About anon hate
defira85:
Psst, fandom, come here.
I have something to tell you.
Now we all know that sending anon hate is really, really not cool, yes? We’ve all agreed not to do it, that it’s a terrible thing, that we would never, ever do it?
Here’s a thought:
Don’t fucking do it.
Or, if you are a dipshit and you feel the need to do it, don’t send it to someone who is PUBLICLY STRUGGLING WITH SEVERE...

Karlver?
For some reason (have not decided on pairings for His Yes), I started thinking about what a Karl/Carver pairing would be called. I am leaning towards Karlver. Which means that some day, I must write it, somehow. Not.. not in the Warden!Karl AU, though. Do not want all those daddy issues up in there in that way, no thank you. But if I let him live for it, oh their interactions, they would be so...

Before The Rite
This was it. The bastards had even gagged him, to make sure he would not bite his tongue off to escape in the only way left to him now. They needed him alive and willing to provide them with information, everything he knew about Anders and his whereabouts, the slowly growing rebellion, any and all plans.
They were going to make him Tranquil to make him talk.
He would retain all his memories, but...

Love and its soul hugs
This is, apparently, my thousandth post. I feel like it merits something special, some kind of celebration, like pictures of frolicking baby elephants or perhaps some fireworks (but not together, elephants hear very well, I do not think they would enjoy it). It is such a staggering number, even considering that there are plenty of reblogs and replies in there. I think you know me well enough by...

Chess [Karl/Niall, M]
This is for, and in honour, of hawkeward. You know how sometimes in irc, you talk with someone terrific and just get the urge to write them some chess themed porn? ..No? Well. That is just the kind of person I am, then!
While Karl thoroughly enjoyed teaching, what he valued the most about being an Enchanter was finally being allowed a room of his own. He had never had one before; as a young boy,...

Asking Karl sexy questions
Ask Karl has a portrait picture now! By a1879 and it is beautiful. One day it will have colour. One day I will figure out computer colouring.
Also for some reason a lot of the questions he receives are sex related. Not so many that the blog could be named “Ask Karl Sex Questions”, but still. (Anyone else feeling a sudden urge to make it so? No? Just me getting struck by thoughts like...

Adventures in editing
Editing chess porn. Trust me, it needed editing. Sometimes I find word documents, read them a bit and part of me suddenly wonders if I, perhaps, am a crazy person. Another part of me is like “if by crazy you mean crazy awesome, well then yes, clearly”. What I am saying is, some of the things I write at four a.m in the morning is the source of conflicted feelings when I read them on the...

No Light X: Thoughtless
flutiebear:
I’m also putting this one under a Read More, as it’s incredibly violent and yucky. Trigger Warning for violence.
Also, just to clarify, because it may seem that timelines are conflicting here—all this business is happening right at the start of Act 2. No major Act 2 plotlines have been initiated from Garrett’s angle. He’s, like, still running around talking to Aveline or whatever,...

Soul hugs for everyone!
I think tomorrow, I will either look at the word document I have open now, and think to myself “really? chess porn?” or “hmm, yes, night well spent”. It could go either way, really.
Karl/Niall chess porn mostly written, editing needed, me being confused about my choices in life. This is my night and this is my morning. Splendid night, let me tell you! Wonderful company who...

of that dicso-themed AU fic by cypheroftyr inspired by a sketch I made earlier inspired by a comment from missl0nelyhearts encouraging everyone’s need of fluff..
where was I ? ah yes. Rum.
this was harder to draw than I anticipated….
I think you might be the best that has ever happened to Fluffy Friday. This gives me all kinds of good, fluffy feelings!

A younger Karl that combination-nc had asked me to draw a while back. I was not really happy with it because it didn’t look like him and I couldn’t figure out why (using no ref was maybe a bad idea to begin with lol)
but she liked it anyways, so here!
I am so so glad that you finally decided to post this - because it does look like him, a younger and more carefree him, with that...

His Yes [Warden!Karl AU] Chapter I
The hallways of Kinloch Hold did no longer simply feel strangely empty, but were. The Circle Tower always seemed emptier with Anders missing, but this time he was not the only one gone. And hopefully, unlike Niall and so many others, he was at least not entirely gone from this world. As much as mages taught themselves not to form too close attachments, Karl could not help but feel a pang of...

Hi, tumblrers.

missl0nelyhearts:
i second that emotion. let’s have some sexy motown fluff today?
:o)
I googled motown and suddenly, affros and dresses I really wanted to capture in sketches. I am not sorry? I can’t finish this, but I can laugh at it. So can you.
My goodness this is glorious. MY SOUL NEEDED THIS!
When love is a promise
I need to make up my mind about the title. I cannot title it “Arcane Warrior Warden!Karl AU Adventures”, it needs to be all serious. The working title is, perhaps, too sappy (and will not make sense for a long while), but if I cannot decide on something else, it will have to keep it because I cannot not post it due to not being satisfied with the title. It is Karl Thekla week! It must...

hawkeward:
Oh my goodness I could not possibly resist.
Niall is a year or two older than Karl, but he’s got one of those faces that makes him look ten years younger. He’s also a magical prodigy, the youngest mage to be harrowed in decades and the youngest Senior Enchanter in centuries. He’s a genius with Spirit magic, and has done prolonged research on the Fade, to the tune of several...

Something for Karl week! I hope I'm not late...
diamondunicorn08:
A/N: Two ficlets from livejounal. The first is from an RP app, and the second a kink meme story. It’s funny how they work well together, though. Uh, also, prepare for all the feels, because there is no happy ending for Karl here.

