Flutiebear: Rambling My Way Through Thedas

top 5 luminerik moments in canon GO :)

YOU-

you come into MY house and expect me to choose between all of the precious moments I horde like treasure, to choose between all the random little snatches of time that my sweet dumpster boys, my trash children, even LOOKED at each other, I mean the nerve of some people. 

ANYWAY, on that note, I love this question and I would happily talk about it for hours. Here we go.

FIRST would have to be Gondolia, Act I - both a) when Erik dives in front of Jasper’s spell, the Luminary turns and is like ‘fuck that’s my boyfriend’ and my sweet son?? just tells him to run away? Like it’s possible for him to ditch his true love I just -

Then Serena’s metal ass just grabs the Luminary and nopes out. This girl kills me.

and b) the fucking Disney Princess rescue. We’re slipping through the canals, we sneaking around, we’re getting Erik back dammit because I love him the Luminary loves him. So perfectly angsty and beautiful. I live for that shit.

SECOND I dunno BETTER BE THE HORSEBACK SAVE I mean, again, this is some more Disney garbage right here - Luminary’s down, enemies are fast approaching, and best boy just swoops out of nowhere and scoops that kid up onto his horse like a knight in shining armor, beautiful, spectacular, amazing

THIRD has gotta be “I’ll take it from here” at the Crucible while forging the Sword of Light. That just gutted me. It’s just such a beautiful testament to their whole relationship and what they’ve been through so far, Erik keeps him going and now I’m crying

FOURTH Probably The Look ™ between these two when Erik thinks he’s going to have to kill Mia when she’s going all aggro after you defeat Gyldygga, and the Luminary stops him, and they just, the look? They just know? And then they go all battle couple to get Erik to Mia. We love a good Battle Couple.

FIVE of course I have to mention Leap of Faith. These two just escaped jail together, ran from a dragon, from more guards, they don’t even know each other’s names but they’re going to take a romantic high dive off a cliff to their deaths probably and they just yolo off that shit into the sunset I love it.

BONUS for like everytime Erik does his little reach out or shoulder grab & squeeze because I am weak and shipper trash and I live for every second that these two share a scene. 

I probably missed several because as it happens, it has now been a few months since I’ve played and I’ve spent a real long time in fanfic hell and it tends to blur together. But those were the ones that came to mind first. Thanks this was beautiful and now I’m dying of Luminerik feels. We were robbed, I tell you, robbed.
