Hey so ao3 bots are getting Really nasty. I just got this comment on a gift I wrote for a friend in my da fic server. I suspect that as word spreads about bot comments, the people behind the bots get more desperate. Ignore them. They don't know shit. Report, delete, and keep writing.

"You should know: all the people who ever tried to kill me are dead." 58 weeks. 47,750 stitches. One charmingly deadly assassin. @bioware.bsky.social #dragonage #dragonagetheveilguard #dragonageveilguard #DAVe #crossstitch #crafts #lucanis #lucanisdellamorte
A detailed cross stitch of Lucanis Dellamorte's character card from Dragon Age the Veilguard. His face is in the upper middle of the piece, with purple light misting out of his eyes. He holds two daggers up towards the top left corner. Swirls of purple and pink circles decorate the background behind and above him, while the lower half is much darker colors.

Happy 🍑mas from me and my best girl Nova de Riva! (Art comm from @littleplasticrat.bsky.social who did incredible work as always 🥰) #rookderiva #dragonagetheveilguard #datv
Art of an elven Dragon Age Rook lying on her stomach with one leg kicked up and toes pointed. An oversized red ribbon is wrapped around her thigh and tied in a bow around her waist. She's licking a candy cane and looking at the viewer with a raised eyebrow. Gold and purple ornaments hang from the upper right-hand corner and gold text that reads "Merry Christmas" is at the lower left-hand corner.
