FuckYeahCarver! is SO CLOSE to 200 followers wow!! :D :D

with all the bad blood between them, how carver never quite had the face—or the beard—he needed to be the family’s champion, a chip on his shoulder even the heaviest of pauldrons couldn’t cover up, he’ll probably never know the way varric painted this picture: strength; bravery; the courage to stand against the horde. it was fantasy, sure, but all of that stuff comes from a place as real as anything. a grain of truth, a grand reveal, a glimpse inside a difficult heart—how all that jaw cut a pretty fine picture and the little hawke figured out how to soar at last. for some, it doesn’t come easy. they have to earn it. but it turns out, carver had that in him all along—and it takes all kinds of heroes to build just one family.
I don’t think I’ve shared these before, if I have, please forgive the spam.
There are these batches of quotes for each companion, INCLUDING Bethany and Carver (no Seb, it’s from the vanilla files). They sound vaguely like battle quotes of some kind, either initiation quotes, mid-battle quotes, or end-battle quotes that would trigger when you’re fighting ridiculous waves of mobs, one after the other.
And they’re rather… meta in a weird sort of way.
I’ve never heard any of these actually play in the game, but that’s not saying they aren’t there. I’ve dumped them in full behind a cut because it’s a bit long.
For those who liked In Te, Domine, Speravi, I will start posting a part two as prompted by three of you :) Hope you will enjoy! It will be mini chapters again ;)

This has been rattling around in my head for a long time now. When I get a moment where Carver is cooperative and will let me write him, I have to drop everything and do it, or he gets shirty with me.
Set during the first year in Kirkwall. Saoirse Hawke belongs to magesmagesmages. A little NSFW. Some sexual themes and a LOT of language.
Thanks @thewolf-inme for rivalmancing this with a malefipen.

He is desperate to not feel so damned alone, which is the only reason he’s listened to Gamlen in the first place.
Dragon Age stickers up for sale over here! Instructions and everything are in the post itself :D
I honestly would have loved to make more but time is a huge issue so I’m sorry I didn’t cover more characters! ;A; Keep a lookout though, once holidays roll around … heh!