I have a limit, and I can see it from here
I have no idea how I am able to function on only three hours of sleep. I have no idea how I could work like this. How was I able to perform all those tasks? I still have work to do, but not work-work. At this point, though, it is somewhat starting to feel like work-work. Because. If I have to explain one more completely logical thing one more time. If I have to explain the concept of actually...

Tricksters (Crossover BFF Adventure!)
This is for jabberart, who totally gets what a total badass the Trickster is (and is not judging me for being sad about killing it).
“There it is!” Vaan exclaimed as the creature jumped out at them, seemingly from nowhere. It was… beautiful, Karl noted, with its shimmering white and gleaming gold feathers.
It promptly headbutted Anders with such force that he flew several steps away to land in a...

J is for Justice
defira85:
Very creative title that one… but I hope it will be forgiven, for it made sense in the context of the story. I’ve always been fascinated in the idea of names holding power, and being so much more than just a title that we wear. A name tells us so much about a person, and comes with preset expectations and stereotypes. Imagine getting to choose your own name, already aware of the world...

Replies, grandparents getting old edition
Soul back rubs for everyone.
anonymouscatastrophe said: I’m going through the same thing with my grandfather right now, and it’s just so painful to experience. I’m so sorry it’s happening to you, too, especially because you have so much else on your mind right now.
I am so sorry you are going through this as well (I know that you have other things going on, as well, and I admire your strength...
defira85 asked: Justice frowned slightly. "What is it you want me to do?" he asked. Combo beamed happily at him. "Why, dancing of course! And then there shall be singing, and chocolate! Defira is already dancing, see?" Justice eyed the dance floor warily. "Perhaps it is not ideal to be dancing on a table? It might be safer if she were to move." Even as he spoke, there was a crash,...

Horrors that cannot be defeated
Not the best day and not the best night for me, but I hope that everyone will be able to sleep well.
My grandmother would not talk with me today, because she did not remember who I was. She thought that my mother and her had the same father, and she wondered when he would come to pick her up. Then she wondered where her husband was, and my mother had to tell her yet again that he died, that is...

Ahhh I love this so much! Come to me darling let me love you :3

jabberart replied to your post: Winter rain always brings me down
It’s a shame winter can’t just stay forever. There was a terrible lack of snow this year in Pennsylvania. Damned global climate change. Let’s go to the North Pole :D
I wish it would be six months, at the very least. I love snow! Which is why I kind of take every chance to write characters frolicking in it, like how Anders did snow...

Anders' Alphabet: G As In Garment
He does not loathe the standard robes simply because they are ugly. They are, of course, completely hideous and downright visually offensive, but ugly on its own is something he can deal with. He has to, or he would have gotten an aneurysm by now, considering how many times he has been sent to Irving’s office.
What irks him the most is how they all look the same, how they force them to look...

Winter rain always brings me down
This day did not bring me down (and yes, your good thoughts and wishes held me up, and I thank you!). Fears have been faced, projects worked on, pain fought back as well as I could. Things got done. I think, I did well, considering the circumstances.
Night are a different matter altogether. Especially rainy ones, rain when there should be snow, rain washing all the beauty away. I want to find...

Distractions (Crossover BFF Adventure!)
”Now, why are we really hunting this thing?” Karl asked Basch in the hopes of receiving a better answer than For the feathers! To his great relief, his hope was not in vain.
“People post marks for local menaces. Most likely, this creature has disrupted the peace in some way.” Karl nodded, satisfied with finally having a logical explanation.
One airship ride and conversation with the petitioner...

Facing the day, and making the most of it
I more or less passed out last night, and then slept almost twelve hours, making a brief appearance in the waking world only when someone handed me my morning pills. When I properly came to, I felt a slight panic at first, because I have so much to do and should not have slept this long, but considering how well-rested I feel, perhaps I will be more effective like this. I have a lot to face and...

Since a whole ton of people seem to think her writing ability should determine how she’s treated as a human being. I think she’s great at what she does and I support her and her work. I think Bioware would be much worse off without her talent and I look forward to seeing what she has in store in future games. -blondie

Karl/Anders - "Rice"

combination-nc replied to your post: OKAY! **rubs hands together**
Drunksmutting, awww yeah! Karl/Anders (such a surprise!) neglecting their storage room cleaning duty would be veery interesting. Gotta be careful though, it would be awkward to be caught.. uhm, slacking off.

When a goodnight is really a good morning
Sleeping habits are clearly very bad. Tomorrow will be a day of facing daylight horrors, and perhaps I have been putting off sleep so I will not have to wake up to them, but I hope that is not the case (there are times when I am not quite sure of why I do what I do, because there are so many possibilities to consider). I want to get stronger, to grow as a person, to face all kinds of fears and...

littleclaypot:
There’s only 1 review so far giving her Anders short story one star. ONE measly fucking star. (I bet it was Meredith.)
This cannot stand, Dragon Age fans. We have to do something. Do it to spite the trolls. Do it to show your support for her. Do it for Anders.
DONE. FOR JUSTICE. And Jennifer.
YES. DONE. I shall leave a review as well. Time to show her some love!

Karl and Niall, polite conversation turning deep

combination-nc replied to your post: Send Me Prompts!
Karl and Niall, polite conversation turning deep.
“Oh… sorry, but could you please pass me the pickles?” the young dark-haired man seated to Karl’s right asked, gesturing to the large tray in the middle of the table, on the other side of Karl.
“Of course,” Karl said, making a long arm to hook his fingers over the side of the...
