Poor Leli thread. It's suffering a painfully slow and lonely death... :(


Here's a screenie that many may not have seen, Leli's reaction when hardened to attempting to convince Dulin Forender that you want to work for Harrowmont after initially working with Bhelen.

"Playing both sides? Very clever."

Dying? *casts heal*

There, problem fixed. :D

Wow, I guess that threesome with Isabela really rubbed off Leliana. She's adopted Isabela's dress code. Pirate Leli! Aaarggghh!! :wub:

@Zjarcal

Merril the Martian? Lol!! :lol:

Lels just took the bandanna as a "souvenir". Isabela was none the wiser. ;)

And Martian Merrill says hewoo!

Her saying that, has to be my main reason why I prefer hardening her.

I know what you mean. I'm sure Arcturus would squee a bit when hearing her say that... J/K!! :P

Not to mention that playing both sides really IS the most clever thing to do when first dealing with Bhelen and Harrowmont. The only thing I'm not sure is if she also says this when doing it the other way around, turning on Harrowmont instead.

Oh interesting. I've only ever heard Sten comment when changing sides, something along the lines of, "There are not enough of you for all these alliances you keep making." lol...

:lol: Stealing from Isabela is fun! Her reactions during the card game if you successfully steal cards from her own hand are highly amusing.

Yes. When you ask her to teach you the duelist specialization she'll respond by saying how she wants to get to know you better and suggest a game of cards.
You have the option of accepting it or suggesting an alternative (read: threesome).

Heh, yeah, I never harden Leli, so I have learned to find ways to be content with the consolation prize.

Anyone else find it funny how this supposedly suave, sophisticated, seductress of a spy reacts if you flirt with her early in the game ie.

"And your fruit? Is it forbidden" (that line is just too funny, I didn't use it in my canon playthrough, because I was RP'ing a nice-guy Cousland, but my bed-hopping bad-girl Amell just had to)

"My fruit? I..err...what? Eh? No I never took the vows. Lets move on."

Haha, but a bit of dissonance 'cause I was expecting a witty one-liner in reply.

 Well if your playing as a dude she does say "Well it's not technically forbidden, but it's not freely given either. Not everyone gets a bite." 
I think that's kinda clever.

As awesome as that line is, it's not very subtle (...or suave...or sophisticated...). I don't really blame her for being a little taken aback by it.



But, yeah, I agree there are several places in the romance where she gets flustered. I personally find it endearing. My take on it is that since the relationship with the PC isn't part of a game, she has to actually open herself up and become a bit vulnerable, which makes her feel a little bit awkward.

Yeah, that's what I was expecting...you should so get that regardless of the gender of your PC. Damn.

Yeah I understand her getting flustered during the actual romance conversations about her feelings and stuff, but in the more flirtatious conversations she should be more with the repartee.

I'm a cheater and use a mod to temporarily harden her. Sorry, I just need to have my Lels/Isabela sammich! B)

Oh, and I love your new avatar (as well as the other characters you've uploaded).

About Leli's flustering, it's cute and endearing. I agree with wicked that she acts like that because unlike the "game", this is genuine. And it's not like she doesn't make playful and suggestive comments eventually.

Nah I like the genuine flustering you get if your playing as a female.  ;)

 How do you know she isn't such good seductress that she's just pretending to be flustered?

Is this the point where we enter the paranoid territory of "Does she truly like me or is it all an act of a bard"?

I must admit that I did feel a bit uneasy when she talks about mastering the game and how she can pretend to be exactly the kind of person her target desires. Made me wonder if the sweet bard wasn't playing me for a fool.

Good thing everything turned out fine in the end, since I doubt my femCousland could handle another betrayal after Howe and Ostagar...

I'm with Master Shiori. Don't buy into the Marjolaine paranoia! :P


@Zjar- Thanks! ^_^ I got a little carried away having fun with chargen mods and decided to make one for every origin.

Gah I want to hurry up and harden her post-Marjolaine, so sick of waiting for the first attempted ambush to trigger. Is it random?
