Felassan enjoyers!

Is anyone out there:

Thirsting for the handsome Slow Arrow with the world's highest cheekbones 🤚

Wishing they could have romanced him 🤚

Wishing he was still alive 🤚

Wishing for more lore about him 🤚

Might I offer you this nice egg fic in these trying times?

THE BASIC PREMISE:

It is canon that people who are killed in the Fade become Tranquil in the real world. What if Solas didn’t kill Felassan after all at the end of The Masked Empire? 

What if Felassan was made Tranquil instead, de-Tranquilized thanks to Cassandra Pentaghast, and sent to recover his emotions and his magic with a cranky ex-Inquisitor in post-Trespasser times?

If you want to read about Felassan and a very tired Lavellan sitting in a mansion talking and smoking and eventually fucking falling in love, then please feel free to have a peek!

WARNING: this was written in 2020 pre-Veilguard so a bunch of the theories don't match up with 2024 canon. So please don't look too closely at those parts HAHA.

If Felassan had a nickel for every time he fell for his boss, he’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice.

(From my Dreadwolf AU where Felassan is alive and The Inquisitor is the protagonist saving the world again… ft. Merrill)

something something Felassan telling Solas they have to keep up the Dread Wolf act to give people a reason to believe someone is strong enough to fight for them and something something the Inquisition advisors telling Inky they need to believe they were sent by Andraste to give people hope. the Solavellan parallels continue to slay

too sick to clean this one have at it

i always bounced off the "she was a halla and he was a wolf 🥺" or "she's sooo mild and innocent and he's a hardened stoic morally grey immortal" version of solavellan, bc firstly that is generically heterosexual in a way that i find silly. and secondly the timeline is just. SO wild.

from lavellan's perspective they're like "hm this guy saved my life from the anchor! cool. a very knowledgeable and skilled mage. he's a bit annoying about the dalish but i do like our talks. we've been through some pretty scary life or death situations together. he seems kind of mysterious or depressed at times, i wonder what's going on there. but we have been flirting a bit... maybe i can go for 1 (one) kiss and see what happens 🤔"

this is very normal. this isn't notably "✨such a pure and gentle soul that has won the heart of the ancient bloody-handed trickster✨" behaviour, they're actually acting in a fairly regular way as someone who has a crush.

but by the point lavellan makes any move at all, from solas' perspective. he is already Dying Internally. he is Pining. when lavellan shoots their shot, he's already reached the level of "meeting you has changed my whole life and worldview, i don't know how to handle it," and presumably has restrained himself from saying anything to them only through pure stoicism and willpower. millennia of insurgency and political experience, all bent onto the task of Acting Normal Around Lavellan. he's halfway about to blurt out a love confession if they reciprocate the feelings at all.

his entire plan for however many eons was to NOT get overly attached to any single person and risk his trolley problem calculations and schemes for them, but within like 4-6 months of hanging out with this random, somewhat curious mortal, he's considering telling them everything and/or giving up the plan entirely. truly cringe fail.

Dread Wolf and servant of Mythal

the lore: Lavellan willingly becomes Mythal's servant and soon-to-be-priest to avenge her clan death slaughtered by Falon'din. As soon as she becomes a priest, Mythal will grant her power, but the cost is: it will bound Lavellan to Mythal's servitude even after death. Solas knew about this and he can't bear the thought of Lavellan losing her freedom. So he confronts Mythal. He offered to be her general and defeat Falon'din in her name in exchange of Lavellan's freedom.

might as well include my pre-veilguard version (because i have no idea solas had hair in the past XD)

Bonus:

THE DREADWOLF

[pikapeppa]

I don’t really like f/m but I’m so starved for Felassan content that I read your fics and I loved them so much! Please keep writing more of him, your writing style is so lovely! Thank you SO much for blessing us with your fics! <3

Ahhh thank you so much, I'm glad you took a chance and enjoyed the outcome! 🥰

As it happens, I just posted a new fic with our Slow Arrow!

In a nutshell: Felassan is alive, he and Tamaris Lavellan are happily partnered, and despite all the shit, they decide to give their Dread Ex-BFF/Ex-Boyfriend another chance at love.

If anyone decides to take a chance and try 'er out, I hope you'll enjoy!

-- love from your friendly neighbourhood Pika xoxo

Sive & Felassan sharing a moment of respite 🌼

[monderette]

In the days of Ancient Arlatan, Tisa and Felassan had been fairly close friends, even before she'd gotten close to Solas. It was nice to spend a spare moment with someone you could talk to in peace.

Though it had to be admitted that Tisa often frowned. Х)

By the way, she got the name Lavellan much, much later.

ok bear with me but au where felassan survives solas's murder attempt and shows up at skyhold months later and proceeds to spend inquisition psychologically tormenting him while posing as a fellow apostate

i cannot take credit for felassan's outfit, it was taken from a masked empire design by christina kraus

fenlin and felassan 11 years before inquisition before all the bad stuff happened <3

Everyone is fine and untraumatized and also in love 😭💞
