Knight-Captain Cullen #FABULOUS GIF

I would've added this GIF to my last post, but, since I made it myself, I felt it deserved its very own post. It's basically Cullen's face on the body of a girl in a dress, and he is #FABULOUS. He is so sassy! *sassy finger snap* Werk it, werk it!

Reaction GIFs

My love of GIFs inspired me to create a post that's all about GIFs. Here are a few* no-context reaction GIFs I've used during conversations on the OKCCDT. I'll let you guess at how and why I used them. (Credit and kudos goes to whomever made these GIFs.)


*Did I say a few GIFs? I meant a lot.

Dragon Age: Inquisition Fan Trailer

Hey, everyone! To pass the time while a huge snow storm blew through my town, I messed around with iMovie and created a fan trailer for DA:I. It's the first fan trailer I've ever attempted to make, so keep that in mind before you laugh at how bad it is! (Not that I would really blame you for laughing, it is pretty bad.)

The OKCCDT... a Safe Haven for Cullen Fangirls.

Sometimes, you just want to go where everybody knows your name.

http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/306/index/8201931/1

The OKCCDT is my favorite place to visit when I want to talk to other fangirls about Cullen. What is the OKCCDT, you ask? The Official Knight-Captain Cullen Discussion Thread. It's a thread on the BSN (Bioware Social Network) that was created by fans so we could get together and chat. If you want, you're free to join us - provided that you bought a Bioware game and have an Origin account. All you have to do is visit http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/index and set up your account. Simple as that.

We're all really friendly and welcoming, so there's nothing to fear. (Just don't wander into the Inquisition forums if you can help it. It's full of trolls, homophobes, and chauvinists. I'm giving you a fair warning.) On the OKCCDT, we are open to questions about Cullen, and we love to engage in friendly debates. If you plan on trolling: DON'T. Moderators are prepared to ban people, if necessary.

Hope you see you there soon! And be sure to shoot me a friend request once you join.

I love this. I absolutely love this. I don't want to spoil anything for you, but I will say a few things about this fic.

First off, it's wonderfully written. There wasn't many spelling errors or grammar mistakes, which is usually a good indicator that the author truly loves writing. I mean, who else would take the time to look over their work to make sure it's perfect for their readers? If they didn't love their work, they wouldn't care how well it turned out. So kudos to Defira for writing so brilliantly.

Secondly, I love Cullen. Any fanfic about Cullen gets automatic bonus points from me. What can I say, I'm a Cullen fangirl! (Guilty as charged.)

Lastly, I enjoy reading fluff. Well, no, fluff isn't the right word to describe this. There is a plot, but it's not the most relevant part of the story. A more accurate term would be a "romantic and steamy twist on the story of DAII... with added Cullen."

So, if what little you can glean from above catches your eye, be sure to give this fanfic a look! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Introduction

I suppose I should introduce myself.

Who am I, you may wonder? Well, I am but a simple fangirl - one single person amongst the millions of others that can be found on the internet. But I am also much more than that.

My name is Alicia. I live in a small town in the ass end of Indiana, full to the brim with corn and patriotism. Ugh. I go about my daily life striving to do well in school, failing miserably, and then turning to Bioware games to make myself feel better.

Since you're still here, I'll try to answer one question you may have about me.


Who do you fangirl over?

Well, dear reader, I fangirl over many people. So many, in fact, that I find it hard to pinpoint just a few. But, for your sake, I will try to pick the ones that are most likely to make me squee like a little schoolgirl when the icecream truck drives by.


Cullen

Knight-Captain Cullen is a blushing, bashful member of the Templar Order. He is in both Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II.


Alistair

My dear King Alistair is a former-Templar-turned-Grey-Warden who can be found in the video game Dragon Age: Origins.

Anders

Anders is that sexy, angsty rebel mage who leads the Mage Underground in Dragon Age II.

Kaidan

Kaidan is the powerful L2 biotic with the perfect hair and the perfect... ass-ets. He can be found in all 3 Mass Effect games, but he is only a companion in ME1 and ME3.



While it may not be a perfect match, the song in the following video is pretty darn close to who I am. Replace the books with DA and ME books and comics, replace the celebrities with the aforementioned men, and replace the songs with video game sound tracks and it's even closer. Enjoy! WARNING: extreme fangirling is contained within this song
