathering again.ā not entirely sure what happened or what this shift in feelings spawned from, but
iām just really not feeling great about this blog or being back here at all.
donāt get me wrong. i adore Cullen. i love my roleplay partners and have loved everything weāve done together but hmmm. idk? maybe the toxicity of the da fandom finally bled into me and i canāt shake it right now? what was once home now just feels toxic and judgmental (NOT ABOUT ANYONE IN PARTICULAR, just kinda watching stuff from the sidelines typically) and it makes me less eager to be here.
shrugs
not sure what to do atm. iām still happily on another blog rn so i wasnāt planning on bringing cullen off of hiatus anytime soon anyway, but.
just an update, i guess? i wonāt think too hard about it right now, but. my only choice might honestly be to just start over fresh and recreate cullen with no ties back to this blog. maybe i just need to come back into the fandom fresh or something.
tba. <3 thanks for everyone who has stuck with me for so long.

hehĀ so like?? surprise SURPRISE iāve vanished again.
I think one thing Iāve come to learn about myself after many years on his hell site is that I legit can only mentally focus on one blog at a time? in the case of this blog and my Solas sideblog, itās differentĀ because theyāre connected and of the same universe and whatnot so thatās fine, but rping muses from entirely different worlds or whatever? Thatās where my brainās like tsk, nope.Ā youāve only got the capacity for ONE, gurl. pick and choose.
sooooo itās kind of starting to become a ritual now where I cycleĀ through what blogs i currently have muse for. As of right now, itās only Cullen/Solas and one other muse whose blog has been holding my interest the past couple of weeks and therefore blocking Cullen out. If this pattern continues, then you should all expect me back here at the next turn of the cycle, whenever that may be, where I abandon thatĀ muse to come back to Cully.
shrugs into the abyss idk!! I have no idea how multimuses can do anything bc i always have one very strong muse on my mind for weeks/months at a time with no room for anyone else. Kudos to you.
tl;dr sammyās at it again. this blog will remain inactive for an undetermined amount of time, but rest assured. i always return by unpopular demand~Ā none of you are safe.
until then, toodles!!

so randomly and seemingly out of nowhere by that i mean over the course of the weekend it was just building and now iām like succumbing to it iāve been sucked back into p.okem.on hell??? iām one of thoseĀ āveteransā and the last game i played was the remake of ruby since ruby/sapphire were MY CHILDHOOD and super nostalgia but just suddenly iām intrigued and curious and want to try theĀ ānewā games (which arenāt really new anymore woops).
that being said. iām just really consumed by happy po.kem.on feels lately (such good vibes from those games and the show tbh??) so iāve had little motivation to write while iām rolling around in fields of nostalgia flowers so just a heads-up.
iāve been replying to asks since those are short and fun, but my inspiration to actually reply to long threads is kinda absent at the moment. Sorry for any drop of activity for a bit!! <3

Poor Commander getting heckled by so many nosy people.
Ā Ā He says NOTHING, remaining shockingly notĀ bothered by the inquisitorās soft jest in the wake of everything else, but, Maker, does he STARE at the other. Long, in a suffering SILENCE working to construct in a single look words he otherwise wouldnāt SAY.
Ā Ā Help me.

#freethecurls I think that a glorious mane of curls would distract and intimidate enemies in battle, giving you a distinct advantage, much like going to war naked.
Ā Ā Ā āAndraste preserve meāĀ Ā Ā I highly DOUBT aā¦ Maker,Ā āglorious mane of curlsāĀ Ā Ā will INTIMIDATE. If anything, itāll provide more aĀ Ā Ā hindrance to MYSELF by getting in the wayā

Cullen, what do you find attractive in others?
Ā Ā For a moment, he would almost appear THOUGHTFUL, a silence not marked by that characteristic FLUSH, but a gentle furrowing of his brows as he glanced away. Then, matter-of-fact, if not TERSEā
Ā Ā Ā āNotĀ asking overtly INTRUSIVE questions.ā

Please tell me Tiny Cullen rides a noble armored mouse into battle. And Tiny Alistair rides a sparrow he named Gryphon. I MUST KNOW!
not a mouse, but he does have the best boy.
