Two Year Anniversary Giveaway!

Roughly two years ago I entered the DA Tumblr community, it took time but your wonderful support gave me the courage to share my art and keep drawing. So here we are and how far I have come. So I would like to give some Presents!

First Prize: The amazing signed print above.  This is a drawing that I did of Solas, and it just so happened that Garth David-Lloyd came to a local convention so I was able to get him to sign it.

Second Prize: A drawing of your OC or any character you would like. If you would like a character outside of Dragon Age I am down with that too.  References will be required.

Third Prize: A Celtic Knot drawing tailored just for you!

Entering is easy! Simply be a follower (new followers are always welcome and I hope you stick around), and Like and Reblog this post. Every reblog counts as an entry but please don’t spam your followers, it all love here.

I would also Ike to give a huge thanks to @liderfin who provided the screenshots that were the reference for Solas and to @pikapeppa for helping me find her.

The winner will be randomly chosen on December 1st!

Thank you again for encouraging me to keep drawing and sharing!

Special call out to @pikapeppa in case you haven’t seen it!

Ahhh how didn’t I see this? Yaaaas I’m keeping my fingers crossed for this wonderful giveaway from this wonderful artist!!! ❤️

“While many people think fanfiction is about inserting sex into texts (like Tolkien’s) where it doesn’t belong, Brancher sees it differently: “I was desperate to read about sex that included great friendship; I was repurposing Tolkien’s text in order to do that. It wasn’t that friendship needed to be sexualized, it was that erotica needed to be … friendship-ized.” Many fanfiction writers write about sex in conjunction with beloved texts and characters not because they think those texts are incomplete, but because they’re looking for stories where sex is profound and meaningful. This is part of what makes fan fiction different from pornography: unlike pornography, fanfic features characters we already care deeply about, and who tend to already have long-standing and complex relationships with each other. It’s a genre of sexual subjectification: the very opposite of objectification. It’s benefits with friendship.”

Someone put it into words. I gotta sit down

This is fantastic and perfect. WELL SAID.

Ray Nadeem is the BEST: spoiler warning for Daredevil season 3

*takes a deep breath*

RAY NADEEM WAS A GOOD PERSON AND A COMPLETE AND UTTER CINNAMON ROLL WHO DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT HE GOT AND I CAN’T BELIEVE HIS WIFE WAS SO HARD ON HIM AND I AM SO FUCKING MAD RIGHT NOW LIKE HE WAS AMAZING AND WONDERFUL AND JUST TRYING HIS BEST™ AND IT ISN’T FAIR

*takes another deep breath*

Seriously though this was a POC character written right. His cultural background was openly shown without it being a central or defining trait of who he was. He was a great character and THE ONLY THING I REGRET IS THAT HE’S GONE NOW AND FUCK EVERYTHING I QUIT

*takes a final deep breath*

Thank you all for listening, I apologize for the outburst, and I will now go and resume pretending to be a normal person who doesn’t get overly invested in fictional characters kbai~
