squishyeeyore asked: Sir Anders: If Sir Archer and Aveline had a mud wrestling match, who do you think would win?

Anders: *snickers* The thought is absolutely fantastic as I just can’t see it happening. While Archer has no problem battling women who pose a threat, I can’t see him ever setting out to wrestle or fight a woman like Aveline. 

Don’t misinterpret this as him being a misogynist or an asshole; he just simply won’t enter such a match when he knows he’ll lose. Aveline is a force to be reckoned with, and she can do things with that shield that Archer could never dream of being capable of. But weapons aside, she may not be quite as physically strong as he is, but she’s cunning and would have him pinned with his head under the mud in a matter of seconds.

Archer doesn’t handle losing well in any aspect, so he wouldn’t put himself into that situation. *smirks* Would be hilarious to see though.

Anonymous asked: Archer, how much erotic fiction do you read?

Archer: Honestly not a lot. I don’t have all that much down-time where I’m just able to sit around and read, and it’s not something I make a priority either. Right now, I’ve been reading mostly children’s books to my little dragon egg because he’s not really old enough to appreciate erotic fiction.

But I have read a thing or two in my day, and I certainly have a bunch in my library considering who some of my friends are. They’re quite talented, but they don’t necessarily write exactly what I’d pick out to read in this department. 

Anonymous asked: Anders, tell us your favorite time topping Archer

Anders: Hm…it’s hard to pick just one time. I much prefer bottoming, but it feels good to change it up every once and a while. He’d have you believe it only happens once in a blue moon, but it probably happens 1 in 10 times now. I definitely enjoyed the first time we did it because it was so new. But last night…that was probably the best ever.

Archer: *grumbles and whines, holds his head in his hands* Don’t you dare, mage.

Anders: Take the bloody potion already, Archer. I’ll make you feel better.

Archer: No I deserve this as a reminder to never fucking drink that much again.

Anders: Yes you do deserve that reminder. You’re a bloody idiot is what you are. *turns away from him* This guy decided to take on Fenris in a drinking match. Challenge the alcoholic to such a thing? Ridiculous. So, after he got kicked out of the Hanged Man for such inappropriate behavior, I managed to get him home - only by the grace of the Maker - and I went to put him to bed.

Archer: The fuck is that supposed to mean? You used to take me home all the time like that.

Anders: Right well that’s before you started wearing armor as heavy as a horse and before you packed on a few pounds.

Archer: Hey!

Anders: Oh hush, I’m only joking. Anyway I get him back home, armor off, and into bed he goes. I go to take off my robes and he’s on me instantly. But not in the normal aggressive toppy way that he normally is. He grabbed onto me fell to he knees and begged me to fuck him.

Archer: I hate you.

Anders: *smirks* Well that’s not what you said last night. Anyway, I was naturally in a bit of shock because he’s never, ever done such a thing. But, as the sub in this relationship, who am I to deny him? So I bent him over the table and was rather rough with him. I was nervous about it because he doesn’t normally like that, but he insisted.

Archer: And now my ass is killing me!

Anders: Well the potion should help with that too, but you’re too damn stubborn to take that.

Archer: Never againnnn.

Anders: Never again to what - the ridiculous amounts of alcohol or me making you my bitch?

Archer: *groans* Both.

Anonymous asked: Dying to know...did you Lord Cyril make you dry heave when you got the key from him and was Anders angry that you flirted with him? In fact I bet you got a severe punishing from Anders after all that flirting you did. ;)

Archer: Oh Lord Cyril…no, I was able to contain myself. It really takes a lot for me to get sick in that sort of way. I just viewed it as another mission - something that had to be done to get what I needed to get. He’s completely unappealing as a human being, but he wasn’t hideous, so that probably helped a bit as well.

As for the next part of your question, let me just take a personal moment.

*buckles over and laughs histerically* Anders…Anders punishing me. *slaps his knee, laughs harder* Oh Maker. The thought of that! *wipes a tear from his eye, tries desperately to compose himself* Oh fuck that’s hilarious.

Anders: Ahem.

Archer: *squeals* Oh, oh hey, Darling. How are you?

Anders: I could easily punish you if I wanted to.

Archer: *raises an eyebrow* Oh really? This coming from my ultimate sub. The man who begs me to put him in his place on a nightly basis. The guy who once struggled to tie himself up because I was taking too long and proceeded to-

Anders: *covers Archer’s mouth* I could punish you in other ways. Withhold sex or-

Archer: *laughs and attempts to mumble “yeah right”*

Anders: -or forbid you from playing with Guard Captain Mittens for a period of time.

Archer: *removes Anders’ hand* Now that’s just mean.

Anders: *smiles*

Archer: Fine. You are capable of punishing me. But you never do, and you wouldn’t have for the whole Lord Cyril thing because you know that means nothing and that you’re the one I want to steal all the keys from.

Anders: *chuckles* Yes, something like that.

squishyeeyore asked: Sir Archer, how tall are you? (yeah, I know, boring question, but I was curious XD)

Archer: About 188 cm or 6’2” or just tall enough to use an elf as an elbow rest.

