Just a reminder that some artists still sell a digital version of their albums so you only need to pay once and can still support them, also in some countries downloading things "not through official means" is not piracy as long as you keep the copy only to yourself.

i mean. i grew up thinking this sort of thing goes without saying. That it's simple COMMON SENSE. but as an adult? based on a lot of what i see coming from modern men? that sense ISN'T common at all.

you need to have that attitude and readiness REGARDLESS of how capable a woman your wife is, and help out all the way until your child(ren) are independent. Your wife and hypothetical children deserve at least that much. If you aren't willing to be that kind of partner, DON'T HAVE KIDS.

why mpreg fanfic? well first of all i don't bother with het media so i can't speak for the quality or volume of het pregnancy romances, but MOST OF ALL, bc the pregnant male partner is usually also at least fairly capable in their canon media and YES, the message is, their partners do it REGARDLESS

Knowing how much women GO THROUGH to bring a child into this world and raise it (and yes i hear things firsthand from women in my life, not videos on the internet) the LEAST that impregnating men can do to help share that weight is to have that initiative, empathy/understanding, and ACTION

Also owl here's the meme I made with it 😅😅

I would really really love to be a fly on the wall when he's with the Chargers but on one of those long jobs separate from the Inquisitor and he's pining and every single one of them is teasing him about it

I get you! (I love the wedding joke option too, just that "I love you" always wins out for how tender it becomes) I think that the "kadan" banter in Trespasser proves that everyone including Cole can't resist teasing him about it too

But yeah you're exactly right, it makes sense he would always be taken aback initially because sap or not, he's still been a Qunari for 99% of his life if/when your Inquisitor makes that joke during pillow talk, and he's never had to give it thought because it just was never an option for him

We all know he's a true big sap at heart though, he's not really fooling anyone especially by the time Trespasser rolls around 😂

"I WANT TO TALK ABOUT MY FEELINGS DORIAN" shdjdjd you don't get more obvious than that!

He pretty much literally explains that that's what the title of "kadan" means to him and it's a promise he renews every day. (Though he probably took until Inky's question to realise Inky needs more than the necklace to arrive at the same point, which is why he's cool with whatever Inky wants to do)

The way I understood what he says in Trespasser: What he means is that he doesn't think it's needed because as far as HE'S concerned, based on the culture he grew up in, he's already the equivalent of married and committed to Inky the moment Inky gave him the necklace and he accepted it
