I also ran #MontilyetMonday for a year, all posts searchable via the above tag.
In it, I posted (with attribution) older fanart, questions, my commentary, virtual photography and edits, interviews, clips, and other materials to provide a positive, inclusive way of celebrating Josephine Montilyet.💛
I just wanna say Happy Birthday to my dear friend, @antivacity.bsky.social! They've been a real pal to this fandom and to me! 🥰

It might not be a scheduled feature this year… but why not have today as a #MontilyetMonday all the same? 😊
I (we?) can certainly use it! And so, here is a snippet from a recent entertaining interview featuring Allegra Clark.

Oh, and if it seems your Monday felt ever so slightly less proper, perhaps a perusal of the #MontilyetMonday tag will serve your needs.
Montilyet Monday may have ended as a scheduled feature last week, but the spirit remains! 😊

“Do you ever wonder what lies at the edges of the map, past the seas?”
The clever, bold, and beautiful Josephine Montilyet.

I am so glad you like it! Thank you for trusting me with your VP and thank you for creating and hosting #MontilyetMonday !

Something a wee bit different from me today. 😉

Oh! I should mention:
#MontilyetMonday is tagged for a reason. Feel free to browse all past entries this way.
And a special thanks you to @jens-nb.bsky.social and @lizzysizzy.bsky.social for covering for me on a couple weeks I was unavailable. 😊
I want to give a shout out to @antivacity.bsky.social for being a great advocate for Dragon Age discussion, reflection, art, and memes. Today marks 1 year of AC’s #MontilyetMonday and I’ll be posting two portraits in honor of our beloved Josephine Montilyet, based on VP from @antivacity.bsky.social
Gilded frame, with "Montilyet Monday" printed on the top, and within are found an assortment of previous Montilyet Monday posts, including highlighted fanart, Virtual Photography, and stills from videos.
I can say, with all my heart, that it has been an immense pleasure to share this silly, good-natured, celebration of Josephine Montilyet.
My goal all along was to encourage an inclusive, open fandom, and I think I succeeded thanks to all of you. ❤️

Josephine Montilyet looks out over the gondolas and water in Val Royeaux.
Tomorrow marks a full year of #MontilyetMonday, and the sun setting on it as a weekly, scheduled feature.
I’m not retiring this account or anything dramatic such as that (I love yapping with my friends❤️), and I’ll definitely continue to post my share of Josie, but I consider it a job well done. 😊
How marvelous?!
My sincere gratitude to you all. Everything is now in place to conclude our year of #MontilyetMonday on a high note next week. 😊
We can all be a Josephine to those around us.❤️ That’s the central lesson of this small blorbo celebration.

Silhouette of Josephine Montilyet before a blurred map of Antiva. Text reads “When I think of Josie… what words come to mind?”
Josie is very nearly back home to the Estate, this penultimate #MontilyetMonday.
Rather than me post any Virtual Photography, fanart, or question… I turn to you, my dear friends. ❤️
If you please, write a singular word (or short phrase) that Josie conjures for you.

#JosephineMontilyet
Thank you everyone for a wonderful response this #MontilyetMonday! ❤️
(We only have 2 more left as a weekly feature! 😭)
More importantly, always remember the *human* element in art, the faces and names, and don’t settle for anything less.

Building upon last week’s celebration of Sylvia Feketekuty, let’s recognize the work of actress Allegra Clark this #MontilyetMonday.
Actors breathe life into a role, a dose of humanity that makes us “believe” in the imagined. A true art.
What are your favorite roles by her? Why?

On a related note…
What are your favorite lines of dialogue from Josie? Or lines *about* Josie? Written text?
It’s all about writing today. 😊

And now, for a few more serious questions! What was your role (or roles) in working on the Dragon Age games?: I've been a writer at BioWare for eleven years now, but Inquisition was my first Dragon Age game. When I came on, I remember a whiteboard with quick descriptions of the core cast. "Diplomat?" was scribbled under the advisors. Our lead writer at the time, David Gaider, told me I could pitch that character, and that was the start of Josephine.
It’s only proper, as #MontilyetMonday enters its concluding month, that we celebrate the actual people who made such a marvelous character possible.
Today, we highlight writer Sylvia Feketekuty, who found our “Diplomat.”

Lastly, I’ve run a project known as #MontilyetMonday since last December, with the aim of a full year duration.
In it, I post (with attribution) older fanart, questions, my commentary, screenshots, interviews, and other materials designed to provide a positive, inclusive way to celebrate Josie. ❤️
Josephine Montilyet, with hair down via mods, stands before a composite scene meant to evoke a dreamlike impression of Antiva through the use of Treviso’s skyline and the Orlesian landscape surrounding The Winter Palace (which is serving as a proxy for Antiva here). The faded backdrop scenes are in black and white.
Memories of home can feel so distant, akin to a dream slipping away upon attempted recollection, but that only makes us hold them tighter to our hearts. #MontilyetMonday.
Today, I ask: In what way did Josephine Montilyet impact your understanding of Antiva or other Antivan characters?
#DragonAge
My dearest friends, #MontilyetMonday is approaching a year (December 22nd!) and will then bid adieu as a weekly feature,
Therefore, I endeavor to ask you if there were any topics you’d like me to highlight? Kindly submit them via the link. 😊

Let’s open up the floor!
Who in Dragon Age is joining Josephine Montilyet to show off their artistic prowess? Dance? Music? Art?
Why not have a delightful talent show held in Val Royeaux, or perhaps the Lighthouse. Or even the Hanged Man!
