OC Meme - Vincent Laidir

Tagged by the always lovely @lindira! Thank you so much 💖 Make sure you all go and check out her answers for her amazing Pa'ani too, you can find them here!

General

Name: Vincent Laidir.

Alias: Rook.

Gender: Male (he/him pronouns).

Age: 44 at the beginning of Veilguard.

Place of Birth: a Dalish encampment just outside of the city of Llomerryn, Rivain.

Spoken Languages: Trade, Rivaini, Elvhen, Tevene.

Sexual Orientation: Homosexual.

Favourites

Colour: Gold and royal blue.

Entertainment: Listening to performing bards - both song and music. Learns to play Wicked Grace through Varric and Harding, but also enjoys other group games with friends. Caring for animals - especially Assan, who he is always sneaking truffles to.

Pastime: Researching into any potentially interesting artifacts he's found and reading / decoding or translating anything he's found during his adventures. While he knows a few languages himself, Vincent knows a few actual linguists from his work within the Lords who he trusts. He collects gold trinkets that aren't of any cultural value, especially any jewerly.

Food: Couscous Salad (but only when he's in Rivain. Vincent complains that nowhere else knows what to properly add to it otherwise), bananas, chocolate, pumpkin bread, Tevinter honey and nut pastries.

Drink: Rivaini tea, hot chocolate (he discovers he likes it when Lucanis takes him to try coffee, but Vincent is too interested in the hot chocolate instead), dark Lloymerym rum.

Books: Anything that he finds on his adventures or historical resources that help around the topics he researches into. Adventure stories (loved them when he was a young boy and it's what inspired him to want a life like that for himself. He still enjoys them when he's older, but also likes to comment on them having had his own number of adventures himself). He grows to enjoy poetry after being with Emmrich long enough, mostly because Emmrich reads a lot of it to him.

Have they ...?

Passed University: Vincent never had any real schooling, other than what he learnt in his clan. He's not a scholar in that sense.

Had sex: Yup.

Had sex in public: Yes, although that's partly due to his life of travelling. He tries to be as private as he can in such instances but ... well there are times where privacy hasn't been easy.

Gotten tattoos: His vallaslin is for Dirthamen, who was the keeper of secrets and master of ravens. The bird like marks - along with Vincent's skill for cracking puzzles - are what inspire Varric to nickname him Rook. He also has a large tattoo of a snake curled around a collection of diamond-like shapes on his left arm, which he had done after he joined the Lords of Fortune. It’s meant as a rememberance of his past slavery, and how he was able to come away from it able to rebuild a new, better life for himself.

Gotten piercings: No.

Gotten scars: Yes. He has some faint whip scars on his back from his years spent as a galley slave, and a few smaller scars from his days adventuring. I imagine after the events of Veilguard he has one around the lower part of his chest from where Ghilan’nain's tentacles wrapped around him before he was trapped in the Fade Prison. Because of the weeks in there and the fact he was thrown quickly into battle again on his return - that and his fight with Elgar'nan injured him further - it wasn't able to heal properly.

Had a broken heart: No. His relationships have never been serious enough in the past.

Been in love: Yes, he falls pretty hard for Emmrich.

Are they ...?

A cuddler: Very much so! Vincent loves a good cuddle.

Scared easily: Not really, no. He faces danger on a daily basis, so he knows the risks, and he has his own beliefs on what death means. The only time he has ever really been frightened was when he was trapped in the Fade, because for a good while there he didn't think he'd find a way out.

Jealous easily: No. I don't think Vincent even knows how to be jealous.

Trustworthy: Absolutely! He values trust highly, and Vincent can be trusted with anything.

Family

Siblings: Vincent is an only child, although you wouldn't guess it. He grew up amongst a number of other Dalish children, and they all feel as close as family to each other. Although he hasn't gone back home in a long while, they still exchange letters from time to time.

Parents: They sadly passed away; his father during the years he was a slave, and his mother a year or two after he found freedom once more.

Children: He pretty much adopts Manfred once him and Emmrich become more secure in their relationship. Manfred loves it, he adores Vincent, especially since Vincent is always ready to teach him new games to play.

Pets: Once things are settled after Veilguard, Vincent turns up back at the place he shares with Emmrich after one of his adventures with a cat he's found. He more or less plonks it in Emmrich's lap and is just like 'say hi to our second child'. Emmrich happily allows it, amused not for the first time at Vincent's love for cats.

I'm not sure who out of my followers wants a tag, but I'll throw one out to @owlpockets, @rannadylin, @flyppa and @ohlawsons. If anyone else wants to have a go though please do, and feel free to tag me as I love reading about other people's OC's!

Since the Canada griffin was proudly mentioned recently I figure it can’t hurt to ask if you do happen to have plans to design Canada griffin goslings at some point in the future? (muse permitting)

I DO NOW.

I present to you

I’m new, I just read your fic about neglect reader. I haven’t read through your blog yet but I am so excited after reading this fic. I am an emotional wreck right now and my curiosity is eating me alive with this question “Does reader know about Jason? Will they ever met? Ever have a platonic relationship together? Will Jason be more of a brother to reader?”

