I meant to have this for yesterday wrt Kandersgiving but OH WELL

Anyway, I’ve been kicking around an AU where Anders is sent to the Kirkwall Circle and Karl becomes a Grey Warden. And in this AU, Karl is in Kirkwall legitimately (Hey, Vigil’s Keep is full of Templars, you think I can get reassigned? Sure, I’d love to go to the Free Marches with Stroud!) and requisitions a healer from the Gallows to help refugees and for no other reasons at all, don’t be ridiculous. 

Hawke finds the Warden, which means he finds the Healer, and he is Delighted. When Anders’s templar minder is, for example, Thrask, who is willing to look the other way, Hawke will drag both of them to the Hanged Man. It’s hard to not like Hawke, and he makes Anders laugh, so Karl’s more-or-less fine with it (and is not at all jealous when Anders and Hawke flirt at each other terribly.)

Also, Justice is still Kristoff (for now – this doodle is act I). He came to the Marches with Karl because again, Templars were getting touchy about the possessed corpse. 

No-Shame November and my awesome note-taking skills, selfindulgence.jpg

More of the Gay Apostate Married verse, ft Anders’s incredibly weird sleeping positions and also constitutional inability to kick the birds out of the bed. 

In the immortal words of some cartoon lions:

“Your son is awake.”

“Before sunrise, he’s your son.”

Anyway, Anders Week 2016, Day 2: who do you ship Anders with and the answer is KARL THEKLA. Fandom secret: I’ll bicycle Anders around with basically anyone, but Kanders is the closest thing I have to an OTP for DA2. unless we’re counting ot3s because I am 100% fenhanders garbage as well

More bits of Gay Apostate Married AU, with Anders and Karl and their baby Housegriffon. 

Karl was never made Tranquil and he and Anders got gay apostate married and ran away to the Anderfels to raise griffons in the mountains and shut up everything is FINE

this is easily one of the top five most self-indulgent things I have ever drawn
