Description

*Warning: Dragon Age 2 Spoilers below*






So I drew this picture in a fit of melancholy and then later colored it when I was not. Hence an initial, 'oh so sad!' picture with bright HAPPY TIMES colors. Gah. >_< There is a lesson to be learned here... do not sketch and color under contrasting emotional circumstances. The resulting image is... opposing and conflicted (at least to me).

So true to his word, Anders broke poor little Diplomatic!Mage!Hawke's heart. Although, it's strange. When The Incident happened, I didn't feel angry. Or outraged. Just... sad.

I couldn't be angry because everyone in the game including Varric (especially Varric) warned Hawke that it was a royally Bad Idea. It's like people telling you not to stick your hand into the fire cause you only gonna get burned. So, Hawke kinda knew at the back of her mind something bad was about to happen and couldn't really blame the fire when she got burned. Instead she felt sad.

Sad that Bioware let her get burned. Am I making any sense? They tell you from Day 1 not to poke your hand in the fire, but as the story progressed... well, I guess I was hoping that Bioware would let Hawke loot Fire Proof Oven Mittens of Tempered Justice after killing/cleansing/seducing some End Boss in an Anders centric side mission. Or something. But they didn't.

I guess I was used to missions where NPCs tell Hawke that there's something that can't be done yet Hawke Shepard achieves it anyway.

So in summary... just like DA Origins: I should have romanced the elf. Sigh.

Bah! Ignore me I'm rambling. Sorry. ^^;




TLDR; I hope this picture cheers up all the broken hearts!