I’m sorry I speed through the fic and tears are in my eyes I couldn’t think straight BUT I notice that Jason is hardly there so I’m curious. Please this is such a brain rot, it’s way past midnight after I read this cause I keep stopping to cry.

major (?) spoilers below.

reblogs and interactions are encouraged and appreciated.

hello anon !! im so happy ppl are getting more exposed to the content i have written so far. anyways, i can't believe i also got others to cry bec i did too when i was writing 😭

anyways, to answer ur question: yes! the reader will meet jason and he would actually be the first sibling you would meet after you have left the manor. the way he would turn yandere for you is a different approach to how the others would be because in the prequel, it has been stated that you had your fair share of encounters with him.

"will they ever have a platonic relationship with him/see him as a brother?" maybe, maybe not. because your meeting with him would all be a blur to you, and jason's obsession would stem from the trauma he had experienced, causing him to be more protective of you.

you're not in your best mindset and you're vulnerable walking through the streets of gotham and all alone? oh god, only a dumbass would do that— but once the red hood recognizes your face and the way you carry yourself so pitiably, he immediately tries to take you in his arms just as he should.

but the moment you push him away? tell him to fuck off despite your drunken state? the moment you cry and tell him you could deal with everything yourself without his help or anybody else's? you just remind him of himself and that triggers his first spiral into yandere-ism.

it's the way you share trauma, the way you both feel immense anger. he should've noticed sooner because you two would've been as close as peas in a pod. and yet he failed you by being a hypocrite. you were literally taken into the manor right after his death and discarded like you were mere trash. he should've taken you away when he had the opportunity to but he was too caught up in his feat of revenge.

yet the worst part was that he had taken notice of tim before he did you, and jason had momentarily hated you too because he thought bruce had replaced him. if he had looked through that veil of contempt that he had for you, and saw just how neglected and in need of attention you are, then he would've taken you under his wing.

but he didn't, and he had done the same thing to you as most did.

so take it as you will when i say you're more or less going to be closer (albeit unwillingly) to jason than anybody else because unlike his other siblings who are bound by their vigilante duties, your big brother jason wouldn't mind shooting any creeps who think they could touch his precious angel.

and he gets it, too, angel— you hate him, you hate them all and that's valid. but you can't just walk out in the streets alone and expect to be home in one piece; so leave it to him to scout your apartment alright? leave it to your big brother jason to intimidate the goons who try to stalk you when you're not looking. even if you don't want him near you, you'll always find warm food by your table and a note reminding you to take care of yourself more often.

it hurts when you rip the paper to shreds but it breaks his heart even more if you refuse to touch the meal he would leave for you, because that probably means you saw him as danger more than anything else. and he doesn't know it, but you're already planning to make a run for it now that you're under red hood's radar.

it's obvious that you have no experience when it comes to living by yourself, so please don't fucking push him away and let him protect you from any harm. your self destructive habits only causes him to become more protective of you and it only lets him stalk you more often to ensure nobody would touch his precious angel.

just like dick, you'll be treated more like a child than that of a young adult, but at least jason has the concept of personal space compared to your eldest brother. but still, jason wishes to hold you in his arms.

heaven forbid if the joker ever got his crummy fingers on you. jason would go berserk.

little does he know, little does your family know just how much they had lost the opportunity to keep you in wraps inside the manor.

they should've never let you out in the first place.

For the Tarot challenge: The High Priestess!

Thank you for once more indulging me to talk about my OC's 😂

The High Priestess: How did Rook respond to their developing feelings? Did they embrace the new feelings or hide from them?

Vincent isn't one to hide who he is and how he feels. He's been through too much in his life for that, plus he knows who he is and is comfortable about that -- add to that the world's close to potentially ending by the time he realises he has actual feelings for Emmrich, he sort of enters the state of 'well, guess I stumbled into something bigger than I saw potentially happening'.

He's rather surprised by how deep his feelings run, once he realises and faces them. Vincent has had romantic entaglements before, but he's never really been in love before. Throughout his life his strongest connections have been through friendships he's built and, later, the bonds he builds with those in the Lords of Fortune. Love is new, and like most things in his life, Vincent decides he likes the feel of it and jumps headfirst into accepting his own feelings.

Vincent flirts with everyone - he's too charming for his own good, and even Varric would joke about it (considering it's gotten them out of a few fights in their time searching for Solas). But a while after having Emmrich as a part of their team Vincent drops the flirting with anyone else and it's just Emmrich that gets it. I think once he realises that for himself Vincent is very much 'oh, that's new'.

But once he actually realises his feelings are deeper? That there might be something more there? I think that's around the time when Emmrich also grows confident enough to start to reciprocate with his own flirting back, and Vincent is not prepared for how much he likes knowing that Emmrich seems to feel something for him too.

Chat, how many benefits of the doubt do I give someone that keeps kind of ghosting me

[yearningsaphic]

I think it would really advance society if we admitted that mothers can be just as toxic and abusive if not more than dads and stopped dismissing it as “they gave birth to you”

What's the sort of JouKai fanart you are craving but have never been able to find?

Hmmmm.... 🤔

I'm not sure I can think of any off the top of my head. In general, I think the kaijou and joukai fanartists have kept me pretty well fed, especially after you include the stuff posted on pixiv.

Wait! I thought of one! Haha. Making out or smutty art where Jou has a tongue piercing! 👀👀👀