(OOC: Also no questions are boring! I love them :D)

secretbraintwin asked: Archer, if the whole baby dragon thing doesn't work out, how would you feel about a baby ocelot?

Archer: *scoffs* “Doesn’t work out”. What’s that even supposed to mean?

Anders: Well, perhaps if the egg doesn’t hatch or if the dragon becomes too much to handle.

Archer: Anders, I am shocked and deeply hurt! The very thought that I can’t care for the egg enough to get him to hatch! Utterly preposterous. I have dedicated myself to him day and night an-

Anders: *mutters under his breath* No kidding…

Archer: *frowns* And there is no possible way I’m going to fail in this endeavor. Also, how will I not be able to handle him? I am his father. I will raise him to love and respect me, Anders. I know you have daddy issues-

Anders: Archer!

Archer: *smirks* But don’t blame me for that. I will care for him no matter what. I am fully capable. As if you’ve completely forgotten that I’ve raised two strapping lads into adulthood already…

Anders: Raising a Mabari and a cat seems a bit easier than raising a gigantic flying lizard.

Archer: Have a little faith, Darling. I know what I’m doing. Now what’s all this about an ocelot? One of those small tropical cats with spots?

Anders: *wide-eyed* Spotted cat? Where can we get one?

Archer: Well they’re wild; not something you can just get anywhere like a kitten off the street.

Anders: And a dragon isn’t wild?

Archer: Well…

Anders: If this dragon thing doesn’t pan out, I think we should find an ocelot. We could really use another feline around the house.

Archer: Fine. But I’m only agreeing because there’s no way I’m going to fail with this dragon.

Anders: *smiles* We shall see.

secretbraintwin asked: Archer, who did you take into the Fade with you for Keeper Marethari's ritual? How did you react to what happened there?

Archer: I took my normal crew with me - Anders, Isabela, and Fenris. Anders went for obvious reasons; he’s a mage and has experience in the Fade that he is capable of remembering far more than I, a non-mage, can, and also because he’s my boyfriend and I make him come along with me whenever I can. And I take the other two with me for the most part because they’re available, and, quite frankly, I enjoy the snarkiness that comes from this entire group just trying to work together. But I digress.

I really shouldn’t be surprised by anything any more, but somehow I always am. I wasn’t expecting my friends to succumb to Desire Demons, and, worst of all, I wasn’t sure that I would get them back when they woke up. I was utterly terrified, and I may have given them all hugs that lasted far too long after that. As far as Feynriel goes, I just couldn’t kill him. From what I was told, he went on to train in Tevinter, and I hope he’s found some peace there.

I can definitely say that I rather like my inability to remember most of my nightly trips into the Fade. But this certainly gave me a new-found respect for what mages encounter and recall so vividly all the time. I’m glad Anders has Justice take over for him.

secretbraintwin asked: Archer, how well do you get along with Justice?

Archer: Well, honestly I don’t have much interaction with him. It was made fairly clear to me early on that, despite being connected to Anders, he wasn’t in the relationship with us. I felt like, because of that, I shouldn’t really ever try to talk to him or anything like that.

From what Anders has said, he doesn’t mine that we have a relationship, at least not after he’s seen what benefit it has brought Anders. I feel like there was worry about Anders losing focus, but I think I help him stay grounded a bit.

Anyway, though I don’t really ever interact with him unless he pushes through, I have, on occasion, tried to talk to him while Anders was asleep. Of course I get no response back, but I guess I just feel like I should. I can’t imagine what it feels like to be where he is. I know he’s a spirit and not a human, but I think it might be rather frustrating. I love him…it’s strange, really. I love him because he’s part of Anders, and I love Anders so much. He always talks about how he was different before Justice and how I would have liked the old him better. But I don’t know that I would. I love this Anders, and he just happens to play host to a spirit of justice.

Anonymous asked: How do you make Anders feel wanted?

Archer: I don’t know. I don’t really give it too much thought…I just do it. I try to make everyone in my life know that they’re important to me by spending time with them and investing in them. That happens after you’ve lost the people who matter most in your life.

With Anders specifically, I certainly spend every moment I can with him. We’re both busy men - we fight together, he’s got his clinic and the mage underground - so there isn’t all that much time for it. But I try to do little things to show him that I love him and to let him know that he’s the only person I want to be with. I’ll tell him how I feel about him, I’ll show him physically, and, from time to time I’ll buy him things, mostly for his clinic because that’s what he really needs.

I’m not so sure other than that. I definitely try to make him know how much I want him, and I hope he does know it. I don’t have anything if I don’t have him. 

Anonymous asked: Do either of you like having your hair played with, like while you're relaxing together and stuff? How about hair-pulling during sex?

Archer: I really don’t like my hair messed with. I’m incredibly particular about it, and I don’t want it to get out of line.

Anders: I still have no idea how it manages to stay in place after a tough battle. It’s like your entire body is covered in blood and cuts and sweat, but your hair remains magnificent. 

Archer: It’s a gift, Darling. Anyway, I love playing with his hair though. Whenever we get a little down time, he’ll let it down and lean against me, and I’ll play with it. And of course it gets pulled during sex. That little tied back bit is just begging for it.

Anders: *smirks* I wouldn’t have it any other way.
