So Long and Thanks For All the Fish


I'm Melissa - Max to most as that keeps me separated from my best friend (reanimatrix) who also happens to be my roommate and also Melissa. I try to be thoughtful, intelligent, open-minded, and objective (and snarky but that's a given).

I'm into Dragon Age, Mass Effect, KotOR, SWtOR, and other such things.

If you like Fenders, check out my AO3 - same username.

Icon art by Domirine!!

i’m aware that not all fandom sees anders like this, and don’t take it too seriously. it’s just my opinion after seeing most of the fanart ;) and i don’t think that super-hot-body-anders isn’t unf, because he is. OvO
i just don’t think that mages get to work out that much ;P

I see Anders as skinny-ass as well under all those bulky robes, which makes for a lovely contrast with a (muscular) warrior Lady Hawke. Reversal of gender tropes and all that.  As for the buffness clearly seen with Champion ManMage Hawke…maybe he was a lumberjack back in Lothering. Or clearly Papa Hawke’s Ninja!Mage ways was passed down to him. Or even as a Mage, he still wants to one-up Carver, just because he can.  (I dunno, I’m grasping at straws here XD)
Yes! I love this :> totally how I see Anders too haha, he’s a scholar, a healer - a mage. My OTP is with a rogue F!Hawke, and I always see her as being stronger than him :P just because he puts his focus elsewhere.

But in Awakening I accepted his body the way it was presented, because he was such a playa and so vain that I figured he probably just worked out all the time ;-)

Actually, with all the walking/running he does, and, really have you tried to actually wield a staff as effortlessly as he does? He’s probably not buff, but he’s probably got more muscle than one may think.
